The game overall is a good stepping stone to the full title coming out in less than a month and an idea that we hope other future sport releases will adapt. How good this game can turn up to be also depends on how good the career mode is in 2K10.

A great little gem with good replay value at a ridiculously cheap price.

The global conquest mode is a much needed fresh breath of air in the series, but sadly it fails to deliver.

Frontlines: Fuel of War offers a robust multi-player but, we wish the single-player had more substance.

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.

Much more playable than the original game, with some welcome additions to keep your guns blazing.

THE F1 Game. A Must Buy for racing sims and F1 fans.

Any true JRPG fan will find that Resonance of Fate, despite all its shortcomings, is an exciting and challenging adventure...and at its core - a great battle system that is as complicated as it is brilliant.

Cogs is a great game to play if you fancy giving your brain a good flex while still keeping your wits during some of the later levels.

The Blue Bomber’s new adventures in 8 bit are still plenty of fun but, this game leaves you wondering, for how much longer?

A great game that improved slightly in some areas. Sadly, the changes are not enough for you to drop more cash on it.

A very unique, enjoyable experience when compared to the crowd of other puzzle games available on this platform. Definitely worth your time and money.

A great game for anyone looking for a super-fast brawl.

This year more than ever you will need to have a certain amount of knowledge when it comes to positioning and rules in football.

It is a fast and fun shooter with a weak story; but who needs a story when you can have tons of fun putting your glaive at work dismembering your enemies.

It is a solid effort that fits well as a console game. We just wish some more details made it across from the PC series.

With plenty of fist fights and some great action sequences, this is a must have for the Ps3.

A great expansion upon the original that expands on its strengths and fixes a lot of the weaknesses.

LEGO-Harry Potter Years 1-4 is an amazing game that takes you down the memory lane and an effective timepass agent between major releases.

A game that doesn't aim to bring anything new to the table, and for the most part provides a decent experience.

It introduces a plethora of new units, tactics and gameplay elements, and does represent a significant evolution in the Total War series.

Not without its issues, Test Drive Unlimited 2 is definitely a step forward for the series, and in absolutely the right direction.

Unstoppable Gorgs is a surprisingly satisfying game to play, thanks to its quirky presentation and smart use of satellite placement.

The platformer that no one has heard about yet but everyone needs to try out. It's a bold project from a fledgling studio, and for the most part it offers a satisfying platformer experience for anyone looking to relive the classic platformer gaming experience.

Pineapple Smash Crew is all about mindless fun, and on that note is does deliver this. But apart from the mindless explosions and constant running around, there isn't much to check out in this game, which is a bit heartening as more game modes would have kept the action going.

The Amiga's future sports superstar makes its most successful comeback yet, with a game that feels just as fresh as it did 20 years ago.

Good sense of humor combined with valuable package and fun family time.

Fans of the game will feel that Eidos has done a good job with the property and it may open the door to more games in the future. For a new-comer, the game doesn't do anything revolutionary.

If you want to break way from the regular FPS drones and try something old-fashioned yet refreshing, then give Bodycount a go – you'll be surprised how much fun mindless shooting can be.

A game that doesn't aim to bring anything new to the table, and for the most part provides a decent experience.

It may not be original but this Sega racer is still loads of fun to play.

We can call this the best Sonic game in years considering the pretty low quality platform Sonic games we have played recently. This game still has some issues to deal with however.

With easy to learn concepts and simple, straightforward gameplay, Echochrome will have you defying the laws of gravity in no time.

The Club is a game with no real weakness or strengths really. You will enjoy this game for hours yet it doesn’t reach true epic standards.

Saints Row 2, we repeat, is no GTA IV. It is a whole lot more of a relaxed and loose experience.

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.

If you have the patience to stick to it, this game can be loads of fun. The action bits of the game are brilliant and the boss battles are epic.

The game has a ton of things to do including racing and collecting honey. While that might get boring quickly, it’s still a very solid effort.

If you're a fan of strategy games and are happy to forgo fancy graphics for good old fashioned gameplay, then you'll love Genesia. However, if you're a casual gamers and we know a lot of you iPad owners are, take note of the caveat – this one's not for noobs.

Graphically the game is quite impressive as the blur effects and the black and white distinction of zombies and humans respectively, gives it a very realistic edge.

At $0.99, Spy Mouse is a lot of content, and its achievements for each level should lure the completionist in, too. It's effectively simple, and its short level format makes it ideal for situations where boredom is all for kill.

Very robust online multiplayer coupled with hours of party mode fun.

Sonic Generations is a great game for fans of the series as well as anyone looking to play Sonic for the very first time. With plenty of unlockables and challenges to beat, this is the surefire Sonic game to get so far.

While there have, and there will continue to be, complaints about not being able to play online and with other people in Rayman Origins, I feel as though this game is best left as an experience between friends and just want to mess around with odd characters in an even stranger, yet beautifully made, world.

I won’t go as far as announcing this game as a must buy or even close but for anyone looking for a fresh take on a tired out genre, The Club is the perfect medicine.

