    Even with its flaws it's a very polished game with great controls, samurais, ninjas, cowboys and robots, what more could you want?

    Whether you’re clubbing together playing online, feeling true-to-life golf motions or getting lost in the inviting single and multiplayer modes, Tiger Woods ’09 on Wii is the golf game to experience. One of the best golfing experiences you can ever have.

    The expanded cast and the tactical battles more than make up for the few visual mishaps. Tales of The Abyss is a joy to play.

    If you are looking for a game with a challenge then look no further. Etrian Odyssey will kill you and keep you coming back for more.
    • 89 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    A lot of depth lies behind a deceptively simple exterior. Fun to play around with but also possible to make great art.
    • 81 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    An incredibly enjoyable game that feels like a mix of an adventure puzzler. The idea may not be totally new but the way it is implemented with the touch screen makes it feel like a fresh experience that you won’t be able to feel on another system.
    • 68 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Another fun way to catch 'em all. With some gameplay changes this is a fine way to spend your time before Black and White are released.
    • 86 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    A more-than-worthy sequel in this inherently awesome franchise. Once you start playing, you won't put it down. That's a guarantee.

    Mushroom Men uses modern presentation values and wonderful artistry to present what is essentially an old-school N64 era platformer. The result? A game you can’t help but fall in love with.
    • 68 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    A simple game which doesn’t require much brain power, a no-nonsense fun game.
    • 82 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    It seems impossible to dislike De Blob. Linear and slightly repetitive it may be, but it's the most colourful and ambitiously fresh project the Wii's seen to date.
    • 65 Metascore

    An entertaining entry in the Resident Evil series, The Mercenaries 3D manages to maintain its addictive quality while gaining portability, allowing you to better your score on your way out the door and beyond.

    • 80 Critic Score
    If you're a fan of Wii shooters, this game is a must. The one issue is with the online multiplayer – when it all flows well it's very good, but when it doesn't it can be very frustrating!
    • 50 Metascore

    A very convincing Vampire themed hidden object game that once again does the genre proud providing an entertaining experience that's enjoyable throughout.
    • 76 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    We're surprised by how well the Alien 'feel' translates on DS, but not by how refined the gameplay is, as Infestation proves that WayForward are unparalleled when it comes to 2D experiences.
    • 74 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    A great football game, a great RPG and a wonderful mix. If you like football or RPGs its for you. If you like both, and maybe even anime, then it is a must buy.
    • 80 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    A great title that really shows what WiiWare can do. The game is addictive and lasts for hours on end, and nice looking graphics.
    • 75 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Infinite Space is a fresh RPG not afraid to try new things, that will overwhelm players like a supermassive black hole...
    • 67 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Limited replayability but if you enjoy your horror games tense with a good story you should enjoy this.
    • 69 Metascore

    An addictive arcade port with loads of unlockables which works perfectly with the Wii Zapper.
    • 83 Metascore

    Low in price, but high in quality, 42 All-Time Classics is one of the surprise highlights of the Autumn DS line-up.

    Samba De Amigo is still a quality rhythm-action title even today and while it's best played in relatively short bursts in single player, it's the multiplayer that will keep you coming back for just one more go.
    • 61 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    A strong 3DS title making full use of the consoles features that has been overlooked. This will keep you busy for hours and those looking for a good 3DS game should look no further and give Samurai Warriors: Chronicles a look.
    • 78 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    A wonderfully calming experience which offers enough refreshing puzzling to feel like a title the DS was built for.

    Prope proves a simple concept can go a very long way, and while the experience won't last forever its a game you'll remember.

    • 80 Critic Score
    The Siege of Spinner Cay feels better than the first chapter in nearly every aspect, so even if it still has its problems, fans should give it a try.
    • 83 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    This generations best version without a doubt, and the finest sports title on Wii to date. If you're a fan of football or the series, buy it now.
    • 80 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    An homage to the old coated in a shine that stands it proud alongside the new. We'd welcome a sequel to tighten up the odd area, but if this ends up being Sakaguchi's last story, he can ride into the sunset in considerable glory.
    • 72 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    For a title that has been away from our screens for far too long, Dr Mario is an excellent revival of a classic puzzle game and a decent WiiWare launch game.
    • 81 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    In terms of longevity, LostWinds is no hurricane, but its quality is as refreshing as a cool breeze on a hot summer's day. Simply magical.

    Ghostbusters is a title oozing with charm and dripping with high presentation values.

