Marvel Avengers: Battle for Earth may be one of the most surprising Kinect titles of the year.

Medal of Honor: Warfighter's strong visual design and online gameplay are its most impressive features. That being said, gamers have little to immerse themselves with in the single-player campaign.

Codemasters once again proves their worth in the racing genre with undoubtedly the best of their F1 series to date.

Despite not being quite as expansive as the home consoles versions, this game certainly deserves the attention of Vita owners. If we compare this title to other handheld entries, we can see how ambitious Ubisoft was in trying to translate the full Assassin's Creed experience on a handheld.

In more ways than one, this fifth installment (of the core console franchise) feels like the definitive Assassin's Creed experience.

Bottom line, regardless of age, gender, or experience, this is a game that everyone will have fun with.

By combining realistic physics and incredible detail, CherryPop Games have designed a surefire hit as a first project. Pool Nation makes every other pool game obsolete.

The concept is just dripping with potential on paper, but once it actually hit my Vita, something seems to have been lost.

While it doesn't exactly innovate, there's nothing that could really keep me from recommending this game.

This franchise deserves better.

If you're a die-hard fan, you likely had FIFA 13 in your sights the moment it was announced. If you've been away from the series for a few entries, there's no better time to jump back into FIFA.

When it all comes down to it, these are without a doubt the best versions of these two fighting classics to date. Improved visuals, online play, and other tiny but sweet details make Marvel Vs. Capcom Origins fulfilling as a package. However, the same amount of praise can't exactly be said about the games themselves.

Dishonored is a sublime, unforgettable experience that any gamer absolutely needs to try.

Despite the incredible amount of effort and manpower that went into making this game, it unfortunately falls short of being the definitive RE experience Capcom had set out to offer.

If you're looking for a great roller coaster ride of a game, FOC will provide just that.

The game overall does seem like it was made in a rush, and in a last-effort attempt to keep the Test Drive series alive, but overall, it is enjoyable if you are an avid enthusiast for racing sims.

Madden NFL 13's newest improvements create an impressive foundation for future entries. While the Infinity Engine adds great physics-based play on the field, it's plagued by some growing pains that will be undoubtedly be worked out down the line.

Darksiders II takes just about everything that was great in the first game and made it better, which is exactly what a proper sequel should do. Even switching to a new character could have spelled disaster, but instead Death casts his shadow to such a degree that you will be saying "War who?" before you even leave the Forge Lands.

At the end of the day, HoR simply doesn't live up to its potential.

Dirt: Showdown is a simple, yet fun game with just a few things missing. The change of pace with the encouraged car-colliding is certainly welcomed, and well executed.
