Sparks of Hope is a fun strategy game that, despite getting bogged down by a lack of difficulty and poorly designed menus, is a blast to play thanks to its neat little puzzles and freeform battles.- CGMagazine

13 Sentinels: Aegis Rim is an excellent game for fans of visual novels or anime-centric titles. Those looking forward to the RPG elements of the game may be a little more disappointed, as while not bad, they don’t come close to the same standard found within the rest of game, both in terms of visual quality and gameplay.- CGMagazine

If you haven’t played Horizon Zero Dawn, or are looking for a reason to experience Aloys story from the beginning, then this is the way forward. A gorgeous remaster that brings all of the charm of the original and all of the graphical deliciousness of the sequel.- CGMagazine

Doom reminded me that games used to just be fun. It’s an polished and incredibly enjoyable game that blends old-school sensibilities with new-school quality. I appreciate a steak, but every now and again, all I want is a delicious, greasy burger. Doom is that burger.- CGMagazine

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Shredder’s Revenge is, for better or worse, a lean green fighting machine. A quintessentially retro presentation makes up for some shortcomings, and adults who grew up on the franchise will love the nostalgia trip.- CGMagazine

Exclusive to the PlayStation 5 version of the game, Control Ultimate Editon features Activity Card integration, a natural fit for an expansive, Metroidvania-style game such as Control, making it great for those wanting to easily track and manage some of the side quests present in the game. Another exclusive feature reserved for PlayStation 5 owner’s of the game is its excellent use of the Dualsense controller.- CGMagazine

Spider-Man Miles Morales is a tightly packed improvement on 2018’s entry. Its engaging characters and fun moment to moment game play combines well with the next-gen visuals and emotionally rich story. If you’re going to pick up only one single-player game to play with your PS5 than Miles is a worthwhile choice.- CGMagazine
