Epic climax to a legendary saga. Awesome cinematics, cool battles, plenty of variety, great handling, near-to-perfect mechanics: Great, greater, Gears of War.

This shooter doesn't take itself too seriously and features platformer passages as well. Despite its cute appearance, don't underestimate The Gunstringer: It can be stressful at times.

A worthwhile add-on to its predecessor. Most weaknesses like clunky animations and a troublesome interface have been eliminated, and you'll play about 14 hours - so much more than these very popular mini-DLCs nowadays.

Driver: San Francisco continues a great series in a worthy manner.

Duke Nukem Forever would be quite decent if one felt entirely certain it's intended purely as a self-parody. As is, it doesn't do the expectations, the buyer or the Duke justice – oh, had he rather remained a vaporware legend!

Warhammer 40k: Space Marine is exactly what you'd expect: bloody, brutal, bombastic. The mix of hack'n'slay and shooter really won us over.

It's somehow odd: Its style is psychedelic at best, the graphics aren't quite up to date and the fighting's a bit repetitive. Nevertheless, the charme of the game and the great atmosphere make up for that, big time.

If you like mowing down hordes of enemies and are looking for a mix of hack'n'slay and shooter, Warhammer 40k: Space Marine will provide great fun for a couple of hours.

Fighting, action, shooting – that's Warhammer 40k: Space Marine in a nutshell. Thanks to the great presentation and credible story along with the characters that Relic has created in collaboration with Games Workshop, this action title is captivating from the start.

Really just a quick game for LAN parties as there's no long-term motivation. But wait and see what the future holds: Coffee Saint Studios has announced there'll be numerous improvements to esure the game won't win the title of most beautiful indie game on the market not just for the graphics.

Resistance 3 honors its predecessors with a great symbiosis of tough action and thrilling story.

A lovely interactive story that enchants with funny dialogues and profound backgound.

The Witcher 2 offers awesome sword fights, cool graphics, charming characters, a compelling story, lots of bare skin and a decent shot of vulgar conversations. Damn good.

All in all I have to say arcade-racing fans should take a look at Driver: Renegade 3D. The game is funny, challenging and a real arcade-racing game with a lot of content and pretty cool comic style scenes.

Dead Island isn't quite the fantastic game the players worldwide have been anticipating for years, but it is a solid survival horror game, with a nice 4 player coop mode, a lot of upgradable weapons and a cool skill system. If you like to kill zombies, zombies and zombies in an open world, then Dead Island is for you.

Zombie fans, you want this game: chain reactions, sarcasm, upgrades and short load times keep hunters motivated – relax with clever action.

Don't waste your time and money on this game unless you are the biggest fan of Ducati of all time and want to spend time with horrible snail speed graphics and without any story.

Nice details, the challenge levels and the good AI difficulty make this chess simulator a must-have for fans of chess on the PSP.

An exceptional expansion pack that further adds to the base game's medieval atmosphere.

If you're into platformers and love to play retro titles, this one's for you – especially considering this game costs peanuts. Be prepared for but don't fear the extreme difficulty beyond level 19.

All in all Fiction Fixers: The Curse of Oz offers a good mix of typical hidden object and adventure gameplay. The story is entertaining, the controls are easy to learn and the followers add a little extra depth.

It's the first adults only game for Kinect, and it's one that will test your nerves: flesh, blood and gore en masse won't please everyone. For Kinect, it's one of the best games available.

Cars 2 is a great fun racer with easy tracks and classical weapons. On the flip side, the big turbo works poorly, you have to play the lenghty tutorial no matter what and Cars 2 has an impertinent rubberband AI.

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.

Toy Soldiers: Cold War is a good conclusion of this years Summer of Arcade. The game play elements not only tieing well into each other but also being great fun by themselves is key to this. Whoever enjoyed the single player experience will volunteer for the Toy Soldiers army in the brilliant coop-mode.

Crimecraft: Bleedout offers many opportunities to customize your character but it looks like a remake of All Points Bulletin.

Don't buy this game unless you are in search for a sheer endless row of races without any story and a poor graphics engine as well as tricky controls.

Deus Ex: Human Revolution doesn't just tell the story of super-humans, it also offers superb gameplay. There is an awesome balance between freedom an linearity, a stunning story, an authentic and detailed world and pretty long playing time. All in all, Deus Ex: Human Revolution is the savior of a gaming summer devoid of highlights!
