Hybrid 2: Saga of Nostalgia is an action-rpg based on the journey of Gray, a young hero who is looking for a way to rescue his love Fairy. The game could be funny, however there are too many gameplay and technical bugs that ruin the overall experience.

Ozone represents iPhone gaming at its best: it's simple, fun, addictive, cheap and beautifully designed. Moreover, user-created levels make it a virtually never-ending experience.

While remarkable as a meditative and artistic experience, Osmos could not be considered a true winner due to the repetitiveness of his missions and a general lack of excitement for the player.

Need for Speed: Hot Pursuit is a nice racing game, that provides hours of entertainment thanks to a good number of missions. However, the tilt controls seem to be a little inaccurate when it comes to rapidly avoid obstacles and perform powerslides, while there are several things missing from the previous episodes, like car tuning and an online multiplayer mode.

Modern Combat 2: Black Pegasus is an excellent FPS, with nice and accurate controls. The single player campaign is short but pretty intense, while the four online multiplayer modes offer hours and hours of entertainment thanks to the ranking system. Packed with some of the best graphics ever seen on an iPhone, this game definitely rocks. Don't miss it.

It's easy to instantly like The Incident, thanks to its original concept, frantic gameplay and cool visuals: however, the game dramatically lacks content, and the later levels become too much long and monotonous.

Call of Duty World at War: Zombies II is only interesting and nothing more. Nevertheless, for fans and especially for lovers of the genre, Call of Duty World at War: Zombies II remains a valuable opportunity for recreation.

BioDefense: Zombie Outbreak is yet another tower defense for iPhone, in this case with a somewhat original scenario and a very good mix of both interface and controls. What a pity it offers only ten missions and two weapons.

Alive 4-ever Returns is a really funny game, with a lot of enemies and weapons; the co-op mode is potentially infinite and the single player campaign is long and various. However, this sequel is just a "more of the same", without any innovation or difference. If you liked the first Alive forever, you certainly will love this Returns, but If you didn't like it, there's no reason to buy this sequel.

2XL Games is great about the graphics, but still needs to improve gameplay wise; Trophylite Rally is a beautiful, but ultimately boring and generic racing game.

What if Patapon converted itself in a tower defence game? Dinosaur Slayer is a brilliant App for iPhone/iPod Touch with a deep and structured gameplay that lasts for hours of fun and challenge.

Devil Invasion delivers a particular mix of puzzle game and tower defense that works good, with lots of stages to complete and four different spells to cast. Give it a try.

Denki Blocks isn't just a Tetris clone, but it's an original reinterpretation of the generic puzzle games based on blocks movements. The sensibility of iPhone's touch screen gives to the game a fantastic feedback. However, Denki Blocks has a random difficulty level so many schemes are too easy, other are too difficult.

Dead Rising Mobile comes as a boring and repetitive third person action game, with clunky controls and mediocre graphics. It has definitely nothing to do with the original game.

Funny and colorful, De Blob Revolution lacks of deep after few hours of play and has no multiplayer mode to extend the longevity. Still worth a try tough.

Cut the Rope is another App Store hit from Chillingo, and it could be considered as a killer App for iOS devices. A must buy.

With two different campaigns, two modes (standard and survival), a lot of stages and a great gameplay, Crap of Defense is an awesome action game for your iPhone or iPod Touch. The graphic style is also tremendously "trash" and funny. Don't miss it.

Even if it's less polished than Might and Magic: Clash of Heroes, chronoSgear can offer a truly fresh and uncommon experience, that is very different from any other RPG on the App Store. The combat system is clever, while setting and characters are really unusual. With the next updates, we hope Axion Logic will fix the controls and balance the difficulty.

Chopper 2 is a total evolution from the first episode: better graphic, more missions, more variety but the same fun. However, it's still just a simply arcade game; but if you are looking for an immediate and fun iPhone game, it could be the right choice.

A perfect example of how a GDR should be made. Square Enix has managed to develop a deep and involving story with a great combat system and a lot of things to do through the game. Must buy.

Although way better than the previous chapter, Blue Defense: Second Wave! is certainly less ambitious than Red Conquest. It must be said though that even if the game lacks any real additional mode, plot or multiplayer experience, the new units and the deeper control system will satisfy any hardcore gamer that thought the first Blue Defense was too easy.

Blokus is a clever and interesting board game, that will appeal both to casual and skilled audience; besides the repetitiveness, the only problem is that it's a bit too pricey.

More than just a game, BIT.TRIP BEAT is an enjoyable experience that combines sounds and images, encouraging the players to improve their performance through a series of trials. The four stages available in the basic version are well balanced, nice to see and full of sounds and colors.

