    If it were DLC at a reasonable price then this would be a great addition, but a few fun extra modes and a different list of teams don’t really justify this as it is.

    It’s an RPG with all its French-Canadian roots on show, a spectacular and unique amalgam of genres and ideas that creates something we really think any RPG fan ought to experience.

    An okay celebration of 30 years of Pac-Man's furious assault on the four unluckiest ghosts ever. There are better Pac-related options though. [Issue#110, p.78]

    The best motocross game in years. [Issue#110, p.76]

    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]

    Fun, frustrating and incredibly well designed, this is the perfect game to see you through the summer next-gen drought.

    The tech largely works and the games range from great to average. It's certainly not amazing and lacks longevity, but it's still a good indication of the Kinect goodness to come.

    Titanfall is a ridiculous amount of fun. Maybe it’ll be surpassed, but right now it’s the best game on Xbox One and one of the best multiplayer shooters ever.
    • 69 Metascore

    It's not quite what we've come to expect from TT Games; you'd be better off going to watch the film four times. [Issue#109, p.81]

    Visually stunning and audibly impressive, but we are starting to take serious issue with the numerous technical faults found in every Telltale game. [Issue#109, p.80]

    Even Superman struggles to save this action RPG, which is dragged down by technical issues, uninspiring levels and graphics straight out of 2007. [Issue#109, p.78]

    Outstanding fun for the first few weeks thanks to the OTT carnage but Garden Warfare trails off a little too quickly to leave a lasting impression. [Issue#109, p.76]

    A solid multiplayer free-to-play shooter that, despite suffering from a lack of variety, is distinct enough to warrant giving it a try. [Issue#109, p.70]

    Ground Zeroes feels a little lean, but the game remains an invigorating, intelligent and interesting return to a series that feels as if it is heading in the right direction.

    Rich in ideas yet terrible at executing them, Yaiba picks up all the things people hated about recent Ninja Gaiden games and just runs with them.
    • 91 Metascore
    • 90 Critic Score
    Only for the bold, Dark Souls II delivers a fearsome challenge, while dispensing with the complexity that bogged down its predecessor. A true triumph of game design.
    • 82 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    The definitive virtual South Park experience, pulled off with passion and aplomb. Unfortunately, there just isn’t enough of it, either in terms of depth or longevity. A must for fans, though.

    • 50 Critic Score
    If you need an excuse to return to Dead Rising 3 then this first DLC pack might just be it, don't expect to be blown away though. [Issue#108, p.94]

    • 53 Metascore
    • 30 Critic Score
    A disappointing twin-stick shooter, a waste of the Halo brand and an embarrassing installment into the Xbox One launch window line-up. [Issue#108, p.74]

    A feast for the eyes, a gauntlet for your thumbs and a satisfying puzzle for your brain to chew on, Lords Of Shadow 2 is a competent jack-of-all-trades.
    • 69 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    A solid stealth genre game. If you’re after an action-packed slaughterfest, look elsewhere – Thief will appeal to long-term fans and gamers that prefer to take a more cerebral approach with their anarchy.
    • 76 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    Looks stunning, handles well – but the level design and combat will leave you wanting more.
    • 69 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    While those that disliked XIII and its sequel might not find anything here to convert them – or at least not allow themselves to be converted by a strong action-RPG due to its cast or past – fans will find an entertaining and surprisingly innovative full stop to this chapter of the Final Fantasy franchise.

    Fable Anniversary has been given a great HD-coat of paint, but many of the mechanics feel too outdated by today’s standards to be satisfying.
    • 62 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Liberation won’t blow either long term fans, or Assassin’s Creed’s sceptics, out of the water. It does, however, have some original ideas.
    • 31 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    The idea of an FPS in the spirit of Counter-Strike is sound enough, but Rekoil needs to do a lot more than emulate this Valve classic to pull it off.
    • 23 Metascore
    • 10 Critic Score
    Boring when it works, frustrating when it doesn't, Fighter Within is one of the worst games you could ever have the displeasure of playing. [Issue#107, p.]

    Endearing and satisfying. [Issue#107, p.70]

    A few years ago How To Survive may have been enough to make the grade, but in a world overrun by superior zombie titles it barely makes the cut.
    • 43 Metascore
    • 30 Critic Score
    It’s an awkward mix of Diablo and Soul Reaver that nobody asked for. Something to play if you’ve got a few hours and an itch to bump up your Gamerscore.
