    The charming cel-shading look goes along with a nice mixture between action and strategy. Unfortunately the Nunchuk control is a little exhausting and there could also be more content. But in the end it's a well-made remake.

    Mortal Kombat has finally made the jump to the current console generation. And the result is a true Mortal Kombat offering great fights and even greater finishing moves.

    The horror genre has a new king: Dead Space excels in all disciplines - whether it’s playability, atmosphere, tension or presentation. An absolute must-have for all horror- and action-fans.

    As much fun as Guitar Hero - and perfect for any party. The music is great, but we miss some more game modes.

    It doesn't reinvent the genre. But it's more fun than ever to play the game in band mode.

    A very good port of a brilliant game with improved graphics and smooth gameplay . Unfortunately you have to stay connected to the internet due to Ubisoft’s anti-piracy protection.

    Faster, Harder, Fisher. The new Splinter Cell is more action-oriented and offers an atmospheric presentation and high tension. Some will miss the traditional stealth gameplay, others welcome the fresh ideas.

    Undisputed 2 has a much better career mode than his predecessor. It’s a lot of fun to level up your own fighter and learn new techniques. Only the poor soundtracks trouble the good gameplay and graphics.

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

    Guitar Hero: World Tour wants everything, but can’t reach one little thing: to dethrone the big competitor Rock Band in terms of group fun. Too many technical difficulties with the drum set , too little “We are rock gods”-feeling.

    Crysis is a great shooter and brings the current generation to its limits. The visuals offered are some of the best you will ever see and the gameplay doesn't lack behind. You won't be disappointed.

    Next gen graphics and successful innovations in the fighting system make this one a strong part of the cult series.

    Perfectly staged WWII shooter with impressive audio-visual quality. Nevertheless, we want a new, refreshing scenario for the sequel!

    Fighting with the iconic Marvel and Capcom characters is a fun experience for experts and players who are new to the genre. There could be more stages, though.

    Far Cry 2 has its annoying quirks, no doubt. But they can be solved via patch – the quality of fights, atmosphere, graphics and gameplay still reaches a very high level.

    With its innovative concept, Boom Blox is the perfect example for a refreshing puzzle game and very addictive. Unfortunately, the first levels are too easy and there is no online mode.

    Fabulous action game with nice riddles and cool fights, but with lacks in camera perspectives.

    Elika and the Persian prince are like Lady Di and Prince Charles – the love dies abruptly. About a year ago we criticized Ubisoft Montreal for a lack of diversity. Back then it was about Assassin’s Creed, but the criticism is all the same.

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

    Great visuals, nice controls and electrifying action - That's how it's supposed to be. Granted, it’s not an innovation masterpiece but it delivers some great hours of fun.

    Bad Company blasts the dust off of the Battlefield series with an excellent campaign. The game could be more extensive and the AI could be a little more sophisticated.

    Blood for the Bloodgod ! This Dawn of War Add-on continues the tradition of the Warhammer RTS series with action-packed missions and clean graphics. The gameplay hasn’t changed at all.

    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.

    The controls for PES Wii still aren’t intuitive to use, but with patience you may discover their brilliance. It is good that Konami decided to support the Classic Controller – it’s perfect for the impatient gamer.
