Neon White is intuitive and offers quick and "flashy" demon slaughter for just over a dozen hours.

Modern Warfare 3 doesn't reinvent gunpowder, but sticks to the recipe of the previous games in the series. With a decent story and good multiplayer it's a game worth playing, but the lack of willingness to add improvements in gameplay show a laziness often found in a complacent game series.

What Remains of Edith Finch stands proud among its contemporaries, but still manages to stand out by constantly twisting and changing its looks and mechanics.

FromSoftware draws inspiration from its best games to create something wholly new, with a refined and polished combat system, some spectacular boss fights and an interesting approach to character development. The game has some issues with replayability, but is perhaps the developer’s strongest title in terms of a single playthrough.

The PC version of Assassins Creed: Brotherhood offers updated graphics and reduced loading times to give you the ultimate assassin experience. Relive 16th century Rome like never before and lose yourself in this epic action game. Rome has never been this beautiful.

I wont be suprised if this game boosts the Wii U sales. Mario Kart 8 is as much fun as Mario Kart games have always been, but never before has the world seen a more beautiful game in the Mario series. The innovation that lets players drive upside down doesn't really influence the experience, but this game is sure to provide hours of joy.

NHL 11 is not only the ultimate hockey game, it's the ultimate sports game. EA Sports gives us the authentic feel of the NHL in a game where you are the star. It's no doubt in my mind that this is the sports game of the year 2010.

The combination of the weird and beautiful storytelling and world-building from Yoko Taro, and the combat and flow from Platinum Games, is nothing short of great. Stellar, fast-paced combat, interesting universe and story, and compelling characters makes NieR: Automata something truly special.

It Takes Two is a charming, playful, tight, and extremely varied platformer which manages to stay fresh hour after hour, in a way few other games can.

Monster Hunter Wilds has so much to focus on, and so many different paths to the goal. It only gets repetitive and boring if you let it. There's a whole, lush, living world at your feet. Some of my fondest gaming memories, and the coolest battles I've ever had, have happened in this particular game. It's as close to a top score as you can get. We're only a few weeks into February, but I'm 100% sure that this will be a top 3 game for me this year at the very least.

Far Cry 3 is impressive on all levels. The island pours over with insanity, helped along by a great cast of friends and foes. Graphically stunning, and a candidate for Game of the Year-awards.

Ratchet and Clank Rift Apart is a beautiful and action packed adventure, but which sadly leaves its characters' personalities and fun, snarky comments behind in favour of more shooting, strafing, and a more sanitized, Disney-like story.

With its twisted take on the animal kingdom and a haunting soundscape, Animal Well is a truly atmospheric masterpiece. Its puzzles are just intricate enough, with fun revelations aplenty. The game's trial-and-error nature makes trawling through the post-game kind of a drag though. And seriously, screw that ghost dog.

The classic tactics game returns, with many improvements to gameplay, and stellar voice acting that lifts the experience to new levels.

Dishonored 2 is exactly what a sequel should be: a marked improvement on its predecessor in every relevant way. The level design is an explosion of creativity where every measure is taken to ensure that we can do things exactly the way we want.

Divinity: Original Sin never ceases to impress. Be it the deep role-play mechanics, the marvelous quest structure, the beautiful soundtrack or the gorgeous visuals, the Enhanced Edition feels like the complete package. With inclusion of voice acting and the possibility of split-screen gaming with a friend, the title is a must-have for console RPG enthusiasts.

Horizon Forbidden West fails to live up to its predecessor in just about every way. While the world and its many new machines are stunning, the experience is bogged down with confusing design choices and variation for the sake of variation - making Aloy's newest adventure one to forget.

The almost overabundance of content, interesting characters and clever, addictive combat make this threefold saga the very best that the Fire Emblem series has to offer.

NHL 11 is not only the ultimate hockey game, it's the ultimate sports game. EA Sports gives us the authentic feel of the NHL in a game where you are the star. It's no doubt in my mind that this is the sports game of the year 2010.

Playing Deathloop is a joy in almost every way. Arkane Studios has successfully built upon what made their earlier games good and made something that feel both unique and stylish.

Ori and the Blind Forest is a stunningly beautiful game that manages to live up to its appearance with brilliant and memorable gameplay.

The Enhanced Edition improves upon an already excellent game and brilliantly spreads the Witcher gospel to Xbox-owners. The dark and brutal adventures of Geralt are still marvelous and everyone who hasn't played Witcher 2, but enjoys an occasional RPG, should prepare themselves for an exciting and seductive experience.

Kingdom Come: Deliverance II is a masterpiece, and one of the most impressive role playing games ever made.

Metroid Dread is nerve wrecking, intense and immensely satisfying.

In this latest installment of the series you get a story that's even darker than before. A lot of hard moral dilemmas are thrown at you, and you see the group you've come to know as a family falling apart. This episode also brings more puzzle elements than before, making it feel more like a traditional adventure game than an interactive graphic novel.

Quotation forthcoming.

Apex Legends has moved the boundaries for what we can expect in the battle royale genre.

Another utterly stunning platformer from the team that brought you Gris. The sometimes challenging combat does feel out of place, but the engaging visuals, music, and characters are more than enough to make Neva a worthwhile experience.
