    Good graphics and entertaining missions but somewhat short.

    Sonic & Sega All-Stars Racing is a good Mario Kart alternative for PS3, Xbox 360 and PC.

    Although the Wolfenstein series has an excellent reputation, we were a bit skeptical before the review. But Wolfenstein offers brilliant, intense action with B.J. Blazkowicz, the Nazi Terminator. So the skepticism quickly turned into a hell-ride of fun.

    This tears your skin off! Fast gameplay, customisable upgrades and lots of style – despite the repetitive action, Wolverine definitely is the best game incarnation of our favorite super-hero.

    Overlord II is a good sequel. There are some nice locations and interesting missions. Overlord II is fun, because it´s good to be bad.

    The realistic gameplay and the complex multiplayer make for some good points. But the graphics and the damage model could be better.

    Unfortunately Riddick hasn't evolved much in the years since Escape from Butcher Bay, while the genre definitely has. Five year old gameplay doesn't compete well with next gen games, though Riddick still copes well.

    A lot of fun and a very nice setting, but the mission design is too repetitive to elevate the game to greatness.

    Okay, the new Tomb Raider adventure is not really innovative. But Lara has never looked so good before. The gameplay is smooth and the puzzles are great. But the stupid motorcycle trips, the camera and the senseless gadgets are fun-killers.

    Even with the lack of innovation, it's again fun to direct the little Patapons with music through the world.

    Straight-forward lightsaber action meets first class story. But what sounds like a must have game reveals a lot of frustrating sides and small bugs.

    A classic, which includes all 4 Megaman games from between 2002 and 2005. Great port, despite the outdated gameplay.

    Ubisoft’s war drama is gripping and brings some new features to the battle, but they fail to have an impact. A must-have for BiA-veterans.

    Though it offers more diversity than its predecessor, it can't reach top scores in our review due to the literally nonexistent story.

    A solid Action game, which is extraordinary fun when played with other gamers.

    The Asia-themed setting is quite fresh, but not everybody's cup of tea. There is no shame in giving it a try though.

    James Cameron's AVATAR is a surprisingly good video game for a game which derives from a film. Visit Pandora and be a part of the battle between Humans and the Na'vi.

    Motivating until the very end thanks to Alex' many skills. However there could be more detail in the graphics, the side missions are repetitive, and the AI could be much better. All in all a fun game, though.

    For LEGO and Indy fans, this game is a revelation! The funny scenes, in which Traveller’s Tales make fun of themselves, are one of the best parts of LEGO Indiana Jones.

    Minor flaws prevent this game from reaching a higher score. Still, Saboteur is an atmospheric shooter with some innovative notions.

    The graphics look quite dated and there's not much progress in comparison to the predecessor. However, the main game-elements still work well and the controls are very intuitive.

    Good graphics and entertaining missions but somewhat short.

    Best thing is the hassle-free multiplayer. It offers great potential for fun fitness parties.

    Entertaining, fun action game with a fresh concept, nice graphics and a lot of humor.

    Though it is a good game, it doesn't excel in certain areas such as graphics or diversity.

    Once you start Civilization, you can’t stop playing. Fortunately the controls work wonderfully on the console versions. A great strategy game!

    Granted, the amount of virtual blood spilled in MadWorld may seem a little too much for the touchy ones, but the fun is there to back it up.
    • 77 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    The voice control is almost perfect and absolutely trend-setting. But three gameplay-wise almost identical groups and similar missions are too little to captivate in the long term.
