Tom Orry, Editor - PES 2016, PS4

I'm yet to patch PES on PS4 with the proper kits as doing so would eat up my playtime for a couple of days, so I'm still enduring the pitiful kits the game ships with. I realise they can't use the official kits due to licensing, but the original creations they've come up with are beyond terrible. It seems like such a small thing to moan about, but there's no question they should be better. I've spent minutes on the kit selection screen, trying to work out which combinations of home/away kit work well together. In some instances there's no option but to head out with two teams wearing practically the same kit. Awful.

Steve Burns, Deputy Editor – Uncharted: The Nathan Drake Collection, PS4

Well, that was obvious. I reviewed the Nathan Drake Collection, and despite saying it was a superb remaster attached to some aged-if-still-quite-good-in-places games, the internet exploded. Threads were locked, insults hurled, laughs were had. A good week, really, if you think about it. And now there's a 7 Reasons on the very topic, just in case people weren't riled up enough. Glorious.

Dave Scammell, News Editor – Until Dawn, PS4

It's going to be VideoGamer's Game of the Year, isn't it? It's actually quite unusual for everyone in the office to be in complete agreement over something: just look at my love for Skylanders or Steve's ridiculous views on Uncharted. But whenever Until Dawn is brought up, everyone is quick to talk about how much they enjoy it, discuss each other's playthroughs and agree that its surprisingly positive reception has been entirely warranted. Even James wants to play it. The last game he enjoyed was Football Manager Live.

Anyway, I finally finished it over the weekend, and while some of the bigger twists and turns can be fairly easy to predict, the narrative and structure is so incredibly clever that I found myself second guessing choices the whole way through, kicking myself when I made a mistake that could have easily prevented the death of a character.

It's the best kind of psychological horror, constantly questioning your initial judgements, asking what you would do if you were in the position of any one of these 8 people, and pushing you to make snap decisions and major judgement calls over what can seem the most minor of things. Knowing that just one wrong move - even when you think it's the right move - could lead to the death of a character makes Until Dawn a hauntingly dark, intense experience. And I absolutely love it.
