  • Galak-Z

    Another game I was quite excited to finally get to play was the long awaited (mostly because I had been following its development) Galak-Z. I really liked Skulls of the Shogun (from the same studio), and knew that this game would have a fantastic visual sense (which it does), but it’s also a joy to see…

  • N++

    I love platforming, but I’m not particularly attracted to games that punish me – I only truly got into Dark Souls once I was able to play it with a couch co-pilot, who coached me through it. I always liked what I saw from the N series, but never ended up playing it that much…

  • King’s Quest: A Knight to Remember

    ,

    Having grown up playing the original King’s Quest games – not all, but a bunch, and I still have quite vivid memories of playing King’s Quest V, which at the time had cutting edge visuals for an adventure game – I was pretty excited at the idea of revisiting that world, especially as it looked…

  • Journey

    I’d forgotten just how much I love Journey. The game was re-released on PS4 recently, and since it’s cross-buy (as with all Thatgamecompany games) I had the PS3 version and so suddenly had access to this version. Last night, after completing the first episode of King’s Quest, I was looking to play something else before…

  • Rocket League

    I thought this game looked fun when I first saw a trailer for it a few months ago, and having played it now, it’s even better than I was hoping. Yeah, sure, playing soccer while driving cars sounds incredibly weird and nonsensical, but it really is a blast to play, with the driving controls perfectly…

  • Entwined

    ,

    I didn’t really know much about this game before playing it (it’s one of the PS+ free downloads this month), beyond that the screenshots I had seen looked pretty. Ends up that it takes a bit from Tempest, along with the idea of using the two analog sticks to control two separate entities (think Brothers).…

  • Astebreed

    Picked this up now that it’s out on PS4, and yeah, this is so up my alley. Haven’t played a good shooter (as in shmup) in ages, and the visuals on this are fantastic. Haven’t played that much yet, but I’ve certainly enjoyed what I’ve experienced so far (the first couple of chapters). The one…

  • Riptide GP2

    ,

    Picked this up because I miss Wave Race so much, and just want to race on water with decent visuals. The fact that it’s only $7 on PS4 made it an easy sell, as well as hearing that it’s from the same people behind last generation’s Hydro Thunder revival, a game I had a lot…