Saints Row 2, we repeat, is no "GTA IV". It is a whole lot more of a relaxed and loose experience.

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.

For gamers who have never gotten into Star Wars, this game warrants a look, if not for the Star Wars franchise, then at least for the great gameplay!

A game worth playing through twice to see both sides of Karma. A game for fans and a good buy for the console.

It's difficult to give this title a higher score and it doesn't deserve a low score either, there are things it does great, and others it doesn't. As a Street Fighter fan you may not care, but a fan or any person who considers themselves good will question the motives behind the title.

While the gameplay does tend to get a tad bit repetitive sometimes, there's some amount of relief in the form of special levels where you're doing something completely different like chasing a new glow chum in order to make him your ally.

It's a good game if given the time to be familiar, Help section could be expanded for more assistance, and there's tons of story to keep you going.

This game is certainly not better than games like Grid and Burnout Paradise. At the end of the day however the realism here makes Race Pro a completely different type of game, give it a shot!

The price may scare off most people, but it happens to be one of the better titles on the platform.

A game that delivers. Pushes the PSP system to the max.

Much more fun on the second time around, will the third time be a charm?

It may not be original but this Sega racer is still loads of fun to play.

While Echochrome 2 is essentially a 'one-trick pony', it performs this trick rather well and in doing so becomes one of the few good games available for the PlayStation Move. It may be less compelling than the original but it is no less fun.

Rage is a fun first person shooter, and a marvel to look at. Unfortunately it is let down by a weak story and presentation.

Despite all the new additions, Forza 4 still feels like Forza 3, but with Top Gear tacked on.

Best suited for someone who's never played Street Fighter.

It's a clean, fuss-free game that provides a curious amount of fun on your PC.

What Soulcalibur lacks in Single player content, it makes up for it by having solid gameplay mechanics, fantastic visuals, and fairly good roaster of characters.

A truly remarkable game with plenty to keep you engrossed. Non-linear gameplay means you can spend plenty of hours interacting with your environment.

Not enough horror, but the refreshing differentness complemented by the solid gameplay make this a great game.

The best Sonic game to come out in the past 16 years.

While the game doesn't bring anything especially exciting or new to the franchise, it's still a really great Guitar Hero game to play.

The game is definitely growing on me, as much as I want my hands on the next series, I do not want the adventure to end. This will be one of the few great story-telling game there is. Using an old point and click formula of all things too!

While the game doesn't bring anything especially exciting or new to the franchise, it's still a really great Guitar Hero game to play.

The series is improving, which is certainly a positive. It still has some ground to cover to beat the Football Manager series however.

It can be better, definitely deserves another release but you can't go wrong with the price tag.

While the game is still quite short, the survival mode and the penchant for climbing leaderboards will have you playing for a bit longer. If you're looking for a quick platformer that offers plenty of carnage, then this is the game for you.

A technical showpiece, more than anything else, on how little bit of creativity can make simple, entertaining and innovative games. Only if it had been longer!

If you've played Virtua Tennis 4 on the PS3 there's no need to revisit it here. That being said, tennis games are perfect for playing on the go, and Virtua Tennis 4: World Tour Edition is a perfect match for the Vita.

Even though it’s just a remake, it’s one of the best ones available so far.

Simpsons fans will enjoy it because of how well it portrays their all time favorite show and how it turns Springfield into a virtually alive city with style. Gamers on the other hand will be enjoying the level design and the well done graphics engine. Both crowds however are going to be disappointed with the depth of the game overall, and might not even complete the game due to its repetitive nature.

LEGO-Harry Potter Years 1-4 is an amazing game that takes you down the memory lane and an effective timepass agent between major releases.

If you don’t care about the plot and just want to run around hacking at things, this is the game for you.

Transformers War for Cybertron isn't a bad game, nor is it something exceptional. It's another third person shooter that fans might enjoy, given the satisfactory storyline and some excellent voice talent. If you're a Transformers fanboy and would love to fight alongside your fellow Autobots, then this is the game for you.

If EA sports manage to fix a couple of issues in this game, NBA live 09 will surely be the game to beat next year. Until then though, play some more 2k8.

Do not let the childish coat this game is covered in (I mean it is LEGO after all!) scare you away because this game is worth the time and effort you will put in while solving puzzles, exploring levels and collecting everything the game has to offer.

Its simplicity and lack of major depths make it a pretty straightforward pick up and play affair.

Finally a game for NASCAR fans to enjoy while still being accessible to new players.

If you’d like a quiet and quick distraction, this is it.

WiiWare needs titles like this to be successful. A game that is pretty simple yet fun and overall is great value for the money you pay.

After Castlevania's lackluster outings on the PS2, question marks stood over whether this would be the console Castlevania's return to form. Lords of Shadow seems to avoid the challenge altogether. While it is, in itself, a solid action adventure, it borrows too much from other games and too little from the series it is meant to ignite.

The game is definitely fun, but the repetitiveness and poor quality steal some thunder.