Sword & Poker 2 is once again a perfect mix between rpg and poker, it delivers also a lot of fun regardless you have played the first chapter or not.

With Monster Mayhem a new kind of action game is born: the Tower Offense. So no passive defense, no war machines set in a battle camp, no position strategy; only violence, weapons and armament management, but of course with smile. Blood and comicality are wisely mixed in this game and if you are bored about the classic "tower defense" games, this is what you are looking for.

It's true, there are too many "ultra arcade games" on the App Store right now, and most of them become quickly boring and repetitive. But Monster Dash is slightly different: though the game keeps the classic "survival" structure, it gives you a health bar, four different stages and a lot of weapons to blast the enemies. If you like the genre, don't miss it!

1112 Episode 02 is simply unforgivable. Louis Everett has to interact with unappealing characters, trying to clarify a plot that gropes in the dark from the very beginning to the end.

Meridian has certainly done a good joob in creating a not-so-elaborate but effective game, with charming graphics and strong gameplay mechanics. Armageddon provides a lot of extra contents - from artworks to alternative game modes - and the OpenFeint support expands the formula with social features like leaderboards and achievements. Unfortunately, the 70 too-much-similar levels weigh against the final evaluation, while the high difficulty could demoralize some players.

Aqua Moto Racing 2 is a sequel with a lot of improvements; it's an arcade racing game of course, but the water's movement can give to the acquascoters some kind of realistic reactions; it's not perfect, but it's enjoyable, so if you like water races, you will love it.

AirAttack is a great arcade vertical shooter, with impressive graphics and original gameplay; to become perfect, it should have some more missions.

Nail'd is a decent off road game, with beautiful visuals and stunning track design, but it is not as rewarding and challenging as an arcade game should be. The greatest flaws of the package are that the game is too easy for a long time and the handling is just a walk in the park, causing a near boredom experience.

Raskulls is a bit of everything, from a platform to a racing game, quoting a lot of classic games with a fresh and cool appeal. It has a good multiplayer too.

Ilomilo is possibly the cutest puzzle game available on Xbox 360. It's even a well crafted and compelling game and one you shouldn't really miss if you don't get scared by games which may get tricky for your brains.

This new DLC does not succeed in becoming a must have for every gamer out there and case west ends up being reccomended just to Dead Rising hardcore fans.

Zeit 2 is a truly hardcore gamer shooter, which may get really frustrating on your nerves. If you are looking for an extreme experience this may be what you are looking for, otherwise you may want to steer away from it.

Dead Money has clearly been made for New Vegas veterans, it offers great longevity and ask you to forgive its trial and error structure. If you are a veteran and you like to try and fail, you should give this DLC a try.

You may love or hate Deadly Premonition and its pure heart hidden beneath errors, strange structure and PlayStation 2 graphics. Don't get fooled by the outside, there are plenty of good things hidden beneath this rough surface.

With its evolutions in graphics and level design, Dead Space 2 represents a "more of the same" in its best expression. Scary, challenging and entertaining, the Visceral's game confirms itself as the new paradigm of the survival horror genre.

Shadow Guardian is a nice third-person action adventure which does almost everything right: however, the sheer lack of personality makes it much less enjoyable than it could've been.

Gameloft has boosted the FPS genre on mobile devices... again. N.o.v.a. 2 is not only the most important game in its Winter lineup, but it's also the best first person shooter on iPhone and iPod Touch, thanks to an impressive multiplayer mode and a single-player campaign that combines a great control scheme with an extremely rare graphics. Of course, the game lacks of originality, while the plot is not so catchy. But it's an insignificant flaw, mostly if compared to the overall quality of the title.

Golden Sun: Dark Dawn is an excellent JRPG. Surprisingly, gameplay is extremely close to previous installments in the franchise and it's quite baffling Camelot did not dare to do more with this third episode. Despite this flaw in originality, Golden Sun: Dark Dawn is a well done and refined lengthy adventure but it does not win over Dragon Quest IX: Sentinels of the Starry Sky as the DS game of the year.

Vikings can fly! is just a funny way to spend some time, but it's really well done: a mix of strategy and madness, that can appeal to anyone.

Hero Project's gameplay is based on the same elements that made MMORPGs so popular: a customizable character that strengthens from gaining experience. The point is you have to complete a large number of mission in order to achieve that goal, most of which require literally hours of waiting but can be instantaneously completed by buying some (expensive) credits.

The 7th Guest is seventeen years old and it shows its age in a bad way. The problem is not only in its ancient technical aspect but in the puzzles too. These are just a few, nearly 20, and are extremely difficult to understand.

