STILL PLAYING
Resogun PS4
We’re addicted again. Housemarque has wiped Resogun’s scoreboards clean and excised an annoying level-one exploit – which allowed players to farm enemies for huge scores – with a free update that also
introduces local co-op. The Heroes DLC, meanwhile, adds a new level and a brutally tough Survival mode. But despite all this
temptation, we’re still working on our Moonlight Butterfly ship in the new editor.
ZombiU Wii U
Nintendo’s continued efforts to convince players (and shareholders) of the value of Wii U’s GamePad inspired a trip back to Ubisoft’s chilling apocalyptic London. The introduction of supernatural story elements still frustrates, and a co-op campaign – rather than the unbalanced multiplayer
modes – wouldn’t have gone amiss. But ZombiU still stands among the most creative uses of Wii U’s controller to date.
Titanfall Xbox One
Titanfall’s fourth patch rearranges players based on their skill and performance in previous games ten seconds before each map begins loading, instantly putting an
end to the lopsided fights of the vanilla game and turning every battle into a closefought affair. It’s a transformative change
barely mentioned amid talk of the new mode, Titan emblems and new Burn Cards, but it redefines the game and sets a highwater mark for competitive matchmaking.
