    Fallout: New Vegas
    The fact that the many issues with glitches and bugs weren't ironed out of this release would be unforgivable if the core game wasn't so tirelessly compulsive and complex. As it is, we have to warn our readers that there are some serious problems here. Your enjoyment of the game will largely depend on how much you're willing to forgive the issues.

    Star Hammer Tactics
    The simplicity of Star Hammer works both in its favour and against it. It is a very easy game to pick up and will appeal to players, like myself, who have little experience or interest in the genre but strategy fans may well be put off by how basic the title is.

    Flying Hamster
    I think the biggest compliment I can give The Flying Hamster is that I that I forgot I was playing a mini. Compared to other minis it is rather expensive at £5.99, but there again compared to other minis it's well designed and perfectly polished.

    Pro Evolution Soccer 2011
    There are still issues with animations, ball physics and AI but nothing that isn't easily forgiven as a quirk of the game. There is one week between the release dates of FIFA and Pro Evo and while it's not yet clear who will be touring the city in an open topped bus, at last PES has earned its place in the final.

    Medal of Honor
    There's a solid single player here with some stunning set pieces and the clever Tier 1 mode will no doubt see some serious competition down the line. However, the real star appears to be the multiplayer mode, which despite limited playtesting looks to offer an entirely fresh portion of the game.

    Alien Breed: Impact
    The game is good; fans of tense, methodical dual stick shooters will probably really enjoy it. It's just a shame that the wider-reaching problems weren't addressed.

    Dead Rising 2
    This game wears its heart on its sleeve in terms of what it's all about and is entirely unapologetic in the pursuit of base humour and over the top violence. If you can live with the over-keen loading screens and the infuriating lack of sense from the survivors you attempt to rescue then you should enjoy it for many hours.

    Lara Croft and the Guardian of Light
    Lara Croft and the Guardian of Light is a tough one to score. Whilst it does little wrong, it also fails to raise pulses. What the player is left with is a very solid game, with strong puzzle and combat elements that is well worth a look.

    FIFA Soccer 11
    There is a lot to like about FIFA 11 and fans of the series will no doubt fawn over the multitude of minor improvements. It would be dishonest to ignore the, mostly minor, flaws that are definitely present though. Not that those flaws will spoil many people's enjoyment of the game, they just give the franchise room to improve next year.

    F1 2010
    If you're looking for a racing game that will grow with you over the coming months, F1 2010 is that game. It's not perfect, but it does more than enough right to make it a non-brainer for most – utterly brilliant.

    Tumble
    Tumble's prescence at the Move launch shouldn't be underestimated – it's a very clever game with some really impressive ideas and a main mechanic that sets the game apart from the rest of the line-up.

    Worms 2: Armageddon
    Worms 2: Armageddon is basically the same Worms game that you've been playing for years, with tons of content thrown into the mix.

    My Aquarium
    There is nothing wrong with My Aquarium per se. It does what it's supposed to do. It's just pretty tedious.

    Space Invaders Infinity Gene
    Not just the best re-creation of Space Invaders I have played, it is also one of my favourite downloadable titles of 2010. This is an absolute no-brainer recommendation to anyone who played the game or its clones in the '80s, and for anyone who hasn't played it, you will enjoy a very quirky and unusual top-down shooter.

    Sports Champions
    It's priced well (at around £25), offers lots of gameplay and a couple of real gems.

    Start the Party!
    It's not going to change the world and the fact that it's one player at once is a real shame, but it's highly likely to get the grandparents giggling like kids, and, to be honest, when you're buying a game like Start The Party, that's all you can ask for.

    Spider-Man: Shattered Dimensions
    Unfortunately, that narrative is never properly realised and the game's control issues and repetitive elements make some sections infuriating.

    UFC Undisputed 2010
    Whilst you are probably going to have to install it to your memory card if you want the best experience and there are a few flaws, such as the questionable crowd sounds, if you're a fan of the UFC games this is pretty much made for you.

    NHL 11
    NHL 11 is an absolutely fantastic game that will provide hockey fans with literally hundreds of hours worth of gameplay. If hockey is your thing then pick this up, if it's not but you want something different then I highly recommend trying it.

    EyePet: Move Edition
    If you're fond of Eyepet and can look past the niggles, interacting with your chosen furball has gotten a whole lot easier and more intuitive – and whilst it's not going to hold your attention for too long, it's well worth the upgrade for fans.

    Coconut Dodge
    This game grows on you in a curious way and winds up with you in furious determination to get 'just one level further this time'.

    Valkyria Chronicles II
    It does take a while for the action to really heat up and draw in the player but if you stick with it you'll find 50 plus hours of fun and a truly original gaming experience.

    Mafia II
    Everything about Mafia II is average. From the tepid driving controls and the standard cover mechanism to the staid narrative which could still have been enjoyable, had they put a little more thought into it. This game is not terrible but it is some way from being good.

    Arcade Air Hockey & Bowling
    But with so many minis titles out there with an ever-increasing level of quality, it's hard to recommend this title over others already available.

    Top Gun
    The game didn't even make me want to quote Top Gun once in this review. It's just not good, even if you feel the need… the need for speed.

    Madden NFL 11
    The new features make the game playable by a much wider audience but all the tools are there for those of you who want to tune your experience and take minute control over your team.

    Arctic Adventures: Polar's Puzzles
    Compared to the similar block-sliding puzzler D-Cube Planet this is an example of just how good some minis are and how minis games are developing. The polished presentation makes this one of the best-looking, sounding and playing minis I have yet tried.

    Gravity Crash Portable
    For fans of the PlayStation 3 version of Gravity Crash this is more of the same, slightly refined. That's not a bad thing though, the game is perfectly suited to short periods of play and the PSP's portability makes it an ideal fit.
    • 79 Metascore

    DeathSpank
    Fifteen years ago DeathSpank would not only have been regarded as an accomplished and polished retail game, it would likely have been viewed as a leader in its field. It's an indication of just how comprehensive and refined DeathSpank is as a title.
    • 57 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Landit Bandit
    Landit Bandit is quite short and it is limited to a few basic mechanics used to accomplish very similar tasks. The mechanics are solid enough to make it a taxing and entertaining distraction but you might be left wishing there was a little more substance and a bit more polish.
