No More Heroes is a very good game with some very disappointing glitches and let downs. You will enjoy this game for at least one time if you manage to survive the dull mini games.

Fans of the original will only see him in his glory days as they did 10 years ago, but modern gamers will see the rotten body for what it is and will, hopefully, stay away.

Out of the Park Baseball 9 is a dream for every baseball fan out there. Other gamers might have a hard time getting used to the game however.

Fan service at best, nothing here warrants a full admission price.

Golden Abyss is for the fans, no doubt – a formulaic Uncharted that sticks to what it knows best. It's more down-to-earth, realistic and at times, adventurous, but is unable to match its console-counterpart's memorable sequences and polish. It's also for those who needs a constant reminder of how "OMG! Vita is awesom3z!".

On one hand the game looks great and does a good job of using the PS Vita's capabilities, but on the other hand it's based on an outdated engine and lacks some of the modes that made FIFA really interesting.

For those with fond memories of the original, this game give you a chance to briefly relive those moments. However, it misses the opportunity of really evolving the series. It is in itself a backcourt violation, looking back instead of forward.

R.U.S.E tries hard to make itself stand out from the crowd, but ultimately needs a stool to try and peek over the other strategy giants.

Final Fight: Double Impact is true to the original and full of nostalgic value.

The game looks good with neat graphics and a solid gameplay. However, a poorly designed AI and a bad camera view are problems which hamper the experience.

This is easily the worst PES we have ever played. Hopefully next year Konami will work on improving the game. Until then though, we have FIFA 09.

For real Green Day fans, this is a justified purchase. But for those of us on the periphery, the lack of content and full-price tag may be enough to deter us from joining the party.

Definitely one of the better Spider-Man games in some time.

A novel, unique blend of match 3 style gameplay and music/rhythm mechanics, which is slightly marred by the sub-par presentation and absolute lack of replayability. Worth a few hours of your time, but no long-term fun here, really.

A decent effort that will need a few tweaks here and there to perfect it.

A short campaign mode with some variations in game play though, added to a much uninspired online mode.

Shank's main problem is that all the game's positives (and there are quite a few) are either undone or over-shadowed by the lasting impression that it's too short and just too tedious.

Not the game we were hoping for, maybe a full release in the future will help this series gain back what it lost here.

Get it to try something new if you haven't tried games of this nature, if you are a fan DEFINITELY get it to calm those nerves twitching from BTTF withdrawal.

For everyone who ever thought that commanding a beast can only be great, this game demonstrates otherwise. It has good points but they are few and far between.

Definitely one of the better Spider-Man games in some time.

The game, for new comers at least, will turn into a button mashing fight when playing a much more experienced friend, who by the way is going to be kicking your ass like there is no tomorrow.

A Lego game that would have been a great addition to the franchise, but falls short in many areas.

The ideas behind the game are great, but the execution is a bit disappointing.

Potentially a great game, but most of that potential not realised.

From a ridiculous story mode, to highly customizable arenas, characters, and game play, WWE '12 is able to stand tall with its various flaws and still provide a feel good game that – if given the chance – provides lots of TLC (Tables, Ladders, and Chairs) to you and your friends when you are so bored that seeing muscle-ly men try to 'take each other's backs' becomes a better option than having to go outside and find something to do.

Though enjoyable for the first 30 minutes, you will soon tire of the same scenery and limited flexibility of the single player modes.

One thing you have to adjust to this year however is the increased difficulty of the passing game.

I applaud the developers for trying to make this work, but I honestly don't see many players spending too much of their time trying it out.

The game, for new comers at least, will turn into a button mashing fight when playing a much more experienced friend, who by the way is going to be kicking your ass like there is no tomorrow.

A good, pick-up-and-play singing game with a decent tracklist and great presentation and ease of use. Has its share of shortcomings in the single player mode, but can be a hit amongst a group of people.

Pilotwings resort does a good job of providing a fun go to experience that makes good use of the 3DS hardware features.

Bionic Commando could have been a great game, if only a little more effort was put into the storyline to actually convince players to keep on going through the levels.

A thoroughly disappointing sequel.

The combinations of colours in each stage are very attractive and will keep you coming back for more. The design of each level is also crucial to the games success.

The cover is a bit misleading; instead Lara should be holding a radio and a grappling hook.

MySims is only something you’d recommend to a fourth-grader, as it holds little promise for fans of the series.

Nothing fancy here. A game targeting the young gamers that manages to grab their attention for while.

Sure, the visuals are hauntingly striking from beginning to end but art style can only carry a game so far. Without enough interesting mechanics and a meaningful narrative, playing Madness Returns became tiresome very quickly.

It’s not pretty and it’s devoid of personality.

A game released in the wrong time. With so many new and innovative games around, a game relying on blood and slow motion action will struggle.

UFC Personal Trainer is a solid fitness game, but its shaky tracking and repetitive trainers soon bog it down.

