Cars 2 on the handheld PSP is a simple but enjoyable slot car racing game that won't disappoint if you care about the characters. Decentf or a quick romp, but try before you buy.

Life of George is fun in optimal conditions. If the light is good and you´ve got a friend to compete against, then this augmented reality/LEGO building game works surprisingly well.

It's impossible to cover all the many small adjustments and tweaks of this year's edition, but the overall result is a much more well-rounded experience. It's not difficult to argue that this is one of the best games in the series yet.

This will possibly be the last big release for the DS, and in that way it's a fitting end of a console era. It shows the handheld at its best with gorgeous pixel graphics, well made stylus controls and plenty of original ideas.

The Adventures of Tintin has its ups and downs, and reminds us at times of Another World and Prince of Persia, but in the end it doesn't have enough on offer to really recommend.

The many layers of mechanics are simply too obscure if you haven't played the predecessors to death. Possibly the most complex game in the tactical RPG genre to date, but we just wish the developers had spent as much energy on introducing and explaining the mechanics as they did tailoring the game to existing fans.

Without plastic figures, Skylanders would have been a lot less interesting. But the way the developers have managed to include them in every aspect of the game makes it a surprisingly positive experience.

Dance Central 2 has obviously been made with passion and love, and isn't just a quick cash grab. Compared to its predecessor, it has better songs, more forgiving gameplay and the option of two-player dancing, which is easily the most important addition.

Gameloft takes their Modern Warfare-clone and improves on everything. A good singleplayer campaign complements the awesome multiplayer mode. Lots of perks, killstreaks and great variety in the maps (which this time around are much larger end better designed). This is truly Gameloft's finest game yet, and the best shooter on iOS!

Battlefield 3 is amazing. The single player campaign is definitely the weakest link, even though it's more than just decent. The co-op missions are fun, but online multiplayer is the main reason you should get Battlefield 3. Here, the game doesn't disappoint in any way and stands as the strongest entry of the series so far. This is the best multiplayer experience I've had this year.

The production values are incredible. This is truly an amazing game to look at. This time around the story feels a bit more like something you could get away with if it was a tv-series - too many loose ends and not something that fits a game release schedule. Drake is still great to look at, and the multiplayer is a blast. And you know more than anyone if that is enough for you.

Despite a decent combat system and some surprisingly good animations, the many issues hold the game back from anything more than an average score.

Even with a few flaws and missteps, FIFA 12 is a solid soccer game that will satisfy anyone who's been longing for just that on the 3DS. EA's clear understanding of the sport has led to an entertaining game that soccer fans can easily spend hours on, even if there's room for improvement.

If you've already played the game on PC, you can safely skip is re-release. This is a game for console owners, and then only for those most happy about the Crysis series. It's not a bad game, but the little issues, the inconstant quality and the lack of multiplayer means you have to consider this carefully: How fun would it be to go back in time and play a game, everyone talked about four years ago? The answer will decide whether you should get this.

Offers a much more entertaining mix than many of the other sports titles we've seen on both DS and 3DS. It's not a game that will keep you captivated for months, but has plenty of fun for short bursts of high score chasing.

There's no doubt of the developer's intention of creating a God of War-like adventure starring Thor, but pretty much nothing works in the 3DS version. It's one of the crummiest titles we've seen on the handheld so far, and one that doesn't really get anything right.

You have to figure out whether or not you find the Bleach universe interesting, because that interest needs to be there lest you grow tired of the simple combat system, the limited amount of backgrounds, the confusing story and the levels that quickly begins to repeat themselves.

In many ways, Off the Record is a better game than the original Dead Rising 2 with a better save function and a parallel universe setting of sorts. But it's also the SAME game, and if you've already played the original, there's little point in getting this. Only Dead Rising newcomers or absolute die-hards need apply.

It's a game that entertains, and important elements like the controls and simple menus deliver the goods. Yet we doubt that we'll remember it when rounding up the many great XBLA releases this year in a few months.

Forza 4 offers the most well rounded experience to date. It oozes of love for motorsports and car culture, while giving you easy access to the cars of your dreams on the most beautiful and and challenging tracks across the globe. It has enough width and depth to satisfy both arcade and simulation fans, and Forza 4 conquers the genre throne once and for all.

Only two out of the six games in this collection is worth your attention and not even the newest versions, and that's just not good enough. Only for the biggest fans of the pill-eating yellow glutton.

If you're pining for a handheld substitute for Gears of War, look no further than Shadowfingers brilliant Shadowgun. At a tenth of the price of Epic's blockbuster, recommending this one is easy.

It's a shame that a title that actually tries out some new ideas for Kinect doesn't manage to leave a better impression. For once though, the blame shouldn't be put on the motion sensor, but rather a lack of attention to graphics, sound and story.

If you loved the crash mode in Burnout 3: Takedown, enjoy pinball machines (but pine for more control) or you're just a high score junkie, have no doubt: Burnout Crash is one to get.

If you enjoy games like Painkiller and Serious Sam, Hard Reset is a game to get, but if you're not into old school shooters, you should steer clear. It's very much a niche title, but if you belong to that niche, it hits all the right buttons.

It's impressive to see how thirteen years later, Radiant Silvergun is still among the finest shoot 'em ups ever made.

A frantic shoot 'em up that throws new ideas at you constantly, but ends up punishing the player with an unfinished quagmire that wont appeal to anyone except perhaps the most dedicated genre fans.

An entertaining and high-flying arcade racer, and while it's an explosive affair, it will also have you longing for more content after a few weeks.
