New console, new puppies, new success. If you, or your children, have missed the first Nintendogs, this must be one of your 3DS launch titles. For the rest of the world, this updated version of the original game doesn't deserve much attention.

Pilotwings Resort is a perfect tech demo for the new Nintendo 3DS. The way the game uses the 3D is perfect and gives the experience more depth. Anyway, the lack of any kind of multiplayer mode and of a new island are two huge problems.

Super Street Fighter IV 3D Edition is a great portable version of the Capcom popular fighting game. The differences between the traditional controls and the new version for the Touch Screen are big enough to change the original gameplay, creating a new and interesting version of Street Fighter.

Rayman jumps in the 3rd dimension with this new edition of the second chapter of the series. He's in good shape, but now we want him to be the star of a REALLY new adventure!

Three of the best action games of the past generation in one, shiny package, with additional Trophies and 3D support... what else could you ask for?

The Da Vinci Disappearance is a good DLC, interesting for everyone who is looking for a couple of hours of nice single player story and, above all, for the most hardcore fans of the Brotherhood's multiplayer mode.

Crysis 2 is an excellent shooter, suggested to FPS maniacs and eye-candy graphics-addicted alike. The singleplayer experience is a strong challenge under the mental and skill side; this, along with good longevity for the today's shooter standards, make Crysis 2 a must for everyone with a lust for carnage, despite the fact that it's not innovative as the first chapter of the series.

If you like tennis you can't miss Top Spin 4, a game that improves the last chapter of the series in every possible way. Like Tina Turner said in 1989, this is "simply the best" tennis game of all time.

This is one of those few games that justify Sony's portable console's existence. If you own a PSP you absolutely cannot miss it.

PlayStation Move Heroes is a fun and engaging mini-games compilation that will have you make a good use of Sony's motion-sensing game controller.

The PC version of Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood is much better than the previous chapter of the popular Ubisoft franchise. The more user friendly DRM, the inclusion of every DLC of the console version and the better optimizations of the game, grant a great experience to who will decide to buy this product.

DeathSmiles is a brutal shooter with pretty (but a little bit dated) visuals, solid gameplay mechanics and a short life span. If you're an hardcore fan of Cave games and you're searching for another tough challenge, this is the SHMUP you were waiting for.

Another thrilling (but not flawless) ride for the Motorstorm series. The new, apocalyptic scenario delivers excellent track designs and incredible visuals, but the entire single-player experience feels a little bit unbalanced. On the other hand, sound and multiplayer options are top-notch.

THQ did a great job creating this tablet: uDraw is a solid piece of hardware, really different from the cheap third parties accessories. The lag is quite a problem, but the final experience is anyway funny and enjoying.

Although it can't be defined as an absolute purchase for any Reach owner, this DLC will surely satisfy Halo: Reach's hardcore user base, providing them enough contents to keep them busy until the next, predictable add-on.

Although the quality of at least three of the four games included is unquestionable, the Dreamcast Collection suffers from the lack of a real optimization, especially from a technical standpoint, that disfigures in comparison with many other recent remakes.

Homefront is a good game, capable of entertaining the fans of the FPS genre only for a short period of time in singleplayer. The overall quality of the multiplayer is good but it's clear from where Kaos Studios took the inspiration, and it's not able to surprise us with entirely fresh new ideas.

Stoked: Big Air Edition is a good game dedicated to the most hardcore snowboard fans. If you're looking for a snowboard simulation, this could be your best choice. The budget price and the good gameplay are enough to balance the lack of a proper career mode.

Considering that the adventure lasts for just one hour, only real fans of the franchise should consider the possibility of buying this DLC. If you're not among them, look elsewhere.

This new edition of Tactics Ogre is one of the most interesting remakes of the last years. Square Enix has done a great job on both the design and the gameplay of the game, creating the perfect tactical experience for all PSP owners.

Shogun II is a comeback to the past, but it's also a game able to show the path followed by Creative Assembly in these years. Well-balanced, with a superb multiplayer mode and with the always-present attention to detail, Shogun 2 is the new Shogun of strategic games.

Torchlight is a great game created for those players who love to collect items and to slay brainless monsters. The game structure is almost perfect, but the lack of any kind of multiplayer mode and the absence of an interactive camera are quite a problem.

Despite a single player campaign that tends to reapeat itself for every faction, the multiplayer experience and the price are more than enough reasons to convince you to play Retribution.

Better graphics, more quests, more gadgets, more enemies and... more Pokémons! Black and White are, simply, the best Pokémon games of all time and two of the best RPGs available on Nintendo DS.

"Tycoon world" rises again with Cities in Motion! The necessity of building a prefect transportation system brings us new forms of entertainment that partially suffer the lack of a multiplayer/sharing mode.

Despite the fact that Rift is a well crafted game, with some fresh ideas and a nice class system, its desire to confront World of Warcraft ("We're not in Azeroth anymore") forces a point-to-point comparison where the Trion game doesn't succeed beat the Blizzard champion.

