A gorgeous adventure with a touching story is marred by mildly frustrating moments and mystifying puzzles. Recommended for the old-school adventurer.

A lot like LEGO Star Wars without either of the licenses. It's still good fun, and very, very forgiving, meaning that its well-suited for a younger crowd. It's a bit short, but as you continually unlock new abilities, you can go back and explore previosly unreachable parts of levels you've already completed. And the seamless drop-in experience doubles the fun.

High quality platform action wrapped in beautiful graphics and sound. If the game had only been longer and its original ideas a bit more polished, this could potentially have been one of the best games for the format.

The PS3 version of Flight Control is a decent port of the iPhone original, but there's nothing new here to justify the inflated price tag. However, if you don't have one of Apples devices but do have a Move controller, Flight Control HD offers plenty of light entertainment at a reasonable price.

A blast from the past, a type of shooter that just isn't made these days. Ridiculously fast, absurdly gory and deliberately silly. Certainly not for everyone, and the online play still needs some work, but if you're in any way tempted by this game, you should go right out and buy it.

Not the best action game to come from Platinum’s hands, and nowhere near the best Metal Gear game. Revengeance doesn’t live up to the franchise and the huge expectations placed upon its shoulders, but it remains solid enough to stand on its own. Just leave your expectations at the door.

Many of the new inclusions feel like forced additions that have only been added to the mix because they worked in competing games, and because something new apparently has to happen. It's still a romp against friends on the couch, but you need to take the time to bend the game to your will first.

Basicly the same game as previous releases, but that will certainly be enough for most players. It was for us.

It’s no match for the likes of Gears of War or Call of Duty, but if you can ignore the technical issues, Special Forces: Team X still has a lot going for it.

If you've already blown through Rayman Origins with four buddies, Scarygirl will have little to offer you in terms of challenge. If you're new to the platform genre, however, Scarygirl is a fine little experience that won't frighten anyone.

The story is drawn-out and not very interesting, and the loading times are often excruciatingly long and frequent. But high production values, the charm of the Disney universe and the depth and challenge of the combat system means that Kingdom Hears: Birth by Sleep is still worth picking up.

In order to trade blows with the best in the genre, all the minute details have to be in order, and sadly, this is where Grand Slam Tennis 2 stumbles. While it's a good effort, there's little reason to pick this game over the other, better tennis games out there.

UFC Undisputed 3 is a better game than its predecessors, but while the developers get a lot of things right, it still feels as if they're scared of moving too far away from the foundations they laid with the first game. Until that happens, it's hard to imagine a UFC game that truly lives up to the potential of the sport.

A fine soccer experience that will be able to satisfy even the most eager, but it also has components that are in need of improvement in the next entry in the series – most of all the online possibilities.

Shank 2's biggest problem is that it still insists on turning everything up to 11 – there's never room to breathe, and every scene tries to outdo the last one. And even though Shank 2 is definitely a better game than Shank, it should have been even better than it actually is. Luckily, the multiplayer is surprisingly robust and, depending on how much time you plan on playing it, make up for the shortcomings of the campaign.

A cute and fun little Halloween-game about kids playing dressup and having cool-looking Final Fantasy-style battles in their imagination. Short enough not to outstay it's welcome, but long enough to justify the price.

On one hand, revisiting Infamous’ Seattle with neon powers feels a bit samey, and the game’s mission and sandbox structure is starting to show its age. On the other hand, First Light is still damned good entertainment value for the price, and has enough storytelling and technical chops to grab the player.

Doesn't offer anything we haven't seen before, but Puss In Boots wins us over by offering the same joyful mood as the film, and a range of surprisingly fun mini games.

The LEGO MMO has many kinks, quirks and weird design choices at the moment, but if you approach the game with patience and curiosity, there's plenty to enjoy. Just don't expect a virtual version of LEGO bricks just yet.

Duke Nukem Forever is far from perfect and certainly has its flaws. But it also has its moments, quite a few of them actually, and reminds us of happier times where shooters weren't as pompous and self-important.

If you’ve never played Metro before, Redux is absolutely worth getting. The action may not be on par with the genre’s greats, but both games make up for that with atmosphere, exploration and setting. Just be aware that the Redux version of Last Light has few changes compared to the original.

Do we finally have a great Spidey game? Well, no, but we do have a pretty good one. While the concept of playing as four different versions of Spider-Man is brilliant on paper, three of the four are a bit too similar when it comes to gameplay, and while Shattered Dimensions is fun (and it is!), it also lacks variety and ends up feeling a bit tedious. A game best enjoyed in short sessions, then.

You have to wonder whether being based on an old classic has held GoldenEye 007 back more than serving as a welcome inspiration. Reliving sections of the old game is fun, but in the grand scheme of things, new levels play better are look more interesting. Fans of the Nintendo 64 classic don't get much reason to switch, and Bond-fanatics are better off sticking with the movies and books. But if you do all your shooting on the Wii, GoldenEye 007 is a safe bet.

A surprisingly decent movie tie-in well suited for younger players. Not very challenging, original or unique, but still fun and easily accessible. And actually a completely new story with the cool cowboy.

Only recommended for those who haven’t played the game on PC or console. The iOS port is good, but if you’ve played the original Bioshock before, you’ll feel like something’s missing.

The graphics and atmosphere are well done and colorful on every screen, and while the characters are a bit too talkative, they are also funny and sufficiently silly. But the story and gameplay seem entirely detached as usual, and it's a shame that the story devs and puzzle devs apparently didn't have more meetings together.

Short but entertaining DLC package, that should entertain fans of Metro’s bleak world for a few hours.

A well made and well rounded strategy war game, but not one that hooks you in the same way as the genre greats. There are enough competent strategy offerings on the PC that this isn't an obligatory purchase, but the lack of good strategy games on the consoles means that R.U.S.E. is definitely worth checking out on those platforms – it even handles well with the controller.
