    99Vidas appeals to a very specific market and manages to accurately recreate the scrolling beat ‘em ups of yesteryear, both positive and negative. If you have fond memories of these kinds of games this will fill a space for you, but wont necessarily leave you satisfied. I really like the games style and overall sense of fun, but in aping the games of the past it has failed to offer an enjoyable modern experience.

    Star Ocean: The Last Hope – 4K & Full HD Remaster brings a last gen game almost up to modern graphical standards and for a reasonable price. There is a lot of game here and it's not without its good points but the basic structure hasn't been improved which makes this a hard one to recommend.

    We really like Son of Scoregasm. It's one of the best twin-stick shooters on PSN and has some excellently designed gameplay mechanics. Unfortunately, the game's difficulty eventually leads to frustration and spoils the party a little.

    Boiling Bolt is a very ordinary PC shoot 'em up ported to PS4. Badly.

    Let Them Come is an easy game to like with a simple, but strong, idea of blasting aliens out of a corridor. The visual flair and humour really make this an enjoyable game to play. Unfortunately the punishing bosses make for a harsh difficulty curve which will bring many up short. Whilst it may not be the longest of games, what is here is bags of fun.

    Despite a decent setting and story the actual act of playing Black Mirror just isn’t enjoyable. As a result the many flaws stand out all the more for it. For adventure game fans this is maybe one you’d want to look into if it ever goes on sale, but for anyone else there are far better places to start your adventure.

    DOOM VFR makes its way to PSVR but doesn't do so without compromise. The graphics are great and it certainly feels like DOOM but every controller option has a downside and it feels like it's been dumbed-down to compensate.

    Slayaway Camp: Butcher's Cut offers a wealth of content for those who like puzzles. The '80s horror film aesthetic adds a lot of character to the huge amount of cleverly built levels but some may find it a little too repetitive before they reach the end.

    Equal parts shoot 'em up and rogue-lite, Sky Force Reloaded feels like a deluxe version of the previous game and that's no bad thing at all but don't expect anything revolutionary this time around.

    Big Ant have managed to enhance last year's effort with some official licensing and, whilst the presentation feels familiar, the player animations look improved and authentic. Fielding remains something of a worry but the batting and bowling experience remains thoroughly engaging and satisfying to succeed at.

    Road Rage is a lemon. Execution is poor at almost every step with only the bike handling coming out with any positives. Even for the budget price tag, I can't recommend this faltering, frustrating ride.

    Sonic Forces may have impressive elements such as high-speed spectacle and graphical fidelity, but it completely falls flat in just about every other area. It fails to better 2011's Generations and to learn from past mistakes in the franchise. Stick with Mania.

    Max: The Curse of Brotherhood offers a charming adventure for those looking for a puzzle based platformer that is neither too difficult or condescendingly easy, nor too brief or overly long. The physics engine may throw up the odd problem but the checkpoints are forgiving enough to not cause too much concern.

    LEGO Marvel Superheroes 2 is one of the better LEGO games. The range of characters available is staggering and the attention to detail is to be applauded. Whilst the range of actions and movement abilities may cause problems for younger players, the ever present co-op is a wonderful addition to help younger players out.

    On the road, where it matters, Payback is the most fun we've had with a Need for Speed game in a long time and while there are some questionable design choices and shady things going on regarding player progression and customisation, the developers do seem to be reacting to the negative feedback.

    Demon Gaze II offers a friendlier introduction to the first person dungeon crawler than most. More story and less customisation will upset some but the colourful characters and enjoyable gameplay loop will win over new players.

    Ace of Seafood isn’t a great game, but it is sort of ok. There is enough absurd action here to ensure the game doesn’t get boring, and it is particularly interesting to watch. However the low quality graphics and poor controls mean that more often than not this is a game which isn’t all that enjoyable to actually play.

    Call of Duty: WWII trades on the familiar and, whilst its campaign suffers from some weak characters and a few safe bets, the multiplayer component remains compelling and rewarding. It's a throwback rather than a revolution but it's still fun. There's not a lot here that's new but you'll be occupied for another year, providing you haven't already tapped out.

    Cat Quest is a good game which is easy to pick up and play offering an enjoyable and idiosyncratic cat based RPG. It has done a great job of offering a streamlined humourous RPG Which is accessible for all. Where it falls down is when the simplicity goes too far, resulting in samey combat and repetitive quest structures. But these faults are easily overlooked as the rest of the game is so darned cute and fun to play.

    The fact that Sony allowed this to be on PSN, the fact that the developer thought he deserved money rather than punches for it and the fact that games media in general haven't told you this is awful should tell you something about the low esteem gamers are held in these days.

    The Count Lucanor is a delightfully quirky game. The excellently designed, and odd, characters make for gentle scares throughout, and some memorable set pieces. With a great script and some interesting puzzles there is a lot to like here. It is only let down by some technical issues, and whilst this stops the game scoring higher, it remains great fun to play.

    Small worries aside, Wuppo's character and style has managed to disarm me with some cheeky writing and a surprisingly dense world. The pace does bog down in two particular parts but I was intrigued enough to persevere. Combat is engaging and exploration is usually rewarding. This is a staggering effort from such a small team and their passion shows. This is very, very well crafted.

    It's not that Bubsy is terrible, it's that it never ever tries to be anything other than average. For this kind of price, we expect so much more.

    Oure is a mixed bag of a game. The overall experience of playing it is a tug of war between beautiful dreamy vistas and frustrating controls and camera issues. If you're willing to just go with the flow and get used to these issues there is a lot to like here, but if you get frustrated by imprecise controls this isn't for you.

    .hack//G.U. Last Recode is a generous package with the three original PS2 episodes plus a new closing chapter. The modern improvements help make it more palatable for today's tastes but there is no doubt that this still looks and plays like an old game. How much of a negative that is will depend on the player.

    Part driving game, part menial labour simulator, Mudrunners may well be the least fun we've had on our PS4. This isn't a game that sends the mud flying everywhere, it's one where the mud bogs you down until you feel like you are drowning in it. However, if you're looking for a challenging trucking simulator that is genuinely different, this may be well up your street. Do your research before you buy though.

    Butter & Friends: Babysitter Sim is a throwaway party game. As a solo experience it doesn't really have any legs, but if you've got friends who'll be willing to play locally with you, there is fun to be had here.

    This is the Jackbox team doing exactly what they always do but if you can get a few players involved, a good time is pretty much guaranteed.

    Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus brings together great storytelling with satisfying gun play in a unique package. You'll come for the Nazi killing but stay for the likeable characters and scenes that will constantly surprise you.

    Assassin’s Creed Origins manages to breathe new life into an old franchise. By going back in time it has found a way to reinvent itself and move forward. The shift to a more action RPG style suits the game well, but the reduced emphasis on stealth may well upset some.
