    A TV show like AMC's The Walking Dead wants a game to match. Survival Instinct is not that, at all. Ugly, unoriginal and boring, this FPS has many mistakes and bugs, besides being short and without intensity. Don't buy it, even though you love Daryl.

    As fun as always, Sly Cooper returns in his biggest adventure, which, although not surprising, is completely immersive and varied. The Far West or the Middle Ages prepare a lot of levels for the thief and his friends and ancestors.

    Dead or Alive 5 Plus is spectacular, balanced and has fluid gameplay like the original game. Some additions are good idea, but others such as touch screen controls are poor. Netcode and crossplaying works well, but nowadays PS3 servers are pretty deserted.

    LEGO City Undercover offers hours of gameplay in a sandbox-style game based on the LEGO franchise. Chase McCain lives in a rich world with lots of content, vehicles and missions. Using the Wii U GamePad you will explore this colorfur city made by pieces.

    Good adaptation and much new content. Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate uses both screens and capabilities of 3DS and Wii U, but it's the same hilarious and addictive game from Wii with many extras. The HD doesn't look good and retains some mistakes.

    Gears of War: Judgment has the strong points of franchise: frantic, funny and well designed campaign (coop included). Adds a great Survivor mode, but fails with too-limited multiplayer modes and little new in general.

    Great expansion with interesting touches, a solid and entertaining campaign and very good additions to the interface and multiplayer aspects around its e-sport element. It's a bit expensive for new players, though, as it requires Wings of Liberty.

    Sniper: Ghost Warrior 2 fails in too many elements. It's linear, simplistic and has a guided campaign. There's little variety and it's too short. City Interactive doesn't take advantage of Cry Engine 3, and it's full of graphical issues.

    CPUs Goddesses Girls are back in virtual town of Gamindustri, this time in a back to the 80s past and the whole arcade and pixel tradition of that decade. Larger, richer and harder than Hyperdimension Neptunia mk2, Victory has a good battle system and a parodic, constant rhythm of guilty fun & jokes about games, but too much dialogues that don't say really anything, poor graphic visuals and a difficulty that makes us to grind constantly to be able to beat a ridiculously difficult Final Bosses. Buy this ticket back to the land of videogames if you really love the Japan RPG in its most pure expression.

    Virtue's Last Reward delivers a great amount of fun. With improved gameplay mechanics and +30h of lifespan, you won't find anything better than Chunsoft's last effort.

    Darkstalkers Resurrection is a good compilation and Darkstalkers 3 is a must have. Two great fighting games and solid online system with improved visuals like Street Fighter 3: Online Edition.

    Trying a little departure from the Atelier's Arland trilogy, Ayesha brings new elements, like a combat system with more options and a revamped item-crafting system. Maybe its visuals are poor in texture quality, but Atelier Ayesha sure feels like a regular entry in the series.

    Bloodier than ever, the god of Sony's IPs come back with a title than focuses on the beginning of the tragedy. Reluctant to remember what happened, Kratos only wants to break the pact he made once with Ares. God of War: Ascension bring us a visual spectacle that pushes PlayStation 3 to its limits, carrying new elements for the gameplay and even a Multiplayer mode that helps to extend the life of this spartan odyssey. A great Good-bye to the character until the Next Generation.

    Naruto is a beloved ninja, in Ultimate Ninja Storm 3 he has a great story to tell. Fans have found the best game in the Shippuden series, but really this chapter has some unforgivable mistakes. New ideas and classic setbacks, all together in a beautiful cel shading.

    For those who really missed the Metroidvania concept of Koji Igarashi in Lords of Shadow, MercurySteam has created in Mirror of Fate an petit homage with the style and gameplay of the reboot's series, adding those elements of pure exploration, platforms and astonishing 3D's visual stereoscopic levels that truly take us into the castle, dungeons and caves of the new & tragic Dracula, always cursed by the revenge of the Belmont Clan.

    Omertà: City of Gangsters is far from becoming the crime simulator we all expected. It's a game depleted by notable absences in many aspects and a great idea overshadowed by a really poor execution. The product can entertain, but is unable to attract fans of mafia theme enough because a continuous lack of options throughout the whole game. Fortunately, it is fully distributed and localized with a lower price in Spain, and this is one of the few reasons to buy it.

    Ninja Gaiden Sigma 2 Plus is a great port that Mixes depth original combat system from Ninja Gaiden 2 and variety of content from Sigma 2. Good and challenging new modes, but with some engine issues for another version of one of the best hack and slash in this last decade.

    Tomb Raider is a wonderful adventure which reaches the heights of Uncharted. Lara Croft returns in an exciting and relatively open game, with all genres very well-realized. Temples, tombs and archeology with intense action, puzzles and jumps. Just what we wanted.

    Dynasty Warriors 7: Empires is one of the best games in the franchise, thanks mainly to its solvent mixture of action and strategy. As a result, it is harder to become monotonous.

    Crysis 3 is the best of its species. Technology and impressive graphics. But it isn't a surprise if you've played the previous game, and this is quite short. The bow is fantastic and the new New York setting too, but we wanted a more open and unexpected adventure.

    Capcom knows best what it keeps in its files, truly legendary IPs that when they're put together create a blast from the past. Just like this Capcom Arcade Cabinet, a well-selected bunch of titles in which the shoot 'em up seems to be the king of the hill. Every title comes with different game modes, even online and co-op in some cases, and nice features like the opportunity of playing a vertical shoot 'em up in horizontal. But the best is being able of pay just for the titles we want, not having to buy the entire collection.

    Revengeance is a great hack and slash: Frantic, fun and fast running at 60 fps. It's a good mix of Metal Gear's universe and Platinum Style, but Raiden fails with stealth situations.

    Dangerously close to the Duke Nukem Forever case, Aliens: Colonial Marines at last sees the light, bringing a correct FPS with good and bad aspects. With the first aspect we have a truly reliable recreation of Cameron's Aliens universe that constantly pays homage to its source with every detail of its scenarios, characters, soundtrack and weapons. On the other hand, the whole level of tension the game manages to create is lost in the battles due to a poor Enemy AI, graphical issues and unbalanced gameplay. A good experience for fans, but another common FPS to everyone who doesn't know the movie.

    Challenging and difficult, Ken's Rage 2 will put us on the ropes on many occasions, forcing us to give the best of ourselves. The epic battles against bosses are definitely the best thing in a game where the engine is lacking and some concepts are oversimplified.

    Dead Space 3 has lost some of the typical horror but it's a spectacular blockbuster. The co-op mode is a gift, nicely finished and inviting.

    Skulls of the Shogun is a nice game for starters in the genre, with a great visual style and a very funny screenplay. It's not the best turn-based strategy game around, but it's definitely a good one.

    Hitman: HD Trilogy is a good part of Stealth history in videogames. Blood Money is still great six years later, and Silent Assassin and Contracts have interesting gameplay elements. But, Where is Hitman: Agent 47?

    It is by far the best game we've seen on PSVita. As as enhanced edition of Persona 4, 'Golden' works perfectly as both an introduction to new gamers and a demanding adventure for advanced ones. Offering a handful of new additions to the franchise's core, it's a must-have for any Vita owner that's willing to expend more than 100h with a fantastic JRPG.

    One year after its appearance on consoles, Ace Combat Assault Horizon comes back on PC with the same intensity, pace and action, but its weaknesses are still there.
