If you love classic Sonic, you'll love Sonic Mania. Just don't expect it to change the formula. [Oct 2017, p.71]

What initially feels like a celebration of the flow of combat becomes repetitive and frustrating. [Oct 2017, p.70]

A tight, character-focused jaunt, laid on the foundations of PS4's best adventure. Nathan who? [Oct 2017, p.68]

What we can say, however, is how much fun we're currently having. The campaign entertains, classes are a blast, and settings are spectacular. Whether you're experienced in min-maxing Light levels, or you go in fresh looking to shield-smash an 8ft Centurion in the face, you've got a date with Destiny 2. [Oct 2017, p.64]

That's You simply needed more questions to be an all-inclusive riot. [Sept 2017, p.81]

It's frustrating to see Telltale simultaneously at its best, and also just repeating itself. [Sept 2017, p.81]

A charming but ultimately underwhelming experience. [Sept 2017, p.80]

High-octane it ain't, but if you're after something mellow to wallow in, fill your (space) boots. [Sept 2017, p.79]

A speedy, psychedelic, and utterly addictive arcade experience that perfectly blends retro and modern. [Sept 2017, p.78]

The orange smasher returns better than ever in this lovingly-crafted remaster. [Sept 2017, p.76]

Tense and inventive, Black the Fall is great until the late-game difficulty erodes its atmosphere. [Sept 2017, p.75]

There's fun to be had, but the choice and variety are as micro as the machines, limiting your enjoyment. [Sept 2017, p.74]

Looks, sounds, and plays flaming great. Supergiant Games' best title yet, this is a journey worth taking. [Sept 2017, p.72]

If you can, get four friends, four headsets, and enjoy this the way it's meant to be played. [Aug 2017, p.83]

Consistently enchanting. [Aug 2017, p.82]

The game is a little clunky in places, with glitches and a shaky lobby, but that barely detracts from the fun of a perfectly recreated, playable slasher flick. The only drawback is that you NEED seven friends to enjoy this. It works with randoms, but the real joy is playing with people you know: all those howling recriminations, the taunts, cheering the kills. [Aug 2017, p.80]

A beautiful yet flawed game that draws you in with its stylish looks and feels like nothing else. [Aug 2017, p.78]

As far from a traditional one-on-one fighter as can be - and all the better for it. Thumpingly good fun. [Aug 2017, p.70]

Other [puzzlers], unfortunately, rely on easily-missed collectibles or suffer from a lack of explanation. Combine all this with terrible acting(not helped by the script), technical flaws (including a consistently awful frame rate and occasional clipping), and a boring script, and you'll find that Syberia 3 leaves you cold. [July 2017, p.83]

Like its protagonist, you're left feeling Get Even needed a little more love and attention to make its many ideas come together. [July 2017, p.83]

Everything feels designed to make you happy, and even when an answer takes a little while to uncover, the distinctive art style and music make it a joy to wrap yourself up. [July 2017, p.82]
