Screamer's blend of twin-stick driving and narrative storytelling makes it one of the most distinctive action arcade racers I’ve played in quite some time. I cannot recommend Screamer enough. Bravo, Milestone! My review: youtu.be/m6zGY8oDq5g

Screamer is an absolute masterclass in arcade racing, an unconventional blend of high-speed thrills and slow, anime-fuelled storytelling that simply works It’s weird, wonderful, and bursting with originality, making it almost impossible to put down Our review: www.gamefriend.co.uk/review-screa...

Scott Pilgrim EX is another banger from Tribute games - a studio that rarely puts a foot wrong in the modern beat ’em up space. It’s a must-have for fans of Scott Pilgrim creator Bryan Lee O’Malley and a great game to play with friends. Our review: www.gamefriend.co.uk/review-scott...
