    X-Men Destiny is a very boring game. The gameplay is nothing special, the graphics are just not good and we haven't even begun talking about all of the glitches. It's great however that you can make a lot of choices while playing the storyline, but it's too little too late.

    A franchise as big as A Song of Ice and Fire deserves a big and popular game. Instead, Genesis is a not so interesting strategy game with a very slow gameplay. The fights aren't impressive and you can't even save during a mission. The multiplayer is one of the only good parts, making Genesis only interesting for people who want to know more about the backstory of 'A Song of Ice and Fire'.

    Burnout Crash is fun as a mini-game, but not as a full arcade game. Its repetitive nature and unimpressive visuals will bore you and turn Crash into a barely interesting one trick pony.

    RAGE is an ambitious game that brings you a destroyed open world you want to keep coming back to. It's a shame this game suffers from occasional unloaded textures and a longer single player adventure would have been nice. The sheer amount of fun you will find in RAGE however, make this game a must buy for fans of the better shooter and role-playing games.

    The amount of content you'll get in Mercury Hg for only 400 Microsoft Points, is very good. The puzzles are pretty fun but the soundtrack ruins most of the gameplay experience.

    The Decimation Pack for Crysis 2 has the exact same problem the Retaliation Pack had namely, there is nobody online. That should be reason enough to just pass on these extra maps.

    Ace Combat Assault Horizon is a really fun game. The dogfights, the really cool online mode and the helicopters are great additions, make this a need to buy game for every aspiring pilot.

    TrackMania 2: Canyon does everything you can expect of an arcade race game and much more. It's easy for starters and still offers a big enough challenge for the more experienced players. The editor is easy to use and gives players the chance to show off their coolest creations.

    Dark Souls is one of the most difficult games of the year and adds a lot of crazy enemies and surroundings. The co-op could have been done better but that shouldn't stop you from engaging in this sixty hour long adventure.

    NHL 12 excels in many aspects and is filled with a lot of content. Great for hockey fans, despite the few disappointing updates to the series.

    Not the average shooter, not the average game – Child of Eden is unique and great. Unfortunately this game is way too short, but the time you play is absolutely fantastic. Be sure to buy it when the price drops.

    We Dance is an awful dance game. Simply everything it tries to do, fails miserably. Don't buy this rubbish.

    Mystery Case Files: The Malgrave Incident brings you hours of puzzling. The puzzles are challenging and are complimented by atmospheric images and sounds. The Malgrave Incident is one of this years better puzzling games.

    Lonesome Road delivers on every level but creates more questions than it answers. For the fan, Lonesome Road offers a nice story line that will last for up to eight hours. It's just too linear, making it less enjoyable then some of the other downloadable content that's available for New Vegas.

    More than a decade after its original release, Radiant Silvergun can still be considered a great classic. Its incredibly solid gameplay en depth create an unmatched experience. Casual and younger gamers should watch out though, since the game is just as hard as back in the day and can demand some serious grinding.

    Despite the low price of this downloadable content, it isn't really worth its money. Yes, the DLC contains new enemies and weapons but they aren't special at all.

    Nuclear Dawn combines two great genres and is simply a good game. Nuclear Dawn provides the 'missing link' between FPS and RTS gamers which hasn't been seen in a long time. If you're looking for a good shooter and if you are prepared to use your brains, then this just might be the right game for you.

    PES 12 is a great soccer game that shouldn't be compared to FIFA 12. PES 2012 is different and is a lot better than other recent games in the franchise.

    The Gunstringer is a short game but it packs a lot of power. The gameplay is simply great, with the odd movement registration failure in between, and takes you on an adventure through a very weird and at time hilarious version of the Wild West. You'll be sure to play this game more than once, considering the tons of unlockables and extra features.

    Sengoku is a unique strategy game that focuses more on family trees and on politics than on actual warfare. As for most strategy games published by Paradox Interactive, Sengoku is meant for the hardcore strategist and isn't very accessible for mainstream gamers.
