Guardians Of The Galaxy (PlayStation, Xbox, Switch, PC, £59.99)
Verdict: Space odyssey
Rating: 
Have you ever bounced around the hollowed-out inside of a giant celestial being’s skull?
I have. Or at least I have while playing as Peter Quill (who wishes you knew him as Star-Lord) in the new Guardians Of The Galaxy game, released this week.
And that’s not even the craziest thing that my gang of galactic misfits and I got up to. Was it when the gun-toting racoon challenged me to a shooting match and an arcade-style counter appeared on screen? Was it when we all chopped up a massive space octopus in a tyrant’s fortress? Or later, all that bother with the cult?
All of which is to say: this game is overflowing with invention, colour, and big, cosmic spectacle.
