Game mechanics offer not enough variation to pin me to my pad. For 1200 MS Points a game simply has to offer more.

If you ever wondered how life would be when working within the Mafia, Mafia II is probably your best shot. Stunning story, great sound, cool videos and much variety in the missions show off what a shooter can be.

Transformers: War for Cybertron is an exciting game which allows you to experience the time before the films as one of three Decepticons or Autobots. You take part as an important member of Decepticons or Autobots and have to destroy a lot of Transformers shooting at them or hitting them with your melee weapon.

From the beginning, The Maw convinces with lots of charm and will definitely tie you to the screen. Sad enough, the motivation to play the game again, is not very high.

The loose controls and the lack of a story doesn't really matter next to the humor and fun of Raskulls, especially when you play with your friends on- or offline. A demo is available, too.

Concerning gameplay, this game won’t be on top, but the fusion of collecting, trading and gaming makes Battleforge unique. Even if you have never played a trading card game in real life, this title won’t disappoint you!

It could have been something really big, but the remake of the good old Syndicate from 1993 is just a solid FPS. The storytelling is not stunning, the missing freedom and some technical issues drag down the overall impression. It's a quite solid game, but nothing more.

The Night of the Rabbit is a solid and magical adventure that can be enjoyed by both younger and older players. Even though younger ones need a little bit more patience than adventure-veterans.

The game is definitely a solid exponent of the Naruto-series on the PS3, although some fans will be disappointed because of the disdainful synchro. On the whole, Naruto: Ultimate Ninja Storm combines adventure-elements with thrilling combat-action.

Playstation All-Stars: Battle Royale is for sure the best fun-brawler yet.

All in all I can recommend this game to hardcore anime fans. It's a pretty cool game with a deep storyline, nice high-quality cutscenes and a stunning atmosphere. Be aware, if you don't want to click through lots of dialogue, you should keep your hands off this game.

Its main features are the high frame rate and the massive amount of brutality. Nevertheless, Shank is worth the low price and fun for at least some evenings.

Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days is another epic video game by Square Enix and Disney and brings informative insight into Roxas' story and Organization XII. Every Kingdom Hearts fan needs to have it. If you're not a fan, but still interested, get yourself a copy of one of the older games and start playing the epic adventure.

Fans of the series as well as lovers of open-world jump 'n runs will be completely happy with this worthy successor. The harmonious comic style, the variety of playable characters and the many different missions contribute to a game which is just slightly let down by a certain repetitiveness in gameplay.

Overall, I could recognize some regress concerning Pro Evolution Soccer 2009. The handling has become trickier and although Konami bought the licenses for the names of the players and teams, this list does not contain all names or the right ones.

An adventure shocking like a Stephen King Blockbuster. But it never gets too obvious, the horror elements are all psychological. Great atmosphere, and aside from the slow pace of the game, it works out quite well.

You're a fan of logic, trial and error? If yes, you should consider taking a look at echoshift. It's great to play, the first 20 missions are for warming up – and further levels are next to hell's kitchen, so don't expect it to stay casual! Travel through time, but look out for the origami.

Even though The Next Big Thing seems to have a lot in common with the Runaway trilogy, it is an absolutely great game. What a shame that the puzzles are not always as challenging as you expect them to be.

As a single player, you won't get much out of Green Day: Rock Band. The career mode isn't nearly as excessive as it was in The Beatles: Rock Band, and so it's just another great multiplayer game.

Deep Silver and Daedalic Entertainment have done a great job in not trying to bring the pen & paper gameplay to the PC, but choosing the way of the adventure. Subsequently The Dark Eye: Chains of Satinav is more like an interactive novel – a good one for that matter.

Hydro Thunder Hurricane is a fast racing game for casual players and fans of the Burnout series.

A lot of jumping and a repetitive gameplay does not make only Alice go crazy.

Overall Spider Man: Dimensions is a pretty cool game for Nintendo's Wii. Even if the bad control lowers the score, the entertaining HQ videos and the cool graphics convince.

Finally, I can say that Stronghold was implemented very well for this MMO, and I eagerly await the final version. But we should not forget that Stronghold was released back then in the year 2001.

The way the story of the Ninja Naruto develops seems to be very appealing and sophisticated. Suitable for both, Naruto-veterans and –newbies!

Batman: The Brave and the Bold is really funny and challenging. There are some challenges and some boss fights combined with 2D-jump'n'run action. You'll fight against some bad guys with Batman and some of his friends like Green Arrow, Red Tornado and many more.

There are some improvements compared to the prequel and racing atmosphere is guaranteed.

ClaDun x2 offers no improvements over to its predecessor. Though some of the graphics will probably remind you of real classics like Secret Of Mana or Zelda, the game isn't in their league. The story is the most boring since Pacman and sound track is nothing special. The gameplay though is well done and very extensive, but you will miss a good turtorial explaining it all. The freedom of the game in character design is great, too, as are the controls. Who likes monotone dungeon-crawling will like this game, but real RPG fans won't.