Although, visually, it still fails to reach standards of pure excellence, Dragon Age 2 proves to be a fantastic fantasy-RPG that will undoubtedly satisfy both fans of the genre and potential newcomers.

If you love puzzle games and almost impossible challenges, probably SpaceChem is the best you can find. If headaches and sleep time cuts don't scare you, probably SpaceChem is still the best you can find. Do you also love chemistry? Take that 20 bucks and go buy it immediately!

The HD remake of Beyond Good and Evil is as good as the older version. The game is still awesome and deserves your love. If you are looking for a great 10/15 hours long adventure for few money, this is your choice.

560 Microsoft Points for a new 3-4 hours quest, three new locations, new outfits, new achievements and a bunch of robotic dogs... if you're a Fable fan, you can't miss it!

God Eater Burst is a Monster Hunter clone game that delivers a nice experience to the player. Capcom's series has a much more epic scale, but the frantic and more dynamic pace of Namco's game will make you feel satisfied.

Looking for a crazy difficult game? Hard Cops: Uprising is your best choice! This Contra remake is an awesome example of the old school madness, where players have few lives to beat the hell. A great design and an high production value are great extras to create a fantastic experience.

With gorgeus visuals and funny gameplay, Kirby's Epic Yarn is an amazing looking game that blinks his eye to such masterpieces as LittleBigPlanet and Super Paper Mario.

Knights Contracts has nice ideas and too many technical issues. With rivals like Ninja Gaiden, Bayonetta, God of War and Devil May cry, this Game Republic title has no chance to gain your attention.

Although its lacks of significant innovations, Miniland Mayhem proves to be an excellent product that will surely guarantee hours of fun to anyone willing to test his skills with a challenging and addictive puzzle/platform adventure.

Fight Night Champion is a nice change for the franchise. The Champion Mode is a good idea, but some design problems need to solved for it to be really awesome. The incredible visual aspect and the new control system are perfect to bring Fight Night to the next level.

Thanks to its addictive gameplay, compelling mechanincs and over the top narrative, Bulletstorm represents a breath of fresh air for any FPS fan out there. The Duke has finally found a worthy rival. Gearbox is warned!

In this first try of the series on PS3, Ar tonelico Qoga: Knell of Ar Ciel steps on the 3D court and gives its fans a complete overhaul in terms of gameplay. Despite some graphical/technical problems and minor bugs, this third (and final?) chapter of the series has a lot to offer and will keep you entertained for a long time.

Body and Brain Exercises is a nice experience. The game has some hardware issues, but considering the lack of good alternatives on Xbox 360, you should buy it if you are looking for a Brain Training-like title.

The slowness of the control system is evident and sometimes compromises the gameplay of an otherwise interesting (but far from perfect) old school arcade game. With a joypad, this game is a must.

The graphics are mind-blowing, the atmosphere adorable and the combat system surely rewarding, yet as it is Twin Blades feels like a wasted opportunity where style wins over substance.

Capcom manages to create a pocket version of its popular masterpiece that works astonishingly well: Street Fighter IV is the very epitome of a must buy!

At the end of the day, we can't consider Dungeons a legitimate successor to Dungeon Keeper. In particular, the final evaluation has to consider the price of the game: on Steam, you can find much more complex and fun products, for a lesser price.

The conceptual and graphical re-visitation of this remake hasn't unfortunately resulted in what fans were hoping for. Haunted House is in fact a mediocre remake that will disappoint any fan of the original.

Trinity: Souls of Zill O'll is far from perfect or innovative, but that doesn't means that fans of the genre won't be able to appreciate its fairly good gameplay and its addictive progression system. Hoping that eventually the time of top notch jRPGs will come again, Omega Force's last creation might manage to keep you busy for quite a while.

Despite some interesting game design ideas, an admirable longevity and brilliant graphics, this is unluckily just another shallow tie-in.

This game is for gamers who love jrpg, manga, anime, moe and those kinds of entertainment. The main concept is funny enough to catch the player's interest, and the gameplay is quite good. Unfortunatly, the graphs engine is old and clumsy.

Marvel Vs Capcom 3: Fate of Two Worlds is a great fighting game, but this time Capcom has made a couple of bad mistakes. The lack of a basic tutorial for new players and some issues with the online (no connection quality bar and no spectator mode) ruin the online experience. This game is great, but needs some fixes with a couple of patches.

Gray Matter is probably the best adventure game of the last years: it provides new ideas and fresh experiences, finally treating players as adult people. Perfection is not of this world, but this game goes very close to it.

Thanks to its fascinating concept and engaging gameplay, Stacking proves able to assure a unique gaming experience for both PSN and XBLA users. Although the game has its faults, like an excessive accessibility, Tim Schafer's newest project surely deservers attention.

First Strike is a nice map pack with a lot of variety. Treyarch did a great job with the level design, offering different settings with this valuable downloadable content. Anyway, 1200 MP are too much for a single map pack.

Prepare to be the main character in the last chapter of a spectacular and frantic war that will blow you away. With revamped multiplayer, local co-op, Move and 3D support, Killzone 3 delivers one of the best 2011's FPS experiences.

