Yakuza 4 is based on an excellent core from previous installments of the franchise. In fact, there are no significant changes to the gameplay, and the focus of SEGA was in the story elements. The idea of introducing four different characters gives the plot a variety of situation and allow us to know what's happening from several point of views. As it was divided into several acts, the game manages to avoid boring us after a few hours, and taking into account its length, that's a good thing. Sadly, the great scenario situated in the red district of Tokyo becomes rubbish when we progress and discover, again, that there is no realism at all and we are playing and absurd tale. At least, there are no zombies... yet.- Meristation

Shogun 2 is like a melting pot for all the ideas, gameplay and concepts we've seen in the previous games of the Total War series. Its pillars are quite similar to Empire's, but this game has improvements in many areas, and the setting is so charming, that it feels like something unique.- Meristation

MotorStorm: Apocalypse raises the frenzy of past shows to unprecedented heights. Phenomenal graphics, frantic action and high doses of adrenaline together form the best installment of the series.- Meristation

Stays true to its previous releases without compromising on innovation. The developers have chosen to resemble the campaign mode more like multiplayer games and this leads to awesome confrontations. To this we must add the new faction, Imperial Guard, and the possibility to play the campaign with any of the 6 standing armies. Bound for fans of the franchise and lovers of fast-paced RTS.- Meristation

With its fast paced combat, memorable characters and the kind of production values Bioware apply to their projects, Dragon Age 2 is nothing short of a great title. But it's yet to be seen if the sacrifices made to streamline the game and make it more welcome to new players are the best solution avaliable.- Meristation

Just as the PC version, Torchlight is a fun experience, with a lot of exploring, looting, combating and side-questing. It lacks a multiplayer coop mode, it has some framerate issues and it's rather short by genre's standards, but it's an interesting game overall. Recommended for hardcore action-RPG fans.- Meristation

Interesing but offering nothing new at all, the handheld version of Split / Second: Velocity is basically a port of the PS3-X360-PC versions of the license. Visually amazing, its delivers the fast-paced racing that conquered the audience a few months ago.- Meristation

Cities in Motion is a game about public transport attractive enough for fans of this genre but with too many limitations for those looking for a more global possibility. The game features an appropiate graphical level but certain problems in the simulation of traffic must be addressed to make it a real choice.- Meristation

Nintendo proves once again why Pokemon is not a franchise just for kids. While not the most innovative sequel, Game Freak keeps adding new layers of depth to their formula, once again delivering something truly special to the fans.- Meristation

Better, longer, more diverse and much more intense. The sequel of PixelJunk Shooter honors its name with a new focus on action without losing the essence of what made the first one so great.- Meristation

Beyond Good & Evil deserved this second chance, as it's one of the best games we've seen in the last few years. There are not many improvements here, but overall is a great experience in a genre that is not as popular as it used to be. Charming characters, great storytelling and gameplay make for an unforgettable game.- Meristation

Painkiller: Redemption is only recommended for fans of the franchise. Remaining players need more graphics and better gameplay; there're much better FPS in the market.- Meristation

Charmin sequel that offers nothing really new -except for the 2D levels-, in which players will take the rol of Blob, jumping and painting a number of scenarios. Quite fun, but nonetheless very much the same that we saw back in 2008. It's a very interesing buy-option for those who didn't try it back then, specially on 360 and PS3.- Meristation

Fight Night Champion is the best boxing game that we've seen. Controls are simple but effective, and it has all kinds of game modes offline and online. The new Champion mode is the future of the franchise.- Meristation

Kill with Skill is a perfect slogan for an action game with so many ways of executing enemies. Filled with a great sense of humour, the main campaign is the star in this game. It was designed in a way that we always find new things to do, completing the incredibly large list of skills with a good variety of weapons and situations. You really have to think before you act, planning how you're going to attack in order to get greatest amount points that is possible, taking into account not only the enemies, but the environment. But when you finish the game... you have two options: you're really competitive and want to be the first one in the charts, or you just abandon the game because of its lack of cooperative mode or an interesting multiplayer. Regardless, but you should not miss such a unique campaign.- Meristation

A stunning adventure, one of Matsuno's masterworks, a good example of how to develop a Strategy RPG with an intriguin' storyline. Plenty of new additions to the gameplay mechanics, it's yet another game that should be on any gamer's shelve.- Meristation

Kirby strikes again with his best adventure so far, probably also one of the best stories that we've discovered on Wii's catalog. This is a trully epic adventure in which Kirby discovers a new way of developing his abilites, meeting new friends and so on. It's fun and entertaining, and without any doubt the best game for this console on the beginning of 2011. Yet another must-have for Nintendo's Wii.- Meristation

The second chapter in TellTale's Back to the Future series improves the previous one in several aspects. However, it's still extremely short and a rather easy game, so it's far from what we expected.- Meristation

Dr. Kawashima's next installment uses Kinect delivering a fresh experience with our body movements. Unfortunatelly, only twenty minigames makes it feel without depth, and in some exercises, body tracking is not accurate.- Meristation

Hard Corps Uprising does not understand "hard" as a mere difficulty setting. Actually, it's even harder than you might expect. With patience and enough skill, this game can be the dream game for any hardcore player who wants to prove himself at any cost.- Meristation

Marvel vs Capcom 3 is the return of one of the most important franchises in the fighting game genre. Frenetic and fun game, MvC3 has a simple but addictive gameplay and a good roster. This game only needs some more offline modes and some classic characters from the Capcom and Marvel series.- Meristation

Eden Games tried to improve the online features of Test Drive Unlimited, but without any luck. The game's pretty much the same as what we saw on the first chapter, with better graphics and the isle of Ibiza as the main charm of the game. Call it 'virtual turism', but don't expect anything better than the first TDU - It's the same, but with tons of meaninless social options.- Meristation

Gray Matter is an serious and amazing adventure in a simple but well-organized development and a surprising plot. It would be one of that titles that everyone remember with special affection if published 20 years ago, but unfortunately it comes at a very weak moment for its genre. Required for all lovers of adventure games.- Meristation

Souls of Zill O'll is overall a good action RPG, combining an interesting storyline with a fun gameplay system. However, it lacks some polish and variety, while the idea of controlling three characters is not fully exploited. At least, the IA does not compromise you and you can trust in their actions, but we would have preferred having a co-op option. Anyway, if you are a fan of the genre and wanna kill hundreds of enemies, you might consider it for buying.- Meristation

Bloodline Champions is a good alternative that attacks some of the shortcomings and common complaints among users of DotA-based games. However it seems that we have not a perfectly polished product at the technical level and this can lead to users discontent because everything will depend on the number of users wich receive the offer from Funcom.- Meristation

More of the same stuff, but this time slightly improved. This particular way of understanding the strategy under Mario's eyes is quite entertaining, but's lacking some new features. A worth-buying game for fans of the genre.- Meristation
