Eight years have passed since the original Doom 3 debuted in the world of high-end PC gaming. Meanwhile, FPS have evolved so much that this glorious title shows all the time that has passed.

Horizon represents a successful attempt to morph the notorious racing game into a street racer that could define a new future for the Forza Motorsport franchise.

The true hiccup of this old-style shooter is the foolish price on Steam. Valve's digital shelves are full of better arcade and indie games for the admission price tag of 18 Euros.

Sports Champions 2, just like its predecessor, attempts to overcome the throne of Wii Sports. Thanks to the new sports included and the same, funny gameplay, it partially achieves that goal. Unfortunately, some issues with the controller drive the game off-road.

Oops! Capcom did it again! Another HD collection is here, this time featuring Marvel Super Heroes and Marvel Vs. Capcom. HD filters, in game challenges, GGPO and a lot of extras to unlock, are good enough for a 1200 Microsoft Points deal.

Poor gameplay, uncertain graphics, terrifying voice-over and a problematic control-schema: considering the intolerable lack of Chuck Norris, rejection is the only choice.

Way of the Samurai 4 is the perfect mirror of the modern Japanese videogame industry. Good, old ideas are still cool enough to entertain, but the clumsy and dated technical side can prevent people from buying the game.

Some technology issues and a few uncertain design choices, many of which were already in Little King's Story, weigh a bit in last Konami's IP. But after all, New Little King's Story is deep in its mechanics, nice and very long. Merging an RPG with a RTS isn't easy, but the final result is commendable. Hail to the Little King!

One of the much beloved Sega Saturn flagship games comes back from memories to hold our hand in an awesome journey through dreams. Nights into Dreams HD is an original one, a very peculiar platform game... without platforms! This new porting is good in every aspect except controls: the fluid movement of Nights now feel less accurate and joyful, but they are still good enough to not affect the gameplay for newcomers.

The Unfinished Swan is one of the best titles available for PS3, with its minimalistic graphics and its sublime soundtrack. Do we have finally a good reason to buy a Move controller? Yes, indeed!

Newcomers and hardcore fans who played the original titles will be served with the best Poké-game ever made and one of the best and deepest action-adventure-RPG titles on Nintendo DS.

Newcomers and hardcore fans who played the original titles will be served with the best Poké-game ever made and one of the best and deepest action-adventure-RPG titles on Nintendo DS.

Of Orcs And Men has not had a great marketing campaign, and this is the reason it will be considered a surprise by many. Though there is a certain lack in interactivity, it presents a strong storyline with a dynamic duo that will be remembered.

A mixture of puppets and violence, Naughty Bear: Panic in Paradise unleashes your sadism, but do no expect too much.

Not everything turns out to be as good it should: Babel Rising is a really good game on the iOS/Mobile environment, but loses part of its spirit in its consoles version. With a boring and linear gameplay and an insufficient Kinect control-schema, it represents a missed chance in XBLA market.

A voyage into the past, Carrier Commando Gaea Mission presents a great, original idea in a fresh gameplay. Pity that this effort is ruined by a very poor AI.

A funny "roller-coaster" spin off in the Fable series, with entertaining straightforward story and gameplay, partially ruined by some annoying Kinect-related technical issues.

XCOM: Enemy Unknown is a good remake of the Microprose's original game. Old fans may find it too simplified, but the new XCOM is, however, a modern and spectacular turn-based strategy game. It is not perfect but it's a game that many people will love.

Vastly entertaining but highly derivative, Bethesda's latest effort perhaps isn't the behemoth of originality that some expected it to be, but still it is a game that every fan of stealth-oriented action/adventures shouldn't miss.

Spike ChunSoft's effort to create an hardcore, Kinect based Dragon Ball experience is not that good. The basic gameplay mechanics are ok, but they have failed in being entertaining due to the lack of variety. The reaction time of the hardware is quite a problem too, slowing down the pace of the fights. Younger Dragon Ball fans will be ok with the game anyway, just cause it's too cool to throw a Kamehameha in real-life.

With the goal of approaching the console market, Port Royale 3 has simplified too many of its mechanics, resulting in a step back in the strategy genre.

With Just Dance 4, Ubisoft is giving us another "more of the same" game. This title is pretty much the same of Just Dance 3, with a new track list and small differences here and there. If you're looking for the very same experience of Just Dance 3, just with new songs, the game is served.

This year NBA 2K13 is one of the best sports simulations, and the greatest basketball game to date.

More shadows than lights in this latest entry of the long-lasting Capcom franchise. Resident Evil 6 proposes some confused ideas that turn into gameplay elements that give players some bitter-sweet sensations. Leon's campaign is the real star of the game and the only one that really deserves the Resident Evil label.

