    XEL
    XEL looks great on the surface, but unfortunately it has too many bugs and technical issues to warrant recommending it to anyone. The framerate drops and slow-loading zone transitions alone can cause some frustrations, but add in an uncontrollable camera that is overly distant from the action, difficult to detect enemies, and terrain that is easy to get stuck to - forcing you to reload from your last save point, and you have a game that is near unplayable in its current state. Patches may resolve these issues, but as of right now XEL is too frustrating to fully enjoy.

    Surgeon Simulator: Experience Reality
    Surgeon Simulator ER completes the requests by many VR folks for the original game to be played this way. It doesn’t present too much new in terms of gameplay or graphics. If you didn’t enjoy the original game, you’ll probably pass on this one as well. Surgeon Simulator isn’t for everyone and doesn’t have the mass appeal as say Job Simulator, but for those that found some fun and charm in the original game, Surgeon Simulator ER can give you a new way to play and some more enjoyment out if it.

    Deadfall Adventures
    Darkfall Adventures is a middle-of-the-road Lost World adventure, where our wisecracking Indiana Jones-like hero spends more time saving and re-saving the girl than recovering a purportedly priceless and powerful treasure that ultimately doesn’t come off as all that pricey or powerful in the end.

    Iron Man 2
    Iron Man 2 is better than your average movie game but it's still rather short and limited in scope. The visuals are great and the controls work well, but I have a feeling HVS could've done a lot more with the property if they had more time to work on the game.

    Lets Fish! Hooked On
    I really wanted this to be good but it turned out to be a total mess. Let’s Fish is comprised of a bunch of great ideas and potential that never come to fruition. Its gameplay is overly simple and the technical aspects of the game are at odds with each other. Just stay away...far, far away.

    Dragon's Lair
    With its Don Bluth animations and movie-quality production values, Dragon's Lair is the best looking game of the 1980s. Unfortunately, in order to look so good the game had to make a few sacrifices. As a result we're left with a shallow "action" game that is little more than Simon Says. Not even the gimmicky Kinect support makes this game worth playing more than once!

    The Chaos Engine (2013)
    With so many great ideas in The Chaos Engine, it pains me to admit that I didn't have much fun.

This enhanced version needs a few more enhancements to be ready for the 21st century!

    Deep Black: Reloaded is an underwater Gears of War clone. While a good idea in theory, the execution here is all wrong.

    Thor: God of Thunder
    Thor: God of Thunder is what one would come to expect with other movie-licensed games. The cinematics are sub-par, the combo system is quite repetitive, and the difficulty is skewed. The only redeeming qualities I found were using the leveling system to actually refill your health and Odin Force, and the effects of the elemental attacks looked cool, but the fun factor is just not there.

    Steel Battalion: Heavy Armor
    This is a game that left a lot to be desired. It's a mixed bag of good and bad, with the good being the graphics and basic controls and the bad being everything having to do with the Kinect controls. I know that developers want to utilize the Kinect, but it really should be limited to optional usage in a game like this.

    Randall

    Gallic Wars: Battle Simulator
    They say to shoot for the moon and if you miss you’ll be among the stars. Gallic Wars: Battle Simulator shoots for the moon but you quickly realize you’re not in a rocket ship but a bicycle with training wheels. Trying to fly a bicycle to the moon has a lot of issues, in this case it's the gameplay elements, the obscure camera angles, and the repetitiveness that has Gallic Wars landing in the grass five feet from takeoff.

    While it is provably true that VR can be a good fit for shooting games, it is not true that a game can simply be built for a VR platform without putting a lot of thought into the vast differences between a flat, finger-based model and the VR model. Sniper Rust VR does not demonstrate that any such thought went into at all. Do yourself a favor - try the free demo before paying for this one.

    Halo 4: Crimson Map Pack
    The Crimson Map Pack is a solid addition to Halo 4's multiplayer map lineup. The three maps included provide a nice variation in style and size as well as preferred game types for each. Although they are quality additions, none of them pack that special feeling that will make them an "instant classic" for the series.

    Gratuitous Space Battles: The Outcasts
    Part RTS, part tower defense, with a smidgen of casual gaming thrown in, “Gratuitous Space Battles” is a great deal of fun and surprisingly deep, especially early on while the player is exploring the mechanics. Definitely worth 17 bucks for the collector's edition.

    Gun Commando
    Gun Commando is a solid Doom clone with a number of fresh ideas. Unfortunately, it is plagued by imprecise controls and too many cheap deaths. Even with that weighing against it, this is still preferable to most first-person shooter games on the PS Vita!

    The Sims 3: 70s, 80s, & 90s Stuff Pack
    The clothing and furniture in The Sims 3 70s, 80s, and 90s Stuff pack are great additions to any Sims household as they successfully combine retro and modern visual styles. Ultimately, the stuff pack is lacking in content and is better recommended as a purchase when it's included in a sale.

    The Sims 3: Aurora Skies
    The Sims Aurora Skies is by no means the worst downloadable world, but it's neither the most perfect.

    Capcom Arcade Cabinet: Game Pack 1
    As a game hub, Capcom Arcade Cabinet delivers the goods. It's a good-looking program that is easy to use and packed full of games. Too bad this first pack of games isn't more impressive. 1943: The Battle of Midway is great fun, but Avengers left me cold. On the other hand, Black Tiger is free...just as long as you don't mind downloading a 2 GB file.

    Capcom Arcade Cabinet: Game Pack 2
    As a game hub, Capcom Arcade Cabinet delivers the goods. It's a good looking program that is easy to use and packed full of games. This 1985 pack is by far the highlight of the 15 announced games, featuring Gun.Smoke, Section Z and Ghosts 'n Goblins. All three games are made better when you tweak their options in casual mode and take full advantage of the emulation's rapid fire buttons. Definitely the pack to get.

    Capcom Arcade Cabinet: Game Pack 3
    As a game hub, Capcom Arcade Cabinet delivers the goods. It's a good looking program that is easy to use and packed full of games. This 1986 pack is wildly uneven. While Trojan and Side Arms remain incredibly playable, Legendary Wings drags this three-pack down. Still, I would take this pack over the dreadful set of games we got at launch.
