Drive Any Track popped up on Greenlight back in January and looked like one of the greatest gaming ideas ever. Combine Audiosurfs music course generator with a stunt racing game like Trackmania, where each song generates a unique track filled with course toys to fly over, and the result is a game that looks absolutely irresistible. The journey from Greenlight to approval to Early Access has moved along at a brisk pace (as these things go) and now Drive Any Track is available for all.

Hardcore Gamer: "In January visual novel publisher Sekai Project ran a highly successful campaign for The Grisia Trilogy. They then went to work getting a translation of the first game, The Fruit of Grisaia, ready for Steam. Well, the wait is almost over!"

The gaming essentials.

It isn't often that we give 10/10 review scores on GameSpot. Since the site was founded in 1996, only nine games have earned that rank. But to achieve a 10/10, a game needs to be essential, and it needs to have something so meaningful to offer us that it simply cannot be ignored. Regardless, a 10/10 review score is always determined by the personal opinion of its respective writer and always reflects as such. So without further ado, here is a list of all the games that we've scored with a 10/10!

The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt

"Where The Witcher 2 sputtered to a halt, The Witcher 3 is always in a crescendo, crafting battle scenarios that constantly one-up the last, until you reach the explosive finale and recover in the glow of the game's quiet denouement. But while the grand clashes are captivating, it is the moments between conflicts, when you drink with the local clans and bask in a trobairitz's song, that are truly inspiring."--Review date: May 12, 2015 | Kevin VanOrd

Bayonetta 2

"Bayonetta 2 is a masterclass in pure, unadulterated action-game design, where its insane eye-popping visuals meld effortlessly with some of the sharpest, most joyful combat to have ever graced a video game. "--Review date: October 13, 2014 | Mark Walton

Super Mario Galaxy 2

"Super Mario Galaxy 2 is simply an outstanding game. It never rests on its laurels for a second, constantly presenting new objectives and mechanics to push you to never before seen places."--Review date: May 21, 2010 | Tom Mc Shea

Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots

"For anyone who appreciates games that rise above the simple act of pushing a few buttons and pulling a few triggers, Metal Gear Solid 4 is a stimulating ride that you won't soon forget. You'll want to see what happens next, yet when its long campaign draws to a close, you'll wish it would continue. That's not just because it's a well-told tale, but because that tale is woven through a thoroughly impressive game that tops its predecessors."--Review date: June 13, 2008 | Kevin VanOrd

Grand Theft Auto IV

"In case you haven't guessed already, Grand Theft Auto IV is a game that you simply have to play. The single-player game, which you can still play long after you complete the story, is the series' best by far, and the multiplayer features are good enough that you'll likely have no problem finding people to play with for many months to come. The minor flaws that you'll experience are no more difficult to overlook than those in previous GTA games, and they're greatly outnumbered by the features that will impress and surprise you anytime you think you've already seen everything that the game has to offer. "--Review date: April 28, 2008 | Justin Calvert

Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3

"Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3 strikes a perfect balance between new and old and renders the two previous entries in the series almost completely obsolete in the process."--Review date: October 29, 2001 | Jeff Gerstmann

Chrono Cross

"Fortunately for series fans, Chrono Trigger's dream team doesn't have a monopoly on RPG innovation. As with the first SNES title, everything in Chrono Cross "clicks" in a way most games wish they could imitate. The different parts combine into an instant RPG classic."--Review date: January 6, 2000 | Andrew Vestal

Soul Calibur (Dreamcast)

"Yes, it is a fighting game, a genre with a fairly limited scope, but insofar as fighting games go, Soul Calibur is mind-numbing perfection. Namco has taken the best and made it considerably better. The level at which the company has done so is practically unprecedented. Think state of the art. Absolutely brilliant in all aspects, as far as games of this type go, Soul Calibur is the undisputed king of the hill. It is essential in any gamer's collection."--Review date: August 9, 1999 | James Mielke

The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time

"In a way, The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time is a textbook example of retro done right. It manages to combine small aspects from all the previous Zelda games, giving you the same Zelda feel but in an entirely new way. Even in its huge, fiercely 3D world, the game retains a truly classic feel. This is a sequel at its finest, expanding on previous themes and bringing plenty of new stuff to the table."--Review Date: November 23, 1998 | Jeff Gerstmann
