Put aside any misconceptions you may have about the idea of re-selling old games in shinier coats, this is no lazy rehash and it was always a dang fine game to boot!

A slow start, but Hero in Residence ends on a high note with an interesting new enemy and a very funny new character.

If you can push through some frustrating moments during the opening hour, Black The Fall offers challenging puzzles with a thought-provoking narrative.

Just a little bit of handholding wouldn’t have gone amiss, but spend some time working out what GoNNER is about and you’ll find a dark yet warm hearted bullet ballet.

Whilst it may not be the best party game on the market, it's still fun for the time you'll spend playing it.

God Wars: Future Past features basic gameplay and simplistic visuals but an intriguing, well told story based around Japanese folklore that makes it a worthwhile experience.

RPG Maker FES really wants you to make the games you want, but doesn’t want to help you out in any way.

Chess will always be chess, but with its glorious presentation and wealth of options, Chess Ultra is a Queen in a genre filled with Pawns.

Deemo is a worthy addition to the Vita’s growing collection of music games.

A quiz game that does little to hold your attention after the initial impressions.

This isn't a bad game, but there are some omissions that have been with the series forever which are strangely missing.

Tokyo Xanadu is basically Falcom trying to create a Persona like game with their own signature flavour and a pretty damn good experience overall.

It's a real pleasure to play through three games that defined a console, and seeing Crash on PS4 is great. He's finally home, and right where he should be.

Valkyria Revolution is an average action RPG with some strategy elements that is held back by way too many issues and only really has its soundtrack working in its favour.

There're some great ideas in Perception, and with an interesting protagonist and some great voice acting, there's a lot to enjoy, even if it is a bit too easy.

A few technical issues aside, this is a great expansion that will please fans of the original Morrowind, as well as allowing new players to finally experience Vvardenfell for themselves.

Ever Oasis is basically a Harvest Moon-esque game with semi-open world roaming and Zelda-like dungeons. It’s nice, aesthetically and thematically, with lovely solid chibi style characters and some wonderfully twee music that I just can’t stop humming. It falls down somewhat with the adventuring, what with the AI issues and slightly simplistic combat, but the town management side of things can really get its hooks into you. There’s a serious buzz to be had whenever your Oasis gets a big transformation. This is a game that wants to make you smile, and it will do just that; just don’t expect a champagne supernova.

Get Even tries to do too much, but rather than getting it wrong, it succeeds on many different levels. It blends styles within the first-person genre seamlessly, tells an ambitious story without tripping over itself, manages to scare you, and connect with you emotionally. The shooting is satisfying and exhilarating thanks to some smart enemy AI, and the Cornergun is a great weapon to use. I enjoyed Get Even a great deal; it takes you to a place you weren’t prepared for, and whether you’re happy about that or not, there’s no denying that this is a unique and fantastic video game you should all play.

Randall is buggy, loose, and unresponsive, but worst of all a completely boring platformer that isn’t worth your time.

With its fun gameplay and interesting take on the online shooter genre, Crossout is a decent idea that sadly lacks depth.

With two career modes and a buttload of customisation options, combined with exciting racing at any level, MotoGP ‘17 is another success for the series.

Nex Machina is shoot-em-up kings Housemarque's latest game, and it might just be their best. A top-down Resogun that takes all that was good from that, improves on it and then adds so much more. Tight and responsive controls and great visuals make up for some exhilarating action.

It’s not feature rich, but Astro Duel Deluxe is another title making excellent use of Nintendo’s console vision.

There's no denying Tekken 7 is one of the best fighters around, and once the online servers are fixed, it has the potential to be the best fighters out there.

Much better than the first, episode two features better pacing and more time being given to the supporting characters. I'm now excited to see where things go for the series.

The fighting game that everyone can play, ARMS is Nintendo multiplayer gaming at its best.

Despite some issues that will turn off many regular gamers, MXGP3 makes great use of the official licensing and will certainly please fans of the sport.

The Town of Light is a powerful experience and you’ll certainly be affected by its story. There are a few issues with music breaks and some of the things you’ll see may provide too upsetting, but overall you’ll never forget your time in Volterra.