Dead or Alive 5 is a nice fighting game, pretty different from the previous chapters. The fighting system is deeper and more oriented to the pro gamers, due to the revamped Stun mechanics. The Story mode is pure trash but...whatever, the game is still great!

Tryst could be summarized with one, single word: speed. Everything in the game is fast, sometimes too fast, but it is a good way to provide an easy approach to hardcore gamers as well as newcomers.

Torchlight II is not a game about innovation - it's an extremely well-crafted traditional hack'n'slash. With its very nice visuals and a virtually infinite replay value, the latest Runic's creation is the best alternative to Diablo III.

The European version of Rocksmith is much better than the American one, due to a bunch of useful changes. The new balance of the automatic difficulty level is better than the original and the good practice mode is a nice touch. Few technical problems are still there, but the product is still pretty impressive.

The Testament of Sherlock Holmes is the classic Frogwares adventure: quite good, quite interesting and with a good story, but excellence is quite far away.

Mark of the Ninja is a must for Xbox 360 owners. A platformer-stealth winking to puzzle-games, with an enviable replay value, an accessible but yet honest gameplay and a commendable level design, which transforms the latest title form Klei Entertainment in a non-linear and unpredictable experience.

Despite excellent graphics, Wild Blood suffers from a repetitive, uninspired and superficial gameplay. Unreal Engine and a funny plot aren't enough.

Despite it's lack of epic scope in comparison with the previous expansions, Mists of Pandaria proves to be one of the most complete add-ons to date for World of Warcraft. The amount of innovation and level of optimization is remarkable, and if you are a WoW fan, Mists of Pandaria is something you don't want to miss.

The stupid players taking vehicles for themselves and leaving an entire platoon on foot at the homebase, are the only reason you should not buy this great DLC for Battelfield 3, which gives the best on PC.

FIFA 13 is the best football simulation out there. It has a deep and engaging gameplay and a variety of game modes, offline and online.

The new combat system is smoother than in other Musou games and the good graphics turn this title into a must buy for every One Piece lover.

Despite various issues, it's clear that Codemasters Birmingham produced a solid F1 game able to satisfy the need for speed of all addicted to the Bernie Ecclestone circus, whatever the platform and the challenge desired.

Mugen Souls is a heavily Japanese RPG, with few great ideas and mediocre graphics. The combat system and the nice humour both balance a flat story and the boring space battles. If you like these kind of games, you'll find Mugen Souls funny and enjoying.

An epic sequel with a compelling, entertaining, long-lasting single player and one of the finest co-op experiences of all time.

PES 2013 fixes many problems of the previous game, but Konami's football needs a new engine to compete with FIFA 13. An old animation system and a lazy physics are problems that all the good ideas in this edition of the game couldn't overwhelm. PES 2013 is the best old-school football game to date.

One of the most beloved Dreamcast franchises returns with fancy new HD graphics, the original OST and all the charm of its original gameplay. There are some problems with the audio balance and some stuttering when played from a fragmented hard drive, but although not perfect (and it has never been) this game is still a masterpiece.

Raven Strike is a strong DLC with interesting upgrades to the original Future Soldier's gameplay. The new Campaign's maps are quite entertaining, and the higher difficulty level is a great touch for old school Ghost Recon's fans.

Tokyo Jungle is an unique and crazy experience that can be appreciated not only by the fans of Japanese games but by everyone.

Frantic, addictive and extremely funny: Joe Danger's return couldn't have been better.

NHL 13 is back with a new physics system, new game modes, a revamped lighting system and a better AI (but only for the goalies). With the disappearance of the 2K series, EA could have played it safe but instead chose to improve again.

A very good expansion pack full of new contents but also problems. It's fun to play like a werewolf or a fairy, a little less to have to deal with the zombies that do not behave as they should. The only truly effective weapon against the undead is the pea shooter from Plants Vs Zombies, only available in the limited edition.

The LittleBigPlanet saga has found its perfect match in PlayStation Vita. Mini-games, sharing options, co-op, touch controls and motion features make this game an absolute must for Media Molecule aficionados.

Hoodwink is a missed opportunity: it has original and exotic settings, but it lacks the basics of the adventure games.

I am Alive for PC confirms all the pros and cons of the console version, with slightly better graphics. PC users should be more than happy to enjoy this peculiar survival game, who will grant at least 8 hours of gameplay for just 15 Euros.

Tekken Tag Tournament 2 is pure love for this saga and for its community from the producer Katsuhiro Harada. Everything, from its smooth gameplay to the rich game modes, looks like it was created just to please Tekken fans. If you like Tekken, this is the best game out there.

