Knack 2

"Knack 2 may possibly be one of the most improved sequels we've ever played."

Life is Strange: Before the Storm - Episode I Awake

"There's no ominous storm coming to Arcadia Bay, no impending doom, just the troubled life of a teenager who lost a parent and isn't dealing with it in the most healthy of ways..."

Observer

"The game's theme, clearly inspired by Blade Runner, is accompanied by an equally Blade Runner-inspired environment and level design."

The Long Dark

"The Long Dark feels more early access now than it's ever done, and it's a crying shame."

ARK: Survival Evolved

"ARK: Survival Evolved is a solid survival experience and one of the better options available, on console at the very least."

Last Day of June

"Thanks to an exciting story, an effective soundtrack, and an extremely beautiful art style, Ovosonico's new work goes straight to the heart..."

White Day: A Labyrinth Named School

"There's an element of butterfly effect to the game too, and certain interactions can affect the outcome of the game."

Xcom 2: War of the Chosen

"War of the Chosen touches almost every single aspect of the base Xcom 2 experience."

Yakuza Kiwami

"In the end Yakuza Kiwami is a Yakuza game: nothing more, and nothing less. It has those same strengths and weaknesses as the rest of the games in the series."

F1 2017

"This version is pretty much the same as last year, but with a few tweaks."

Uncharted: The Lost Legacy

"Nadine and Chloe have proven themselves more than capable of picking up the reins from Nathan Drake."

Matterfall

"One of the more entertaining games we've had the pleasure of experiencing in 2017."

Lawbreakers

"The clever implementation of gravity-defying combat comes with some satisfying and responsive shooter mechanics."

Sonic Mania

"Since the '90s there have been several attempts to revive Sonic, but even if some games have been good there's been little consistency."

Mega Man Legacy Collection 2

"The first six games are still better than these four, but they are good games nevertheless and definitely worth playing."

Batman: The Enemy Within - Episode 1

"The way Telltale deals with Batman's alter-ego is quite interesting, and more credible than we're used to seeing."

Hellblade: Senua's Sacrifice

"Ninja Theory said that they didn't want to make a game that was supposed to entertain everyone, but give us an experience we'd never seen before."

Unbox: Newbie's Adventure

"Newbie's first adventure may be packaged with some original ideas, its execution is a little rough around the edges."

Aven Colony

"A touch more detail in a couple of key systems would've terraformed this decent city builder into an excellent one."

Deadcore

"When it comes to playing it with a controller on the PS4, it's more of a frustrating chore than an enjoyable platformer."

Sundered

"Unfortunately, like Jotun, Sundered does not fulfil its potential due to a few technical issues and poor design choices."

Pyre

"Pyre is another strong game from the creative minds at SuperGiant Games..."

Cars 3: Driven to Win

"There's plenty to see and do, and younger players will enjoy the number of events, tracks, and unlockable cars on offer."

Super Cloudbuilt

"It's quite possibly the best parkour-esque experience on the console right now, and it's a joy to play."

Children of Zodiarcs

"Given how much further it feels like the game wants to go, it aches a bit to imagine the bigger game it could have been."

Yonder: The Cloud Catcher Chronicles

"A wonderful world full of adventure and things to find, but unfortunately there's not quite enough substance beyond that."

Sniper Elite 4: Season Pass

"The maps are big, there are lots of ways to move around, they're full of different enemy types, and there are multiple objectives."

Cryptark

"Beyond the frustrations we endured after some admittedly painful deaths, we enjoyed the blend of ingredients that Cryptark brings together."

Minecraft: Story Mode - Season 2 - Episode One

"It ticks all the boxes that a Telltale game should."

Arizona Sunshine

"This half-hearted zombie shooter feels bland and unpolished, and the only highlight is that the shooting mechanics work well."

Crossout

"More in-depth modes would definitely be appreciated in the future, to make what is a fun and destructive battler into something a touch more complete."

Final Fantasy XII: The Zodiac Age

"This remaster has been wonderfully done, and the rest of the world can now finally experience the extras that previously were only available to Japanese players."

Final Fantasy XIV: Stormblood

"So many elements work excellently, and the visuals are among the best in the business."

That's You!

"Those friends that you've got that don't really do consoles, but who like to drink and laugh and to play games around a table will love it."

Micro Machines: World Series

"Throw in the lack of modes and you're left with a game that may well struggle to hold the attention of its audience over time."

Crash Bandicoot: Nsane Trilogy

"While infuriation is a regular feeling, that's also where the Crash games have always excelled."

Valkyria Revolution

"Innovation needs to be well done and result in a quality product, preferably one that surpasses its predecessors."

The Golf Club 2

"It really lets you feel how hard it is to play golf in real life."

"It offers great gameplay and some phenomenal audio-visual design."

Nex Machina: Death Machine

"At the end of the day, if you liked Resogun, you're probably going to like Nex Machina. You might even love it."

"The racing is enjoyable and the content included has enough legs to last."

Get Even

"It's a good blend of thoughtful visual design and clever storytelling, and we've not played a game this intriguing in some time."

MXGP 3: The Official Motocross Videogame

"It has improved on a lot of elements and will no doubt be a delight for the fans of the genre, but some niggling issues still remain."

The Walking Dead: A New Frontier - Full Season Review

"It's been an emotional ride. The third season certainly provided drama."

Victor Vran: Overkill Edition

"At the end of the day, if you're looking for an action RPG to play on console, it's worth taking a look."

The Elder Scrolls Online: Morrowind

"Returning to mushroom-covered planes and molten ruins of Vvardenfell was largely a joy."

Dirt 4

"It's more than just a worthy sequel to both Dirt 3 and Dirt Rally, it's a true masterpiece."

Wipeout Omega Collection

"The games contained herein still feel as fresh as they did when they first launched back in the day."

Danger Zone

"You can always go back and try for higher scores, but more scenarios would have been welcome."

VR Karts

"While the game is fun and easy to play, it can also be equally frustrating and repetitive."
