Despite some minor technical flaws and a few clumsy moments, Metrico is a smart and rewarding experience that uses PS Vita's features brilliantly. [Oct 2014, p.94]- Playstation Official Magazine UK

Impeccable visuals and some slick, considered design make it one of PS VR's most impressive. [Dec 2016, p.87]- Playstation Official Magazine UK

Barring the occasional niggle, this is a fantastically imaginative return. It brings an addictive appeal that'll have you scratching the musical itch long after you've unlocked everything. [Feb 2016, p.83]- Playstation Official Magazine UK

A love letter to the classic series written in blood, Doom Eternal is a fast-paced and utterly thrilling way to paint the town (and Mars, and ethereal realms) red. [Issue#174, p.89]- Playstation Official Magazine UK

There’s less focus on building up a single party than in some games in the series. There are so many characters you’ll often switch them around without having time to outfit everyone to perfection. But it’s fun to see everyone come together for this finale, and being an ensemble piece means that four games in, this is an epic-feeling send-off.

The deaths caused by the controls being not as responsive as we’d like may annoy, but there’s a whole world out there you’re going to want to feast your eyes on. [Issue#186, p.79]- Playstation Official Magazine UK

A veraciously detailed RPG that sometimes forsakes fun in the name of 'realism.' [Apr 2018, p.83]- Playstation Official Magazine UK

Bad news if you're after something brand new, but great if you're happy with their winning mix of firepower and smart laughs. [Aug 2008, p.102]- Playstation Official Magazine UK

This is a satisfying shoot-'em-up. It won't grip you for hours on end, but its combat will keep you dipping back in occasionally to blast your friends off the leaderboards. [Oct 2017, p.87]- Playstation Official Magazine UK

With games often lasting five minutes or less, you don’t feel like you’ve lost a lot when you inevitably cark it. While the familiarity you gain with the opening world does get frustrating – you spend a lot of time there – there’s a one-more-go compulsiveness to Spelunky that leaves you chasing more gold than Jr (they called the dog Indiana).- Playstation Official Magazine UK

SOMA's a fascinating interactive story that occasionally wants to murder you dead. [Dec 2015, p.86]- Playstation Official Magazine UK

Impossible to recommend as a single-player game. Siege is an absolutely splendid multiplayer shooter for well-organised (and forgiving) teams, with great tactical terrain destruction. [Feb 2016, p.86]- Playstation Official Magazine UK

American football mixes brain and brawn like no other sport, and it's something Madden 09 reflects beautifully. [Oct 2008, p.96]- Playstation Official Magazine UK

The best thing is that both the game and the Hogwarts setting feel genuinely big. [Aug 2010, p.112]- Playstation Official Magazine UK

The multiplayer stuff is so good that without it, the game simply wouldn't be as enjoyable. World Tour is immensely entertaining, but played solo it eventually becomes a slightly lonely, hollow experience. [Apr 2007, p.98]- Playstation Official Magazine UK

A winning piece of minimalist game design that manages to do a lot with a little in an industry which far too frequently achieves the exact opposite, and it deserves much praise for that.- Playstation Official Magazine UK

Tasi’s story is a well-balanced nightmare littered with delicious scares. While, like her ill-fated aeroplane, it doesn’t quite stick the landing, it should still sate your desire for atmospheric terror. [Issue#182, p.150]- Playstation Official Magazine UK

Feel the laser burn with this neon-lined rhythm game. Just make sure you have enough room to swing a cat strapped to a laser sabre when you play this one. [Issue#157, p.96]- Playstation Official Magazine UK

A disastrously addictive 'rogue-ilke' time sink that clearly benefits from more than two years of PC Early Access tweaking. Don't argue - just get it. Now. [Feb 2016, p.88]- Playstation Official Magazine UK

Traditional FPS gameplay is given a new spin with PS VR as the frighteningly fast, wide-eyed fun of flying in 360 degrees is matched by tight controls and a welcome lack of motion sickness. [June 2017, p.88]- Playstation Official Magazine UK

Simplicity and repetition may turn off those looking for a challenge, but Last Day of June boasts a heartfelt poignancy that makes for a richly affecting experience. [Oct 2017, p.89]- Playstation Official Magazine UK