Armored Kill is a great DLC embedded with all the Battlefield charm. The console version of this expansion pack, anyway, is ruined by the lack of the true 64 players multiplayer mode, nerfed into less impressive 24 player battles. The huge maps of Armored Kill are simply too big for such a slim number of players.

Hearthfire is too superficial and linear to fit in a deep and complex game as Skyrim. And it's a shame, because the personal life of a Dragonborn would have been a great addition to this game.

Papo & Yo is a wonderful adventure. Although it has some technical issues, this game will completely capture inside its magic world.

The first real DLC for the controversial Mass Effect 3 is a two hours long adventure attempting to tell the story of one of the most important creatures in the main game. The plot is definitely better than the gameplay but why now and why so late?

Capcom did it again. Such a great game and such a poor porting! JoJo's Bizarre Adventure HD simply isn't worth the money Capcom is asking for. The game is great, but the lack of the awesome Story Mode of the old PlayStation version is a shame.

An explorative PvE packed with dynamic events, PvP competitive challenges, a new crafting system and many more innovations make Guild Wars 2 an MMO for everyone, from casual to hardcore gamers. Choose your character and join the battle alongside with your friends: it's free!

Dark Souls is a masterpiece, but From Software should have done a better porting to fulfill PC-users' expectations. Nonetheless, it one the best games of the past season, so close your eyes and have fun.

Another Mario entry in the everlasting Nintendo series. This time there's nothing really new but the same good-old-fashioned Nintendo gameplay… a little bit on the short-side, unfortunately.

A good action game with some really inspired moments. The campaign now is less open-world but better-crafted. The greatest and biggest loss in this game is the co-op mode, but the multiplayer is still very addictive, especially now with all the unlockables.

Dust: An Elysian Tail is good but not great. The graphics are gorgeous, but every other aspect of the game feels like it is incomplete, or simply ruined from bad design choices. Anyway, the experience is still good enough to grant some honest fun. 1200 MP are way too much, 800 would be much better.

The very first guitar/shooter game available on the console is fun to play and very enjoyable.

Sleeping Dogs is an extremely well realized "GTA-clone" with an interesting setting, story and cast of characters. The mix of martial arts, free running and shooting sequences is thrilling and gives this game an edge over many other similar titles.

New year, same problems. Without deck customization, Magic: Duels of Planeswalker 2013 couldn't be a masterpiece, just a good game.

Sound Shapes is a pure gem. Awesome music and clever graphics are mixed together into a marvelous cocktail. The deep editor grants tons of great content, just like it happened with LittleBigPlanet.

The PC version of Dawnguard is only slightly better than the console one, and deserves the attention of Elder Scroll's most rabid fans: if with Skyrim you had enough of bugs and glitches, then it's better to consider this DLC after the patch that Bethesda will provide to all PC players. Hopefully, sooner than later.

An action-GDR with some interesting ideas hidden well behind a coding far under the average.

Hybrid represents a good attempt for 5th cell in the TPS multiplayer genre, that will surely entertain you during this summer. The engine runs smoothly at 60 FPS, the gameplay is solid though not innovative, and the game will prove worthwhile whether played alone or with a couple of friends.

Arctic Strike is a nice add-on for the brand new TPS from Ubisoft. The new maps are quite interesting and the extra multiplayer mode grants hours of fun. The online experience, right now, looks much more balanced than the original one, due to the free patches and this brand new DLC too.

London 2012 is the first official Olympic Games videogame without button mashing gameplay, and it is also a good attempt to give back the feelings of this spectacular event.

Pokémon Conquest is an enjoyable but quite straightforward strategic title, a successful spin-off for the infinite Nintendo franchise. Sadly, the game lacks an Italian localization, which may create some issues for the younger players.

Orcs Must Die! 2 is the natural evolution of the first chapter and, for tower defence co-op lovers, is truly a must buy. The fun of this new multiplayer mode balances the lack of evolution in the gameplay and, for 13 Euros, it would be embarrassing to ask for more.

An excellent non-gaming product that will guide you through an immersive and beautiful world of colors. Maybe you won't ever become the new Pollock, Da Vinci or Monet but… who cares? Just paint and have fun!

Beat the Beat Rhythm Paradise is very similar to the same game on DS but is still a joyful experience for you and your friends, despite the lack of a real multiplayer mode.

Like its original and captivating art-style, Deadlight's gameplay has shadows and lights to share with players, but it's quite a good first-try for Tequila Workd team.

For a fistful of bucks you will receive a surprisingly good-old-fashioned-tactic-RPG that deserves all of your attention.

Another must-have title for Kingdom Hearts fans and action-RPG lovers, with enough juice to fill your summer thirst.

Even with some minor imperfections, the game is well developed and entertaining, enthralling with good storytelling and an nicely designed environment, enhanced by the excellent audio recordings.

