In my mind, I do understand that Endless Space is not without its flaws. But the mere sight of such a coherent space strategy game is mesmerizing.- Absolute Games

Multi Massacre looks and plays exactly like its boring 2009 predecessor, Foreign Legion: Buckets of Blood. In fact, this is not a sequel, just a bunch of new levels and multiplayer modes that should have been released three years ago.- Absolute Games

Look past the thick veil of colorful visual effects, and you'll see Dead Trigger for what it really is – a compilation of the worst features of freemium shooters that plague the App Store.- Absolute Games

A few years ago, we had three very distinct shooter franchises: Call of Duty, Battlefield, and Ghost Recon. Now we have just one: Call of Duty from Activision, Call of Duty from EA, and Call of Duty from Ubisoft. I'm willing to accept this new direction of the series, but Future Soldier hasn't got a single memorable moment.- Absolute Games

The weak narrative sucks all the emotional drama from the game's story, while beautiful hand-drawn backgrounds are saddled with the ugliest examples of character animation.- Absolute Games

London 2012 is almost an exemplary sports compilation – nice-looking, somewhat challenging, with a good selection of disciplines.- Absolute Games

The already excellent Crusader Kings 2 just got a second wind – now with a spicy Middle-Eastern flavor!- Absolute Games

The Act is a cute, but very short animated cartoon disguised as an experimental "game".- Absolute Games

Not every shooter gives you a chance to abuse the laws of physics. Too bad that Saber Interactive could not flesh out its original concept, leaving us with a mediocre Gears of War clone.- Absolute Games

Despite its modest amount of improvements, Gods & Kings is an excellent reason to come back to Civilization 5.- Absolute Games

Blades of Time is a step forward compared to X-Blades, Gaijin Entertainment's previous offering. Alas, the hack and slash action is too monotonous to enjoy, and there is nothing else to draw you in.- Absolute Games

Remove the original premise and beautiful sand-swept skyscrapers of Dubai, and all that remains is a humdrum TPS with Marcus Fenix's DNA at its core.- Absolute Games

Fray in its current state is hardly a game at all - just snippets of code and someone's unfulfilled dreams.- Absolute Games

"Just another Sonic game" is the best description of Episode 2. A colorful, but flavorless platformer.- Absolute Games

The game's endearing visual style and amusing (albeit clichéd) story are let down by the overall laziness of its creators.- Absolute Games

And yet again, the only bright spot in a game about zombies is a CG promo that has nothing in common with the actual gameplay.- Absolute Games

There is a guy with a gun, and he is going to punish anyone who stands in his way, be it corrupt politicians, New Jersey gangsters or rotten cops of Sao Paolo. Max Payne 3 is basically gun porn with a semblance of a dramatic story. It looks and plays like a Hollywood blockbuster, though.- Absolute Games

Close Quarters was definitely made for fans of Call of Duty – it offers everything that Modern Warfare had from the beginning. Smart tactics is thrown out the window and replaced by confined spaces and fast-paced shootouts.- Absolute Games

I'm not sure if we should be calling Iron Front a game. It's more like a huge target range where people can run around, drive tanks and shoot each other.- Absolute Games

Captain Morgane is a bland story with one-dimensional characters, weak attempts at humor and mini-games that reek of desperation.- Absolute Games

Is it worth it to release a Quake 3 clone in 2012? I don't know. In fact, Nexuiz is doomed not because it lacks fresh ideas, but because it lacks people who want to play it.- Absolute Games

A well-written story could have transformed Rayman Origins into a beautiful fairytale. Without it, it's an incredibly fun ride and a great party game.- Absolute Games
