Two and a half years later, Machinarium still is one of the best adventure and a must play for every iPad 2 owner.

Bleach: Soul Resurrección could have been a much better game than a clone of Dynasty Warriors: its disjointed, repetitive levels pay no respect to the complex plot and characters written by Tite Kubo and newcomers will understand nothing out of them while fans will probably enjoy just the very good visuals and fanservice and get bored quickly with its dull gameplay.

F1 2011 is a big step forward from the prequel. Codemasters has listened the feedback and worked so much on the multiplayer and all the small details. Good work too on the technical aspects of the game but we'd like to have 60 FPS.

Perhaps it doesn't add anything new to the gameplay of the previous chapters, but Gears of Wars 3 is simply the perfect conclusion of an epic saga.

Two epic adventures, Chain of Olympus and Ghost of Sparta, with one of the greatest video game characters ever, Kratos, return for the first time on Blu-ray Disc. The games are a remastered port of the two PSP installments in the series with new high-definition resolutions, stereoscopic 3D and graphics locked in at 60 frames per second, DualShock 3 rumble features and Trophies.

Contre Jour doesn't break any new ground, but still its unique graphic style, gorgeous music and solid gameplay make it a must-buy for puzzle lovers.

A war adventure into the jungle that is magnified by the evocative setting. Unfortunately this new stand-alone expansion comes with graphical issues and lack of multiplayer changes. But the single player experience is good and the cooperative gameplay is a very nice add.

The last episode in Agharta Studio's franchise is clearly a better, longer and polished game, but there are still many flaws from the previous chapters, for example the lack of an hint system that can help the player or a bad Italian translation.

Driver Renegade 3D sports quick, immediate and amusing gameplay, but no content beside a brief Story Mode and a monotonous Career Mode. With no multiplayer to be seen, this is a missed opportunity and a game not to buy, at full price at least.

Hard Reset is a great game, a hardcore FPS that brings to the table some very nice ideas and tests your skills level after level. The gunplay works very well, with a huge sense of impact and a great number of different enemies to fight, and the graphics prove indie games can even compete with high budget titles.

Resistance 3 has an enjoyable single player that lasts the right amount of hours. The plot is good but it starts to lose appeal from the middle of the game. Good words for the multiplayer too with a complete redesign from the second chapter that boosts the fun factor and the gameplay mechanics.

The first three classic Mortal Kombat in one single bargain collection, back to the 90 again with these ultra-violent beat'em up perfectly converted on next-gen consoles and PC.

One of the best games released this year on iOS, Iblast Moki 2 is a perfect mix between phisics-based puzzles and social games, and another application of the Little Big Planet concept: Play, Create and Share.

The Wii version of Driver: San Francisco has nothing in common with the excellent game developed by Ubisoft Reflections on Xbox 360, PlayStation 3 and PC. This is rather a classic episode of the series, with the same old gameplay, cumbersome controls (and you can't customize them in any way) and mediocre graphics.

With the right price it is possible to buy two masterpieces of the videogame culture playable with a HD resolution and collecting trophies.

While the first episode delivered a great gameplay without worrying about graphics and user interface, DrawRace 2: Racing Evolved comes as a real AAA title, very polished and stylish, with plenty of races and modes (multiplayer included).

A masterpiece which genuinely refreshes the JRPG genre without losing track of its tradition. Visuals are absolutely gorgeous and pushes the hardware to the point it's hard to believe we are playing on Nintendo Wii. Storytelling, art direction and soundtracks are definitely top notch. Fans of the genre and newcomers will definitely love it: must have.

This second episode doesn't improve too much the gameplay of its prequel but it adds new contents and new humor to the series. The only big problem for us is the lack of an italian translation.

Zen Wars is an unusual strategy game with a distinct sense of humour. However, polished graphics and epic soundtrack come with flawed gameplay mechanics and a too short Campaign.

Fun, short and crazy hard but not frustrating. VVVVVV is just a nice, very well design piece of indie game.

Great for series newcomers, just an additional data pack for people that already played Tropico 3. But you'll definitely enjoy being El Presidente.

Zombie Gunship is an original and engrossing shooter that balances its lack of variety and content with a well-designed upgrade system which ultimately encourages you to play it over and over again.

Well-designed puzzles mixed with a never seen combat difficulty: if all you want to do is play more DeathSpank action, then this will certainly do the job.

Nothing is more addicting than Jetpack Joyride: an easy concept to understand but a long lasting gameplay to master. And with its price, it would be a crime to not buy it.

Age of Empires Online could has been a great free to play game. Unfortunately a bad implementation of the freemium model ruins all the instances.

Green Lantern: Rise of the Manhunters is a very mediocre game. Everything from graphics to gameplay is poorly implemented.

Mega Mall Story shares some issues with the previous made-in-Kairosoft games, like touch controls far from perfect and its lack of replayability. Anyway there is no doubt that this one is the best and deepest sim the Japanese studio has developed until now.

Dead Island is an interesting hybrid with elements of FPS and RPG with a survival horror mood that draws inspiration from many other games, but it succeeds in creating something new. With its gigantic island freely explorable, tons of quests and permanent sense of fear it's more an open world RPG than an action game and it certainly has some flaws. But it's quite unique and a very good cooperative experience for 4 players.
