Pudding Monsters could be an original puzzle game, but it's too simply and above all it can be finished in about 30 minutes! Cut The Rope is far away.

Dark Vale Games created an enjoyable mix between massive role-playing and action games, focused on the PvP. Forge is then a good game, with great potential, but at the moment it just lacks some key elements. We really hope that the development team will go ahead with the support, keeping its promises to expand the game.

Crimson Shroud is too slow and short for the amount of goals it tries to accomplish. Static visuals and tons of texts may turn casual players down but writing is brilliant and the dice system is neat.

This is without any doubt the best console version of Trine 2 thanks to more contents and a best graphical aspect.

Unfortunately, the great idea behind Middle Manager of Justice is partially ruined by its free-to-play nature. Still, it's an amusing and well crafted simulation that get better and better after a slow beginning.

Fast, minimal and fun: Super Hexagon is the new Terry Cavanagh triumph.

Ratchet & Clank: QForce is short and lacks content and variety, but fun nevertheless if played with or against a bunch of friends. A full scale entry in the franchise might benefit more from these interesting new mechanics.

Contract Killer Zombies 2: Origins comes with excellent touch controls and a good variety of missions. One of the most enjoyable third person shooters available on the App Store so far.

No matter if you're a fan of action games or RPG, the Mass Effect trilogy is something you've got to play in this generation.

Miasmata is a great experience for survival gamers, where you will fight more against the island than monsters.

Mighty Switch Force! Hyper Drive Edition is a pretty hardcore 2D puzzle platformer for all the fans of the genre.

Flashout 3D is a clone of Wipeout, but it's generally well done. The most important limitation is about the controls. The absence of the "Aribrake" is a very serious issue for the gameplay.

The War Z is a total disaster. The worst zombie game ever made.

Big Sky Infinity may not appeal every shoot 'em up aficionado out there, but it truly is one of the finest and most frantic game that Vita owners have seen so far.

Fair free-2-play game for Xbox 360, a good effort from Japanese company Toylogic. Visual style is nice, so the humor, but netcode is poor and need to be improved.

Minigore 2: Zombies is a huge improvement over the first episode and stands as one of the best (if not the best) twin analog shooter available on the App Store.

Euro Truck Simulator 2 is the best truck simulation on the market. Buy it if you love the kings of the road.

Verticus is a simple, fast but unattractive "endless falling" game. It can be fun the first time, but it doesn't last long.

Polished aesthetics, good writing and a beautiful, decadent world presented with a mix of light humor and pessimism, raise Primordia from the multitude of adventures out there.

LEGO The Lord of the Rings on Nintendo 3DS is a low budget porting, lacking in content and flawed by a number of technical issues. It probably could have been much better than this, if not good as the home console counterpart.

Heroes of Order & Chaos successfully catches the essence of the best MOBA games, delivering a deep, challenging experience for all the fans of this genre.

Sure, it's not the most comfortable way to explore Vice City, but the low price and high quality of this mobile version are both very good reasons to get back in the shoes of Tommy Vercetti.

Into the Dead breathes some fresh air into the endless run genre, delivering an atmospheric, intense and nonetheless free experience for your iOS devices.

Nano Assault Neo is a competent twin analog shooter, both solid and fun, but it's also a little too much traditional gameplay-wise and you can beat it in a couple of hours. And that's not cool.

Guardians of Middle-Earth is a good surprise to be the first MOBA game for consoles. The new control system via gamepad works perfectly and the charisma of the Lord of the Rings setting do the rest. The only two maps are a frustrating limitation but although this tactical gameplay and balance are the real bonuses of Monolith production.

Still an outstanding game, however the new features introduced to take advantage of the GamePad are generally superficial and really add nothing to the experience.

Frantic and spectacular, Sine Mora for Vita slightly downsizes its graphics but in return it offers the perfect portable experience for any shoot 'em up fan out there.

Knights of Pen & Paper is a lovely tribute to D&D and RuneQuest, with a nice sense of humour and good pixel art. Its IAP system doesn't spoil the balance of the game, though it requires a little bit of grinding.

The Bowling Dead is a fun, somewhat original action game in which you can kill zombies by using a... bowling ball.

Chasing Aurora looks great, and the controls are amazing. Rarely flying has been so realistic in a videogame. Anyway, the game itself is a "simple" racing game (sort of), and the most interesting part is incrementing the score... without the possibility, at the moment, of sharing it online. Multiplayer mode is fine, but nothing special.

LEGO Lord of the Rings is as fun as every other LEGO game, but mostly for all the Tolkien fans out there.

Modern Combat 4: Zero Hour is a solid FPS, with a blockbuster direction and stunning graphics. The touch controls work fine and are fully customizable, but they lack of an auto-fire option.

PlanetSide 2 is colorful, huge, balanced, fresh and free. You can become stronger paying but you'll never be strong enough to beat a whole army.

The Topware game is too far away from an enjoyable space simulator.

