    A chilling and well-realised experience, Outlast accomplishes almost everything it sets out to do. A strong start for the team and a strong entry in this resurgent genre.

    There is no other sports sim out there that can beat Virtua Tennis 3 for entertainment value. [Issue 18, p.86]

    A marked improvement on the original, and though it does make a few new mistakes, there's a lot here that story-loving FPS fans will appreciate. [Issue#98, p.65]

    One of the best-designed but least original games we've ever played. [Issue#82, p.86]

    Another good episode, but the QTEs need to go - this is a game you play for the story, so scenes like the one below just don't need to be interactive. [Issue#110, p.74]

    Be A Pro's sideshow trumps the main event, which itself is largely unchanged. [Issue#32, p.86]

    A true vintage classic brought bang up to date. [Issue#65, p.103]

    Smart advances on pitch make the game skillful and extremely rewarding. It's just a shame that a few small niggles haven't been fixed from last year. [Issue#104, p.76]

    An excellent basketball simulation. [Issue#52, p.92]

    Fans of old King's Quest games will find much to enjoy, and several new additions make this new installment feel fresh and engaging. [Issue#128, p.77]

    The lack of clear black and white moral choices is as refreshing as it ever was, even if this season opener seems to hint at a slight change in tone.

    There’s a lot of learning involved to make the most of Smite – and not enough done to introduce the more complicated elements – but as a competitive multiplayer game this is a game you really ought to try.

    It's the same game as FlatOut 2 with a graphic makeover and a generous pinch of "So what? We're not pretending it's different. This is still fun to play." [Issue #22, p.78]

    Crisp, manic, gorgeous and invigorating at times, Forza 5 is as accomplished as ever technically. Drivatar is the only real innovation, and car numbers are lower, but it’s an incredible opening act on Xbox One.

    • 100 Critic Score
    A study in pure, unadulterated excellence.

    Along with the redefined tag team matches, Road To Wrestlemania and create-a-finisher, the multiple tweaks and touches make this the best SmackDown for a while.

    Clearly an inferior product to Kinectimals. [Issue#78, p.88]

    Nuts & Bolts is a fantastically fun game. It may threaten to overcomplicate itself from time to time, but it’s impossible to play and not come out with a smile on your face.

    There is a layer of depth in MMA for those who are looking for more. [Issue#65, p.86]
