    The attention to detail, the well-considered level design, and the sense of momentum that characterize the finest shooters are missing here. Aliens vs. Predator is sometimes enjoyable but never escapes an overwhelming sense of carelessness, so while it may remind you of the good old days, it fails to recapture them.

    Limited content and high-priced weapons and gear make the supposedly gratis Bullet Run more pay-to-win than free-to-play.
    • 59 Metascore
    • 55 Critic Score
    Merely an average adventure game with a high-profile license attached.
    • 54 Metascore
    • 55 Critic Score
    Lots of content with little depth saps much of the enjoyment out of A Valley Without Wind.
    • 55 Metascore
    • 55 Critic Score
    This real-time strategy game's convoluted controls make it hard to play, much less enjoy.

    Grand Ages: Rome is yet another generic city-builder set in ancient Rome.
    • 45 Metascore
    • 55 Critic Score
    This arcade game is relatively shallow and a pale imitation of its television inspiration.
    • 43 Metascore
    • 55 Critic Score
    This flaky action game falls short of the darkly funny teddy-bear rampage promised by the concept.
    • 45 Metascore
    • 55 Critic Score
    Iron Man's high-flying new adventure is hindered by erratic difficulty and repetitive level design.
    • 69 Metascore
    • 55 Critic Score
    The PC port of this inconsistent action adventure smacks of indifference.
    • 34 Metascore
    • 55 Critic Score
    The Expendables 2 feels like a natural extension of its source material, but it's likely to please only a certain breed of old-school game fan.
    • 50 Metascore
    • 55 Critic Score
    Not only a surprisingly difficult game, but it's also a fairly boring one... With a little more polish, Galerians: Ash could have been something special.
    • 65 Metascore
    • 55 Critic Score
    The game does have a solid and innovative franchise mode, but given the available choices for football sims on the console, it is tough to recommend.
    • 59 Metascore
    • 55 Critic Score
    This visually enchanting game tries to whisk you away to a young girl's dreams, but the often frustrating gameplay makes for a rude awakening.
    • 51 Metascore
    • 55 Critic Score
    A little dumb and a lot dated, yet still marginally enjoyable if you're into retro shooters with lots of kabooms.
    • 56 Metascore
    • 55 Critic Score
    Replacing a light gun with touch-screen support doesn't make up for Touch the Dead's contrived gameplay or its stiff, boxy presentation.
    • 67 Metascore
    • 55 Critic Score
    Touch Detective returns with wacky new adventures and a fresh coat of paint, but the frustratingly esoteric puzzle design is the same as before.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 55 Critic Score
    Does not offer enough excitement for the arcade crowd or nearly enough complexity for simulation hounds.
    • 70 Metascore
    • 55 Critic Score
    This series badly needs to learn some new moves.
    • 62 Metascore
    • 55 Critic Score
    A bland story in the single-player mode and a host of gameplay issues make Lords of EverQuest feel like a cheap knockoff instead of a worthwhile entry into an established genre.
    • 72 Metascore
    • 55 Critic Score
    Variety and character are treasures left undiscovered in the action RPG Crimson Alliance.
    • 68 Metascore
    • 55 Critic Score
    The visual excellence of this party-oriented fighting game can't make up for the fact that it's just not that much fun.
    • 59 Metascore
    • 55 Critic Score
    Die-hard real-time strategy fans may find something to like in Kingdom Under Fire, but everyone else might as well keep waiting for Blizzard's next big hit.
    • 63 Metascore
    • 55 Critic Score
    Adding zombies into the mix isn't enough to revive Undead Knights from its stale, typical hack-and-slash action.
    • 65 Metascore
    • 55 Critic Score
    Tekken Hybrid is a shallow collection that doesn't give Tekken Tag Tournament the rerelease it deserves.
    • 57 Metascore
    • 55 Critic Score
    Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3: Defiance is a competent though flawed handheld shooter.
    • 56 Metascore
    • 55 Critic Score
    The stellar artistic design shines, but the disappointing lack of strategic depth casts a long shadow over this lengthy adventure.
    • 48 Metascore
    • 55 Critic Score
    Hard Evidence offers few surprises and even fewer challenges throughout its five undemanding murder mysteries.
    • 59 Metascore
    • 55 Critic Score
    Wanted Corp makes traveling to an exotic planet and battling strange creatures a repetitive bore.
    • 58 Metascore
    • 55 Critic Score
    Mega Man Star Force 3 is another disappointing installment in a tired franchise in need of a reboot.
