    ModNation Racers on the Vita is a boring, unfair, and wholly unnecessary release that manages to be worse than its previous handheld outing despite the Vita's technical superiority over the PSP.

    Too short, too easy and suffering from technical stutters, A.C.E. Air Combat Elite crashes and burns before it can enter the fray.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    This is by no means a bad game - it's just an entirely average title in a genre that's crowded with entirely average games. Worth a look if you absolutely can't get enough tile-matching action.
    • 58 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    A merely adequate approximation of any number of iOS arena blasters, Call of Mini Zombies 2 lacks that crucial vibrancy and flow needed in such an oversubscribed genre.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    A decent enough freemium-builder crossed with a puzzler becomes wholly less palatable thanks to some obnoxiously long timers and so-so presentation.

    • 50 Critic Score
    Attractive, but a little too simple for its own good, Golf Battle 3D is a skirmish, not a war.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    Roswell Fighter Reloaded isn't actively offensive, but it's far too flat and easy to recommend.
    • 69 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    Controversy aside, Manhunt 2 doesn't deliver gameplay entertaining enough to justify its sophomoric sense of humour. A lack of technical polish and censored elements prevent it from being anything more than a fleeting talking point.

    • 50 Critic Score
    Speedway GP looks great, but bad controls and anally retentive gameplay make it mediocre.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    Lacking any sense of character or creativity, Rugby Nations 2010 fails to grasp the real drive behind Rugby Union.
    • 69 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    City of Secrets is attractive and welcoming to newcomers, but the plodding story, forgettable characters, weak puzzles, and atrocious voice-acting ensure it's destined to stay a secret.
    • 55 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    Monster University barely scrapes a pass with an underwhelming and repetitious duo of endless-runners. Could do better.
    • 59 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    Pac-Man's ears may be burning, but Rally-X Rumble is no threat due to its iffy controls and dated unoriginal gameplay. It's all been done better elsewhere.

    Even as a Hello Kitty game for young kids, this mini-game compilation leaves a lot to be desired.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    A perfectly solid but ultimately disappointing tap-to-tilt arcade experience.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    Death Mile delivers a good amount of entertainment for free, but misses the 'good game' mark by a mile.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    Bethesda Pinball shows initial promise, but its single player price points and two-dimension gameplay let the game down overall.
    • 65 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    A shallow and uninspiring multiplayer title, Angry Birds Friends doesn't have the spark that made the series so important in the first place.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    Despite its appealing premise, Fancy Cats isn't particularly fancy, nor is it much fun.
    • 63 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    It wastes a good concept, and Knock-Knock is a bizarre and bewildering experience that will happily alienate all but those most dedicated to experimental games.
    • 66 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    Gamevil's deranged freebie aims for 'quirky', but hits 'annoying'. For nutters only.

    It might be Amore for Namco, but our love affair with Katamari is all but over.

    • 50 Critic Score
    Flip Riders is a ferocious challenge, but rarely an enjoyable one.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    While initially promising, Dot Zone quickly becomes stale and repetitive.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    Ultimately, The Top Spot resembles a stylish screen testing app as much as a mobile game.
    • 56 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    It's cheap and easy to get into, but Table Top Tanks is just too shallow to really enjoy.
    • 63 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    With its ropey physics and irksome controls, Jar on a Bar fails to capitalise on what is an initially engaging premise.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    Far too easy and dreadful value for money, but a lot of people are going to buy it for the cards anyway.
    • 76 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    Heroes and Castles 2 makes a mess of both its genres, offering mushy action and brainless strategy that rarely merge in a satisfying way.
    • 72 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    Another creature firing also-ran, Cannon Cat isn't the worst example of the genre, but it won't keep you entertained for very long.