A solid effort that just does not live up to the great first Virtua Tennis.

A game released in the wrong time. With so many new and innovative games around, a game relying on blood and slow motion action will struggle.

Q.U.B.E is a decent indie attempt, but its similarities to Valve's masterpiece cannot be ignored, and it's this constant comparison that will be its downfall. While the effort has to be applauded, at its most basic level Q.U.B.E exhibits very little to engage players, and as such won't keep your attention for very long.

It’s not pretty and it’s devoid of personality.

Very colorful and detailed levels plus very interesting cut scenes between levels.

There wont be many people that will enjoy Avadon HD. Unless you are hard core fan of old school RPG, give this a miss.

You have great combat animations but poor background graphics, swift moves in combat but not when running or jumping.

It's the co-op missions that really give the game some replay value, and I suspect is the only part that is truly memorable.

Nier could have been something if more thought was put into the actual gameplay and leveling system, rather than making it a linear path through mediocrity.

On the outside it’s a very good game - graphics, sound effects, music are all fantastic. Everything else however, is bad and lets the game and the whole series down.

The game is flawed and introduces nothing new to the genre but the outcome is pleasant and worthy of your playtime.

Just about average overall but could have been so much better. The franchise overall is certainly worth another shot in the future however.

It may not be enough to challenge the likes of Dirt, but the framework is definitely there for Milestone to produce a great rally title.

A fast and fun shooter with not so engaging story and great classic boss battles.

Nier could have been something if more thought was put into the actual gameplay and leveling system, rather than making it a linear path through mediocrity.

A decent experience not too different from the original, but neither as good, nor as fun as the original Manhunt was.

There are certainly better FPS games out there, but worth a try just to satiate your curiosity.

The raw entertainment is there, but the shortcomings make it a disappointing game.

Another animated movie game that just passes as a decent game for the young gamers.

If you are a Star Wars fan craving for something on the 3DS or a Lego fanatic then Star Wars III: The Clone Wars on the 3DS is a title that you should definitely check out.

Sega Superstar Tennis could have been a good game, however its erratic framerate, fussy controls, and diluted gameplay won't have you playing for long.

Some nice new additions on the defensive end and down low in the paint, but still feels awkward overall.

Mole Control is a cute remake of minesweeper, but there’s sadly not a lot you can do after playing for a couple of levels.

It may not be enough to challenge the likes of Dirt, but the framework is definitely there for Milestone to produce a great rally title.

A racing game that does not quite live up to the level of expectation in the genre at the moment.

The game across all systems is a solid effort, a little problems in each department manages to pull the game down however.

Trivial Pursuit is just another example of why some games should stay as board games.

A decent effort that is not as bad as some might expect. A longer main quest and sharper graphics would have did this game wonders.

Yes, for newcomers, Armored Core V is a difficult game, frustratingly difficult. Yet it can be rewarding to those willing to put their precious hours not into learning a new language, or a skill, but to master a mech-combat videogame.

An average attempt that doesn’t really fan the flames of this tiresome feud.

The game is flawed and introduces nothing new to the genre but the outcome is pleasant and worthy of your playtime.

The game, with a short campaign and poor gameplay, really doesn't deserve to be bought.

A disappointment. The game seems like a test project on the 3DS for Capcom with the end goal of checking how the engine works on the 3DS hardware.

A strange game that won't hold your attention for too long, but makes a rather delightful distraction.

The game across all systems is a solid effort, a little problems in each department manages to pull the game down however.

An average attempt that doesn’t really fan the flames of this tiresome feud.

A games with a lot to offer for the younger gamers. A little more creativity certainly won't hurt the series overall.

Put simply, Time Machine Rogue Pilot does too little to differentiate itself which is a fatal shortcoming for an entry into such a saturated puzzle genre. Had it the actual capacity to take us back 20 years, it may have garnered more appeal.

The Wheelman can’t beat the likes of other driving and carnage games out there, but it’s worth a try if you’re a fan of Vin Diesel or enjoy jumping into speeding cars.

A very disappointing entry in the NFS series, which clearly shows that not much thought was put into making it. Tries to bring back the fun and rush seen in Most Wanted, but fails in almost every aspect.

A racing game that does not quite live up to the level of expectation in the genre at the moment.

The game could have been a real gem, but its unholy learning curve and stupefying voice acting kills that dream early on.

There is definitely moments worth experiencing, perhaps a sequel will resolve the issues present in the game.

While Bionic Commando Rearmed 2 is still a solid side-scrolling platformer and still when of the best such co-op games around, it seems confused as to what made the first game so popular to begin with. It seems happy to free of the shackles of being a remake, completely unaware that it may have lost its identity in the process.

Could have been an improvement from the first, but fails to win anyone over.

KOF XII is a bad attempt to bring a fan favourite onto next-gen consoles.

A game that will certainly appeal to fans of the franchise, but falls short of its full potential.
