Overall, the game is fairly average – it lacks game modes such a story mode to help understand the characters that the gamer is playing as and when jumping around there appears to be a delay from input to output, the game appears to be a bit limited to being so small and there is local multiplayer so if you want to play with a friend, then it is doable whereas some random person around the world is not going to happen – lastly, there are so few people that appear to play the game so it is difficult to find a match.

Ray Gigant is a massive let down. Its slow pace at the start doesn’t help its cause but its inability to ever really excite the player or give any enthusiasm what so ever about the games battles or its characters hurts it.

When you battle a boss, frantically whittle its health down to zero, with your party’s health hanging by a thread, it’s hard not to punch the air with delight — it’s just a shame that the rest of the design philosophies within the game weren’t a little more robust, and not solely designed to simply pander and attempt so hard to titillate.

No one ever joined my public game and I never found anyone’s to join. Not the games fault in a way, just means not many people are playing it online. There is nothing about the game that is bad, it’s just a little above alright. Lacking in features and simple, it’s a fine game to play. That’s it. Just fine.

ReCore is an incredibly promising title. Its characters are rich and entertaining, and its combat plays very well for the most part. But, even after an eventual patch to fix the load times on the Xbox One, it will still be half a good game and half an incredibly boring grind.

Nebulous is not a bad game. In fact it’s pretty decent when compared to other games in the genre. But it’s not so amazing as to warrant the $15 price tag and compared to many other games in the genre, it’s rather short. And let’s not forget that the gameplay is a bit boring because of the stop and go style.

The game just wasn’t quite what I expected it to be. It’s also a shame that it’s so short.

Sometimes the gameplay is a little too easy, but most times it is just right and I appreciate that. The story is good for one playthrough and is a fairly easy completion.

Pac-Man Championship Edition 2 still has the fast, smooth and responsive gameplay of the first title in this offshoot series, but it takes a lot of work to get to the meat and potatoes of the game.

What no one can deny is that developers Super Icon have created an original piece that stands out from the crowd. With an endearing 80’s theme, killer soundtrack and considerable amount of modes, Vektor Wars seems like the perfect package. It even has an achievement system! That’s why I was so downhearted to find frame rate slowdown and sporadic bugs that freeze your movement.

Overall the game experience provided by Laser Disco Defenders is fantastic, and will definitely be a fixture on the first page of my Vita’s wall, everything just fits together perfectly. It is incredibly challenging whilst remaining fun.

Dear Esther: Landmark Edition is an experience that has held my imagination for days after finishing it. It is beautiful yet haunting, sad yet inspiring. It may be short, but it is perfectly paced, and you owe it to yourself to experience this game, it will leave you breathless.

The gameplay will test your patience at times but if you sick with it, it can feel immensely satisfying.

I will admit that Devouring Stars isn’t going to be the most advanced or mechanically deep RTS you would ever play, but simply for what it does it does it incredibly well. The game has an overall high level of polish and I would easily recommend anyone picking it up.

Overall it’s well worth revisiting Fortune City on your PS4.

It’s a very solid game that will challenge you but it’s not cheap or unfair.

Quite simply, Madden NFL 17 is the best Madden game to date. The adjustments in the offensive and defensive gameplay mechanics really improve the realism and enjoyment of the game.

Less experienced players can still enjoy Pure Chess and will find loads here to challenge them and advance their game, but I think it’s a shame that there really isn’t anything outside of chess in itself that really adds interest.

HTR+ Slot Car Simulation is fun, easy to look at and features moderate depth. There are multiple modes to choose from and allows you to create even more content with the track editor. It will take you some time to unlock all the vehicles and parts for customisation but if you can deal with the repetitive soundtrack and grinding the same courses your all set.

Unfortunately, the some of what made plagued 3D platformers in the 90s is still around in the form of clunky controls and a badly positioned camera. If you want a game that takes you back to the hay day of the 3D platformer, then I would suggest giving this game a chance.

The game looks alright, but not great and the music in the game is fairly forgettable. The game handles the Kinect controls well enough to be fun for a while but probably won’t be on any Game of the Year lists.

Hatsune Miku: Project Diva X plays it very safe, but despite its familiarity, it does more than enough to justify the jump to the PlayStation 4 hardware.

The gameplay mechanics alone were refreshing, but I honestly can’t recommend the game if you’re looking for something substantial. Calendula feels like a game that on the outside is full of ideas, but the story lacks the detail to be impactful.

It’s a real shame RIVE suffered technical issues, because if it didn’t, I would have loved this game and been willing to give it a high score. I just can’t score it high in its current state, it would be a disservice to you the reader, no matter how much I would love it if it hadn’t been for its issues.

Despite never particularly excelling, Bear With Me is a perfectly satisfying little adventure game. Point and click fans who’ve been starved off quality titles of late will be well entertained for the brief period it lasts, and future episodes will hopefully be a bit more expansive as the action relocates from Amber’s house to the streets of Paper City.

Refunct seems to be the beginning of something great and in its current state it seems to be lacking a little individuality. Refunct does have some really solid aspects, the player movement and flow is honestly enjoyable. Multiple jumps all flow naturally into one another supported with a smooth pull up mechanic to let you reach higher ledges.

I have thoroughly enjoyed playing the game as well as watching it being played.

What could have been the next generation of 4X space simulators has instead rested on the laurels that made the original so brilliant back in 1993. The problem is many others inspired by the groundwork laid by Master of Orion have progressed, to create innovative, enhanced experience, overall leaving us with a good reboot that had the potential to be something more.
