Trying to get closer and closer to the almighty FSX. With a new ATC, the best flight dynamics still, and a huge improvement on weather the guys at Laminar research must be proud of this simulator.

Warlock: Master of the Arcane is a highly addictive and entertaining game, although it would not meet the need of a nicely-updated Master of Magic. The game perfectly fulfills the expectations raised and offers good content at an affordable price. And this is quite important these days. If it keeps growing in the right way (through some DLCs) it would become an unforgettable game, but needs to improve its AI and add more options.

LEGO Harry Potter: Years 5-7 changes the intuitive gameplay of the first game for new console based controls; it's funny, but isn't better compared with Years 1-4.

Just like an oniric experience, new PSN indie's Datura take us in an astonishing journey through beautiful, twisted Lynch, Burton & Poe's forest of different playable experiencies, emotions and sounds. It's a shame that an unfortunate control scheme through PS Move and a really short gameplay ruin what it could've been one of the most surreal and striking games of PlayStation 3.

Team tactics is something really rare to see in shooters, specially in close combat, but Starhawk provides the tools to enjoy great battles where the strategy is as important as the aiming skills. LightBox Entertainment did a great job redefining the original Warhawk, from the aesthetics to the gameplay.

Xbox 360's version keeps alive all the essence of the PC original game and allows you to enjoy its unique and addictive stile with only a gamepad. Despite its quality, the Hardcore and Creative modes, so loved in the PC version, are missing and even the massive online servers have now been changed for 4 player split screen games, playable up to 8 players on Xbox Live. This new version is the perfect option for new players.

It's free. Good FPS with optional price. The usual online and look the same. Zombie Studios has done a good job, but nothing amazing.

Mortal Kombat is a good port and a great option for PS Vita if you don't have the PlayStation 3 or Xbox 360 version. The NetherRealm game is the same as last year, but full of content: extra Tower Challenges and all the DLC characters available.

Sniper Elite V2 has good sniper gameplay, but this is not enough. Poor enemies AI, horrible respawn situations and linear level designs are bad things for any shooter. And they are bad for Sniper Elite V2.

Awesomenauts is a good multiplayer battle game in a 2D world. Feels similar like DOTA, this Ronimo Game has a good mix of genres: strategy, platformer and action. Simple but effective.

Take the style, universe and chicken-esque twisted sense of humour of Fable, re-imagine and cross it with Castle Crashers & Fat Princess, add 2D stunning artwork and you have this Fable Heroes. It's a shame than the Gold Fever in-game is more important than the hack 'n slash mechanics, something that can cause a feeling of boredom in some players. But in cooperative, it's an ode to the extreme competition for gold pieces. Happy Pals joined together to combat evil criatures? Not in this game.

Tribes: Ascend is a highly recommended MMOFPS. It's a frantic game that won't allow us to rest or relax, and will require cunning and skill in equal measure. The chosen business model allows us to progress enough without spending any money, and this will last while HiReZ Studios keeps on betting on balance. If you were a previous lover of Tribes games, you should be already downloading this one, right now.

A triumph of the interactive narrative, good proof that with good writers and a solid direction, letting the player make decisions can make a good story better. An intense game with plenty of tough decisions and consequences that come back to punch you in the stomach.

Bloodforge is an impressive technical demo; unfortunately games are all about gameplay and this is not very good as an adventure game, or even as an action title. The camera problems are usual and the mechanics are far away from being something special.

Prototype 2 is a fun game overall. It lacks innovation and its visuals are not the best, but it delivers great fun thanks to an interesting story and to the skills we have.

EA Sports surprised us with the decision of not realeasing a stand alone game for the new EURO Cup, but it was a great decission. This DLC adds just what FIFA 12 needs to cover the tournament and let us live the ambience in the stadium right from the UI. The best way to keeping us attached to the game for some more hours, but maybe not as cheap as we expected.

Risen 2 should have been bigger, bolder and a more interesting than the first one. But its clunky combat makes it no favours, and, overall, the lack of a single, cohesive and huge landmass like the first one undermines the exploration component and makes the world less interesting. It´s still a fairly unique RPG with plenty of freedom, great characters and good sense of humour, so it´s a good alternative if you are a fan of Piranha or looking for something different.

Just like when we were kids, Botanicula takes a tiny, simple element and creates an astonishing world of sounds and visuals so captivating, haunting, dazzling and spectacular that makes this last masterpiece of Amanita Desing a playable jewel full of smiles, laughs and tenderizing moments. Undoubtely, one of the most precious games of the year. And one of the funniest graphic adventures too!

Trials Evolution is one of the best Arcade Games this year. Better and bigger than its predecessor, has a simple but addictive gameplay and too much content to unlock. Good choice for a multiplayer matches.

House of the Dead 4 demonstrates that the classic formula of FPS games on rails is still really fun. The format of downloable content fits perfectly this genre for the amount of content, making the price really attractive. The PS3 port works well, with nice HD graphics and greatly adapted to use Move as the input controller. If you are an arcade lover, this game is for you.

FEZ is not just a nostalgia exercise, or a 2D platformer, or an attempt of trying to bring back the glorious 8-Bit pixelated days, no. FEZ is simply an astonishing game, a playable experience no one calling himself a gamer should miss. And truly a brain-teaser at its highest level, too!

A nice take of a classic formula. Perfectly executed, true to its roots and made in a way that it feels modern and approachable. The Legend of Grimrock is a joy for lovers of Dungeon Crawlers, but it welcomes any type of player as long as he has patience.

The Witcher 2 continues to be a colossal creative and technical achievement and the superb 360 version only confirms the excellence CD Projekt's craft. Console users get a fantastic version of a fantastic game, while the PC users get a great patch that improves and enhances the experience of the original, a perfect excuse to return as The White Wolf and to live his adventure from a new perspective.

Skullgirls is a solid fighting game with a good gameplay full of influences from big names in the genre. Beautiful graphics and elegant BSO. Lack of content.

Pandora's Tower is one of the most interesing action-RPG games for the Wii, an atractive quest to rescue a beauty and defenceless woman who is cursed. Ganbarion developed a game with hardcore gamers in mind that fits perfect in your collection if you bought Xenoblade Chronicles and The Last Story.

Warriors Orochi 3 is an example of evolution and expansion. But it is still not a brilliant game, it fails the usual things. The appearance of Ryu Hayabusa and Ayane are used to refine the gameplay, now faster and more precise.

Keeping the rhythm is hilarious in 3DS. The Emperor's Treasure knows catch with minigames but it is a little boring on the predictable story, and excessive dialogue. Good music and beautiful Paris. A great idea.

800 Microsoft Points isn't much money. Suda51 has a eccentric and crazy proposal for you, as always. Now you must throw baseballs to kill monsters in an amusement park. Plain and simple, nothing more. Like it? Buy it.
