    Everybody's Tennis is the perfect game to play on your way to your holiday destination. The singleplayer has many different features and playing tennis does look simple, but can go pretty deep. Graphically the game is nice, but could have been better and the story of the singleplayer is kind of lame. But the most important part of this game is playing tennis and that works great.

    Beaterator isn’t really a game, it’s more a simulation of an audio studio. A lot of samples and intuitive options to make your own great tracks, which you can save on the memory stick and listen every time you want.

    SKATE 3 is a very cool game. It has got a lot of challenges in a huge city and fine but difficult gameplay. If you are looking for a realistic skateboard game, then SKATE 3 is the one you must go buy. The humor is great, it plays great, the audio is cool and graphics are nice.

    This game has a good story and a unique setting. The emotional bond between Monkey and Trip is pretty good and the gameplay is a bit basic, but fast and nice to play. If you like good stories in games with easy gameplay and overall a great adventure, than Enslaved: Odyssey to the West is your game.

    Finally the third part in the franchise is coming to the west. Even though it is a bit different then Western games, it's still a very good game. It's got a great fighting system, a strong story and a lot of hours to play because of the many side-quests. Yakuza 3 is mostly like it's two predecessors, but nevertheless it still contains at the same level of quality fun and its Japanese oriented gameplay.

    A few framedrops here and there, a lack of music tracks and the fact that this is basically the same game as FIFA 12 may be drawbacks. But this is definitely the best football game on any handheld so far and the Vita touchscreen proves an ideal substitute for the normal button controls.

    There are a lot of different puzzle games at the PlayStation Network and Puzzle Dimension is within the genre a new kind of game. The gameplay is pretty complicated to explain in one sentence, but when you love to play different and pretty hard puzzle games, than Puzzle Dimension is a fine choice.

    If not for the irritatingly long loading times, this might well be the best launch title for the PlayStation Vita Sony has in store for us. The feeling of speed still provides a satisfyingly big wow-factor, while the cross-platform options turn this title into a handheld pioneer. A must-have for every Vita-owner.

    Tekken 6 is finally here and the game is good again. The animations are brilliant, customizing is finally interesting and it’s got a lot of gameplay options. Only the Scenario mode wasn’t really necessary.

    This game has a few points that makes this game a must buy for every Final Fantasy fan. It has a lot of gameplay, well known characters, good story and a lot more.

    Rochard is a fun game, though it is hardly a surprising one. Developer Recoil Games mostly plays it safe and manages to deliver a game that is both accessible and confusing at the same time. The graphics are fine, but the real fun lays in John 'Duke Nukem' St. John's voice acting.

    It's definitely not for everyone, but Catherine is a unique and challenging game that will leave you impressed and wanting more, even though you will likely have experienced quite a lot of frustration by the time you reach the end credits.

    This is a big game, both on- and offline. A memorable and challenging singleplayer campaign is made even greater by its engaging story, while the shifting mechanic makes for some truly unforgettable moments. Here's one purchase you won't regret!

    A fine, if short, sequel to 2009's PROTOTYPE. We had quite a lot of fun playing this game, but an anticlimactic story, weak AI and the lack of a karma system keep it from becoming a masterpiece. Maybe PROTOTYPE 3 will reach the lofty heights Radical Entertainment is aiming for.

    This is definitely a step in the direction of that old Final Fantasy feel we've come to know and love. It feels like what the original Final Fantasy XIII should have been.

    DeathSpank is a great mix of different game types. The game has RPG elements in it, but is in its base a hack and slash title full of stupid humor. If you're looking for an original PlayStation Network game with a lot of different possibilities and a long duration of gaming, then DeathSpank is a great choice.

    This game is a good port from the Wii version. The gameplay is great, the story is nice and the graphics are pretty. At some moments the gameplay is a bit slow, but besides of that a must have for Dead Space and horror fans.

    With this game you get four years of Harry Potter in Hogwarts. The game shows most of the key elements from the movies and this all in the usual LEGO style. If you like the previous LEGO games, than this one is a must buy. You can play it completely in co-op, it has quite a few hours of gameplay and the humor is once again great. Perfect for the fans, but the more experienced gamer will find this game a bit too easy.

    One of the most popular PlayStation 3 franchises now on the PlayStation Portable. It has everything from the PlayStation 3 versions in another environment. One of the better PSP games of this year.

    Who wouldn't like the powers The Darkness has to offer? Okay, maybe our priest wouldn't. The Darkness II provides even more gruesome and gory fun than its predecessor and is overall the better game. Unfortunately, the often underwhelming enemy AI and the insultingly short length of the campaign somewhat spoil the fun.

    This new echochrome game is a fantastic one. The game is full of new puzzles and most of them are pretty hard, but still nice to play. Besides that you can create your own levels and share them online.

    Even though NFL 12 doesn't exactly outclass its predecessor, It's still better than NFL 11. Improved drafting and the new collision system are fine additions to the NFL legacy, but some more changes would have been nice.

    Tiger Woods PGA Tour 11 is like the previous games once again a great game. It has a few new great features like the True Aim and Focus features. The gameplay is the same like the last part with the new options and that makes this game great. The graphics and audio are also very good and the Ryder Cup is a great new tournament.

    Yakuza 4 has one hell of a story and the gameplay is better than before. You can also play with four characters instead of one and the game did get improvements on almost every aspect. The Yakuza games are for a small group of gamers, but it's a great one.

    The Sims 3 on consoles is cool for the fans, but contains too many options so the game is confusing. The gameplay with the many different challenges is pretty fun and the new karma system can deliver hilarious situations. But the main problem is that the problems from the first part, like the pretty bad AI are still around.

    Even though it's fun to return to New Marais and battle vampires as the now extra powerful Cole McGrath, Festival of Blood feels to much like a last-minute afterthought to inFamous 2 to receive a higher score. Still, inFamous fans should not hesitate to buy this.

    Last year Pro Evolution Soccer 2010 wasn’t really good. This year Pro Evolution Soccer is back as it’s meant to be. Nice gameplay in the great Master League and a lot of other playable options. One point that’s still missing, are all of the official licenses.

    We actually find it hard to come up with any complaints about Motorstorm RC. On the contrary, we feel like we've stolen this game. An extremely low price for a visually strong and extremely addictive racing game? You won't find a better deal anywhere soon.

    This trilogy contains Tomb Raider: Legend, Tomb Raider: Underworld and Tomb Raider: Anniversary. A nice compilation of three pretty good Tomb Raider games in HD and of course with Trophies. If you missed those games, this trilogy is a perfect solution to play the three games.

    This game follows the story of the movie, but it also has another part that will deliver the younger players a lot of fun. You can play in a world where you can manage your own village, build things and complete simple objectives. A pretty nice game that is a lot better than most of the games in this genre!
