Enough time, energy and money has been spent on creating Ghosts that it’s still a decent game in its own right, but eight games on from COD4, this series seriously needs a revolution to get it back on track as the FPS king

Whilst it has some excellent exploration and puzzle segments, Deadfall Adventures is marred by its mediocre combat, frequent bugs and a story that struggles to keep the player engaged.

The dependence upon the mechanics of X-COM is handled well enough to not spoil the fundamentally fun gameplay. Saying that, there are a lot of issues with the game that detract from this experience. If you want something to occupy your time before XCOM: Enemy Within is released, then I’d recommend having another playthrough the original game rather than picking up this mediocre effort from Bohemia Interactive.

How to Survive is a top-down, zombie survival game that has you craft your way to victory. It’s fairly limited in what you can do with a linear storyline but has incredibly addictive zombie killing that kept me playing. Fans of mindless zombie killing will most likely enjoy this title whilst other, story driven gamers; maybe not so much.

A boring subject made spectacularly fun, Phoenix Wright's main draw is it's characters and being able to make you feel like a bad-ass for being a lawyer. Dialogue heavy sequences mean you'll want to take a few breaks between play.

A parable, as defined by Oxford English Dictionary, is a simple story illustrating a moral or religious lesson. Whilst The Stanley Parable is, in essence, a simple story about a man, Stanley, investigating where his cohorts have gone, it is so much more than this. It is, in all definitions of the word, an adventure.

Prepare your plants, ready your gardening skills and book as much time off work as possible because Plants vs Zombies 2 has arrived.

When indie developer Frictional Games released Amnesia: The Dark Descent in 2010, it surprised the gaming world by providing a more authentic horror experience than any triple-A title of the past few years. No doubt this put a lot of pressure on Brighton-based developer The Chinese Room, when it was decided they would be crafting the follow-up to the cult horror hit.

Good if you’re new to motorbiking games or if you’re a big fan of them. Doesn't offer much at all to those in the middle.

If you asked for a game that combined strategy maps, important political decisions that affected your country's economical and social climate, and dragons with jetpacks, some might say you were asking too much.

Overall though, The Bureau is something of a disappointment. It feels like a compromise, an awkward mix of shooter and strategy game in which neither element is allowed to shine. Shooter fans will most likely be reminded of superior titles like Uncharted and Gears of War, while strategy fans will be prompted to revisit the excellent XCOM: Enemy Unknown. As it stands, The Bureau is a perfect example of the dangers of attempting to appeal to everybody, proving that, more often than not, you won't appeal to anybody.

Sam Fisher returns in the sixth instalment of Ubisoft's flagship franchise, which does its best in appeasing fans of the original stealthy gameplay and the more recent action orientated fare alike.

Gone Home isn't a long game; the time taken to complete it is comparable to that of the average movie, even if you inspect the house thoroughly - and like most films, Gone Home's narrative is most enjoyable the first time round. But in the same way as the best flicks that you can rewatch time after time, I see myself returning to the Greenbriar household in the future.

Remakes are always controversial and successfully producing them can be an incredibly difficult, thankless task. While VectorCell's effort isn't the worst attempt I've ever seen, it certainly isn't the nostalgic celebration it could and should have been. If you're looking for a fun retro classic with a modern lick of paint, try WayForward's DuckTales: Remastered, because regrettably Flashback is an experience best forgotten.

Every now and then, a game comes along that when you see it, you stand back and think; “How in the world is that going to make for an interesting game?”. Papers, Please by Lucas Pope is one of those games.

"I had a lot of fun re-experiencing this time-honoured childhood classic. Having said that, I fall directly into WayForward’s target demographic; those who played and loved the original. If the same is true for you, this re-imagining will likely make for a delightful, nostalgia-laced experience. However, if DuckTales is unexplored territory for you, I could definitely see its old-fashioned gameplay and brutal difficulty being quite off-putting."

If you're looking for a decent RPG, you could do a lot worse than Shadowrun Returns.
