Improvements aside and the odd minor technical shortcoming ignored, The Nathan Drake Collection is a trilogy of action classics that series fans will definitely enjoy revisiting, and newcomers will most certainly have fun experiencing for the first time. There's three explosive and entertaining stories to play through here, which will...
Lego Dimensions has entered into a competitive genre, with two well-established franchises already enjoying plenty of success, but it brings something new to the table and comes well supported by a back-catalogue of appealing properties. It might be the most expensive option on the market, but for our money it's...
With FIFA 15 EA changed several gameplay elements, but the game lost focus and direction, two essential pillars that seem to have been found again in this new edition. In terms of licenses, general presentation, graphics and game modes, FIFA 16 is superb, as it always has been, but more...

Unfortunately we were not able to test PES 2016 online for the purpose of this review.
Clever systems are complimented by stylish visuals and audio. 17-Bit has pulled together a wonderful blend of ingredients when creating this space shooter. If you enjoyed Spelunky and other games of that ilk, or even if you're a fan of classics like R-Type, then make Galak-Z your next port of...
