    Crash City Mayhem
    Unfortunately, this is a very short pleasure, as there is no multiplayer mode and a lot of content is missing. Nevertheless, in its short time it offers quite some variety.

    The Last of Us
    Flawless in its ambition and almost perfect in its execution. A brave and remarkable game quite unlike any other.

    Return to Castlerama
    Adventurous gamers who have been waiting for a new, open gaming experience should play this game.

    The Inner World
    Despite small flaws, I have to admit, that I really liked the game. It is probably not the perfect adventure, but undoubtedly a great game.

    Mario & Luigi: Dream Team
    The battles prove your skill, the humor will make you laugh and the design of La Dormita and its dream-pendant are gorgeous.

    Magic: Duels of the Planeswalkers 2014
    Magic: Duels of Planeswalker 2014 is not a bad game, but it isn't the full Magic-experience either. Real innovations are missing and even the new Sealed-mode is a nice idea, but not very well implemented.

    The Wonderful 101
    A motley action-firework, which partly does not shine, but still is a lot of fun.

    Killzone: Mercenary
    Definitely the best and the most beautiful shooter on the Vita and should be in every collection.

    Giana Sisters: Twisted Dreams
    With its wonderfully designed stages, the cool soundtrack, exciting boss fights and comfortable learning curve Giana Sisters: Twisted Dreams is a whole lot of fun - only we missed a co-op mode a little bit.

    Defiance
    Defiance succeeded in making us patiently wait for the upcoming patches that are supposed to compensate the game’s weaknesses. The graphics aren’t more than okay, the story currently is lacking depth and the AI couldn’t act more predictably. Nevertheless, it’s this incredible MMO feeling that definitely saves Defiance from failing and provides decent fun.

    Pressure
    Pressure is fun. That’s why we get back to it from time to time. It’s not designed to keep you going for hours, it’s more suitable for a quick round during your lunch break. The witty story, its decent sound and graphics and the fact that it’s simply to pick up compensate for the lack of variety in gameplay.

    The Basement Collection
    This one’s not only for fans of old-school hard-core 2D platforming, but also for those being open to experimental games with unusual topics. Edmund McMillen’s indie games contained in The Basement Collection provide the proper stuff for some entertaining hours. Just the responsiveness of the controls could be improved a little.

    Urban Trial Freestyle
    This game is a whole lot of fun and extremely addictive, with its graphics being appealingly realistic (nice camera panning included), so that you quickly become completely absorbed. Urban Trial Freestyle easily motivates you so that you don’t even realize that you give a track the 25th try.

    Injustice: Gods Among Us
    Injustice: Gods among us is a rock-solid brawler. The game offers visually impressive fights and detailed character models alongside a substantial single-player campaign and an enjoyable trashy story. The super moves are superbly exaggerated. Only the controls and the very meager multiplayer are minor weaknesses of this beat ‘em up.

    Far Cry 3: Blood Dragon
    Far Cry 3: Blood Dragon is a tribute to the trashy action cinema of the 80s and early 90s. With all the quotations and references to popular movies and franchises Blood Dragon is a feast for nostalgics. Although the gameplay mechanics here and there suffer from the same weaknesses like Far Cry 3, this is a must-have for fans with a lot of content at a reasonable price.

    Star Trek The Video Game
    The best aspect of this game is probably Chris Pine & Co. lending their voices to their digital counterparts. Even the most loyal fans of Kirk, Spock and McCoy will struggle to find more positive features apart from that. With its poor graphics and animations, the questionable AI and the mindless story Star Trek: The Game gets in line with all the other license games that should better be left in the shelves.

    Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate
    Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate for Wii U delivers an authentic and fascinating world to explore. The many different items can easily trigger a serious collection mania and its motivating quests and the variety of monsters and locations make the game a recommendable choice.

    Choplifter HD
    Choplifter HD is a remake of the successful classic helicopter game from 1982 – so our expectations were pitched quite high. Unfortunately this game is far from meeting them. The repetitiveness in gameplay and its non-compassionate presentation make it, in our opinion, nothing to recommend.

    Sly Cooper: Thieves in Time
    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.

    The Walking Dead: Survival Instinct
    Squandered potential. This is what we thought of after having played The Walking Dead: Survival Instinct. The lame story, unfinished gameplay, lots of bugs and errors and the stale graphics form a game we unfortunately cannot recommend at all. In contrary to Telltale Games's title based on the graphic novel, this is a waste of a formerly promising license.

    Army of Two: The Devil's Cartel
    Provides co-op fun in its purest form. But the game not only scores with its fantastic co-op mode, but also with the variety of playable weapons, the sound and its thrilling atmosphere. The only minor disappointment comes from its visual realization, which appears a little bit antiquated. Nevertheless this is another superb entry in the Army of Two franchise.

    Sniper: Ghost Warrior 2
    With its visuals, the shallow storyline, its limited size and gameplay failures, Sniper: Ghost Warrior 2 proves that games being delayed several times often show deficiencies in quality, which results in an unexpectedly low fun factor. The chance to surpass its predecessor unfortunately hasn't been taken.

    The Sims 3: University Life
    Although it's not the hotly anticipated The Sims 4, this add-on delivers enough fresh content to make fans of the franchise happy and busy. Its new faces, careers, location and items will ensure continued fun until the next entry of the series surfaces.

    BioShock Infinite
    BioShock Infinite is simply gorgeous. When we made our first steps into the world of Columbia we were completely overwhelmed. It's a game which is only slightly let down by its very low difficulty level. The absorbing and twisting story puts BioShock Infinite on the throne of shooter gaming.

    Disney Epic Mickey 2: The Power of Two
    A solid game, although there are some weaknesses, some of them caused by Oswald being this AI teammate. The freedom you have to explore Wasteland as you wish and several great approaches in the matters of gameplay and story are unfortunately let down by some serious framerate issues and the fact that it's simply too easy to lose the thread.

    Art Academy: Lessons for Everyone
    New Art Academy has a great deal to offer. Easily comprehensible lessons, masses of utensils, comfortable sharing options and the possibility to use an image of your choice as template. It is just a tiny bit of a shame though that the game doesn’t rate your creative masterpieces and that there’s no online database where all units created by users are collected.

    Castlevania: Lords of Shadow - Mirror of Fate
    With Mirror of Fate the iconic franchise finally returns to the 2D world - with success. This way back to its roots is definitely enjoyable, but still something's missing to reach the grandeur of the series’ famous installments. Nevertheless, both gameplay and visuals are great. There are some minor balancing problems, but all in all Mirror of Fate is a must-have for fans of the genre.

    Rocketbirds: Hardboiled Chicken
    A real gem for every game collection. We felt greatly entertained by its black humor, its sarcasm and the brutal comic action. The controls which are easy to pick up round out this enjoyable package which is already whetting our appetite for the second installment.

    Gears of War: Judgment
    This prequel isn't just a visual delicacy. Gameplay-wise it reaches heaven-like levels. We especially enjoyed the Declassified missions. And although the single-player suffers from some minor AI issues, the co-op mode manages to satisfy.

    SimCity
    Our general impression was: SimCity is good fun. Unfortunately, the game is let down by some serious server breakdowns leading to quite long waiting times and the fact that it doesn't really have a proper single-player mode. By addressing these issues and providing the possibility not to only be able to build cities along with other hobby mayors the developer could easily develop into a buy recommendation from our side.
