From our Review of Episode 1: Marvel’s interstellar, ragtag Guardians of the Galaxy prove a natural fit for the style of storytelling Telltale puts out these days - and it doesn’t take long into Episode 1: Tangled Up in Blue to recognize why. It manages to pull together some of the best elements of the comic books, the Guardians film adaptations, and Telltale’s ability to deploy well-paced and witty comedy with just enough interactivity to make you feel like a part of the action.

The students at Kishimai High School enjoy a blissful existence filled with classes and daily performances by the intoxicating virtual idol μ (pronounced myoo). While many students are quite content with this idyllic lifestyle, a few of them have uncovered a terrifying truth about their lives: everything is a lie.

In The Caligula Effect, the protagonist discovers this secret and must join with a group of other enlightened students, who call themselves the Go-Home Club, to escape.

From our Review: FlatOut 4: Total Insanity didn’t have to do much to be better than its irredeemably dire predecessor. To be frank, that’s only because FlatOut 3: Chaos & Destruction – released way back in 2011 after a franchise ownership and developer change – is one of the worst racing games ever released.
Still, new studio Kylotonn has done a decent job here salvaging the comatose series, turning it back into a serviceable but repetitive smash ’em up-slash-stunt racer.
Release Date: Friday, May 5, 2017
- See it on Steam (PC)
- Also downloadable on PS4 & Xbox One

Reinventing the franchise for a new generation of consoles, Prey is a first-person sci-fi action game that reimagines the franchise from the ground up ... with an added psychological twist. You are Morgan Yu, the subject of morally dubious experiments designed to improve the human race. You awaken aboard the Talos 1 in the year 2032 and must uncover the secrets hiding in the depths of the space station while being hunted by the mysterious alien force that has taken over. You’ll have to rely on the tools you find on the station -- along with your wits, weapons and mind-bending abilities -- to combat the growing threat and, hopefully, survive. Get your first look at Prey in the cinematic reveal trailer.
