    Adrenalin Misfits
    There's a decent range of game modes, but none are as engaging as the other ten year old snowboard games it's trying to copy.
    • 48 Metascore
    • 30 Critic Score
    FlingSmash
    It's only a cheap pack-in title but this not only fails as a game, it's also a terrible way to show off the Wii Remote Plus/Wii Motion Plus.
    • 30 Metascore
    • 10 Critic Score
    Fighters Uncaged
    All hardware launches have their shovelware and this is the most glaringly awful for Kinect.
    • 48 Metascore
    • 30 Critic Score
    The Fight: Lights Out
    It often seems like you're making more effort in the game than the developers did, with this miserable showcase for PlayStation Move.
    • 77 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Dead Nation
    A fairly cynical attempt to mix Left 4 Dead with a twin stick shooter, but there are still some interesting ideas in amongst the far too familiar ones.
    • 85 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    The Sly Collection
    Consistently underrated at the time this masterful mix of influences makes hardly a single mistake in all three games - and definitely deserves a fourth.
    • 89 Metascore
    • 90 Critic Score
    Need for Speed: Hot Pursuit
    The best arcade racer of not just this year but this whole generation of consoles, with an unrivalled sense of speed and the sheer joy of competition.
    • 81 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    GoldenEye 007
    Despite all that could have gone wrong this is one of the best remakes this generation, with a triumphant return for old school split screen multiplayer.
    • 87 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Donkey Kong Country Returns
    Donkey Kong Country is still no classic platformer, but this reboot comes surprisingly close to rivaling modern Super Marios.
    • 61 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Create
    It's the imagination of the developers that seems at fault here, not the player, with little real opportunity to create anything - just rearrange it.
    • 62 Metascore
    • 30 Critic Score
    Raving Rabbids: Travel in Time
    A return to the mini-game collection formula proves predictability disappointing, with slightly more complex games but even less variety.
    • 58 Metascore
    • 40 Critic Score
    Disney's TRON: Evolution
    No matter how the new movie turns out this tie-in makes all the usual mistakes with bland, unoriginal action and an incoherent narrative.
    • 87 Metascore
    • 90 Critic Score
    Call of Duty: Black Ops
    The best Call Of Duty Treayarch has ever made, with several set pieces that are amongst gaming's very best. The multiplayer is usefully enhanced too.
    • 46 Metascore
    • 30 Critic Score
    Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon
    Ghost Recon re-imagined as the most boring Time Crisis clone imaginable, with a mix of genre and franchise that should never have happened.
    • 73 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    Disney Epic Mickey
    A bad idea poorly realised, with some below par 3D platforming married to mismatched graphics and a vague and unsatisfying morality system.
    • 84 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Gran Turismo 5
    Fans are unlikely to be too disappointed, and the developer's automotive obsession is always evident, but this is definitely a refinement not a revolution.
    • 68 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    EA Sports Active 2
    A terrible disappointment given the Wii original, with some very sloppy use of Kinect and more bugs than Fallout: New Vegas.
    • 76 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Guwange
    The name and the screenshots have probably put most people off already but this is a classic example of Cave's mastery of the 2D shooter.
    • 38 Metascore
    • 20 Critic Score
    Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, Part 1
    EA have saved the worst for (second to) last in this laughably poor third person shooter that fails as both a tie-in and a game.
    • 89 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood
    Its goals and improvements may be more modest than the last game but this is still an enjoyable return trip to Italy - especially in the company of friends.
    • 78 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Sonic Colors
    The road to Sonic's redemption is a long one, but this is a much surer step towards it than any other game in the last 15+ years.
    • 62 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    Blood Stone: 007
    Almost everyone does it better than this bland, unambitious shooter that manages to squander all of the developer's usual talents.
    • 73 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Your Shape: Fitness Evolved
    The underlying technology and use of Kinect is impressive, it's just that the package as a whole seems a little undercooked.
    • 74 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Kinectimals
    The concept is clearly not going to appeal to anyone with an age in double digits but the game makes much better and more varied use of Kinect than almost any other title so far released.
    • 61 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Kinect Adventures!
    Once the novelty has worn off - which will only take a couple of goes with lesser games like 20,000 Leaks - you'll never want to play any of them again.
    • 82 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Dance Central
    It's not a new idea, the feature set is thin and the presentation is mediocre. But it's still the best dance game - and the best Kinect game - so far.
    • 73 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Kinect Sports
    Just as shallow and unoriginal as you'd expect, and with some fairly obvious technical issues. But it still offers hope for the future of Kinect.
    • 76 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    The Sims 3
    It was probably foolhardy to ever try to bring The Sims 3 to consoles and despite a spirited attempt this is just a shadow of the PC version.
    • 74 Metascore
    • 40 Critic Score
    WWE SmackDown vs. Raw 2011
    Every year this moribund franchise goes without a complete overhaul the more obvious and unacceptable its half-decade old problems become.
    • 87 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Red Dead Redemption: Undead Nightmare Pack
    The whole package absolutely shames most other downloadable expansions (including the earlier Red Dead ones) and as silly and shallow as it all is it's just as unmissable as the main game itself.
