    Final Fight: Double Impact offers in a single pack two arcade classics, Final Fight and Magic Sword, originally launched in 1989 and 1990 respectively. The work carried out with the conversions of both titles cannot be compared with Super Street Fighter II Turbo HD Remix, although they offer online mode and excellent graphical filters.

    Conviction is a good game, faithful to the series, with great visuals and a perfect mix of action and stealth. But the solo experience is extremely short, there are several AI flaws, and all of the multiplayer game modes are just for up to two players. Good ideas, but it's not as polished as previous entries.

    The latest adaptation of Blood Bowl on handheld is just enough to become a good game, but nothing more far from that. It doesn't matter if you're playing on a Nintendo DS or a PSP, just note that the controls and the graphic style is very much the same thing on both games. Still it's a valuable game if you're looking for something different on the strategy genre.

    Although it may not captivate the new breed of graphic enthusiasts, Mega Man 10 is a real blast from the past. A little treasure of old-school gaming that will delight the nostalgic players of the greatest arcades of all time,.

    It's been five years, but Sakura Wars aged rather well. A great mix of visual novel and SRPG, charming characters, several endings and a great gameplay; one of the best games on the genre both for PS2 and Wii.

    Prison Break has a lot of mistakes in its gameplay and in the technical makeup. There are only mitigated by the argument and the presence of direct characters from the TV series.

    Dead or Alive has never been so far away from anything that has to do with a Paradise. This game's basically a port from the Xtreme spin-off that gamers received on Xbox 360 a few years ago, with the inclusion of some stupid flirting-sim, tons of objects and not-very-interesting minigames that will only find success with the die-hard fans of the series. Forget about it if you want to have some real fun with your PSP.

    A nice selection of maps for the MW2 fans, but clearly overpriced to be really appealing to general audiences. Only the hardcore MW2 users will play them enough to take advantage of this polemic Stimulus Map Pack.

    Wario Ware Do It Yourself is what people have been expecting for a long time. The level editor is so simple that it amazes how different the microgames you can generate with it can be along with the melodies from the great music editor. You even have the option to upload them to the Internet or share it with your friends Nintendo consoles, Wii and DS. Your limit is your imagination.

    It's not deep, the island is mostly empty, it lacks a decent cover system, and controls can be chaotic some times. But Just Cause 2 overcomes all of its flaws to deliver a fun and engaging experience, with so much freedom and many things to do on the island.

    You have to learn how to reinvent yourself to take interesting atmosphere and parlay it to an outstanding action game, lacked by its own gameplay system and the use of a Wii motion plus controller that's not able to give the right feelings when playing. Red Steel 2 hit the action spot but nothing more than that. Fair enough considering the quality of its predecessor.

    It's been ten years, but Joanna aged rather well. Fun, entertaining, with a bunch of game modes (solo and multiplayer), Perfect Dark is almost as great as it was when it was first released. This port is good, but it can't really be referred to as a remake.

    They were right when they first called Infinite Space an "space opera", because that's exactly what we're going to find on this JRPG - an interesting mix between the traditional RPG and the Strategic genre, with a 'spacial' atmosphere that fans will love. And interesting pick if you love the genre or if you're looking for same 60 / 70 hours of fun gameplay.

    A post-apocalyptic fight for survival in the shape of FPS, with an incredibly immersive atmosphere that shines in its audiovisual presentation. The nearly 12 hours of tense journey is totally worthy of play. However, despite its visual highlights, the game fails in trying to escape its linear structure and scripted events. Ultimately it does not offer enough incentives to be replayed.

    Kratos unleashed all his potential in the trilogy conclusion in this bloody odyssey. Refining its mechanics the finest, with a vibrant pace, impressive and colossal bosses, visually outstanding graphics and blood and gore, Sony Santa Monica achieved the excellence inside the hack'n slash genre.

    Interesting but lacked in too many ways. Fragile's a good mix between Action and RPG, with an outstanding story that dig deep into the feeling of the main character, represented a young teenager. The gameplay style's a total mess, but still, there's something that will make players love this game - the Personal Frame that becomes the new best friend of Seto. An interesting choice, but not for everyone.

    For those who want more content and new missions, Awakening will offer much more than desired. Everything has been treated as if it were a new title with an epic story where our choices do matter, with spectacular combats and terrifying enemies, deep and complex characters with brilliant dialogues. It's a rebirth for the franchise, which invites us to get involved into the exciting world of Dragon Age again. And this is just the beginning.

    Fun and engaging, Resonance of Fate is a unique experience. So many things to be done, with a lot of side quests, a deep combat system and charming characters. Possibly, the most original JRPG in years, but it's too complex and frustrating. Only for hardcore JRPG gamers.

    Poor, lacking any kind of interest if you already have some other arcade on your Wii; Konami's set to convince us that they're just unable to create a nice driving game for this console. They had a nice game to begin with - it's just that graphics and playability aren't enough to justify the money that this game costs.

    HeartGold and Soul Silver are all the series needed to get to its highest level in DS: a classic up to date, respecting the base and amplifying it with elements as interesting as the PókeWalker. These cartridges are a must buy for all the fans of the series and the lovers of RPG.

    Nearly two years after its launch, Relic finally fills the gap that was intentionally left for Chaos Marines in Dawn of War 2. Though if you didn't like the original there's nothing better to find here, Chaos Rising fits perfectly in the Warhammer 40K atmosphere, bringing a unique experience that truly delivers.

    The Eye of Judgment: Legends solves all the errors of the first game, appeared in PS3 three years back. This game offers a good supply in modes for one player, maintaining the online supply of the original EoJ. Unfortunately, EoJ Legends isn't compatible with the PS Eye camera.

    It's difficult to get back the magic of the early days, but Square Enix tried its best in order to develop a storyline that's worth living. With an outstanding graphics engine, an impressive story and a quite interesting gameplay style, the only element that Final Fantasy XIII's lacking is a better mechanics and not the just go-on-forward gameplay style that it offers. Still, it's a worth-buying JRPG if you're a fan of the genre. And if you're not, just give it a try.

    Two years later, Assassin's Creed tries again to make real those promises from Ubisoft, and prove itself as a better game than it was. The truth is that, despite the Renaissance setting, the vivid locations and the historical landmarks, the new features added don't really improve the sequel: the same repetitive mechanics remain, as the flawed enemy AI, a rough combat system and moments of frustration coming from issues with the camera and the control response in the platform sections. Assassin's Creed II it's still a good game but far from the masterpiece Ubisoft has been promising.

    Finally comes one of the greatest adventures from Sega exclusively for PlayStation 3. It has been a long way, but the new Yakuza's episode arrives to the Western after Japan launch one year ago. New street fights, more research, a great plot and love for detail are the trademarks of the new proposal from Amusement Vision. It's really worthy; a nice price with a nice extra content.

    Fair but glitched, Calling's one of the most interesting proposals from Hudson in the last few months, a nice horror adventure in which gamers will discover the same gameplay that we saw in Project Zero or Ju-On, based once again in the stereotypical Japanese horror movies. It's your best pick if you're looking for some fun -- for while it lasts.

    Press Play's first adventure has come to be one of the best WiiWare games that we've tried so far, with an impressive graphic engine and a very entertaining traditional gameplay style that will make any platforms-lover enjoy his time with the game. Don't miss it.

    A great choice for the ones who love online FPS and one of the best releases of the beginning of 2010. DICE has done it again.