Pick up an arcade racing game and mix it with little bits of RPG and MMO. Blend them together and you'll have a juicy cocktail called Test Drive Unlimited 2.

A good and solid follow-up, Rearmed 2 adds the "new" ability of jumping and refreshes the swing mechanics of the original remake, but fails in the co-op mode and in other, little but annoying chunks of gameplay.

Magicka is a perfect palliative for those waiting for Diablo III; thanks to a shining gameplay and a genuine freedom, the last title from Arrowhead is as funny as only indie titles are. Magic.

Necromoprhs, alien monsters, blood and tons of corpse. Extraction is 100% Dead Space, with a deep gameplay, powerful plot and great graphics. A perfect porting, with a perfect control schema: probably, the best usage of PS Move seen so far.

Spare Parts has a good concept and a clumsy realization. The idea is nice but the big number of technical problems transform a potentially good experience in a missed opportunity.

It might be extremely derivative (N.O.V.A. totally looks and plays like H.A.L.O.), but this is a fun and rewarding First Person Shooter that's perfect if you fancy some pocket shooting.

A very nice racing game with perfect visuals and responsive controls. Maybe you will not play it for a long time and it's a shame that you can play only as a cop, but it's still funny and enjoyable, wih a lot of achivements, cars and races. If you are collecting the best titles on iPad, you can't miss it.

Broken Sword: Shadow of the Templars is one of those immortal classics that everybody should play at least once in their life: if you hadn't the chance to live this amazing adventure don't skip this app.

Mario Sports Mix lacks the depth of other Mario's sport titles, but delivers a lot of fun especially in multiplayer. Basketball and Hockey will gives you plenty of replay value, while Dodgeball and Volley need a good amount of patience, especially in single-player.

The latest Yuji Naka's creation is a cute action-platform that, for a very reasonably price, delivers a charming (but a little bit short) experience.

Not just a copy of the console game, but a real story that will tell us what happened before the events narrated in Dead Space 2. This iOS dedicated version of the latest Visceral Games creation captures very well the atmosphere and the gameplay of the saga. Maybe it's a little more action than survival horror and sometimes is too repetitive, but in the end it's a solid game that will not disappoint Dead Space's fans.

Considering the quality/price ratio of some of the real masterpieces available on the App Store, Ultimate Mortal Kombat 3 will truly satisfy only real fans of the franchise, leaving the rest somewhat disappointed.

Infinity Blade is a brand new game with an old style mechanic. Repetition is its core, as you try, death after death, generation after generation, to kill a God King and his bruisers. With never seen before visuals for a portable device, very intuitive controls and an affordable price, if you have an iPhone or and Ipad you must buy this game.

Even if the graphic engine has not been revamped, this second chapter of the famous iPhone FPS is still a very nice product. With a fabulous 10 player online mode and a lot of missions to attend, you'll have a lot of fun, even if it's a "more of the same". You should wait for a price cut only if you have the previouse game and you are not interested to multiplayer.

This edition of Mass Effect 2 is undoubtedly the best, and most complete among those available on the market. If you own a PlayStation 3, and don't want to live a life full of "gaming regrets", you really can't miss out on this epic sci-fi adventure.

Sometime a good idea can shape-up a good game. That's not the case. Multiplayer in Mindjack could've saved the day, but all the other stuff will give you only an enormous headache.

If you love multiplayer FPS, you'll surely find in Breach a lot of pros: frenetic gameplay, stunning physics and environmental interaction and, last but not least, a perfect skill system for the player. It will never be remembered as the most innovative FPS in Xbox Live, but it accomplishes its job well, and that's enough.

With its incredible visuals, a precise control sistem and a perfect career mode, Real Racing 2 is the must have racing game for iPhone and iPad. Thanks to the many level of configuration, both the casual player and the simulation addicted can enjoy the game at its best. In a simple word, this is what Gran Turismo should be on a portable device, and don't forget the 16 players online multiplayer!

Ghost Trick: Detective Fantasma is a great adventure game with a strong personality, an awsome look and pretty dialogs. The original gameplay is able to keep the interest constantly alive, but the lack of variety and the trial and error mechanics could be a problem for someone.

An action-packed MMO, with some important flaws that must be corrected if Sony wants to appeal a vast audience. Controls can become an issue if you play it on PC and quests are a bit too much on the grinding side, but the combat system and the customization options are fun. With some improvements this game could find its own place in the MMO jungle.

Dead Space 2 is bigger, better but less scary than the first episode of Visceral Games' horror franchise. This is not a crime, though, because the game is really awesome. The multiplayer is interesting but looks just like a simple extra to the main game.

The substantial lack of innovations makes Re:coded a game that might be hard to appreciate for both fans and potential newcomers to the franchise. Anyone who's had the chance to play the old games for PS2 might in fact see the same strengths and weaknesses for which the brand as always been known for.

Its clear tendency towards the arcade end of the off-road spectrum may disappoint some racing fans, but if you're not among them Nail'd will definitely guarantee you hours of fun and intense over the top action.
