    A thought that kept coming back to me was that maybe this game should've been released along with the Move controller to give it a stronger launch. Perhaps, but the fact remains. Sorcery is an entertaining game.

    Ghost Recon: Future Soldier is a game that excels with its fantastic campaign, although I'm somewhat dissatisfied that I can't move dead bodies, which is possible in other games featuring stealth. Anyway, you will definitely have a great time with this game if you like tactical shooters.

    Max Payne 3 may not move the action genre forward, but it doesn't matter. It can be as retrogressive as it wants, as long as we are treated to well-written stories and fantastic action, starring one of the most interesting heroes in gaming. And then it doesn't matter if he shaved his head or not.

    Starhawk is a very basic but entertaining MMO shooter with a strategic base building twist - jet fighters turning into battle mechs is rarely a bad idea. The single-player experience is almost laughable, but the online multiplayer experience is addictive.

    Sniper Elite V2 made me watch enemy soldiers getting penetrated by bullets several hundred times and still I didn't get tired of the game. That is a feat in itself.

    Datura is an interesting experiment in game design. Not quite sure whether it wants to be a piece of interactive art, or an adventure game, Datura stands on the fence in-between. Lofty, gorgeous and almost Lynchian in its narrative and exposition, it slightly fails at actually being a good game. Whether Datura will be judged as proof that games are art, or that arty games can be created, it's worth taking a look at, at least for its uniqueness.

    It has been a long time since I was so utterly bored with a game that I have been with Fabel Heroes. It tries to do a little bit of everything but fails to do anything really well. All in all a very uninspired title that I can't really recommend to anyone.

    Prototype 2 is one of those games that makes you feel like the ultimate badass. Radical Entertainment knows how to do destruction in a great way. They might not know how to tell a good story, but they sure know how to make an extremely entertaining experience.

    Legend of Grimrock is old school in every way possible from the character building to the ancient controls and dark catacombs. But if you can overlook the initial awkwardness, Grimrock has some nice surprises. If you enjoy games like Eye of the Beholder and Ultima Underworld back in the days or if you're interested what your dad played when he was young but with updated graphics, this is the game for you.

    Bloodforge is a God of War for Xbox, except that it's not very good at all. It's a promising idea turned to nothing by too many mistakes.

    Skullgirls is a joy to play, and the price tag of 1200 is amazing, seeing as it contains just as much as its full-priced counterparts.The only negative point is the lack of characters, which shortens the games longevity, but that doesn't stop it from being amazingly fun. Skullgirls are here to stay.

    StarDrone Extreme is a game that most people will beat in a couple of hours. But I think many will return to improve their high scores. If you get used to the controls and the tempo it's a real bargain and very entertaining, despite its flaws.

    Delivers countless hours of gripping story and challenging missions, and as soon as your done you'll want to play it again to see if things unfold differently the next time around. The best RPG of 2011 is the best RPG of 2012 as well.

    Overall Rhythm Thief & the Emperor's Treasure is a must-buy for all 3DS-owners. You will be treated to a great adventure that you'll want to play over and over again and more crazy minigames than you ever dreamed of. Now I'm waiting for a sequel.

    A really good RPG that takes your inner pirate spirit for a ride. Despite a few graphical bugs this game is for sure a day one buy, and a vast improvement on the original.

    Chaining together long stunts to take out bombs in style while simultaneously racking up huge points can be satisfying, but repetition soon sets in. With the slightly imprecise controls, one-screen levels and play suited for shorter sessions The Splatters would feel more at home on a mobile device than the TV screen.

    Silent Hill: HD Collection is a very lazy product. The only thing that really has been upgraded is the resolution of backgrounds and characters, which means that the effects and other things remain the same. The two games that are included are fantastic, but the lack of the original is a disappointment.

    Fez
    FEZ uses the entire history of video games as a background for the gameplay. Wherever you go, you will instinctively know what to do. All you have left is to be mesmerized by the adventure and solve countless of impressively clever puzzles.

    When you name a game Hard Lock and the mechanic with the same name is the worst part of the game then it's time to rethink your strategy. Otherwise it's a decent action orientated flight game with a good mix of missions, but with way too repetetive gameplay.

    Kinect Rush is an attempt to bring back Disney games to status they had twenty years ago. The presentation is superb and looking at a trailer you might actually think its a good game, but sadly its not. The Kinect controls are frustratingly inconsistent and after just an hour or two the game feels extremely stale.

    Silent Hill: Downpour is yet another half-decent survival horror game in a series that, just like many other horror series, is waiting for something to happen. This eight episode of Silent Hill is acceptable and interesting enough to take you all the way through, but on the whole as a game - not much more.

    Confrontation is a classic action-rpg without any real finesse. This is a title that neither does role playing fans nor lovers of the old game justice.

    Tiger Woods PGA Tour 13 is a great golf game that takes the series in a new direction. More direct control of the shots and better physics makes it a lot more demanding, but also a lot more fun.

    Lacking the clarity of vision and focus from the earlier two games, Ninja Gaiden 3 no longer feels like a proper Ninja Gaiden game. Without Itagaki at the helm, the first concession seems to be the difficulty and the precise controls. In an attempt to broaden the appeal of the franchise, the design decisions have removed the soul of the series and the result is a lackluster button mashing experience intercut with quick time elements.

    At its core, Diabolical Pitch showcases how a smaller game should be structured - with regards to both the game idea and distribution channels. But at the end of the day all you can do is play locally with a friend and aim for the leaderboards, and that's simply not enough. A promising idea isn't enough to automatically be a homerun.

    Even though it borrows a lot from other driving games, Ridge Racer: Unbounded still manages to find its own identity with fast-paced racing in high-octane environments. It may not feel like a Ridge Racer game at all, but who cares when the racing is this well-crafted?

    There is nothing that's really bad about Wheels of Destruction. The problem is that nothing is really good, either. It's not a horrible game by any means, just an average and uninspired vehicle combat game.

    Kinect Star Wars has come a long way since it first was shown at last years E3, but it's still far too simple to leave a lasting impression. The controls are solid though.

    This latest expansion does exactly what says on the box. The new city, jobs and items are fun, but it feels as if Maxis are running out of ideas, and need to borrow things from previous parts of the series.

    Devil May Cry HD Collection is an absolute must for fervent action enthusiasts, and showcases Capcom's pedigree. The HD quality shines through in almost all aspects, except perhaps the menus and the film sequences, but this is proof that quality never goes out of style.
