Cubit lives up to its title as being hard to the core. It's a neat little platformer, but expect little more.

Not enough Assassin's Creed to appeal to a big new audience, and not different enough in its gameplay to tempt card battler fans away from their current fixes, Assassin's Creed Memories is a disappointment.

There are a lot of good ideas in Alex Rider: Stormbreaker, but the main game is too clumsy for us to recommend it.

Driver Renegade 3D has sparks of greatness in its Career mode, but the main Story mode is a disappointing experience.

Miami Nights might have made a splash on mobile, but it cannonballs Nintendo DS with poor controls and a general lack of fun.

There might be a good game somewhere here, but Little Amazon feels far too cynical to recommend.

One-note combat and some bland settings combine to make Pacific Rim more miss than hit.

It has the potential to be a great game, but Scribblenauts Showdown just doesn't have enough depth or freedom to live up to its name.

As for the DS version, it's a thumbs down and prolonged raspberry from us. When the only thing you can applaud is the competent way the trademark music is used, you know you've a stinker on your hands.

Poor controls and bland missions render what should have been a surefire hit into a flawed shooter.

As enormously flawed as ever, yet curiously enjoyable with it, Mad Dog McCree feels oddly at home on the App Store.

Lacking in character and bloated in fetch work, Unlimited Cruise SP is a clumsily translated import that, just like the game's missing second episode, should have been buried at sea.

Hysteria Hospital is a game that's enjoyable in short bursts, but any prolonged plays quickly leads to a severe case of boredom.

PDC World Championship Darts 2009 fulfills the brief when it comes to its license but there's little to lighten the tone for those who just want a sociable game of arrows.
