    Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines
    If you are a person who can't stand long load times, bugs and choppy graphics then avoid this game like the plague. But on the flipside, if you are a person who doesn't want to miss out on arguably one of the greatest RPGs to hit the market this year, then get out there and pick up a copy of the game.

    Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War II - Retribution
    The best Dawn of War II expansion and an excellent value. For $30, you get a solid campaign, tons of multiplayer maps, and the so-much-fun-it-should-be-illegal Last Stand mode, all wrapped up in a beautiful package.

    Virtua Tennis 3
    The game is surprisingly fun for a non-tennis fan, but it's overly simple at times. It's worth a try for most gamers, though, as it provides at least a few hours of entertainment.

    Pro Evolution Soccer 2012
    A solid simulation of the sport, PES 2012 is a good addition to the franchise. With a few tweaks, PES could return next year as one of the best soccer games available. For now, it will have to settle as just being a pretty good one.

    Call of Duty 3
    Engrossing, frantic and exciting.

    Tiger Woods PGA Tour 08
    Tiger Woods 08 is a solid game, but not great. It also doesn't offer enough new features to justify purchase.

    Lock's Quest
    Lock's Quest proves that it doesn't take a big name or big studio to make a must-buy title which will be a benchmark for years to come.

    The Darkness
    It's a very intense game in more ways than one. There is gore galore and foul language liberally spoken. The story is solid and adds to the action of the game. But it maybe just too intense and spooky for some.

    Alan Wake: The Writer
    The Writer focuses on the type of psychological subject matter that Alan Wake has been best with since its initial release, making it one of its better, more interesting episodes, despite its brevity.

    Bit.Trip Core
    If you like rhythm games and want a challenge, then by all means try it. If you're more the casual rhythm guy or gal, stick with the plastic instruments.

    Worms: Open Warfare 2
    If you're a veteran of the series and you want something new, there are a few new options and some sprucing up compared to past games, but this isn't the end-all-be-all for the franchise, and the customization really isn't implemented as well as it could be.

    Skate 3
    A great experience for skateboarding and extreme sports fans. Not perfect, but another superb installment to the series.

    Enslaved: Odyssey to the West
    It's easy to overlook the technical problems of Enslaved, simply because everything else is so damn compelling. This is not a checklist of what makes a game great, but taken as a whole, it IS a great game.

    Microsoft Flight Simulator X
    Microsoft's Flight Simulator franchise has been in the running for over 25 years, and the latest game, Flight Simulator X, improves on several concepts, and also unveils the most glorious visuals in a flight simulator ever, earning the title "The Biggest Game I Ever Had to Install."

    Resident Evil 5: Lost in Nightmares
    Regardless of shortcomings, this high-tension, semi-return to old-school survival horror is an enjoyable experience that longtime fans will adore and newer players will easily get into.

    Test Drive Unlimited
    TDU is a good online racing title and fits the bill for any racing fanatic. But the lack of general player life and some graphical faults knocked the score a little bit.

    Yakuza 3
    Yakuza 3 is the best game in the series thus far. It fixes a lot of the issues present in the first two, and adds a wealth of new mini games, side missions, and a deeper and more personal story that will reel you in.

    NBA Jam
    Though it's a sports game and not universally appealing, Jam fans and basketball fans alike will love this return to form for a classic franchise.

    Metroid: Other M
    Certainly not the best Metroid game, but definitely a great game in it's own right.

    The Bigs
    A baseball video game that will appeal to many casual gamers as well as hardcore baseball guys.

    Scribblenauts
    In some ways, Scribblenauts is a great success; its primary conceptual design elements are unarguably pioneering achievements in gaming. In other ways, however, it falters, primarily in the playability of the game it offers within the playground it establ

    Lost Planet: Extreme Condition
    It's the charm and pacing of this title that keeps you engaged, excited and almost constantly fighting.

    • 80 Critic Score
    Eternal Sonata
    Eternal Sonata is an RPG filled with charm and style, but lacking in content. Those uninitiated with the RPG genre will get a lot more out of this than regular RPG gamers, but even the most hardcore will love Chopin.

    Depths of Peril
    Depths of Peril is the epitome of a good indie game that isn't quite great. It brings some new and innovative stuff to the table, yet does it in a way that many people won't recognize until a big-budget title takes its ideas.

    • 85 Critic Score
    Mega Man 10
    Mega Man 10 is a wonderfully challenging package wrapped up in a charming, 8-bit time capsule. It has its tongue planted firmly in cheek and delivers a ridiculously fun experience for all.

    Worms Reloaded
    Worms Reloaded may not offer enough in the form of new content for those who have played past games in the series, but taken on its own the game is enjoyable and newcomers should definitely consider giving it a try.

    GrimGrimoire
    It may be average when it comes to combat mechanics, but it gets a high score in the story and character department. If you want a game with a plot that makes sense and a memorable cast, this is for you.

    Trauma Center: Under the Knife 2
    The fact is Trauma Center 2 may not be one of Atlus' greatest achievements in the narration department, but the amount of tiny tweaks and fixes they made to the core Trauma Center DS gameplay to make it even better is more than enough to give this one life.

    SSX On Tour
    Although the game suffers from a few shortcomings with clipping issues and a slightly confusing monster trick system, "SSX On Tour" lives up to the high quality expectations set by previous SSX games.
