    • tbd Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Its gameplay isn't breaking any moulds, but the presentation makes it well worth recommending. [Feb 2015, p.83]
    • Official Xbox Magazine UK
    • tbd Metascore
    • 30 Critic Score
    One to avoid, we think - though the creepy trailer, with a father and his two dead-eyed sons is worth watching. It's like something out of Twin Peaks. [Feb 2015, p.83]
    • Official Xbox Magazine UK
    • tbd Metascore
    • 30 Critic Score
    Too much murder, not enough '80s hair. [March 2015, p.83]
    • Official Xbox Magazine UK
    • tbd Metascore
    • 40 Critic Score
    An interesting twist, executed poorly. [March 2015, p.86]
    • Official Xbox Magazine UK
    • tbd Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Plays to Sunset Overdrive's obvious strengths while offering a few neat surprises along the way. [June 2015, p.91]
    • Official Xbox Magazine UK
    • tbd Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    It's made more entertaining thanks to Portal soundbites. [Aug 2015, p.87]
    • Official Xbox Magazine UK
    • tbd Metascore
    • 20 Critic Score
    This is just a huge missed-steak. [Aug 2015, p.93]
    • Official Xbox Magazine UK
    • tbd Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    A fine idea, paradoxically lacking in execution. [Aug 2015, p.97]
    • Official Xbox Magazine UK
    • tbd Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    Only the most patient and self-flagellating need apply. [Sept 2015, p.108]
    • Official Xbox Magazine UK
    • tbd Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    A short but sweet adventure title with a likeable deep-sea protagonist. Similar to an animated family movie, it possesses buckets of humour and spades of heart.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    A well-made and exceptionally pretty poker game, but we're not entirely convinced Pure Hold'em's show-stopping looks justify the price of entry alone.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 90 Critic Score
    On the surface this might look like just another pixellated roguelike, but enter the nightmarish rabbit hole and you'll find a mastery of the genre that is relentlessly addictive. [Oct 2015, p.84]
    • Official Xbox Magazine UK
    • tbd Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    A joyous diversion while it lasts. [Nov 2015, p.74]
    • Official Xbox Magazine UK
    • tbd Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    If you can stomach a few setbacks, this is funny, intriguing, caustic and rewarding. [Nov 2015, p.75]
    • Official Xbox Magazine UK
    • tbd Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Another flawed piece of DLC for Inquisition, but one with redeeming features for the right fans. [Nov 2015, p.88]
    • Official Xbox Magazine UK
    • tbd Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    It contains great ideas, like the obstacle courses, that we would have liked to seen fleshed out. [Dec 2015, p.87]
    • Official Xbox Magazine UK
    • tbd Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Trespasser has a little more sentiment than substance, but it's still a good last outing for your Inquisitor. [Dec 2015, p.91]
    • Official Xbox Magazine UK
    • tbd Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Wicked and mean-spirited it may be, but you'd have to dig deep to find a more generous DLC offering than this. [Dec 2015, p.91]
    • Official Xbox Magazine UK
    • tbd Metascore
    • 40 Critic Score
    Dying is more annoying than frightening. [Christmas 2015, p.83]
    • Official Xbox Magazine UK
    • tbd Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Well-suited to a series so heavily reliant on talking yourself out of trouble. [Jan 2016, p.79]
    • Official Xbox Magazine UK
    • tbd Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Behind its veil of twee anime and flippant dialogue lurks fighting of considerable depth, and yet surprising accessibility. And acquired taste, but one to savour all the same. [Jan 2016, p.84]
    • Official Xbox Magazine UK
    • tbd Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Well worth smashing and grabbing. [Jan 2016, p.85]
    • Official Xbox Magazine UK
    • tbd Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Better suited to playing on your phone waiting for a bus than buying an Xbox for. [Jan 2016, p.85]
    • Official Xbox Magazine UK
    • tbd Metascore
    • 30 Critic Score
    One or two half-decent gags aside, Deadpool is a dreary, lumpen, vapid and altogether forgettable action game with an exasperatingly garrulous lead. [Feb 2016, p.85]
    • Official Xbox Magazine UK
    • tbd Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    It's short but engaging, with some fiendish platforming segments, and introduces enough new concepts as you snake up the Solar System to keep you spinning on your axis. [Feb 2016, p.87]
    • Official Xbox Magazine UK
    • tbd Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    A huge, beautiful zone to play in, but it offers little new and the quests are merely decent. [Feb 2016, p.89]
    • Official Xbox Magazine UK
    • tbd Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Light on action and adrenaline but filled with atmosphere, this isn't your typical Xbox game - and all the more powerful for it. A luxury purchase, but an experience to savour. [March 2016, p.77]
    • Official Xbox Magazine UK
    • tbd Metascore
    • 40 Critic Score
    Under-featured and poorly conceived, this won't appeal to fans of the Warriors games, while Arslan fans [Arsheads?] are better off rewatching the original anime series. [Apr 2016, p.79]
    • Official Xbox Magazine UK
    • tbd Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    About half a good map pack, Awakening offers little innovation from what's already available. [Apr 2016, p.93]
    • Official Xbox Magazine UK
    • tbd Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    A kracking kollection of new kontent for a fine fighting game. Kommendable! [May 2016, p.88]
