Ashen tries too hard and not hard enough to be both a Dark Souls clone and something different, and loses a lot in the process.- CGMagazine

While Blossom Tales: The Sleeping King does skew a little too close to its inspirations in places and it can be a bit too easy, it still gives players a delightful, lively world filled with secrets and silly characters.- CGMagazine

Altdeus Beyond Chronos might feel like a big change for VR gamers as a visual novel but pays off with a worthwhile sci-fi mech story with plenty of anime energy.- CGMagazine

WWE 2K22 is a step in the right direction, with a lot of content and a lot of fun to be had. A far from perfect title loaded with nostalgia, and too many game modes can be overwhelming. An easy recommend for wrestling fans, and newcomers.- CGMagazine

Souldiers is recommendable to anyone seeking a MASSIVE retro styled challenge with gorgeous 16-bit graphics, but the challenge or length of the adventure may deter the more casual player, or fans seeking a dynamic story.- CGMagazine

Rock Band 4 is definitely a great game for all the rock stars out there. Bands who have been just itching to get back into the swing of the living room world tour will be happy to see that their medium has not changed all that much, but has added small things to reinvigorate the series.- CGMagazine

While unlikely to ever eclipse the popularity of games starring his do-gooder counterpart—lo, art imitates life—Wario's series of wacky microgames nevertheless exudes such raw charisma and fun factor that it's hard not to root for him.- CGMagazine

RIGS: Mechanized Combat League offers some of the only multiplayer available at the PSVR launch, but the shallow gameplay and lack of substantial content make it a tough sell at full sticker price.- CGMagazine

Under Defeat (2025) is a remaster of the expertly crafted 2005 vertical shooter, offering tight gameplay, striking art, infectious music, and shmup-friendly extras that make its high difficulty rewarding and replayable.- CGMagazine

While Immortal Redneck doesn't necessarily bring anything new to the table, it does successfully combine the speed of old-school FPS like Unreal Tournament and Quake with roguelike elements to make a pretty fun little game worth your time if you don't mind a little grind.- CGMagazine

As interesting as exploring the ramifications of [the main character’s] time-manipulation abilities are here, the most resounding moments are those centred on less fantastic issues.- CGMagazine
