It's a sleeping pill disguised as an online action game with mediocre graphics, bad controls, frustrations and most of all: boredom.- GameStar

Long live trash! Raven Software proves that even absurd stories can be entertaining, as long as there's a decent game to back it up. But there was a lot more potential.- GameStar

It's an improvement to ARMA 2, but it still includes some of the weaknesses. But now the game actually is what it should have been right from the start: a realistic military simulation that works most of the time.- GameStar

A great comeback for the Lego series with a great love for details and lots of comedy. But it's too easy for seasoned gamers and therefore targeted at a younger audience.- GameStar

A thrilling first person shooter with some flaws. If it wasn't for those unnecessary action interludes it would have been much better and probably even a great game.- GameStar

Toy Story 3 is obviously targeted at a younger audience or casual players and will keep fans of Pixar busy for some time. It's not a bad game at all, but older gamers may just be, well, too old to really enjoy it.- GameStar

It looks like Ubisoft can't leave the prince alone. This game looks a bit rushed and it's the weakest of the series. Nonetheless it's a good game and more demanding than the last one.- GameStar

After 19 years Team 17 excavated its classic Amiga game and it still has some charm today. But it's a game to play for half an hour a day at most due to its lack of variation.- GameStar

Are you good or evil? Or both? And should you buy this game? It may not be as good as Mass Effect 2, but it’s still a lot of fun to follow Mike through his adventures, despite some out of date graphics and the dumb AI, because as a role playing game, it just works fine.- GameStar

The best job of all may be to cound the daily revenue for The Sims 3 at EA, but this add-on probably comes quite close. Even though it's a bit more of the same, it's hard to escape the typical Sims charm.- GameStar

It’s like Mario Kart for adults and the best multi-player racing game so far. It’s easy to forget how long you are already playing and there’s enough fun in this game to last for months.- GameStar

It’s a lot of fun and it sounds like that, too. It’s great to race against friends again and again and there’s nothing better out there at the moment, even though it may not be a game to keep on playing in the long term.- GameStar

Don't forget to read the small print or else you'll get in trouble like Shrek. What may be the last of the Shrek games is also the best, at least for younger gamers, because it's not a very demanding game.- GameStar

This addon offers new challenges for veterans as well as improvements for beginners. Actually it's optimizing the whole game, not changing a lot, just making it better and more fun.- GameStar

Another clone of Defense of the Ancients and another good one. The huge team battles are very addictive and the game offers a lot of maps and heroes.- GameStar

Funcom turned on the afterburner and if you don’t join now, you’ll miss a wild ride. If you didn’t know what to do after reaching level 80, you are in for a treat.- GameStar

Old game, new graphics. Story? Who needs one? Mission targets? Nope. Just go and shoot everything until your hand hurts. The new graphics can't hide the fact that this game is hopelessly out of date.- GameStar

Sam Fisher is back. Conviction is faster, harder and offers more action than the predecessors, but it’s still a Splinter Cell game at heart. And for the first time, Sam Fisher is a real human character.- GameStar

The Whispered World is a stunningly beautiful adventure game with a great story for adults. It makes you smile, touches your heart, makes you sad and thoughtful. A little masterpiece with a small, but great hero.- GameStar

Don't expect this game to be a remake of the classic Mad TV game or you'll be disappointed. It may look similar, but some key elements of the classic game are missing. So it's just a solid simulation game.- GameStar

It took seven years to finish this game. It's a bit like a huge box of Legos without a manual. Lot's of great parts, but it takes some time and work until everything fits together. With a bit more design it could have been a milestone of simulation games.- GameStar

Sam & Max behind bars! That’s how the third season starts and it’s a great start, too. Lots of comedy, running gags, the return of beloved characters and new ideas - but still a bit too easy.- GameStar

It’s thrilling for the first hour, but then it’s just routine. There’s no way to try and find a clever solution for a problem because the game only offers a single one. That’s annoying even for die-hard fans of the TV series.- GameStar

On the one hand, there are the open world and the freedom to do what you want to do, on the other hand, the world is lifeless. It's a great game for some people, but the opposite for most.- GameStar

Hundreds of vehicles, hundreds of square kilometers – Avalanche has created the largest level for an action game so far. Some of the open world gameplay just seems to be there to add playtime, but the missions make up for that.- GameStar

This is a complete make-over of the series. It’s faster, more diverse, more flexible and because of these changes it’s extremely thrilling, too. There are a lot of ways to win, so trying out new strategies is very entertaining.- GameStar

The Tiberium saga ends while hitting rock bottom, being just a fast-food game without any depth. It’s not a bad game, but feels like any other game of the genre.- GameStar

The first add-on to Dragon Age: Origins continues the story and adds new areas, monsters, quests and skills. It may be a bit short, but it’s a great adventure.- GameStar

Chaos Rising is great addition to Dawn of War 2 and manages to impress with speed, thrilling battles and a motivating story – at the cost of less complexity and strategy.- GameStar

Instead of being an entertaining horror game, I’m Not Alone seems to be a zombie itself. Should you see it somewhere, remember zombie rule number one and run for your life.- GameStar
