    Elefunk is a puzzle game with which both architects and normal gamers will have much fun. The building of bridges needs insight, but are never impossible to solve. More levels would have been nice and we also had some trouble with framedrops. Anyway, this game is well done.

    Golf: Tee it Up on Xbox Live Arcade is a fun game which certainly deserves your attention. Although it only boasts two environments with eighteen holes each, the great playability and fun will make you come back for more. If you like golf, you should definitely give it a try.

    Schizoid is a nice game that excels in the cooperative mode. Unfortunately the game feels a bit unpolished in places. The A.I. has its problems and the audio-video combo sometimes fails to deliver. Nonetheless, this game is a nice addition to your arcade games collection.

    Exactly the right things have been made more simple and the essence of the game is still there.

    Although it isn't easy to release a decent RTS game on a handheld, Civilization: Revolution succeeds with ease. Even after you played several scenarios the game still doesn't bore you. Off course the DS version lacks the overview of it's console counterpart but is definitely worth your money.

    Final Fantasy Fables: Chocobo's Dungeon is a game with a decent concept what eventually shows up in the storyline and gameplay. However, the downside of this all is the poorly translation and the somewhat disappointing graphics. In al fairness a pretty decent game, but never rises above the average spin-off game.

    The most important reason why Beijing 2008 doesn't work is that the events become plain boring after a few tries. After an hour of playtime your fingers will hurt from the button bashing. The multiplayer is alright, but you would do well to spend your money elsewere, unless you're a complete (Olympic) sportsfan.

    Unreal Tournament 3 is a fantastic shooter that you'll enjoy for weeks to come. There's great balance here and there are five new maps. A sure bet for fans of shooters.

    If the game would be sold for half the price it is being sold now, than it might be interesting for the non-Aerosmith fans.

    A strategic role playing game that does the right things, but hasn’t made any progress from the previous games. Thanks to the quality and the quantity of the product it’s still a very entertaining game and for gamers that haven’t had the pleasure to play the previous games, it’s even better.

    Overlord is still a very nice game a year after the original release. The graphics are a bit dated though, and the PlayStation 3 version isn't adding anything really fresh from the original, even though the developers had plenty of time.

    The game can be compared to an agressive puppy without potty-training. You want to keep him so badly, but everytime it seems to go right, it bites, scratches and sh.ts on your carpet.

    In the previous Battlefield games we had to do without the singleplayer mode. Fortunately Bad Company is changing that.

    The realistic look is one we like. You just want to keep on playing.

    Top Spin 3 for the Nintendo DS seems a reasonable game at first, but soon it unveils itself as a shallow experience. There's little variation in the gamelpay and it's not clear if the developers were focussing on realism of arcade.

    SimCity Societies with its expansion Destinations doesn't offer you enough new stuff to keep you going. This title seems to be aimed at people who love the Sims series, because it uses elements from that game as well. Be warned, this game is very repetitive. The essence of the series seems to be lost.

    Equally addicting as its older brothers. But not suited for long sessions as you might find yourself with a cramped wrist at the end of the day. Some nice new features and a solid tracklist, although it lacks some variation. A succesful conversion.

    This wacky racer sucks about as much as the cartoons. There's no good reason to play this game. It's about as interactive as its cartoon brother. Better spend your cash elsewhere.

    Space Invaders Extreme is a surprisingly pleasant sequel to the original game. The gameplay and style have been overhauled to fit more in this time and it only has a positive influence on the concept. The game just works and is a great addition to anyone’s collection.

    It’s almost like Taito didn’t know why Arkanoid is fun. With Space Invaders Extreme they really went in a new direction and made a great remake of a classic game, but Arkanoid DS is too conservative and the innovations that are there only undermine the concept.

    Secret Angent Clank is a game with two personalities. It has the sneak missions with Ratchet, with an irritating camera, and the action missions with Captain Qwark, which are very entertaining. If you can handle some frustration, this game might be a nice snack for in between.

    This is the best and best looking Dragon Ball Z game that has been made. Every fan should buy this game.

    This is a terrible action game. The fighting system isn't working properly, the missions aren't offering any variety and the visuals are dated. The game hasn't recieved the care the series obviously deserves.

    But because the game is so fast, you move faster than the camera. This results in you overlooking some enemies.

    Wow! Codemasters managed to invent the golden formula for a racing game. The intensity, the recklessness and all the cool cars make GRID awesome.

    One of the most entertaining licensed games of recent times, without it being innovative. The gameplay is decent and diverse and the graphics are good for a product like this. It’s a little on the short side, but if you enjoyed the movie you’ll have a hard time not enjoying this colorful action game.

    In LEGO Star Wars you were mostly doing power attacks on your enemies, in Indiana Jones the adventure and puzzle elements are more important.

    The controls might look simple at the beginning, but you'll soon find out that the game has more depth than you thought.

    The game lacks real character, but it also brings an almost childish enthusiasm to the player that makes up for it.