There are not many reasons to complain about Adrenaline, because it's certainly the best game in the Asphalt series. Asphalt 6 takes advantage of the iPhone hardware to generate impressive graphics with more solid framerate. With names like Ferrari, Lamborghini, McLaren, Ducati and BMW, the game can offer some of the most outstanding and various car licences on the App Store, while the single player mode can make player busy for several hours. Unfortunately, the multiplayer mode (online and local, via Wi-Fi or Bluetooth) isn't so good, offering only one type of challenge with just 6 players.

With its clever level design and smoothly implemented physics and controls, Hydroventure is a relaxing and charming, though very challenging experience and one of the best game currently available on WiiWare.

Ultimate Mortal Kombat 3 could be an interesting mobile episode while waiting for the new Next Gen version; however, the bad control system makes this experience like a nightmare.

While TRON: Evolution came as a nice tie-in both on Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3, the Wii version is very different. Battle Grids comes as a simple, mediocre party game indeed, with some of the worst controls we've ever experienced on the Nintendo console.

MotoGP 2010 offers a good number of motorcycles and tracks thanks to the official MotoGP license, but in terms of gameplay it's a very cumbersome experience.

Beyond the unavoidable considerations about the suitability of a city-building simulation game as SimCity Deluxe to a portable device, it must be said that the EA title becomes a real blast after a few minutes in which you have to understand what to do and how to do it.

Pirate's Treasure is definitely one of the best twin-stick shooter available on App Store, but it suffers from the same negative aspects of other similar titles, and so it's repetitive and pretty flat all around.

Angry Birds has been a huge hit on the App Store, so it's pretty understandable that other developers wish to follow in its footsteps. The problem is Floop doesn't shine like Rovio Mobile's title: the controls are often inaccurate and it's less challenging, giving you the chance to complete too much levels in just a few seconds.

Pro Zombie Soccer is an action game based on a different approach to the genre of Tower's Defense. The game is funny and intense, the touch controls works very well and the variety is guaranteed by the different kind of enemies; the only big problem is that it lasts just about 2 hours.

Prequel of Solomon's Keep, in Solomon's Boneyard it's possible to use 7 little wizards, against a young Solomon Dark and his malefic creatures. The wizards attack the enemies with different kind of power, in an endless horde-mode; every character has a personal strategy, so variety and fun is guaranted.

Wispin is a nice "survival" action game, with a lot of different enemies to kill. The tilt controls don't seem to be accurate like the touch ones, while the presence of a health bar instead of a single life saves us from frustration.

Full of humour and action, Plunderland is a successfull example of simple mechanics implemented in a really good way. Every flaw will be fixed by the forthcoming update, with new levels and game modes. At the beginning it's not so easy to say why Plunderland is so special, but once you are at the helm it will be really hard to come back on dry land.

Hammer of Thor is a great first entry in the Rimelands series. Thanks to its charming dice combat system and the articulated skill tree, it is without any doubt one of the most enjoyable RPGs on the App Store. However, the game greatly stumbles in its storytelling, boring and full of clichés, while the adventure is too much linear and there are very few secondary missions.

ChuChu Rocket! for iPhone and iPod Touch is in some ways better than the original (thanks to the touch controls), but the lack of an online multiplayer mode is really deprecable.

Eternal Legacy brings a combat system which is classic and works well, impressive graphics and a very dense and long story. Of course it would have been better with a more original and genuine style, as well as a major depth of the characters and a deeper plot. But for just 5€ iPhone users can enjoy a game which is, together with Chaos Rings, one of the best JRPG's on the App Store.

With a mission-based structure, Virtual City ask the player to address practical issues in different cities. The result is an interesting title, with some problems concerning the interface.

BB 3D is an interesting "first person boxing" game, with reactive controls and good animations; however, it's not really a boxe simulator, but just a fun way to hurt monsters with an iPhone or iPod Touch. If you liked "Punch Out", give it a try.

Cave has succeeded in the attempt to create its first original game for iPhone and iPod Touch. The combat system is pretty different from any other twin-stick shooter on the App Store, while the frantic and caotic battles require you to move continuously, avoiding bullets and targeting enemies. Unfortunately, the high difficulty of the game could scare players that are not so tenacious, and the large amount of enemies, bullets and explosions on the screen will strain your iDevice to the limit.

Carcassonne is an amazing classic board game and this version for iPhone is his successfully translation. A solid online multiplayer, gameplay very close to the original game and a single player mode make it a valuable purchase.

