    Maybe it could find its place on phones and tablets, but having so many great games on PC we can't find a reason why you should play this.

    A disappointment. With mediocre graphics and limited gameplay, it has an interesting yet a bit commonplace story, although in fact the game results are enjoyable despite its flaws.
    • 49 Metascore
    • 62 Critic Score
    We can't ignore it feels like a yet to be finished game, with some good ideas but not fully exploited. In fact, perhaps it has been hurried up to be ready for the cinema premiere, and this would have harmed the development. What a shame. Maybe next time.

    An extinct approach to first-person shooters, like a game locked into a time capsule that has been relased now (which is almost what happened). There are indeed many better shooters out there, but very few as charming, although the game might disappoint some who are just looking for a FPS by today's standards.
    • 49 Metascore
    • 55 Critic Score
    We recommend this title for those out there who are fanatic of this kind of game, but it is hard to find something good about it for those who are not. Sadly, last generation graphics, and nothing worth highlighting and the main features of this game.

    The absence of a multiplayer mode is not justifiable by any means, and puzzle mode is incredibly short and unchallenging. But gameplay keeps being fun and addictive.
    • 49 Metascore
    • 55 Critic Score
    It does a few things right, but it also fails to build an engaging experience, feeling basic and repetitive. Still, if you really love the genre, it can be fun.

    It is clear than its development process hasn't been smooth. There's a lot of potential behind and, even though its issues are noticeable, if you're looking for an urban FarCry, Homefront can be interesting.

    FlingSmash is a fun game which will keep us entertained, specially if we play in company or if we love to surpass our own high scores, although it won't be liked by everyone.

    Stormrise produces an odd sensation: the ideas it proposes are very good for the most part, and its approach could have caused a new milestone in the genre, and set the way for the others to follow, taking advantage of its control. But the execution hasn't resulted so convincing.
    • 48 Metascore

    If your looking for a shooter to play with friends, this might be an option (although there are many better ones), but other than that, you won't find anything particularly interesting here.

    AWAY has a fantastic premise, but unfortunately its poor execution and and the technical issues make it hard to recommend.

    Sonic Adventure reaparition has contradictory results. It is a charming game we all remember fondly, but the formula has aged badly.
    • 48 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    This is a very interesting and original mix of FPS and RTS, that works quite well both alone or with up to four players.
    • 48 Metascore
    • 75 Critic Score
    A short and somewhat limited game, that doesn't include a multiplayer mode which would fit very well, but also a very entertainment experience that will please those looking for an arcade driving game.

    The first episode of Deep Black does some things well, but not everything. It has easy to understand gameplay mechanics and a great use of water, but also some flaws in design which might upset some players.

    Devil’s Hunt doesn’t try to do anything new, but we’ve had a great time with it. It’s like a game that has been trapped in time, and maybe that’s the reason why we’ve enjoyed it –if you’re looking for something original or more unique, you won’t find it here.
    • 47 Metascore
    • 58 Critic Score
    This is a mediocre game who tries to make the most of the movie premiere and sell as much copies as possible.
    • 47 Metascore

    It's really hard to review this kind of games. They are well adapted, but there's little addition compared to the original versions. Only recommended for nostalgic gamers.
    • 47 Metascore
    • 62 Critic Score
    This is a decent game which lacks some improvements, specially more game modes and multiplayer options.
    • 47 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Yet another game with great ideas and a not-so-great execution. If you’re looking for a stealth-based horror experience it’s an option, but definitely not the best one out there.
    • 47 Metascore
    • 40 Critic Score
    It could have been a decent game, despite de limitations of the property, but it ultimately results in something worse than the first game, which doesn't improve in what the original lacked.

