    Despite an uninspired melee system and a plateauing story ZombiU does a solid job in bringing an old genre to a new console. This is survival horror how it's meant to be.

    The story is well told, a lot of variety is to be expected and the sound is pretty good: For me, The Sims Medieval easily is one of the best games in the series, if not the best. If you're in search for a surprise, this game could be just for you.

    TERA may not offer enough to dethrone World of Warcraft, but it is a wonderful game with a thrilling story and loads of action. Above all else the combat mechanics are a great innovation.

    Hamilton's Great Adventure is far from being a milestone for the video games industry, but, and that's the important thing, it sets a few new standards for the puzzle-genre and has the ability to leave u speechless because it doesn't meets your expectations but outnumbers them! It has a magnificent control system, a great coop-mode, an idyllic atmosphere, great and funny characters and all this wrapped up in a great and lovely told story. So put your hat on your head, grab your spyglass and get ready for a lot of adventurous hours.

    Some changes have been made on the graphics and a ten hour epilog was included, which makes the game interesting for newbies as well as fans of the original game. While the storytelling and the gameplay are nice, the graphics aren't as good as in other PS3 RPGs and it's probably a bit to childlike, but all in all Tales of Graces f is a pretty fine remake.

    The more than ten year old game is still charming and will attract younger players. Let’s hope Klonoa 2 will hit the Wii as well.

    The variety, the daily schedule, the economic factor and especially the discovery engine will capture you again and again until the last island is lifted and you can retire happily.

    If you like colors, you will like de Blob 2. Roll around and color your surroundings, so that all the gray fades away. If you're more the goth type of person, you will probably drown Blob in black ink.

    Of course there are a few glitches in the game, but Zumba Fitness: Core is nonetheless a great addition to every Kinect collection. The exercises are demanding and not ideal for newcomers but Zumba enthusiasts will spend fulfilling fitness hours with the game.

    Full House Poker isn't your typical online poker game, where you play for tons of money, it's merely that sort of game poker fans who have no interest in playing professionally wish for.

    Dragon Quest Monsters Joker 2 is a pretty cool game for all the collecting and training game fans out there. It combines fascinating gameplay with the style and monsters of the Dragon Quest series.

    Skylanders: Spyro's Adventure uses a new peripheral, which looks and works fine, but you have to buy all the other characters, there are no in game unlocks. Still, it's fun to summon new characters by using a peripheral or play local (coop or versus) with friends. Unfortunately, the game offers little freedom, doesn't really make use of the PS3's graphics capabilities and is rather on the easy side (though that may be age-appropriate). All these quibbles aside, the game is simply fun. The story and storytelling are nice and thus you'll keep on playing, forgetting time.

    Ace Combat: Assault Horizon is the best part of the Ace Combat series yet, particularly thanks to the Dogfights.

    If you have some resistance against frustration and want a short but intensive trip into the New Super Mario Bros. Universe, you should keep that addition in mind.

    If you're looking for an alternative to the classic FIFA big field play and enjoy acrobatic tricks, FIFA Street is a good choice. Likely to really shine not as a replacement for FIFA 12, but as a fun alternative.

    The ultimate retro love letter has convinced me to remain in the past. Highly addictive, great allusions towards other games, a perfect presentation and cool gimmicks make 3D Dot Game Heroes to one hell of a must-have for retro fans, even though the engine doesn't handle the lighting very well.

    Tiger Woods PGA Tour 13 is far more than just a more of the same. Thanks to many new features and a great Kinect implementation, this game is a fantastic sports game for newbies and pros as well.

    Sound and music are spot on – crank up the volume! With Insanely Twisted Shadow Planet and its strong atmosphere, the Summer of Arcade once again delivers one of the best Arcade titles of the year.

    All in all, Worms 2: Armageddon can only be recommended to all fans of the franchise. It's great fun and really entertaining, especially the multiplayer mode.

    Haunted has what it takes: a great story, some intrigueing characters and a touch of innovation on the puzzle level. Unfortunately, logic flaws, too short a duration and an ending that seems too much of a sales pitch for a sequel ruin the overall impression. Could have been great, is merely a touch above average.

    Fans of simulations and games like Socom – Confrontation can buy the game without any fears, all others should properly wait for Modern Warfare 2!

    Not a simple clone of the first game. There are some major improvements like the graphical effects, the new skills and spells and the setting is darker than in Years 1-4. The co-op mode is damn fun and the typical Lego humor is present. If you like Harry Potter or the Lego games, go out and get the game.

    Singularity comes up with a lot of different enemies, weapons and techniques which you can use in connection with your Time Manipulation Device. It's an exciting ego-shooter which also comes up with a good multiplayer part which is a lot of fun.

    I expected an awesome desert shooter, but I only got a midclass shooter. There is to much scripting, an environment with few details and nothing special. The multiplayer mode looks fun but over all it's not enough to be a summer highlight.

    Quantum Conundrum immediately reminds players of Portal, yet it never really matches its charms and humour, but Chell's fans should definitely try this one while waiting for her (possible) return.

    R-Type Dimensions is a good adaption with very few changes. This game is definitely able to guarantee some hours of entertainment.

    In a world where darkness reigns and the street are engulfed with blood it needs a tough guy like Garcia Hotspur to survive and rescue his loved one. Shadows of the damned is an amazing survival-horror-game with an unique atmosphere and an amazing gameplay. Though the levels are a bit linear the strange and dark scenery make the game a must have, not just for horror fans. Not to forget about Johnson, your loyal companion, who guides you through the underworld, always having a good joke on his lips, ensuring a lot of funny moments.

    The idea of little ninja robots is flashy, and thanks to the various maps and game modes it is really nice to play. You will need some time to get used to the gameplay, but then you will have fun.

    Simple, but addictive, thrilling and yet funny: The only flaw is a missing plot. Great jump'n'run with a scent of puzzle.

    Band Hero guarantees great multiplayer fun for fans of music. The game is easy to learn and brings about enough excitement and variation.
