    • 72 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    A little light on true 'classics' and over-reliant on shooters but excellently converted to PSP, which should at least delight the old-skool crowd.
    • 67 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    There are a few enjoyable moments, but Oil Rush doesn't manage to thread them together into an entertaining whole.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    A beautifully camouflaged, yet simplistic hack 'n' slash that looks great, and plays okay. If you yearn for the RPGs of yore, look elsewhere, but as a mindless brawler it's not without merit.
    • 70 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    A promising if scruffy brawler with an ill-advised open world element tacked on, Corporate Fury is destined for cult status.
    • 77 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    The same old Tap Tap beat-matching gameplay we love, applied to an oddly restrictive structure we don't.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Sky Tourist Blitz Trip is fun, but it's tempered by a lack of original ideas, and some really frustrating difficulty spikes.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    A fast-playing, multi-faceted strategy game that works well on mobile, but which deserves more flourish and less bugs than it gets in this workmanlike conversion.
    • 67 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    A fun feline firing fest, but lacking something special.
    • 74 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    There's nothing broken about Silverfish DX, it's just that once you've got to the point where you want, no need, something more, it doesn't deliver. You'll find some fast arcade fun here, but in the end it wears out its welcome a little too quickly to recommend it in the most wholehearted terms.
    • 66 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Despite a couple of interesting elements, Picdun 2: Witch's Curse is the very definition of an average dungeon-crawler.
    • 64 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    While it tries to tackle some of the problems inherent in the smartphone FPS, Razor: Salvation ends up feeling dull because of it.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Despite a bland single-player experience, Dead on Arrival 2's multiplayer is just enough to make it worth a look.
    • 67 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    A bright and bouncy arcade brawler that never feels tight or deep enough to warrant the repetition.
    • 68 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Not the finest poker sim around but a solid and comprehensive effort nonetheless.
    • 80 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    With time we hope that Capcom can nail down the problems affecting net play, but as it stands Street Fighter IV Volt is best appreciated by newcomers and should be approached with caution if you already own the original release.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    While Hexanome is mechanically sound and technically tight, it remains a curiously distant and uninvolving puzzler.
    • 73 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Presenting colourful soccer action in a pleasingly strategic way, Soccer Moves just lacks a little of the fluidity and expansiveness of the great game.
    • 73 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    An adorable prehistoric romp, Chop Chop Caveman has sharp, modern graphics and clunky, stone age controls.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Tarisland is a decent MMORPG with cartoonish graphics, intuitive controls, and a standard combat system. However, the game's characters and storyline aren't distinct enough to be memorable.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    A simple pleasure for an hour or so, but lacks the longevity of its iOS peers.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Fans of CRPGs will discover a lot to love in Atom RPG and might even find some of its lesser flaws - like occasionally wonky writing - to be endearing. For those who usually avoid the genre, however, it certainly isn't going to change their mind.
    • 56 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    The Eternal Night tries its best to capture the classic Spyro recipe, but is let down by poor design, an unfair camera and infuriating difficulty spikes.
    • 75 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    City of Brass has a great whip, but the rest of the game could do with some polish.
    • 61 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    The ability to play Arkanoid online is extremely welcome but ultimately this somewhat lightweight DS instalment fails to improve on previous versions of Taito's classic Breakout clone.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    The kids might pester for anything starring the eponymous goat, but if you already own the original game, resist their nagging. There's nothing new here.
    • 60 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    While solid and bracingly difficult, A Knights Dawn is a very average tower defence experience.
    • 54 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    While the mini-games in the package really sparkle, Moops is let down by some below par three dimensional adventuring sections.
    • 63 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Avoid the poor multiplayer modes and occasional single-player slowdown, and Pro Evolution Soccer 6 offers a solid enough footy experience.
    • 58 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Simple, addictive and entertaining concept that could have been dangerously compulsive with a little more balance and polish.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    There are some neat ideas here, and Beat Stomper is fun, but it doesn't quite justify the investment it asks from you.
