A low budget but competent remaster of a game that's showing its age – and yet still makes a good argument for a future franchise revival.
An enjoyably distinctive survival game, in terms of gameplay, visuals, and an unusually affecting story.
An adult video game that is neither exploitative nor pretentious, but instead weaves a fun yet incisive tale about all too human characters.
Formulaic but not always predictable, this remains the best of the Tales series and one of the definitive Japanese role-players of the 2000s.
Compared to the classic 2D Super Mario games this is disappointingly anodyne, but it's still competently made platform fun that can be enjoyed by everyone.
A very successful attempt to address real world news events in a video game that always feels realistic but never manipulative.
A competent slab of additional content, that hints at future plot developments, but even committed fans will find this trilogy of DLC sadly inessential.
The game's love for Ghosts ‘N Goblins is obvious but its refusal to cater for anyone but hardcore fans results in a frustrating and tedious slog – especially in story mode.
A frustrating mix of survival game and roguelike, that has absolutely no respect for your time and yet still hides an enthralling and rewarding action adventure within its murky depths.
Rough and ready shoot and loot hilarity that works beautifully in VR, despite the absence of co-op and the original's generous DLC line-up.
The obsessions with realism and old school action don't come at the cost you might imagine, in this tense and well-designed online shooter.
At last the Earth Defense Force series gets a sequel worthy of its early promise, even if there are still a few unwanted bugs left.
A stunning visual achievement and a mediocre Metroidvania but despite that unevenness this is still an affecting interactive journey with real emotional resonance.
It might be missing the name but this is the best Wonder Boy game ever made, updating and expanding the original concepts into a perfect mix of new and old.
More than just XCOM with talking animals, this inventive strategy game has plenty of new ideas of its own – even it's a little lacking in replayability.
Still one of the most original and entertaining video games there's ever been, with a surreal sense of humour that permeates every corner of the gameplay and presentation.
Easily the best Smash Bros. ever made, with a fantastic new story campaign and a near infinite range of characters and options for multiplayer.
It's an improvement on the last game but as a franchise Just Cause is still squandering the majority of its potential with its banal mission design and dull storytelling.
A survival game that isn't out just to punish its players, but to entertain; with an impressive mix of exploration, crafting, and survival horror.
The cleverly-calibrated control system is the main point of interest here, but this is also an entertaining, if somewhat staid, take on VR Super Monkey Ball.
