    Mario Kart, but for adults. You can race in different licensed cars and you can use power-ups against the other drivers. The game contains a lot of fun and guarantees lot’s of hours of gameplay. The singleplayer is cool and also the multiplayer is quite fun. If you’re looking for a cooler Mario Kart, than Blur is your game!

    A nice pool game with good graphics, a cool soundtrack and a lot of gameplay options. You can play in the singleplayer and multiplayer, but the multiplayer is more interesting on a long term.

    Being God is always fun, period! Challenging gameplay and a unique atmosphere make for a very addicting experience, but control issues and plain stupid AI keep it from reaching the absolute top in the genre.

    One of the best racing games this year. The game has an extreme good feeling of speed, it feels realistic and to complete the campaign will take weeks. Need for Speed: SHIFT was a good game, but this is a lot better because Slightly Mad Studios did listen to the feedback of the community.

    There's no Remix modus and that's a shame, but this is by no means a gamebreaker. NBA Jam: On Fire is an accessible and incredibly fun game which will stay in your PS3 for a long time.

    SSX
    It's been a while, but SSX returns with a BANG! EA Canada delivers in almost every way, giving us the best virtual snowboard experience yet. The lack of online multiplayer is the only real downside.

    Crysis is still a fantastisch First Person Shooter, but it starts to show its age. The disappointing enemy AI, the sometimes problematic framerate and the amount of pop-up make for a game that doesn't score quite as high on console as it did on PC.

    When will developers learn that it's not cool to keep forcing us to shut down the entire game if we want to switch titles? Other than that – and maybe the often annoying camera – these are still the great platform games we've come to know and love, only prettier.

    Fight in a lot of important WWII battles in the UK, Russia and more. A nice flight game with a lot of immersion.

    It's not as deep as Street Fighter IV or the Mortal Kombat reboot and the story mode is just awful. There's still, however, a lot of fun to be had with this game and the character creation mode guarantees hours and hours of extra playtime.

    If there's one thing this game suffers from, it's originality. Other than that, Kingdoms of Amalur delivers on almost every level. Overall this is a gigantic and well-developed RPG which will keep you playing for a long time to come.

    This is the perfect example of how a MiNi has to be. It is simple, but with great gamplay, it looks good and the most important thing: it full of fun! One of the best MiNiS you can get.

    A fine collection of the three PlayStation 2 episodes of the Prince of Persia franchise. This collection contains the complete games, HD graphics and of course Trophies.

    Oh sweet originality, how I have missed you. Children of Eden's unique style and exciting gameplay make for a fantastic, spacing experience. The short length and the lack of multiplayer options are the only downsides to an otherwise fantastic game.

    Rage is an amazing game, but we can't help but feel that it doesn't reach its full potential. While the shooting and the racing often works brilliantly, a rather weak story, repetitive missions and a lot of graphical errors ultimately make for a disappointing game.

    A new part in the long WWE Smackdown vs. Raw franchise. It’s got simple gameplay and many of the modes from last year including a few major improvements. It’s a shame the graphics are a little bit poor.

    This is the first episode of five and the first one is trying to be extremely funny, which is a bit too much at some points. On the other side the puzzles are fun and especially for fans of Sam & Max it is a good game to play. Do you like old-school point and click adventures? Then Sam & Max is a nice one to purchase.

    Dungeon Defenders is actually a pretty good game. The game has easy controls, fun characters and the online multiplayer is a blast. The twist on Tower Defense is actually quite interesting and keeps the game fresh for a rather long time.

    This update does bring a lot of new stuff to the table. If you haven't bought the original game yet, this is a must-buy for fighting fans. And even if you have, you shouldn't hesitate to get this.

    A new part in this long running and big franchise. It’s finally got new modes, features and a more dynamic show with a few great improvements in the basic gameplay. Of all the previous released Buzz! games, this one is by far the best.

    You won't find a lot of innovation here, but the same formula still stands its ground. Den defense is a bit underwhelming and the graphics engine starts showing its age, but nevertheless fans should not hesitate to pick this one up.

    This game is everything you would expect from an Uncharted game. It's a superb action adventure title, highly entertaining and almost without flaws. The unique features of the PlayStation Vita are the icing on the cake, fitting nicely into Nathan Drake's newest adventure. Now, if only the story had been a little bit less predictable.

    Explosions, explosions, explosions… You either love them or hate them. If you belong to the first category, than this is your game. If not, well, then you're better off elsewhere.

    This is a good expansion of the existing game with a lot of new gameplay and fun. Every gamer that liked the original should buy this one. It’s the same idea as the original, but with a lot of new things to do.

    Street Fighter IV is still one of the best fighting games, but where Super Street Fighter IV was a upgrade with some new DLC included, Super Street Fighter IV Arcade Edition is a simple upgrade of Super Street Fighter IV. There are some subtile improvements and a few new fighters. But when you have Super Street Fighter IV or Street Fighter IV, than this isn't really worth it.

    The previous game was pretty hard and really funny; this is the same case with Dead Rising 2. The gameplay is completely focused on the many ways to kill the zombies and that is simply cool. If you like the franchise, just get this one, you won't be disappointed.

    While the 2012 iteration of the Pro Evolution Soccer franchise is definitely better than its predecessors, it won't even get close to EA's contemporary FIFA masterpiece. The main reasons are the hideously bad AI, the ancient game modes and yet again the lack of proper licensing.

    A good fighting game with Kratos as a playable character. The gameplay isn’t very special, but it's fun thanks to the good gameplay.

    Since you're essentially buying the same game Capcom has already released twice, owners of the PS3 version won't miss anything essential skipping this. While this is in fact a great handheld fighting game, the touch features throw away any challenge and any skill needed to conquer the stages.

    This new Tiger Woods game has finally The Masters tournament included. The gameplay is as usual fantastic and the small improvements are making the game better than last year. This is one of the best golf games you can get this year.
