    An old game that's still beautiful underneath, despite its aging skin. [Issue#259, p.74]

    Pretty much the perfect way to get ready to rise up in the upcoming Street Fighter V. [Issue#259, p.72]

    It feels like the franchise does need a rethink. [Issue#259, p.70]

    Bungie seems to be slowly turning Destiny into the game it always had the potential to be. [Issue#258, p.74]

    A well-written love letter to the classic games of the Eighties that blends a variety of classic platformers into a game that works regardless of any nostalgia. We dig it. [Issue#258, p.72]

    An emotionally impactful tale that's enhanced by the game's commitment to its thematic core of memory, but one that can get frustrating due to its rather tricky puzzles. [Issue#258, p.71]

    The action sequences are some of the best on PS4 and William Blazkowicz is still a badass. [Issue#258, p.68]

    Graphically stunning, dynamically awesome, aurally beautiful. This is what Project Cars could have been if pest control had done a better job exterminating those pesky bugs. [Issue#258, p.66]

    Beneath the lavish art style and the high quality production..., Broken Age ends up feeling rather empty and desolate. [Issue#257, p.72]

    • 73 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    It's problems lie in design, though - the largely empty world seems almost superfluous and you'll come away from each encounter triumphant, but lacking any sort of reward. [Issue#257, p.70]

    China's overall simplicity and blandness means you won't be returning soon. [Issue#257, p.68]

    In a series first, this is actually an accomplished fighter as well as being a gruesome theater of punishment. [Issue#257, p.66]

    Quality like this doesn't tend to arrive until way later in a generation, so we doff our caps to the team at CDPR for breaking tradition to deliver one of the best RPGs we've ever played. [Issue#247, p.60]

    A passable and unspectacular campaign is unlikely to win any new fans, but Hardline's fresh take on Battlefield multiplayer makes it worth a shot. [Issue#256, p.68]

    The hype is real - From Software did not disappoint. Bloodborne is amazing, and easily the best triple-A exclusive on PS4 so far. Come have a horrible time in Yharnam with us. [Issue#256, p.65]

    The definitive version of a good fighting game, but the limited visual upgrades for PS4 fall way short of our expectations. [Issue#254, p.68]

    With the right people on your side, Evolve can be a surprising blast. However, get lumped with utter idiots, or the shoddy AI, and it quickly becomes very, very frustrating. [Issue#254, p.66]

    With some crazy fun online elements and a badass sense of actual achievement, Dying Light is the zombie game we've been working for. Just mute those terrible voices. [Issue#254, p.64]

    Excelling in so many aspects, from its eye-popping visual style and electronic soundtrack, through to its perfectly balanced twin-stick action and smart, surprising story, Wrong Number lives up to the legacy of the original. We’d go so far as to say it’s essential.

    Even a couple of odd design decisions don't get in the way of the high-octane thrills here, thankfully. [Issue#253, p.70]

    An excellent adaptation that captures the core elements that has made its source material so successful and one that lays strong foundations for the episodes to come. [Issue#253, p.68]

    If it had flawless platforming, reactive bosses, and a tighter difficulty curve, then we'd be head-over-heels for Teslagrad, but as it is, it's just a good little puzzle platformer that often frustrates. [Issue#253, p.66]

    A fair remaster of a classic, Resident Evil is a game that holds up pretty well, but one that those not nostalgic enough likely won't enjoy as much as returning STARS veterans will. [Issue#253, p.64]
