New Vegas is rightfully considered to be the best of the 3D Fallout games, with an excellent world that is all sorts of fun to explore.

This game is an awful lot of fun. Quite simple in mechanics, but there is enough content and upgrade paths to follow to keep it engaging, especially when playing with a friend.

It may start to get a bit repetitive after the first few blood moons before you upgrade to the point of building vehicles, but once you've got one, even the basic bicycle, it expands the area of the map you can play in considerably. Once you get to that point, establishing multiple safe houses is possible and you can play across the entire, huge map.

Quite a fun little strategy card game, though the later levels do get very challenging and luck is usually needed to win the harder games.

This is an incredibly fun little game, built around changing the rules of the scenario, and it's amazing how quickly things can get challenging (and naturally, how obvious everything seems in hindsight).

It took me a little while to figure out how to manage my colony, but once I did this turned out to be a very fun game. Organising swarms of different ant species to hunt other insects or harvest leaves was great, and the levels were surprisingly challenging and required careful forethought about what to place where. I am eagerly looking forward to the next update.

A brilliant game, far superior to what EA pushes out. Still the gold standard for a Star Wars shooter game fourteen years later.

Maybe it doesn't quite live up to New Vegas, playing Fallout 3 second, but it is still an excellent game and well worth playing.

I was a bit dubious about this, given how much I had heard about the RPG elements being dumbed down, and while that is true, the quality of the game easily makes up for it. The graphics are beautiful and the shooting and combat is far smoother than Fallout has ever been before. While I do miss the levels for guns/energy weapons/explosives/lockpicking etc, I am thoroughly enjoying the vastly expanded perk system and modifications to be made for all weapons and armour, and the settlement system is a fantastic way to sink hours into the game in between missions.

This game has all of the detailed world building and quests that we look for in Bethesda games, and I'm loving every minute of it.

A beautifully haunting atmosphere and minimalist art-style is what made LIMBO famous. It's only a couple of hours or so long, but still plenty challenging and a very enjoyable experience.

A fantastic first episode setting up old characters and new, Before the Storm shows us enough of the Chloe we remember to make her recognisable while still making her a different person. There are great hints and easter eggs to events mentioned in Life is Strange to make every moment spent exploring easily worth it. Without the rewind mechanic from LiS all the conversations become even more meaningful and you end up getting even more invested in the characters and their stories. I can't wait for the next episode to come out.
