    Blood and Wine is worth the price of admission. The game will handily give you several additional hours of gameplay in the campaign alone, and several more when you’re looking for side quests. A definite must buy in my book.

    Inside is a masterpiece waiting to be played and a worthy successor to Limbo that is just as thought-provoking, if not more. Playing through even one section of the game, the amount of polish and attention to detail is apparent. Not many games stick with me after the credits roll, but Inside is one of those rare few.

    Overwatch is the most detailed and stylised game that you will every play. Blizzard have created one of the most fantastic multiplayer experiences I have played in years.

    A masterpiece that offers you an epic driving experience in an open world environment. It has been refined and greatly improved upon from the previous games especially when it comes to visuals.

    Apart from the lighting, I can’t really complain about anything. The performance is solid and Call of Duty: Modern Warfare has never looked better. Just our of curiosity I went back to the PC version and this remaster looks so much better even on consoles. The developers need to be applauded. For those of you who were wondering if Call of Duty: Modern Warfare Remastered was worth it, I can tell you without a shred of doubt that it definitely is.

    Stardew Valley is incredibly fun, with a myriad of ways to create a unique experience.

    What Remains of Edith Finch reminded me why I love video games. For the past few months, I’ve been in a bit of a slump and haven’t enjoyed too many games. Nothing really clicked with me. What Remains of Edith Finch changed that. I love video games because they have the ability to tell stories no other medium can tell, at least not in the way What Remains of Edith Finch does. I could see this game as a book but I truly don’t believe it would carry the same emotional resonance that it would in that form. The stories are told in such unique ways, and even though this particular title falls into the genre of a “walking simulator”, it manages to be one of the best video games I’ve played in a very long time.

    Fallout 4 is truly a remarkable experience and you need to play it.

    The controls are tight and responsive, and the music is still satisfying to listen to. Both new environments were wonderful additions to the game and fit seamlessly into the map.

    The universe’s mysticism is enthralling, with countess ways to enjoy it. Everything that worked so well in the first game—its fantastic level design, supernatural powers, world building, and lore—are all present with even greater impact. It’s evident that Arkane put a lot of time and energy into designing the entire game to create a truly incredible experience.

    Whether you’re a longtime Doom fanatic or a newcomer, you will love Doom. The brutality of past entries is still here and it’s turned up to eleven. The combat is fast-paced and exhilarating, and it embraces itself as a video game and doesn’t try to make itself something it’s not.

    A great experience and a technical marvel when it comes to the visuals. However, it needs updates to fix balancing and performance issues.

    Overall, Dark Souls III is a truly remarkable experience that I would consider a masterpiece if all of its issues were addressed.

    Kingdom: New Lands is a casual strategy tower defense-like title which should keep you engaged for hours.

    Rocket League brings an extravagant amount of thrill to the couch for you and your friends to relish in a great online experience. It sports a beautifully balanced car list with full customization for each.

    Titanfall 2 is an incredible and exhilarating title that you must play for yourself. With an extremely fun and diverse single-player offering this time around, Respawn Entertainment has knocked it out of the park. Pair it with the satisfying multiplayer and you have a nearly perfect game on your hands.

    In conclusion, Dying Light is a terrifying open-world zombie game with an excellent story, intent on scaring the living hell out of you. The thrill of rotting flesh, blood, guts and quite often my own tears has left me with an ironically refreshing outlook on what a game can be when it truly delivers.

    If you are looking for a good reason to hop back on Forza Horizon 3, this is an amazing one. With some of the most intense racing I’ve experienced in years...for $20 you simply cannot go wrong.

    Just a phenomenal title which stands up well on Xbox One. Despite its 30 FPS presentation which results in feeling like trudging through molasses, the game still features intelligent puzzles and rewards the player when they finally figure it out.

    In conclusion, if you are a casual racer who just wants to have fun and enjoy doing races without too much frustration, Dirt Rally is not for you. It is daunting for even hardcore racers. However, if you are seeking a real rally simulation experience and have strong willpower to overcome all the challenges that this game throws at you, it’s the best game on the market compared to titles like Sébastien Loeb Rally Evo and WRC 5.

    Resident Evil 7 is not only one of the greatest and scariest modern survival horror games in recent memory, but a fantastic return to form for one of Capcom’s greatest series. With photorealistic, repulsively-disgusting environments, interesting and unique characters combined with impactful and visceral combat, Resident Evil 7 is the most fun I’ve had with a Capcom title since the original Dead Rising.

    A great experience that is let down by its voice acting and certain key junctures in the story when the developers just tell us so much that we can guess what's going to happen next. The good news is that these are few and far between and the spectacular final missions make up for everything.

    Overall, Observer is a great game which is let down by its technical side on Xbox One. The game needs more polish but I’m not sure if this will happen because even after months Layers of Fear remained at a suboptimal level. I hope Observer doesn’t have the same fate. Unlike Layers of Fear, Observer doesn’t need that much work so there’s hope.

    DiRT 4 does such a good job of accommodating to every audience possible that I can wholeheartedly recommend this to everyone reading right now. This is a properly well-developed and pure racing experience for all to enjoy.

    Axiom Verge stumbles at points along the way to its end, but the journey through Sudra is excellent. The gameplay mechanics are solid and engaging, the story is intriguing, and the graphics will transport players back to a time where similar games ruled the industry.

    The Ringed City is a totally competent but uninspiring end to the brilliant Souls series, embracing many of its best and several of its worst traits. It’s beautifully macabre and frustratingly tedious, yet isn’t close to being bad enough to take the shine off a wonderful game, offering subtle nods to the series’ past and its probably nonexistent future. The sun finally sets but it will always be praised.

    Codemasters have crafted the best F1 game that you can get on a console. With near perfect gameplay albeit hit and miss visuals, F1 2016 is a must for fans of the genre.
