While Assassin's Credd: Unity moves the blockbuster series onto next-gen platforms, Rogue has those on older systems (or just those who fancy a double AC dose this year) covered.
It's a canny blend of the familiar and the unfamiliar. The game builds on the assets and mechanics established in AC3 and Black Flag, but gives them a serious twist. It's set, once again, during...

What better way to see out a console generation than with a whopper of a blockbuster? One of the last big games not to land on the PlayStation 4 or the Xbox One, they don't come much bigger than Grand Theft Auto V, both in terms of hype and in terms of the game's open world.

LEGO Batman 3: Beyond Gotham is the most ambitious LEGO game starring the Caped Crusader yet. While it does, of course, have Batman and Robin front and centre, it could almost have been called 'LEGO DC Superheroes', such is the size of the cast and the scope of the adventure.
The 'Beyond Gotham' part of the title is certainly justified. This time out, the Dark Knight is...
