Duet is a masterclass in simplicity and minimalism. The gameplay is seamless, slick and refined, and at just the right difficulty to keep you hooked.

Brawlhalla is currently lacking in polish, variation, and game balance, but the game so far looks to be a promising Super Smash Bros-type couch fighter.

Portal 2 is a direct upgrade from its predecessor. With an engaging storyline, and puzzles nothing short of mind-bending, this title is a must-have.

Mirror's Edge, although it shows age, has one of the best parkour and area traversal systems in videogames. The story may suck but the gameplay flows.

Castle Crashers is a light-hearted co-operative hack and slash. A lot of fun with friends, its gameplay is simple but with room for skill.

An entertaining arcade shooter with matrix-esque slowing of time. And it doesn't require Uplay. Need I say more?

Brothers is possibly one of my favourite titles in recent memory. It delivers a beautiful story with minimal but unique gameplay mechanics.

The Bridge uses Escher-esque puzzles to shift your sense of perception. An interesting puzzle title, but unfortunately with little replay value.

Although weaker than those that came before, Arkham Origins is still a relatively decent title with far more interesting boss fights than its peers.

Improving upon its predecessor in many ways, Arkham City adds a huge open world and improves flow of combat. A strong sequel in a great series.
