    Are you fond of hockey and do you want to play a match once in a while? Then NHL 2K10 is a good title for you. But if you're looking for a more serious game, EA's NHL 10 will be a better choice.

    A Dontnod game without signature episodes and supernatural powers, but with an intriguing murder-mystery and tensions between all involved as protagonist Sam returns to his hometown to visit the funeral of his best friend - and his partner, Sam's ex-girlfriend. Dontnod introduces some interesting new concepts like the mind palace, but they are not fleshed out enough to be memorable.

    Developer Milestone has managed to create a nice rally game that somehow disappoints in the visual department. Race fans should buy this game, but only when it has been lowered in price.

    Rack n Ruin combines a funny anti-hero with great graphics but lacks a great gameplay.

    The second Transformers game contains a little more oil, but still doesn't quite cut it. The graphics and the sound are okay, but the game doesn't give the right signals. Because of the extras Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen is interesting for the fans, but for everyone else there's not much to look at here.

    Are you looking for a tactical game on the Wii, Pikmin is a fun title you should consider buying. Unfortunately it only has a short story. If you never played the GameCube version, but it always looked interesting to you, it is worth the money. Trust me!

    Heroes Over Europe has become a decent flight game. But you should consider Il-2 Sturmovik: Birds of Prey, if you’re looking for more serious simulation flight action.

    If you like Mario Kart and if you want to drive another tournament, you can put Madagascar Kartz in your console. The game is a decent rip-off but nothing more than that.

    Ubisoft shows us how to score with a title like Academy of Champions: Football. The game hasn't got a great story mode, but offers enough fun meant for arcade gamers and children.

    G-Force is nice, but not for serious gamers. However, the game deserves a six, because there's a lot of action, which makes it a little more fun to play, but it's still made for children.

    When you're a hack 'n slash freak that doesn't get enough of button mashing, you will have a lot of fun playing X-Blades. The graphics are nice but the sound isn't. The gameplay is a little boring but when you're a fan, it will definitely not bother you. When you're not a fan, you should leave this game alone.

    Maybe for South Park fans this is an interesting title. But be smart to start immediately with the multiplayer mode. Because if you choose to play on your own, the game will soon be pretty boring. For those people who are not South Park fans and are seeking for a Tower Defense game; look on the web, there are free and better versions available.

    Chop Till You Drop is not too bad, but if you have an Xbox 360 Dead Rising is a much better purchase. The Wii version comes short on certain aspects and is therefore not worth the full price.

    Hustle Kings is a nice game, but nothing more than that. You can have a great time by playing this game, but of course it's much more fun to play pool for real.

    MySims SkyHeroes is made especially for children and they'll love the gameplay. This game is definitely not for you if you're not a child and enjoy a little more action.

    Cut the Rope obviously is a very big success on mobile devices. It is a good thing that not much about the original gameplay has changed for this 3DS-version, but unfortunately there is no interesting new (3DS-) content with this download. Only a very big 3D Om-Nom on your top screen, that we find a bit meh-meh.

    While the complete edition is a fun blast from the past Scott Pilgrim vs The World The Game it is just that. It's a game from a different time that has some trouble keeping up with the new games in town. The addition of an online co-op is nice though.

    Hatsune Miku Project DIVA 2nd is a fun game if you like Hatsune Miku of the anime genre overall. If you are not familiar with Miku of not a anime fan, then the game doesn't really do anything other than recycle existing parts of rhythm games.

    Rainbow Six Extraction more or less feels like a big expansion, rather than a full game. There simply isn't enough variety in the gameplay, while the scale feels way too small as well. The inclusion of cooperative play softens the blow a little, and the shooting is a lot of fun. With that being said, there is just barely enough here to justify the price tag.

    The Sims 25th Birthday Bundle delivers a nostalgic experience with the original games, offering classic gameplay and charm. However, its technical limitations make it better suited for long-time fans rather than newcomers.

    Little Deviants has become the Wii Play of the PlayStation Vita; quite boring, not challenging and just not that fun to play. The multiplayer however can be great at times. But that's all there's to it.

    Men of War: Assault Squad 2 turned out to be a very realistic game with lots of content. It's just that the technical flaws ruin the experience.

    While the story is still its strongest selling point, The game doesn't quite feel at home on the Switch five years after it's original release. With framedrops, technical limitations and game breaking bugs, this is the least polished version available.
