Mini Ninjas Adventures feels just as Japanse and zen as its predecessor, but with totally different controls and gameplay. It works very well with Kinect, though it might cause some pain in your right arm for hitting too much with the sword. It's a cutesy family game that will bring hours of fun, but that's all it is.- XGN

Concept wise, Splice is an interesting title to look at. It's both accessible and painfully difficult. The satisfaction you will feel if you overcome a difficult puzzle, is worth mentioning though. Such a shame it is that Splice fails to become more than a one-trick-pony. If you've seen one of the puzzles, you've basically seen them all.- XGN

Joy Ride Turbo is a game that can be fun for a few hours, but the music is a bit boring and we can say the same thing about the variety of cars. The cars feel very slow and the circuits look too much alike, so unfortunately this game is only suitable for little kids.- XGN

Duels of the Planeswalkers 2013 offers a really good entry for players who are new with Magic the Gathering. Even though new players will enjoy this title, the more experienced players will also get a lot of fun out of Magic 2013. Overall It's a very addictive game and offers enough fresh content for the experienced Magic player.- XGN

The Amazing Spider-Man isn't the best superhero game out there, but it sure is entertaining. Web-slinging through Manhattan is really fun. The main story however is less impressive.- XGN

We don't see to many space shooters anymore these days. Unfortunately, SOL: Exodus is a bit of a disappointment. The AI isn't great and there aren't many challenging moments. It's a cheap little game though that will keep you entertained for a little while.- XGN

Thanks to Resonance we got excited for a genre that is long gone. This point and click game offers enough challenging puzzles and an intriguing story. Too bad it's a one time deal. After that you know everything there is to know about Resonance.- XGN

Rainbow Moon offers a lot of content for a small price. It contains great retro-graphics and a pleasant soundtrack. Unfortunately, a lot of your time will be spend on grinding and that, combined with dull fights, makes for an average game.- XGN

Mutant Mudds has become a fun little game that actually makes some good use of the 3D possibilities of the 3DS. The style is great, the gameplay is challenging but the levels can get pretty repetitive after a while.- XGN

Dawnguard is the ideal add-on for those who still haven't satisfied their need for Skyrim. Those who seek innovation, will be disappointed however. Dawnguard is simply more of the same, plus a clumsy Vampire Lord transformation.- XGN

Offspring Fling! feels like a good old 2D platform game. With more than a hundred levels to keep you puzzling for hours, Offspring Fling! is a deep game that will keep you entertained for hours. And that's exactly what we want from a platform game.- XGN

Episode 2 is in every way just as good as the pilot episode. Once again you can enjoy gruesome action and a zombie filled campaign.- XGN

Spec Ops: The Line has a great story and manages to show a gruesome, yet beautifully destroyed Dubai. It's just a shame that the moving sand is all scripted and that the campaign doesn't last for more than 6 hours.- XGN

Heroes of Ruin is a fun dungeon crawler with tons of loot to collect and more than enough possibilities to connect with other players. The game is a bit standard though, failing to stand out from the croud.- XGN

You can say a lot about Steel Battalion: Heavy Armor but it all comes down to one thing: It just doesn't work.- XGN

Bang Bang Racing gives the player a real arcade feeling. Unfortunately the game lacks creativity. There isn't a whole lot of content and after a short time you have seen the same circuits enough to get bored of them. With a camera angle that doesn't work properly you can say that Bang Bang Racing has failed to impress.- XGN

One of the biggest problems LEGO Batman 2 has on the console, becomes a bigger problem on Vita. There are too little levels to play and there isn't an open world like on the consoles. Its a shame that a game with so many possibilities turns out to be so small and simple.- XGN

Though LEGO Batman 2: DC Super Heroes does not have many levels in its storymode, the large open world that is Gotham City is a very pleasant feature. There are tons of golden bricks to collect, red bricks to buy and villains to search for. And it is just as nice to go on a discovery trip in the open world as it is to play the levels and collect everything to get to that 100% completion mark.- XGN

Babel Rising is a very fun game, but it should have stayed on smartphones and tablets. It's a nice game to play for about a quarter, but soon it gets boring. You have to push certain buttons repeatedly and the gameplay doesn't really change throughout the game. It's a shame the developer didn't take more advantage of the Biblical story this game is based on, because it could use a storyline.- XGN

The Ratchet & Clank Trilogy is just fun. It reminds you of a time when Ratchet & Clank were at the top of their game. Please, Insomniac Studios, do something with it and bring a total new Ratchet & Clank for us.- XGN

Metal Gear Solid: HD Collection is with its low retail price a must have for new and experienced players. Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty and Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater are some of the best entries in the franchise. It's only a shame Peace Walker is absent in this collection.- XGN

Krater could have been a wonderful game but messes up in the gameplay department. The gameplay tends to get repetitive and the story isn't that great. Krater has turned out to be a pretty weak start of a franchise.- XGN

This Madagascar game is, just as it's predecessors, very adorable. The minigame kind of gameplay is connected through the story of the movie and there's enough variation to keep it interesting. It does get a bit repetitive after one town, and walking goes very slowly, but this game is perfect to play with a child.- XGN

Iron Front really has a realistic atmosphere, there's a lot of different modes to choose from and the German/Russian voices are done well. The game is not really playable though, because it crashes a lot. Cutscenes cannot be skipped and there are some important explanations missing.- XGN

Gods & Kings is a very complete expansion pack. The added espionage and the new and improved religion system make this game a lot better. Civilization V has become a lot deeper with this DLC and almost all of the original problems have been fixed.- XGN

With Lollipop Chainsaw, Suda 51 has once again found a great mix between fun, varied gameplay and tons of humor. The action might not really stand out and the game has its issues, but it's a great, fun ride.- XGN

Harley Quinn's Revenge offers more of the same and that is what we wanted after the original single-player story was over. On the other hand, there is nothing that will keep you coming back after you finish the short story. Harley Quinn's Revenge is a good reason to boot up Arkham City once more, but keep your expectations on the low.- XGN

Gravity Rush offers an interesting concept and a great audiovisual style, capable of creating an instant classic. Unfortunately fighting can be frustrating and the ending can be unclear, keeping this game from achieving said status.- XGN

Dead Hungry Diner is a pretty good indie game, despite the very simple main concept. In fifty levels you won't get bored one single time. With just an endless amount of minor additions that you get while playing through te game, Dead Hungry Diner strikes the right chord.- XGN

The balance in Gratuitous Tank Battles is spot on and the A.I. is very good. It's possible to create your own maps, which is always a good thing. It's just a shame that there isn't a multiplayer mode to test your skills against others.- XGN
