Only the most patient and self-flagellating need apply. [Sept 2015, p.108]

By turns scrappy, hilarious, wearying and completely barmy. [Sept 2015, p.105]

The best version of a still great online co-op shooter. [Sept 2015, p.104]

At worst frustrating, usually just reminiscent of better, more innovative platformers. [Sept 2015, p.99]

One of the best indie titles since Limbo. [Sept 2015, p.98]

A commendably well crafted re-release that doesn't rest on its laurels. [Sept 2015, p.96]

Despite a few niggles you'd be hard pressed to be disappointed by this. With such a fun premise and carefully thought out design, it's more likely to sneak up and surprise you with how good it is.

Clever cloning leads to some of the most inventive puzzles we've seen in a long time. Master its mad logic, and you'll find an excellent puzzle platformer. A really pleasant surprise.

Fans might wonder why they should accept all these missing features for an inconsistent visual update. Newcomers will be impressed by the lack of loading screens and rewarding gameplay, but series veterans who’ve played PGA Tour 14 will never crave Xbox 360 backwards compatibility more.

Adds four decent new maps and the chance to see Bruce Campbell firing John Malkovich. [Aug 2015, p.97]

A fine idea, paradoxically lacking in execution. [Aug 2015, p.97]

A generous expansion in both content and spirit. [Aug 2015, p.96]

This is just a huge missed-steak. [Aug 2015, p.93]

Ride only really comes alive when you're the only person on the tarmac. [Aug 2015, p.93]

Often entertaining but occasionally a bit of a slog. [Aug 2015, p.90]

It's made more entertaining thanks to Portal soundbites. [Aug 2015, p.87]

An essential buy for any Xbox fight fan. [Aug 2015, p.82]

Too meandering and dull to work as a twitchy arcade game, Spectra is saved from the ignominy of an even lower score by its sparkling soundtrack. A treat for the ears, then, but little more.

The core experience is deep and 60fps racing is welcome, but with many staple features absent and little sense of true excitement, this isn't a great new-gen debut.

Caught in the right light and this glitters like a racing visor in the sun, but it’s very similar to last year’s game. Ultimately only worth it if you’ve spent years out - and haven’t picked up stablemate, Ride.

Vast, occasionally beautiful, and absolutely loaded down with things to do, but rarely as magical as the numbered Scrolls games. Survive the first few hours and it's a memorable adventure.

It’s the realisation of a vision Rocksteady has been working towards since 2009. Now that gaming tech has finally caught up, we’ve been given the swansong the Dark Knight deserves.

Another generous helping of horror. Occasionally frustrating, but more often tense, inventive and satisfying. [July 2015, p.84]

A gripping platformer that cajoles you into platforming amazing feats of dexterity. [July 2015, p.76]

Another intense Blazkowicz adventure - but a little over familiar. [July 2015, p.74]

With a bit of selective breeding Massive Chalice could be a marvel - as it stands, it’s a charmingly weird, if slightly too slim, take on the XCOM formula.

Fertile with good ideas, but most of them fail to bloom to their full potential thanks to a wonky money system that slows the pace of progression down to that of a clapped-out tractor.

In 60 minutes, this will change you from tentative, stodgy muppet to an all-round offensive terror. A terrifically balanced platformer that'll coax out the perfectionist speedrunner in us all.
