    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.

    Double Fine brings us an original and magical game starring russian dolls with a simple gameplay but as an extraordinary experience with a lot of fun.

    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.

    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.

    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.

    Lord of Arcana has the same mechanic like Monster Hunter, but it's too simple and has a frustrating experience on single play.

    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.

    Dungeons is a good strategy game mixed with tower defense and RPG elements, but it fails due to some technical issues and repetitive gameplay.

    Magicka is a good action-RPG title, with sense of humor and a great gameplay, but due to some technical issues, it can't be considered as a must have.

    Fun, but not quite what we were expecting from a Mario sportive franchise. Square Enix has managed to create an entertaining game lacking multiple game options and a variety of sports. It's a multiplayers focused experience, so if you're looking for something interesting to play with a couple of friends, here's the best choise so far on 2011.

    DC Universe Online is not only the best MMO build on a superhero theme, but one of the most innovative MMO appeared in the last few years. The combat system is a blast, and there is plenty of content to keep you busy for weeks. Is it worth it the monthly fee though? Only SOE and their regular updates to the game can answer that.

    Better late than never, Mass Effects finally comes to PS3 with an excellent port of the second part. While is unfortunate that PS3 only users won't experiment the first entry of the series, this version of the sequel offers a good chance to get into the series. Furthermore, the package is great and full of content, which adds a good value to it.

    Dead Space 2 is a great game thanks to its story, character development and over the top situations. It's quite similar to the original game, but it improves in several key areas that make it, overall, a game as good as the first one. Multiplayer is completely forgettable.

    Cheap science-fiction, lame story and a not-fun gameplay system. We're still wondering why Square Enix wanted to develop an action-paced game without any kind of meaning at all, just a copy & paste of games like Gears of War and Uncharted. Nothing interesting here, better wait for something that's worthy of our attenttion.

    Let's learn how to take the same game that we tasted two years ago and, adding a new control scheme, the experience changes from top to bottom. That's what 5th Cell has managed to do with Super Scribblenauts - It's the same as the first one, but it just takes the experience to another level.

    The new entry on the CSI game series is just more of the same: identical gameplay, same characters, poor visuals, good voices, not-so-interesting plot... Followers of the TV and game series will enjoy this new chapter, but it's not what this Las Vegas team really deserved.

    GoldenEye is not the remake many were expecting, and it doesn't live up to the original. GoldenEye is its own game, a new entry on James Bond's series, with great plot and gameplay and, even more important, one of the best FPS out there for the Nintendo Wii.

    Ken's Wrath has some good ideas and offers us a glimpse of what a Hokuto no Ken's game could be. But this is not that game, as it's repetitive, with many visual issues and an important lack of personality. It feels more of the same with the Warriors series, and it's dissapointing and several levels.

    Kinect Joy Ride it's the racing game that uses Kinect to bring us a controller free driving experience, but the main flaw is the imprecise control that lacks the overall experience.

    Lost Horizon is a classic point'n'click game. An interesting game, with great visuals.

    Ilomilo it's a fantatsic puzzle game with a great artistic design and a good soundtrack. More than 40 levels, cooperative mode and full of secrets, is a great game for XBLA.

    Original, quite fun and incredibly surprising. Shu Takumi's latest work's probably his best so far, although it's far from perfection. Buy it and you'll have tons of hours to have some fun dealing with the misterious death of Sissel, the ghost detective.

    Dragon Knight Saga solves many of the problems of the original Ego Dragonis thanks to an updated engine, a heaviliy modified 360 version, and an expansion that completes the original title, letting shine many of the great things Larian achived with the original launch. The result is a fantastic Hack'n Slash with a surprising deepness, excellent mission design, great sense of humour, and tons of quality content.

    Raging Blast 2 is just for fans. Spike doesn't change the gameplay, sometimes frustrating, and this means a poor fightihng title.

    Treyarch archieves with Black Ops the best single player campaign in a recent Call of Duty; spectacular, memorable, well driven and with a very solid script, and wraps it with some other extras that denote special care to the solo-player. The multiplayer shines as usual, adding few new modes that blend in very well in a mode that will make the game last exciting moths. On the other hand, AI flaws, respawn patterns and the engine performance are COD's endemic sickness that need to be seriously reconsidered in the short therm or they could pull the franchise down.

    Nightsky is another beautiful 2D game from Nicklas Nygren "Nifflas", where he shows his will to keep experimenting in the field he hopes to master. In other games he tried new formulas around exploration, creation and puzzles in his huge bidimensional worlds, but his new title is a different beast and he really focus on physic manipulation to solve puzzles through levels, adding and taking away mechanics to create a rich game with an excellent ambiance and music.

    Splatterhouse is a fun game, with a great gameplay and unforgettable moments. Many things to do and to unlock, an interesting replay value, and the feeling of playing a classic game in an HD console are what make this game so interesting overall. It has its faults, but they are easily forgotten.

    One of the first Kinect boarding games lacks of depth in all the game modes that features, becoming in a moment to a forgettable experience.