Chronovolt is buggy, slow-paced and jerky in terms of frame rate. There are many action puzzles better than this on mobile devices.

Thanks to some neat ideas, Rabbids Rumble is something more than just a common minigames compilation but not enough to be more than mediocre.

You can see that Shadowgun: Deadzone has potential, but it's also largely unfinished, with lots of lag, serious crashes and few contents. It's free to download though, so it's easy to recommend to try it and eventually keeping your fingers crossed for some huge upgrades.

Mass Effect 3 plays and looks nice on the new Nintendo console, but it's a must buy only for those who didn't get the chance to play it yet and only have a Wii U at their disposal: it's not the best version overall, and still it's pretty damn expensive, considering that one could get the whole trilogy on the other platforms at the same price.

LEGO The Lord of the Rings is, hands down, the best entry in the beloved TT Games' franchise. Filled with content and absolutely trustful to the movies, it's a true gift to fans of Tolkien and videogames alike.

Fifa 13 on Wii U is just Fifa 12 with less game modes, a poor online mode and some new GamePad features. It's a shame that most of them are pretty bland, if not useless at all.

Nintendo Land becomes a great game only when played with at lest 2 friends, and even in this case it never shows the scope or genius of the best Nintendo efforts. It's just a good party game.

AC3 on Wii U has the same content as the other versions with several minor enhancements for the GamePad controller. It's a shame that the frame rate is a little lower and all the bugs of the other versions are still there.

Apart from a few frame rate issues Black Ops 2 is a perfect port of the "old gen consoles", but above all it's a great way to show that GamePad fits perfectly with the FPS genre.

The New Super Mario Bros series finds its dimension in the home consoles, where it becomes an amazing multiplayer game. But it has nothing to share with the innovation, brilliance or quality of its ancestors, and its single player is poor compared not only to Super Mario World, but also to the recent Donkey Kong Country Returns.

Archaic third person shooter based on MacFarlane characters. Aiming is weak, pale graphics and wounding vulgarity make for an average-at-best package. Result is for show hardcore fans only.

Little Inferno is a unique game which warms the player's heart with the flame of art.

The Wii U conversion has several technical flaws starting from the bad framerate during the fights. At the same time it uses the GamePad in a perfect way and the game is still one of the best action adventure of the last years.

Fourteen years have passed since its original release, but Baldur's Gate is still a masterpiece. The Enhanced Edition adds nice content and tuning to a game that every RPG player should have played once time (at least) in his life.

No Time Left is the ending that all fans were expecting. Simply the highest moment of all the series.

The idea of celebrating a tribute to Castle of Illusion while applying the Epic Mickey formula is nice, but the execution leaves too much to be desired.

Hyper is an uglier version of the original Warriors Orochi 3, slower and technically flawed. However, despite the little implementation of the GamePad, the Duel Mode is a great addition, both in single and multiplayer.

The disturbing idea of a child that kills innocent people is good enough for a murder or two. Then it simply bores you to death.

The sequel to one of the most intelligent and addictive eShop games dares to innovate: it's incredible how a little, simple new feature can so inherently change the nature of the puzzles, and this alone is a great achievement. Fallblox may be a little less "perfect" than Pullblox, but remains a great game and it's fundamentally different and new.

Storm the Train is simple, fun and terribly addictive. There are many weapons and items you can unlock, and there are a lot of monsters to fight with them.

It's a delightful game, with joyful visuals and some genuine humor, and Intelligent Systems should be praised for their original approach: however, some serious balance issues keep Paper Mario: Sticker Star from being a true classic.

Call of Duty: Black Ops Declassified delivers an insultingly short single player campaign, with mediocre gun play and an array of problems in terms of online multiplayer.

LittleBigPlanet Karting is a decent racer with plenty of potential, but ModNation Racers was way better in terms of gameplay.

Zone of the Enders HD Collection is a solid package and a good chance for all videogamers to replay a classic series of games.

ARC Squadron is an excellent space shooter, packed with a lot of missions, upgrades and boss fights. What a pity the touch controls don't always work as they should.

The Sega style is clearly visible in Sonic & All-Stars Racing Transformed, both graphically and gameplay-wise, which stands as a solid example of arcade kart racing. Even with some imperfections in the power-up organization and the track design this remains maybe the best choice among the Mario Kart adversaries.

Aloha from Hawaii is a solid running game, filled with some very funny characters and a good number of stages.

If you can get over the fact that this isn't a Silent Hill game at all, this is a nice action RPG with a good atmosphere, but also with a repetitive gameplay.

Marvel Avengers: Battle for Earth is an awesome game for all the young Marvel-fans out there, with nearly perfect Kinect controls and voice commands.

With All-Stars Battle Royale, SuperBot and Sony miss a great opportunity to properly celebrate the huge history of PlayStation. The game is fun and frantic, but it lacks of content and interesting unlockables.