Given the technical quality and the excellent matchmaking, Archetype is definitely worth a try for all FPS fans out there. The controls are great, the action is fluid and there is a good number of well-balanced weapons. The matches via Wi-Fi work very well and we experienced very few latency problems. Unfortunately, you can only play team deathmatch on five maps, so the game becomes repetitive very soon.

Game Dev Story is certainly one of the best simulation games on the App Store to date. Sadly it's not really optimized for iPhone and it lacks Game Center support or any other social feature. But it has several good irons in the fire, and the mix of humour and completeness recalls some classics like Bullfrog's Theme Hospital. Well, come to think of it, it's so comprehensive that it would deserve to be released on PC.

Some great graphics and an excellent gameplay can't hide the lack of content of Reckless Racing, a game that simply won't last enough. More courses and some kind of structure in the single and multiplayer would really have changed everything.

Real Racing 2 is not only the best realistic racing game on the App Store; it is also the best realistic racing game on every handeld console ever, setting a new benchmark for the genre in mobile gaming.

Death Worm tries to be more various than Super Mega Worm with a lot of irons in the fire, more than 30 different enemies and an interesting upgrading system. The game has some issues with the camera, but the forthcoming update should fix it and adds a new Survival mode. Yes, the visuals are impressive and there's a lot of stuff to play with, but the 8-bit style and the humour of Super Mega Worm make it more fun and enjoyable. Hopefully, the rivalry between them will force the developers to improve and enlarge the games with the next updates.

Ferrari: the Race Experience, waiting for Gran Turismo 5, is a good racing game based on realistic phisic and simulative gameplay; thanks to all the glamor that only Ferrari can give with its cars, and the budget price, the graphic problems can be easly overcome. So, for a PS3 fan of racing games in abstinence, it's highly suggested.

Blade Kitten is a controversial platform / action game, with some strenghts (Kit can do almost everything, from climbing the walls to fight with a flying sword) and some flaws (the level design is mediocre, the combat system is simplistic and there are some minor bugs). With its nineteen levels, the game will entertain you for a few hours.

Good script and visual style makes up for the lack of variety in Costume Quest and the adorable characters and villains are intriguing enough to appeal players into clearing the game. Turns based encounters are dull and repetitive although you can customize your characters through costumes and stamps, but they are just the main issue of the game. Double Fine released an enjoyable game for a cheap price and we hope for a sequel, perhaps next Halloween or even earlier.

Dimps Corporation had the not-so-easy task to release a sequel without making a remake out of it, keeping it trustful to the original game design while adding new features. As a result, Sonic 4 has its ups and downs and does not stand the top quality of the Mega Drive age Sonic. Nevertheless, Sonic 4: Episode 1 is much more "Sonic" than the latest entries in the franchise, a must-have for the hedgehog's fans and all those unlucky players who never ran in those fancy red shoes.

Earthworm Jim has not aged very much and this excellent remake still shows the timeless awesomeness of this character and his weird adventures. The game itself has quite aged actually and some features and mechanics make the experience more challenging than it should be. Nevertheless, Earthworm Jim HD is an enjoyable 2D platform game and a little bit of videogame history, a chance for newcomers to enjoy one of the best games back in the Sega Genesis age.

The concept here is actually quite intriguing, as such PixelJunk Racers 2nd Lap is a very neat arcade game. However, without mentioning the cheap visuals, the general game design is repetitive and frustrating, not really linked to simple control scheme and ideas such as these. It takes just a few minutes to realize PixelJunk Racers 2nd Lap is more about luck than skills, quite a negative feature for an arcade racing game.

This is not your usual cheap downlodable game, Aqua Panic's level design is excellent and the gameplay is smart and fun, focusing on strategy and reactions. In spite of being quite frustrating in the last stages, Aqua Panic challenge is what lovers of the genre want, especially when brought by such a gorgeous and colorful visual. It might not be innovative, but it is certainly a reccomended puzzle-game.

If you miss the good ol' times of Marble Madness and Monkey Ball, look no further. HamsterBall is an enjoyable game with dozens of excellent tracks and different game modes. It's fun and engaging but not flawless: visual style can be awkward at times and physics doesn't really always work like it should. However, for such a low price those are just minor flaws. And let's face it, hamsters are cute.

Soldner-X 2: Final Prototype is a rather classic shooter, which bases its appeal on those elements that fans of the genre know better: upgradeable weapons, huge bosses, nice levels and a large number of enemies who do nothing but shoot at us. Though its solid gameplay, however, Final Prototype lacks of original ideas and it's way too short.

