4.0

FC 25's gameplay familiarity may trigger initial disappointment, but career mode tweaks and the brilliant Rush mode soon pull you back in for another year. Ultimate Team, meanwhile, remains divisive as ever – but fans of that mode will love its myriad fan-service additions.

The most playable FIFA – oops! – in years. This is an encouraging new start for the EA Sports FC franchise, with Ultimate Team innovations truly standing out, and PlayStyles adding a smart new wrinkle to the on-turf action.

Splinter Cell, Hitman, Deus Ex: if you’ve ever enjoyed any games in those esteemed series, you owe a debt of gratitude to Thief – the 1998 stealth-‘em-up that spawned a hundred copycats.
