    In this day and age, after games like Bioshock, Mass Effect and Heavy Rain that successfully blended high quality storytelling and solid gameplay mechanics, Alan Wake doesn’t exactly set new boundaries. By comparison, it comes off across as a derivative and dated affair.

    There are very, very few games which truly make me sit back and go “wow”. Among the slew of games that I’ve reviewed this year, there are only a couple that I really enjoyed playing, and continue to do so. Brutal Legend is one such game – even though I aced my Public Speaking and English Literature classes, words only slur together when I try to describe this game. Truth be told, I only heard about the game in the last month or so, but after spending a good amount of time with it, I was transformed from a mere gamer into a rocking, die-hard fan.

    So, there you have it…another example of how indie titles can very much hold their own against the big players in the industry in today's gaming world, if not triumph over them.

    Dance Central is the game to have for anyone who is skeptical of Kinect's abilities. A great crowd puller and a hit to have at parties.

    All the little things that make a good game great are present here. Great graphics, decent sound effects, deep (yet quick) gameplay, new content in the form of missions and equipment available all the time, leveling up and customization for your entire team.

    Split/Second is a game for anyone who's looking for a different racing experience. It may not compare to Gran Turismo, NFS, or the other games in its genre, but it's certainly worth a play.

    This game is a vast improvement over the previous one, and is probably the best tower-defence game out there. It doesn't have much replay value, apart from the multiplayer, but it is a game I definitely recommend as an action or tower-defence game.

    SSX
    SSX is a triumphant success that brings the thrilling snowboarding title to the starved gamers on the new generation consoles and does so by not breaking what already works but making it a lot more fun. Offline multiplayer is definitely missed, but everything else is surprisingly solid and makes for a much recommended title for sport gamers.

    While it turns out more silly than satirical, the beauty of the game is Panau itself. An island nation that is interesting to explore and despicably fun to demolish.

    The first major disappointment was the length of the game; although it was fun, it was too short.

    When you set aside the forgettable characters and boring dialog you find a game that is so well polished in many of its other aspects. The title boasts one of the best combat systems ever in an action-RPG and a highly flexible class system that allows the player to choose to be whatever they want to.

    A fun little romp that you can really only enjoy with friends. It's unfortunate that you can't enjoy it on your own, but you're in for a rage fit if you try some of the later dungeons on your own. With plenty of things to unlock, a variety of game modes and upcoming DLC, you're likely to get a satisfying couple of hours from Dungeon Defenders.

    While Revelations didn't resonate with me as much as Assassin's Creed 2 did, it did a great job of wrapping up the Ezio trilogy. Polished graphics and gameplay, a complex fascinating story, and diversity in missions and locations are on the forefront of why Revelations is a great experience.

    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!".

    Dustforce is a game that you will stop playing and then want to play again to get that perfect score. It's not for everyone, as some gamers will find the difficulty a bit too strict for their liking. Still, if you're looking for a game that isn't afraid of challenging your skills, then Dustforce is the one for you.

    The action mixes well with the entertaining strategy elements of trap placement. The visuals are good and the sound is a definite high point. I only wish Orcs Must Die!
