A near miss in so many regards, Remember Me's lack of ambition is what ultimately hobbles it - with the balls to go bigger on some of its more original concepts, this could have been something truly special. [Issue#232, p.68]- Play UK

It will live with us. Here, finally, is a videogame that will live with us. There are inconsistencies here and there, some lulls in its gameplay, but when The Last Of Us is good (winter), it's better than anything else this gen - we do not say that lightly. [Issue#232, p.62]- Play UK

For anyone who yearns for the days of Knight Rider, new-wave, big hair and cyborg arms, Blood Dragon is an essential bit of bizarre nostalgia. [Issue#231, p.85]- Play UK

It's challenging, brutal and rewarding, so self-professed hardcore gamers should be all over this noise. [Issue#231, p.84]- Play UK

A joy to play. A huge story mode, rock-hard trials and great online will keep players occupied for a long time. [Issue#231, p.80]- Play UK

Nothing can quite prepare you for what it's like to actually play Deadly Premonition. [Issue#231, p.78]- Play UK

A gaming experience that is truly unlike any other, The Walking Dead should be required playing for anyone who considers themselves a fan of our favourite medium. [Issue#231, p.76]- Play UK

Genuinely one of the worst games we've ever played. [Issue#231, p.74]- Play UK

Ugly and full of bugs, but also quite fun and possessing some good ideas - an interesting start for an MMO. [Issue#231, p.73]- Play UK

Despite a few issues Star Trek: The Video Game turns out to be a surprising amount of fun. [Issue#231, p.72]- Play UK

A wonderful treat for comic book fans and a pretty decent fighting game to boot. [Issue#231, p.70]- Play UK

A humdrum shooter that runs on unabashed machismo and is completely devoid of imagination. [Issue#231, p.68]- Play UK

The same slightly wonky fun we had in the first one, and we mean the exact damn same. [Issue#231, p.66]- Play UK

Wonderfully realised, atmospheric environments and uninspired, slightly dull shooting combine to create a game just above average. [Issue#231, p.62]- Play UK

A great add-on with an entirely new character to learn, Vergil's Downfall might not set the world alight with storytelling or environmental design, but the core combat is still so fantastic that this is well worth a look. [Issue#230, p.79]- Play UK

Stunning to look at, but the experience within its gorgeously rendered environments ultimately lacks substance. [Issue#230, p.76]- Play UK

One of those rare games that speaks to the player on a personal, emotional level with a thought-provoking, mature storyline set in one of the most amazing worlds conceived in a game. Plus, it's a wonderful FPS with deep, tactical combat. Essential. [Issue#230, p.66]- Play UK

Does a good job of encapsulating the unique feel of Japanese horror, but only the most dedicated fans of the genre will persevere through the excessive description and dull mechanics in order to unlock every ending here. [Issue#229, p.83]- Play UK

It's messy, and it gets repetitive too. For some, it'll just be headache-inducing. But for those who yearn for quirkiness, this could become a cult hit. [Issue#229, p.82]- Play UK

For some, the idea of fighting through repetitive levels will be just that: a slog. [Issue#229, p.82]- Play UK

Unpretentious in the extreme, comical by accident, irritating when it wants to be. [Issue#229, p.80]- Play UK

It's not as good as other Double Fine efforts like Stacking and Costume Quest, but there's enough character and intrigue in The Cave to see you past the iffy platforming and sometimes dull puzzles. [Issue#229, p.79]- Play UK

A totally unnecessary expansion that actually adds very little. [Issue#229, p.78]- Play UK