    Frogger Returns doesn't fulfill expectations. And it is not that the formula has aged badly, because the original is as fun as ever.
    • 47 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Although the game has many and evident flaws, especially in its visuals, and it is not revolutionary, nor it differentiates itself from the rest of action and RPG games, it indeed is engaging and makes you keep playing thanks to its freedom.
    • 47 Metascore
    • 75 Critic Score
    Decay of Logos offers an interesting idea, mixing some elements from the Souls series and even Breath of the Wild. There are some issues, mostly because of its humble budget, but we’ve enjoyed it, and we think players looking for a challenge will enjoy it too.
    • 47 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    Extinction is promising, but it gets boring way too soon. Behind an interesting concept there is repetitive experience that could've been so much more.
    • 47 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    This is a singular title which is not that similar to the 1985 original. Those who are looking for an HD version of Green Beret might be disappointed, but this is still a good action game with simple gameplay that blends action, adventure and stealth.
    • 47 Metascore
    • 46 Critic Score
    A failed game, whose initial idea was attractive and different, and might have become an alternative to the two dominant series. Unfourtunately, 505 Games has failed implementing it, resulting in a lackluster game with a very bad control.
    • 47 Metascore
    • 58 Critic Score
    Pretty much the same that the first episode. It does offer some new features, but also keeps the issues that we found before. The concept may attract some players, but we feel it won't keep them entertained for too long.

    • 68 Critic Score
    Terminator: Resistance doesn’t have a big budget behind it, and its shortcomings are obvious. If you’re not bothered about the license, there are many games out there that are a better option, but if you really want to play a game based on the movie, it can be interesting.
    • 47 Metascore
    • 40 Critic Score
    It has a lot of motion-detection problems, and requires a lot of space to play, but it can be enjoyable in multiplayer.
    • 47 Metascore
    • 25 Critic Score
    It feels like some kind of alpha still in development. Some of you might be able to ses a bright side of this game, but at the moment it's really hard to recommend.
    • 47 Metascore
    • 65 Critic Score
    It's a quite enjoyable game, but it doesn't do anything particularly well. If you like the concept it won't disappoint you, but don't expect anything better than its competition.

    With its vices and virtues, The Punisher No Mercy may be worthy to spend some time in multiplayer matches without much complication. Of course there are many and better alternatives in the same terrain, but it offers some fun for a lesser price.
    • 47 Metascore
    • 55 Critic Score
    The game will be too complicated for most of the people, but those willing to give it more than one chance may ultimately enjoy it.
    • 47 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    It feels like a game designed to catch some fans the series. There's some important issues, but if you get some friends to play with, it's a product you can enjoy.
    • 47 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    This is a quite weak experience, and needs to be polished and improved if it wants to become an option among so many rivals.

    Showdown is a disappointing spin-off of a very unique franchise. It has some fun moments, but it ends up being dull too soon.
    • 47 Metascore
    • 54 Critic Score
    The new adventure of the X-Men is poor and simple. Although the story looked interesting, the result is an average action game, without anything remarkable, that only hardcore X-Men fans will enjoy.
    • 47 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    Despite capturing the artistic style of Mike Mignola's comics and featuring the charisma of Hellboy, this roguelite falls short with an extremely simple combat system, lack of variety in situations, enemies, and strategic possibilities, along with a scarcity of content and somewhat clunky controls, ultimately failing to do justice to Mignola's masterpiece.
    • 47 Metascore

    As a Sonic game there's nothing positive here, but as a game, in general, it is a reasonable options for kids, particularly if they're fans of the TV series.
    • 47 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    A slighty over-average game that has some good points, like its perspective and character editor, but also lacks much more game modes and fighters, something that is unforgivable in a fighting game. Although it is not a perfect game and it is even far from being very good, this is a meritable approach to MMA sports.

    GTI Club is a fast and accessible game for everyone, which can engage for its variety and its great multiplayer mode.

    A decent cycling simulator, which fans of this sport will enjoy if they forgive some flaws and the absence of additional modes.

    • 60 Critic Score
    A recommended game for those who like One Piece, but everyone has to consider there is also a Wii version around, with almost the same content except for the Marineford game, the 3D effect and a few more features. It is not outstanding, but it has enough charm to keep us playing for hours.

    Zenith gets the Diablo concept and spices it up with a story full of humor. It feels a little bit outdated, but it's very entertaining nonetheless.

    AWAY is a enjoyable roguelite in 3D, quite charming and fun. It has some issues, like its combat, but overall it’s a good option for fans of the genre.

    It is theoretically enjoyable, but there are some issues, mostly online related, that spoil all the fun. We encourage you to give it a try, since it has a lot of entertainment to offer.

    This game has a quite solid foundation, although it’s clearly a game in progress. We believe it can be a great simulator, but at the moment it needs some work.