DeathSpank: Thongs of Virtue</strong> is no doubt more of the same stuff but it's a more of the same we like because it's damn fun. To make things crystal clear, if you enjoyed the previous installment you will also love DeathSpank: Thongs of Virtue regardless of dejavu feelings, but if you didn't go crazy about the franchise before, you will not change your mind. The overall quality is just the same, excellent as much as cheap: a solid, lengthy 6-8 hours adventure, tad harder than before but even more fun.

Scott Pilgrim vs. The World lends itself to different interpretations: if you're a novice gamer, forget this title since it's way too hard and frustrating for actual standards; but if you're thirty years old or more, you'll enjoy Scott's battle though its failures (the lack of an online multiplayer mode) and weaknesses.

Despite the easiness of the gameplay, an interesting and intense screenplay makes Lost Horizon an exiciting and evocative journey around the world.

What Criterion Games has done with Hot Pursuit is immediately visible when you start the new Need for Speed. There are several problems within the gameplay starting with few races modes and too much aliasing on screen. Other than these imperfections Hot Pursuit is a wonderful arcade racing game that everyone can really enjoy.

Call of Duty: Black Ops is a great game with a stunning, quite long, thrilling campaign and a well devised multiplayer with a few good stuff like the wager matches and the ingame currency that let you customize your character.

Waiting for the fourth, promising episode, Unwound Future delivers hours of entertaining puzzles, easily the best designed in the series, and an involving narration that mixes the usual list of charming characters and a moving end. A must have for any DS owner.

The PC version of Lost Planet 2 solves some problems present on consoles, offering some excellent visuals thanks to the DirectX 11 support. Unfortunately, the developers could not remedy to the flaws of the original game (interesting plot but anonimous characters, several short missions in the single player campaign and a mediocre AI), but the combat system is still excellent and there are plenty of nice multiplayer modes. If you loved the first Lost Planet, this sequel won't disappoint you, definitely.

King's Bounty: Crossworld, with two new campaigns and a powerful editor, represents a great value bot for the new and the returning players.

Despite the changes to the UI introduced by the past year episode, Football Manager 2011 remains one of the most complex game on the market, with an infinite number of different possibilities, options and hundreds of hours of gameplay. A must buy for any football fan.

It's not possible to see anything different than the will to use a famous brand, like Final Fantasy is, in this new Square Enix production: behind the cool art direction, tons of weird gameplay decision and a lack of contents make It, at the moment, surely inadvisable.

The twin stick genre is one of the most abused on XBLA, and Alien Breed 2 doesn't do enough to stand from the crowd. A nice game, but far from being an essential purchase.

Although starting from a very good idea, Gods vs Humans lacks variety and after a couple of hours become easily monotonous. It's overall a good strategy game, but with its high price it can't be considered a first choice amid the WiiWare titles.

This is a decent football game, but it's only a distant relative of FIFA 11 for Xbox360 and PS3, and it's far worse than PES on Wii. Try it only if you are a fan of five-a-side football.

All those who miss games like Final Fight or Streets of Rage will find in Sengoku Basara: Samurai Heroes a nice attempt to bring back the same feelings with a different background. The action is clearly very repetitive, but there are plenty of combos and special moves to perform, a total of sixteen characters to unlock (each with its unique campaign) and some very nice graphics both for PS3 and Wii versions.

Probably the best game available on Psp, Ghost of Sparta is a "real" God of War from every perspective, and a fantastic game that every fan of the series should not miss.

Just Dance 2 is something like Wii Sports: a game that everyone could play with no explaining or training at all. Moreover, it's a incredibly fun experience, and a better product compared to the first one in nearly every aspect.

Shaun White Skateboarding for Wii is a very simple title, fairly funny at first but too limited and repetitive in order to entertain for more than a few hours. Ubisoft has decided to shelve the structure designed for the PS3 and Xbox 360 versions, offering a sort of simplification for younger gamers, and the result is disappointing. Better go back to the mountains, maybe.

People who liked Rock Band in his recent appearances on the Nintendo DS will find in this third episode the same gameplay, a decent tracklist and some minor new features. The experience is not particularly innovative, but it is still enjoyable and fun.

If you were expecting a pale remake of the original GoldenEye, you might be happy to know that Eurocome overdid itself by developing one of the most interesting games of this year. GoldenEye 007 is perfectly designed, overall refined and definitely fun to play, being the lengthy and deep campaign or the excellent multiplayer mode. It's also about James Bond, 'nuff said.

Star Wars Unleashed 2 is a good game which manages to improve over its predecessor's shortcomings. It's still too short and samey as a whole. Fans will enjoy it for sure.

A really good start for a new franchise, which is only flawed by the lack of many UFC fighters and a few hic ups.
