    Go Vacation with its numerous activities and beautiful environment offers more than many of its competitors. Not all the mini games are equally fun, which is often due to controls. While there's some appeal specifically for singleplayer, it's obviously the multiplayer aspect that promises good entertainment.

    If you want to get frustrated because of a missing tutorial, no‚ level restart'-option and long loading times you should try the stunt racer Rumble Trucks.

    Playing Where is my Heart? is like an indie retro-adventure with a philosophical background: puzzle and art combined in a healthy and addictive mix – featuring the windowed levels, which challenge the player every time they enter a new level.

    Payday: The Heist offers a great atmosphere, a well-done coop mode – a must-use feature due to a lacking AI – and fast paced action.

    Despite a short – albeit intense – campaign and the outdated graphics, thanks to the great Spec Ops mode and the extensive multiplayer options, Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 is one of the best shooters this year.

    Sad, but true: Almost every Naruto game for PSP is better than this one. Weird that this game takes away all of Naruto's flair, so even fans could be very much disappointed by Ultimate Ninja Impact.

    Zombie Apocalypse: Never Die Alone combines simple Gameplay with an homage to Pure Pwnage and it has zombies in it. What more could you want? Fans of either humorous takes on the undead or the Pure Pwnage show will enjoy this one.

    Definitely a good addition to a soccer fan's 3DS library, though the long term replay value is cut short by the absence of the online multiplayer present in PC and console versions.

    With a long campaign, A Game of Thrones: Genesis will captivate fans of the original series in particular. It's not a particularly good-looking game even by strategy standards, though.

    A worthy successor. If you like rapid fire without tactics or much of a story, this one is for you. I found it a bit monotonous in the long run – but for a quick session of mindless fun, Serious Sam 3: BFE is perfect.

    It's cute, you can customize your EyePet and it has some sort of rewards, too. Not exactly motivating, but it's always good for some cute moments.

    WWE '12 is a step in the right direction. The arcade controls make the game more accessible, there's a nice selection of superstars and the multitude of options for content creation is incredible. However, many gamers simply want to play, and unfortunately, the restrictive Road to WrestleMania campaign is the biggest weakness. I note that with a wooden expression (like an ingame superstar) and have to deduct points. A shame: the game offers tons of wrestling atmosphere and is a must-have for WWE fans.

    A retro diamond in reminiscence of old school pen & paper role-playing games and game books – worth to bring some fantasy to your mind.

    Cities XL 2012 is a solid city builder, but unfortunately, nothing more. Play depth isn't as big as one might expect, the graphics are more resource hungry than truly good, the trade system makes you hope for online multiplayer in vain. That, and it's really just an add-on to Cities XL 2011.

    Professor Layton and the Last Specter is an awesome new adventure with Hershel Layton, packed with tons of riddles in an stunning storyline.

    War of the Worlds breaks my heart, because on one hand it has this nice dark setting and melts your face with Patrick Steward's awesome voice acting, yet its gameplay is so frustrating that you tend to toss your controller aside.

    Batman: Arkham City saves the DC and Marvel universes from a dire gaming year 2011. I can only utter my fulsome praise to Bruce Wayne, Warner Brothers and Rocksteady for a furious game. Chapeau!

    Nothing new under the sun – that's spot-on. CoD: MW3 is a great game with no innovation. The graphics are outstanding, the sound effects amazing and the multiplayer as good as ever. The short campaign, the poor soundtrack, indestructible background objects and the shallow story, told in a confusing way, are disappointing though. Still, the game is very intense and well done. A must buy for all the fans.

    It's kind of fun for a quick game, but considering how quickly BurgerTime: World Tour turns boring, your 800 MSP may still be better spent elsewhere.

    Despite the great efforts in the graphics department and the nice Soundtrack, Disney Universe is a disappointingly boring gaming experience.

    Kirby's Return to Dreamland is a solid platformer for the whole family. The game is pretty easy and offers a lot of things to explore and use (challenges, hidden ways and power ups), but it's definitly not as good as Kirby's Epic Yarn.

    It was a good idea in 2003 and would've been a visual stunner back then, today, it's a poor attempt at delivering on a good concept. Too many bugs and crashes even months after release. The idea of building your own empire has a certain appeal, though.

    If you ever wanted to know what it's like to beat up passer-bys, defend yourself against rivals and use a giant sex toy as a weapon, this is your best shot. Lots of humor, a great coop mode and a bunch of side quests will bring joy to the players, there's no doubt about that.

    Need for Speed is back with a story, but lacks innovative elements and a motivating single-player experience. Hopefully EA will continue to improve the story and doesn't loose sight of the single-player game because of focusing on the Autolog.

    The refreshed version of RACE 07 is still one of the best WTC racing simulations. Only the graphics show that this game is four years old.

    Sonic's debut on Nintendo's 3DS is a real success. The combination of the two different hedgehogs in the colorful 2D and 3D environments is pretty cool. The game is a little too easy, but there's tons of Sonic flair and enough content to truly satisfy the player.

    X-Men is a license with tons of potential that goes untapped in X-Men: Destiny. Choices don't really matter, the graphics look quite dated and still don't run smoothly. The boss fights and iconic characters are the saving graces that will still have the title find its way into fans' collections.

    Monotonous gameplay, poor level design and Spidey not quite doing his thing. True Spidey fans should really skip this game and wait for a better one to feature their favourite hero.

    Captain America: Super Soldier on the 3DS is an experiment gone wrong. With artifically stretches Levels and a monotonous gameplay, it simply grows boring way too fast.

    Dragon Ball Z Ultimate Tenkaichi is the best Dragon Ball beat'em up to date. It relates the entire Dragon Ball Z saga with barely any story gaps and includes original scenes from the anime. The graphics are well done and the gameplay is surprisingly diverse for a beat'em up. The only problem are the controls, which are not as exact as they should be. Overall, this game is a must-have for any Dragon Ball Z fan.