    Ugly Americans deserved a better game. Maybe within the same genre, but better though and executed. Gameplay-wise it may be interesting during the first minutes, but this sensations vanishes early, unveiling a repetitive and very limited videogame.
    • 45 Metascore
    • 68 Critic Score
    This is a FPS with an original mechanic, which tests our patience when solving the compromised situations we will find through the game. But some flaws in its visuals and AI prevent Sniper Ghost Warrior to become one of the leading titles of the market.

    • 60 Critic Score
    This game has some features we like from downloadable games and some others we don't. It offers simple and constant action, and a fun cooperative multiplayer, both offline and online, but it gets repetitive soon and has some desperate AI flaws.
    • 45 Metascore
    • 57 Critic Score
    It has lost a good opportunity to become one of the surprises of the year because it has good ideas in its proposal, between a movie and a game. The story is typical, but able to engage us, but its gameplay is too lackluster and repetitive.
    • 45 Metascore
    • 45 Critic Score
    Although it has some interesting ideas, but the execution isn't that good. It's may feature, the rewinding mechanic, doesn't really work as it should, and it lacks other accomplishments to make up for it.

    A decent and fun motocross game, that becomes addictive but also falls short in content, as it doesn't have any local or online multiplayer mode. Despite all of this, it is a decent game that motocycling lovers should give a chance.

    Maybe Ubisoft has hurried up to have it ready for PlayStation Move launch, and it has resulted in a below-avarage control, missing the opportunity to give players a lesson of tennis, badminton and the rest of the sports included in the game. What a pity.

    Power Rangers Samurai is not a bad game, as it may become quite addictive. The problem is the lack of ambition of the developers, which have made a fun brawler, but very limited.

    The idea of bringing back the shoot ‘em up genre was ok, but it’s extremely repetitive and boring.
    • 45 Metascore
    • 62 Critic Score
    It's a very generic shooter, which seems to be one of the games we saw at the beginning at the generation or the end of the previous one. Certainly disappointing, there's a game here with several technical issues that still manages to be moderately fun.

    Infinity Runner tries to adapt a mobile concept to new platforms, but it just doesn't work as it should. It's just a different take on a mobile game, but if you're ok with that, then it'll satisfy you.

    We were expecting more from a game with someone like Yuji Naka. The gameplay and the visuals feel outdated, and even though the game is fun, it's far from the best platformers on Nintendo consoles.

    Ideal for short and intense sessions, but has some control issues that might make it hard for certain people. It takes around 7 hours to be completed, which is ok, however we still miss some additional options to make it last a little bit longer.

    NightCry brings the old-school Clock Tower formula... and it's technology. Many people is going to struggle to deal with its outdated graphics and control, but if you manage to find its core, you'll get the original Clock Tower feeling back.

    MotoGP is one of the most popular titles in the driving panorama, however this Wii version hasn't been as lucky as the ones in PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360. This is a lackluster product which could have hit the billboards.

    There are some great ideas and some good moments in Husk, but gameplay-wise, the experience isn't that good, and sadly it isn't what you would expect. The developers have promised to listen to the feedback and improve the game, so keep an eye on it, because even if now it isn't the game we want, it could end up being it.

    The game disappoints with its lack of content and subpar combat mechanics, failing to capture the essence of the anime despite its appealing character roster. Additionally, its online-focused approach limits its longevity, making it a hard sell even for die-hard fans.
    • 44 Metascore
    • 55 Critic Score
    It would have been wise to delay the game for some months in order to create enough content, as what is included in the game is just too limited. Requiring permanent connection to make the most of the game is also a poor decision.

    A game made for hardcore cycling fans. Its gameplay might result simple for many players, but each stage of the competition is an strategy challenge, and also depends on luck. Winning is not easy, and that is something interesting that fosters us to keep playing. It has some interesting elements and improvements in comparison with the previous year version, but technically it is still poor, and has room for many enhancements.

    Considering the team behind the game, Bombshell should've been much better than this. It feels like an Early Access game, so if you really want to play it we recommend waiting a few months, as many of its flaws could be easily fixed in upcoming patches.

    If you played Octodad, you know that having bad, unresponsive controls on purpose can be funny. Surgeon Simulator tries that, but it does it in a way that makes you think the controls are broken.
