    Gray Matter
    Gray Matter weaves an intriguing tale that will please adventure game fans, but won't necessarily impress them.
    • 59 Metascore

    Saw
    A slight, but well-produced, atmospheric and authentic Saw experience.
    • 80 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Skate 3
    Skate 3 just barely surpasses its predecessor to become the best of the genre, but the lack of fresh ideas (along with the various bugs) will leave many people feeling as though their money could have been better spent elsewhere.

    Top Spin 3
    The omission of online support and a purely right handed control scheme is a shame, but if you're looking for a more in-depth tennis game than Wii Sports then Top Spin 3 should be right up your alley.

    Shin Megami Tensei: Devil Summoner - Raidou Kuzunoha vs. the Soulless Army
    Devil Summoner starts out with a bunch of fresh ideas, but still retains many of the problems that plague modern day RPGs.

    Ultimate Spider-Man
    The cell shaded look is effective, and all the environments feel vibrant.

    Strong Bad's Cool Game for Attractive People Episode 3: Baddest of the Bands
    Baddest of the Bands is pretty funny, and has a fair bit of content for your money. It's just not very original.

    Silent Hill: Origins
    Climax has delivered a title deserving of the Silent Hill name, but the experience may be a little too brief or frustrating for some players.
    • 68 Metascore

    Taito Legends
    Probably overall the best retro compilation yet. Capcom Classics has some better games, but the better emulation and presentation of Legends, combined with the greater number and variety of games (no “three versions of each game” here) puts it over the top – just.

    Fury (2007)
    Fury is a lot of fun, but is let down by its lack of diversity. The core gameplay is compelling, but given its lack of options, it isn't likely to hold your attention for very long.

    Apollo Justice: Ace Attorney
    Another solid entry, but the series probably needed more then solid. Weaker characters are offset by new novelties, but it will still be worth a go for fans of the idea.

    Deadly Premonition
    It's as simple as this - you will either love or hate Deadly Premonition. If you're looking for a bizarre game that's so bad it's good, you've found your match. If you're not… well, keep looking.

    The Lord of the Rings: The Battle for Middle-Earth II
    One of the best console RTS titles in a long time, if you've avoided RTS titles in the past on consoles then this game will change your perception on whether they can work or not.

    Spider-Man: Shattered Dimensions
    Slick visuals, a witty script, and a memorable tour of Spider-Man's compelling rogues gallery are ultimately undone by dreary pacing and a pervading sense that Spider-Man: Shattered Dimensions remains sadly unfinished.
    • 67 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    The Godfather II
    The Godfather II may be an offer you'll refuse, but there's enough here to interest someone who would like a sophisticated twist on the sandbox formula.

    Mario Party 6
    While the game offers one of the best mixes of gameplay out of the entire series, I still can't deny that the outdated visuals and audio is really starting to hurt the series.
    • 76 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Lemmings
    The game isn't a huge innovation upon it's predecessors but remains as addictive as ever. One of the best games in the Lemmings franchise.
    • 73 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Sonic Heroes
    Sonic Heroes isn't a drastic change from the Adventure games, and happens to suffer from most of the same problems. That said, the extra nostalgia factor and team play system do make it that little bit better.

    Dragon Ball Z: Burst Limit
    A shiny coat of paint isn’t enough to hide the fact that the depth in the fighting has been somewhat compromised, the game is the lowest on content since the original Budokai title and the least friendliest to those who aren’t fans.

    Pinball Hall of Fame: The Gottlieb Collection
    Gottlieb Pinball Classics is a very enjoyable game and one of the best pinball titles released in a very long time. The game features a wide range of tables and the physics are generally very accurate.

    Hector: Badge of Carnage - Episode 1: We Negotiate With Terrorists
    A great start to a promising new adventure series. It's funny, engaging and we literally can't wait for another dose of Hector's dysfunctional crime fighting skills.

    Army of Two: The 40th Day
    If the thought of you and a friend going Chuck Norris on the bad guys sounds like a fun time, you might find pleasure in bunkering down with this game for a few hours.

    Trauma Center: Under the Knife
    Trauma Centre is much like any other medical procedure - it feels fine until the anaesthetic wears off.
    • 70 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Worms: Open Warfare
    Classic Worms gaming on the go, let down by erratic worms and limited multiplayer options.
    • 76 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Mega Man ZX
    A good first effort for the Blue Bomber's great grand-cousin on the DS. Worth a go for any platform fan, but expect some frustration at points.
    • 66 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    F.E.A.R. Files
    As a package, F.E.A.R. Files is certainly a decent effort but it isn't going to appeal to anyone who isn't after more of the same.
    • 66 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Wolf of the Battlefield: Commando 3
    Commando 3: Wolf of the Battlefield doesn't break any new ground or blow away the competition, but it provides some no-fuss shooting fun.
    • 75 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Pursuit Force
    Some of the features, like jumping from a car to defeat an enemy, swapping cars mid race and combining a variety of vehicles into one game are really good ideas, but the slowdown, poor handling of some cars and repetitive banter really frustrate.
    • 70 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Puzzle Agent
    Puzzle Agent's dark and strange story proves to be quite compelling, but the hit-and-miss puzzles keep this pilot episode from truly impressing.
    • 70 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Prince of Persia: Rival Swords
    A thoroughly enjoyable game and had we not experienced the same campaign eighteen months ago Rival Swords would have been very easy to recommend. Even now the single player campaign holds up well, but the addition of Wii specific controls aren't enough to make this game an essential purchase.
