    Aviation Empire is an addictive simulation game. Without you realising it, you will have spent hours and hours on airfields. The controls on the mobile don’t use their full potential, which is a shame for a good game.

    By using the four elements you have to transit from one level to the other. This makes the game quite challenging, but also a bit repetitive. The beautiful soundtrack of the game saves the day.

    This game is repetitive, with boring level design and a camera which doesn’t want to work. Deadpool is a great character with a lot charisma and humour, but he tries too hard to be really funny.

    Rogue Legacy has a fresh concept with a lot of humour. The idea of playing with a different character in every dungeon is something that speaks to us. Despite having an addicting upgrading system, the game works better with a controller.

    There is a lot of variation in the levels in Mighty Switch Force 2, but the game is still too short. The gameplay, however, is still brilliant and the 3D style really adds something to the game.

    A great game with such a simple concept. It does what few games are able to do: it’s easy to learn, but it’s hard to master. The only thing that isn’t good is that you can’t view the levels before you begin.

    With an infinite amount of levels, Cloudberry Kingdom delivers enough content for a lifetime. Visually it isn’t the greatest game and it can get quite repetitive, but with a split screen co-op it’s fun to play with friends on the couch.

    Clash in the Clouds is a fun additive for the original game, but it’s not what Bioshock fans had hoped for. The collectors’ items in the museum are a good idea and it’s fun to look around, but this is not the DLC we were expecting.

    In the mind of a child this a fantastic game. The nostalgia factor is there and it gives us this warm and fuzzy feeling back to the old days. Besides that, it has a great style with fantastic music and it’s a great mini-game. Unfortunately, it’s only fun for short moments.

    With beautiful cartoony graphics this game is a must-have for mobiles and tablets. It has an original concept, is really funny and it’s only a few euros. All the levels are different, a fantastic achievement by developer Rovio.

    The only great thing about this game is the offline and co-op mode. Besides that it kind of sucks. The graphics are utterly disgraceful and the sound of the game is just substandard. This game isn’t good enough to survive on the current games market.

    The latest game in the Killzone franchise shows that a FPS game is welcome on the PlayStation Vita. The controls are magnificent and the graphics are beautiful for a Vita game. However, there’s nothing better than the Killzone games on the consoles.

    This game is extremely comprehensive in its content. There were great expectations for this new game in the Total War series and developer The Creative Assembly knew that quite well. With enormous battles the game is replayable over and over again.

    The new Origins map is the most fun we’ve had in a zombies map in a long time. The multiplayer maps are fun and addicting, but the DLC isn’t ground-breaking in any way.

    Just skip this edition. The commentators are literally ten year old and haven’t changed in a such a long time. It seems Pro Cycling Manager 2013 was just assembled from the 2012 edition. No changes whatsoever, even though it welcomes newcomers okay.

    Neverwinter is a disappointing MMO. There isn’t a lot of freedom for players to roam and it doesn’t re-imagine itself in the open world genre. For a free-to-play game it offers too little.

    Making your own games is quite fun, but you don’t get a lot of feedback as a developer. Despite its old-school look it is a good game. However, if it looked better it would be more attractive as a game.

    Even though the concept of this game is pretty original, Freefall Racers is not a game you will play for very long. It is very hard to get a power-up and nearly impossible to use one. These flying squirrels do not look very good, so you really do not feel the need to unlock all of them. And then what's left?

    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.

    The brushed up version of this classic looks really nice, but doesn't offer much challenge. The controls feel a bit slow and it's not a really long game either. Still, you'll enjoy the game a lot while it lasts.

    This is a short game wherein you explore depths to dig deeper and deeper. It's definitely the best title to download from the eShop right now.

    Cloudberry Kingdom is a fun and crazy game that lets you curse for days. Despite its simple graphical style and concept, the game manages to keep you interested for hours in both the campaign and the free play. Customize your character, give your friends a call and go on an adventure together. Dying is no fun, but seeing your friends suffer while gaming is an absolute joy.

    Even though the Ultimate Edition of Castlevania: Lords of Shadow doesn't provide many new features for the fan, it's downright impossible to deny the PC version is very much superior to the console counterparts. The doubled framerate, along with highly improved graphics and two DLC packs, are good enough to conclude Mercury Steams Castlevania game still provides a great gaming experience after three years.

    Blizzard finally makes its console re-introduction, and an amazing one it is. Diablo III is addictive as always and playing with friends like couch potato's is just plain awesome. Even if you are a singleplayer gamer and you have little interest; don't wait, Diablo III is worth the money.

    Shelter wants you to feel compassion for your badger cubs but it doesn't give you a lot to work with. Because of the short duration, dull color scheme and simple gameplay you never get the real feeling of bonding with your little ones.

    This is a nice beat 'em up title with four player co-op support, but it isn't really special. Most frustrating is the bad save system, like it was 20 years ago.

    How can such a bad game be part of the Summer of Arcade? Those games need to be special. This Turtles game is definitely not.

    This tower defense game is an addictive one. The HD-graphics are nice, but may not really be necessary in this cartoony style. The tutorial is very clear, the powerups are very simpel but work out great and Pixeljunk Monsters Ultimate HD is in one word a very worthwhile download on the PS Vita.

    Suda51 managed to deliver a weird game again. The game may be weird and flawed here and there, but also unique in its style and incredibly entertaining.

    Another amazing game in the Rayman universe. The game offers fun for all and a lot of variation. The style looks great and the game suffers from almost no flaws.
