    Tiger Woods PGA Tour 13
    Tiger Legacy may not be much, but the new online Country Clubs are, as well as the Masters tournament, the gameplay tweaks and the Party Play.

    Rayman 3 HD
    While Rayman is filled with clever dialogue and wonderful music, the gameplay is lacking as racing through levels and mashing the attack button gets old quick.

    Sine Mora
    A welcome return to the "bullet hell" tradition, but offers enough new content and goodies like leaderboards and extra modes to keep it from being just another offering in the genre. It might be too tough for some, but hey, you gotta learn your skills somewhere, right?

    Major League Baseball 2K12
    2K Sports has put a lot of effort into making this one a far greater effort than before, and despite a few hiccups and lack of new content for My Player or Franchise, it's still quite the run around the diamond. Play ball!

    Naruto Shippuden: Ultimate Ninja Storm Generations
    Fundamentally the same game yet manages to take the game in the new direction.
    • 58 Metascore

    Ninja Gaiden 3
    Control quirks and main game length aside, this is as thrilling as ninja games get, and a fun addition to the series, whether alone or with friends. Forget the naysayers and cut loose with good ol' Ryu.

    FIFA Street
    The tour mode is one of the best campaign's found in a sports game yet, with the leveling of the players on your squad creating a bond that I didn't think possible for this type of game.
    • 67 Metascore
    • 84 Critic Score
    Shoot Many Robots
    Though Shoot Many Robots is just missing that very slight edge to make this a classic alongside Metal Slug and Contra, it's a damn good competitor, and the kind of game that thrives life into the run-and-gun genre again.

    Street Fighter X Tekken
    An immensely enjoyable game that is suited not only to the hardcore, but the casuals as well.
    • 69 Metascore
    • 77 Critic Score
    I Am Alive
    You may get into the survival aspect, or you may brush it off. But kudos to Ubisoft for going for the gusto, rather than letting this project fall into complete mayhem. You know, like Duke Nukem Forever.

    Mass Effect 3
    Whether you've been holding your breath since finishing Mass Effect 2 or just now looking to jump into a story-driven video game, Mass Effect 3 provides something for everyone from the single-player to co-op, it's just that f***ing good.
    • 82 Metascore

    SSX
    The mountains are impressive, offering lots of jumps, hidden paths and design diversity to make you feel like you're going through Russia, Siberia, whatever, without confusing the terrain.
    • 74 Metascore
    • 81 Critic Score
    Binary Domain
    Players should not come in expecting a balanced single player and multiplayer like the competition may offer, but instead be pleased by the solid campaign that is different from any other shooter.
    • 74 Metascore
    • 81 Critic Score
    Syndicate
    A game that's merely good, rather than great. Still, the good part is well worth the investment, provided you can find the right team members to join you in a firefight.
    • 79 Metascore
    • 86 Critic Score
    BlazBlue: Continuum Shift Extend
    It's loaded with options, wildly offbeat characters, and the kind of online action that a good fighting game deserves.

    Grand Slam Tennis 2
    The right analog stick controls make the game a joy to play, but everything else surrounding the gameplay doesn't have that same labor of love.
    • 71 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Asura's Wrath
    It's very clear that they wanted to make an anime, but somehow wounded up making a video game instead. It's a short game that you will watch more than you play, only taking about 6 to 7 hours to complete on the hardest difficulty setting. Replay value is laughable, with the only unlocks to be found are different looking health bars.

    Alan Wake's American Nightmare
    It would've been great to have multiple people battling the dark simultaneously, but this is the next best thing, very competitive and lots of fun. And with different weapons to upgrade to, it just keeps on going.
    • 73 Metascore
    • 74 Critic Score
    Warp
    If you're up for a harder kind of game experience and don't mind a little infuriation to go with your gameplay skills, Warp may just be the thing for you. It's got the kind of challenges to really keep you coming back, especially in the challenge rooms. However, if you're a newbie and prefer a platformer that's not so punishing, we recommend a rental first.

    NeverDead
    NeverDead had some interesting ideas, but they play out badly here, between the loose, flawed gameplay and the problematic presentation, not to mention the lack of any significant replay value, despite a few decent game moments and the presence of co-op.
    • 71 Metascore
    • 81 Critic Score
    Gotham City Impostors
    Monolith has made the most out of this outlandish idea, making it throughout enjoyable to romp through stages and level up like a pro. Some online modifications would be nice, but for now, this game's good enough to drive you Bat-ty.
    • 77 Metascore
    • 79 Critic Score
    Shank 2
    Players looking for a side-scrolling game proud and unapologetic for its blunt machismo will get a kick out of Shank 2 and is priced fairly at 800 Microsoft Points.
    • 85 Metascore
    • 91 Critic Score
    UFC Undisputed 3
    There is plenty of rich content, gameplay, and unlockables in UFC Undisputed 3 to crown it the champion of MMA games. But with little to no competition, lets hope each installment can continue advancing as much as this one.
    • 80 Metascore
    • 82 Critic Score
    The Darkness II
    Even though we liked the original game in limited ways, The Darkness II is a fresh sequel that avoids the pratfalls of most comic book licensed games, instead opting for ridiculously bloody gameplay, a solid (for the most part) presentation, and a multiplayer add-on that doesn't feel like a cheap addition, for once.
    • 80 Metascore
    • 85 Critic Score
    Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning
    If you are looking to fill the void left after you completed Skyrim then I can refer no other game than this one. It has everything you expect from the Elder Scrolls series and the combat is really good beyond its minor flaws.
    • 56 Metascore
    • 25 Critic Score
    Kung-Fu High Impact
    The comic book sequences and multiplayer have a few fleeting moments of entertainment, but not nearly enough to justify the $50 cost. Go rent a Bruce Lee flick instead and try to pretend you're him, you'll make a stronger Impact than you ever will here.

    The Simpsons Arcade Game
    We're sure devoted fans will love what Konami has done with The Simpsons Arcade Game's home release, and now it can be introduced to a new generation of players who will discover just how joyous it is. It's a blast from the past that has very little going against it, outside of its length. However, the replay value, particularly from playing alongside friends, easily makes this one worth the D'oh!
    • 77 Metascore
    • 82 Critic Score
    SoulCalibur V
    While SoulCalibur V doesn't quite excel with some of the greatest fighting sequels out there, it's a huge step forward from IV, complete with online multiplayer that's meaningful again, a worthwhile character roster (Ezio rocks it, we're telling you) and a presentation that's as good as the series has ever seen.
    • 68 Metascore
    • 72 Critic Score
    Puddle
    Puddle isn't likely to be a big hit on Xbox Live Arcade due to its ridiculously high difficulty scale and its physics-heavy gameplay. However, if you're a fan of the LocoRoco games or are seeking out a whole different kind of platformer, this one's worth getting your feet wet over.
    • 79 Metascore
    • 79 Critic Score
    Quarrel
    While Quarrel doesn't really do too much to push the word genre forward, it's really not that bad a game at all. While the AI has its moments of cheapness and the presentation could've used a little more ingenuity (and for that matter, lessened loading times), the game has a light-hearted appearance, gameplay that can really grow on you (especially if you're an English major) and online options to make it a real party.
