Fez - Good, but not for me because of the time commitment/enjoyment ratio. And I really wish the graphics were better; I'm no snob in that sense, but they're actually painful in a game like this if you play it for any amount of time.

JoJo's Bizarre Adventure - The clue's in the title. It's a Streetfighter clone from Japan so it's weird to start with, but for some reason absolutely everyone in the game is super camp. We're talking full-on mincing, winged hair-dos, whips and chains, guys who throw bubbles at each other... It's not even a good game! I tried everything, but the 'special' moves just seem to be linked to individual button presses, and it's almost impossible for either fighter to actually get close enough to attack. Bizarre alright.

Hotline Miami - I detest the fact that you can now put out a game that is deliberately AWFUL, have some pretentious [LIFTED] of a 'journalist' say it's amazing, have his friends join the hipster parade out of fear, and then watch the consumer repeat the process making it a hit. The only thing notable about this game is that the soundtrack gets into your head, that's it, every other aspect literally doesn't work.

I'll assume your front paws are too big so you have difficulty in playing it properly o_o

Oddworld: Stranger's Wrath - Good, but the controls are far too fiddly for the amount of action taking place.

Beyond: Two Souls - As above, but even worse in a sense because the game is basically one big interactive cutscene, like Heavy Rain before it. I honestly don't know who persists with these games to the end when you could be playing just about anything else.

It's also the final game in the series - presumably they know you'll only get away with the same trick twice :P

I'm horrifically addicted to Android Monopoly and Stupid Zombies 2; thing is, I'm only even playing them because they were free at the time, I would never have risked even 69p on them lol.

Android Sonic 2 - Why would anyone play Sonic on a touchscreen?

Android Superhero Quiz thingy - both brilliant and infuriating for someone like me lol.

I’m currently playing the new(isn) Tomb Raider game on my PS4, and really liking it. I think it’s the character development they’ve put in that I’m enjoying the most. That seems to be handled pretty well.

The new TR is a real return to form - the only minor criticism I have is that some elements that could have been brilliant weren't fully expanded upon, like the weapons upgrades and the hunting of animals.