Transformers Prime does a decent job in terms of gameplay, but it's way too short and simple.

Far cry 3 is a great free roaming FPS, full of missions and side quests to embark on, and above all everything we do is perfectly tied in the overall progression of the protagonist.

Absolution has a good longevity and it's a great challenge for the most expert players too. At the same time it has several flaws, starting from the savegame system to the lack of a proper artificial intelligence. However it remains an extremely good stealth game.

Zombiu is a strong launch title, even if the focus and the alignment on a Nintendo console seems a bit forced. However, a shallow combat system and some disappointing graphics keep the game from being much better that what it actually is.

Tokyo Jungle is a great idea taken down by a dull and repetitive gameplay that shows its limits just after a couple of hours.

DoDonPachi Maximum doesn't deliver in terms of graphics, but the overall experience is a blast and will keep you entertained for a while.

While Primal Carnage doesn't offer a wide range of game modes, playing as both a human or as a dinosaur is a really fun experience. The survival of this game on the market will depend on Lukewarm Media, and on the support that the indie team will bring ahead for its game.

Delightfully British in its humour and style, When Vikings Attack is one of the best surprises recently appeared on PSN, offering a cheerful and frantic multiplayer experience based on simple but clever game mechanics.

Picross E is a cheap collection of 150 nonograms that fans will sure enjoy, but the lack of any extra or downloadable content makes the game feel a bit too much barebone.

Skylanders: Giants is basically the same game as one year ago but improved in small but meaningful ways. It's still the best family game around and the quality of the optional figures is really high.

Epic Mickey 2's new features bring plenty of content and side quest that enrich the original structure but also strengthen many flaws in the gameplay. The Disney universe, however, finds in this game one of the most powerful and charming expressions.

Chaos on Deponia is so much better than its predecessor in almost every aspect. The story starts to be really intriguing, the main character has grown and puzzles are well thought and a lot of fun to solve.

Karateka remake is a solid effort with casual audience in mind, there's very few challenge for the player. Game is unbelievably short and simplified, rhythmical parry is a nice idea overall, but we expect something more ambitious from this reboot.

Totem Runner is a funny and somewhat original take on the endless runner formula, and it also boosts some truly stylish and evocative visuals. It's a little light on content, but hopefully future updates will fix this issue.

Angry Birds Star Wars successfully adds something new to the classic Angry Birds gameplay, delivering a rich, fun experience once again.

That Punch Quest is free or not doesn't really matter: Rocketcat's last game is without any doubt one of the most polished, frantic and enjoyable running game on the App Store.

Ravaged is got a great potential thanks to some huge maps, full of vehicles you can use to achieve your goals. The big problem is there are no players online.

A good platform/action game with He-Man and The Masters of Universe as protagonists...a dream that became true for every fan of the series.

Pro Evolution Soccer 2013 for Wii is the same game we played last year, with no innovations whatsoever.

Dragon Ball Z Budokai HD Collection brings together two very old DBZ beat'em-ups, only adding HD resolution to the mix. The result, as you may expect, is disappointing.

Carmageddon delivers a charming, though very frustrating, experience. The game is packed with lots of cars and tracks, and it's very fun to play, but you have to deal with some awkward controls.

With its funny re-imagination of the F1 circuit, F1 Race Stars succeeds in offering an entertaining racer with a good packet of gameplay modes, especially in multiplayer. It's a pity that the core mechanics are a little too chaotic and shallow.

Call of Duty: Black Ops II is not just the usual CoD sequel. The campaign has great replay value thanks to to multiple endings, branching storylines, twists and tough choices, and the multiplayer adds a brand new cooperative vibe to the gameplay.

Farming Simulator 2013 is the ideal game for whom love the agriculture and the agricultural machinery.

Most Wanted on smartphones is a wonderful looking game that lacks some quality gameplay wise.

There's a bit of personality and charm in this adventure, but it still lacks a beating heart under the façade of hilarity and bright colours.

Need for Speed: Most Wanted deeply tries to be original, but its open structure ends up to be a little bit too repetitive. Luckily, there's a lot of fun to be had in multiplayer.

Natural Selection 2 is one of the best FPS online of the last years. It blends FPS and RTS perfectly. Buy it.

WWE '13 is basically the same game Yuke's delivers each and every year on Wii. A few minor changes aren't enough to justify the purchase.

Okami HD is an extraordinary, artistic and epic game that will absorb you entirely.

Zombiewood is not the most original twin analog shooter around, but delivers a solid, addictive and also free experience.

Devil's Attorney is an unexpected surprise thanks to its perfect mix of great presentation, amusing sense of humour and simple but deep game mechanics.

Those who were worried about 343 Industries' ability to fill Bungie's Shoes can take a deep breath, since they almost completely succeeded. If they are able to innovate this formula further the new Halo trilogy will have a bright future.

Repetitive, graphically outdated and with flawed controls, Spy Hunter is a wasted chance to finally revitalize an old cult.