Dungeon Fighter LIVE: Fall Of Hendon Myre doesn't work as well as the free-2-play edition. The poor animations, the lack of variety and clumsy controls are enough to ignore the Xbox LIVE version of the game. Just play the original one on PC.

Cute visuals, funny gameplay and pretty good Kinect controls, for a mini-games compilation unfortunately too short and repetitive to appeal a broader audience.

Theatrhythm Final Fantasy is an interesting way to celebrate a franchise. Instead of building up a boring collection of old games, Square Enix creates a brand new experience crafted around one of the most important elements of the Final Fantasy franchise: its awesome music.

The Wii version of Project Zero 2 has a good number of interesting changes, but the new control system spoils a quite solid experience. This creepy survival horror aged in a great way and if you'll be able to survive to the Wiimote/Nunchuk combo, you'll have a very good and scary experience.

The Secret World is a sort of a mixed bag. You have a very nice questing experience, a new way of developing your character and a stunning and dramatic atmosphere. But on the other side you have a lot of bugs, a boring fighting system and an half-developed PVP. Maybe in the next months it will be better, but you never know with MMOs.

Playing as a Vampire Lord is too buggy and clumsy to be fun for long. And that's a shame, because with more attention to the design of this form, Dawnguard could have been a better piece of software.

Table Top Tanks is a pretty good AR-based minigames collection for PlayStation Vita. When it works, it's quite fun, until you understand it doesn't have multiplayer online functionalities and it doesn't really last forever.

Great atmosphere and good potential for this Project Zero spin-off, that unfortunately fails in every other possible way.

The Amazing Spider Man tries to clone part of the epic success of Arkham City using the same mechanics in a different context. The final result isn't as good as the Batman game, but the global experience is still good enough.

A little more than previous edition, Pro Cycling Manager 2012 goes ahead with its personal travel to perfection but his step is quite little. Anyway, it remains the best cycling game of the year.

LEGO Batman 2 will be remembered for two reasons: it's the first spoken LEGO game of all time and it's also an open-world adventure. Not perfect at all, but a very good game indeed... can't wait for the Lord of the Ring's one!

Maybe Asphalt 7 is not so innovative as we might expect from the 7th chapter of a well known Gameloft franchise and yes, if you already own Asphalt 6 you could easily live also without it. But believe me, going wrong with Asphalt 7 is pretty impossible: great graphics, excellent gameplay, intuitive control system. Considering its starting promotional price, denying it a chance would be a huge mistake!

Sadly, Close Quarters is a perfect example of a "Call of Duty wannabe". This is a carbon copy of the popular FPS, disguised as a simple DLC. Even the game modes are the same. The lack of original ideas is sad, but it isn't enough to crush a good experience. The maps are interesting and if you're looking for something different from the original (and awesome) Battlefield gameplay, you could give it a try.

Another time, same old story. Resident Evil: The Umbrella Chronicles gets an hi-def-lifting and go straight to PlayStation Network. Not bad at all.

Spec Ops: The Line tries to offer new ways to play third person shooters. It's a more adult attempt to reach player's feelings but sometimes it fails in mantaining the tone of the production. Yager's game also lacks a strong multiplayer experience, without which it can't be a must buy.

A Diablo-esque game in a time when Diablo III is still the hottest game on shelves; the first dungeon crawler on 3DS, and with real time voice chat too. Heroes of Ruin is a good attempt to make a game like this on a portable console, but it is too easy and there's no end game at all.

The Metal Gear Solid HD Collection is a good deal, but the insane absence of Peace Walker spoils an otherwise good bundle. And the lack of the gameplay adjustments of the 3DS version of Snake Eater is another crazy issue. Both Sons of Liberty and Snake Eater are still great, anyway. If you can't play this package on PS3 or Xbox 360, the Vita Version is still worth of your money.

This Ratchet & Clank Trilogy is less useful than the Jak & Daxter HD Collection, but it still good, actually. Every chapter of this nice saga looks quite similar to the other Ratchet & Clank games, but if you like these kinds of experiences, you'll find tons of fun in this Trilogy.

Suda 51's most recent production could have been something very special, but it's just a little (very little) sweet lollipop with a bitter aftertaste.

Virtua Fighter 5 Final Showdown is the best 3D fighting game out there. Deep, fast and visually impressive, this game is a must buy for every virtual fighter who is looking for a great fighting experience. The cheap price is the icing on the cake.

Even if you're not a die hard fan of action shooters, it's unlikely that you will find a better refined and remarkably crafted PC version of a console game like this one.

Another little but tasty chunk of Batman-esque non-stop action, with the salty flavor of Robin, and the spicy touch of Harley "Sexy" Quinn.