    • 78 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    For the wealth of quality that has been put into this title plus the enjoyment to be had from it this really is something that deserves to be in every shoot 'em up fans DS collection.
    • 76 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    A decent return to form for a classic series that manages to combine the old with the new delivering an enjoyable experience for everyone that is entertaining on almost every level.
    • 85 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    The most explosive (and fun) multi-player game out there for the DS. You will love it if you strive to master the controls.
    • 79 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    If you are looking for something cheap, cheerful but downright fun, this is definitely worth a look-in.
    • 75 Metascore

    Another solid addition to the Need For Speed franchise, even if it does have a few annoying flaws here and there.
    • 74 Metascore

    With great graphics and stellar gameplay, GRID offers DS owners a fantastic console experience on the go. It’s more of the same, but with more vehicles, tracks and customisation options GRID will keep all who play it race-happy.
    • 71 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    A beautiful game with a variety of things to do but unfortunately doesn't last as long as you'd like.
    • 78 Metascore

    Get your race on with the All Stars, a good beginning held back in the starting blocks by a few faulty ideas.
    • 85 Metascore

    Short, but a very challenging and fun game.
    • 76 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Unique, quirky, but completely lovable; Puyo Pop Fever is a timeless puzzle game thats immensely fun to play. Classic stuff.
    • 69 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    A successful transition to the RTS genre. With FMVs, long lifespan and nice graphics, it's definently worth considering picking up if you're in to RTS games.
    • 78 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    While not the Mario Kart beater many may have hoped for, Sega All-Stars Racing is still a stunningly good racer that's both well designed and fun to play; definitely worth buying.

    SDvR2010 improves on its previous edition in a number of ways especially with the new Story Designer mode yet still managing to not reach its full potential. If you have 2009, unless you really need an updated roaster I see little incentive to update.
    • 79 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    A decent game, but not as good as what you'd expect under the Metroid name.
    • 80 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    This is as uncomplicated and fun as it can get. Fun for all ages.
    • 75 Metascore

    FIFA 10 goes for style over substance and delivers in parts. Yet the shallow gameplay and lack of realism go a long way to pushing this towards the kiddie market. A real shame for long-time FIFA aficionados.
    • 65 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    More than just a cash-in, but not quite perfect either, the title is nevertheless a great outing for a motley crew of Sega characters.
    • 81 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Sizzling just below perfection yet leaving a pleasant taste in the mouth, Cooking Guide is a unexpectedly novel idea pulled off successfully
    • 79 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Sonic Colours offers some good times and the Wisps are an interesting alternative to simply running, but it's over in a second and feels like there's a lot that could've been expanded on.

    Back in 1996, Resident Evil was a groundbreaking game. Now, it pales to most other survival horrors, especially "RE4."
    • tbd Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    A decent puzzler that has a lot to offer, it's still one of the better 'match 3' games out there, just not one of the best; it's most certainly playable and enjoyable though and you could do a lot worse than this fun single player title.
    • 68 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    The game might have a number of faults but the enjoyment of the battling makes up for it, add to that the WiFi duelling and you’ll be glued to your DS for a long time.

    Our advice: use a GameCube controller, learn the shortcuts, and hope the next one sorts out that boost system.
    • 74 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    A fun RPG while it lasts, but can wear thin over time. Great visuals and level design help overcome some missed potential.
    • 76 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    A decent-but-lacking adventure mode mixes some great and lackluster events, while multiplayer is a blast to play.
    • 79 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    This game should amuse you for a while, but don’t expect any big things from it. It hasn’t got the high quality standard of the regular Metroid titles, but you knew that already.
    • 71 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Guitar Hero On Tour is a good conversion of the console facemelter, but will not become your main source for rocking out. Best saved for when your travelling/on holiday and just can’t go without a Guitar Hero fix.
    • 76 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    As a game its suited for children but it will please adult fans of the franchise as long as they don't anticipate too much.
    • 79 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    The story mode is great even if the character choice is limited. And while the gameplay is very arcade like it's still enjoyable by either upping the difficulty or playing with mates. Online is fun too unless your unlucky enough to get bad lag.

    Wii Fit pushes the envelope due to the board peripheral and the notion of healthy gaming, but lacks fat in areas such as longevity – a staple diet of all software, videogame or not.

    • 69 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    A great game that plays homage to every disaster and action movie ever. It's great fun, brilliantly atmospheric and is only dragged down slightly by some poor graphics and occasional poor pyshics.
    • 73 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    A very solid, fast-paced action romp with islands of greatness in a sea of repetitive combat. Still, there are surprisingly few better Castlevania alternatives on Wii to this day.

    Rygar is an admirable revamp of a once classic NES game, it is still a port of a six year old title though and it shows; however it's still worthy of attention if you missed it the first time around and are looking for a reasonably competent adventure game.

    • 80 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    It’s a good game, spoiled by its flaws. It deserves to be hated and loved in equal measure
    • 76 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    It falls in an uncomfortable category somewhere between good and average that makes it almost impossible to define. There are flashes of genius, marred by long moments of mediocrity. Excellent flight sections are needlessly maimed by an over tight timer and difficult controls.
    • 59 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Endure the few inevitable instances of frustration and your left with a solid sonic spin-off.

    PES 2011 offers slick gameplay and striking 3D yet is let down by having no online mode and some sloppy, minor omissions. Still, for football fans, PES 3D offers a lot of mileage until the expected 2012 edition.

    • 70 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Lacks the appeal of picking up and playing all the way through and sticks too close to the safety of the established third person shooter concept that has been in place for way too long now.
