    A pure act of love. This is what Ni No Kuni: Wrath of the White Which is for both Studio Ghibli lovers and gamers who want to embrace again that old fashioned, classic spirit from the RPG genre of 16 and 32 Bit generations. The makers of Spirited Away and the creators of Dragon Quest VIII -Level 5- join forces in a visually constant Tour de Force that contains one of the best scores ever written for a videogame and a battle system that mixes turn-based with real time action. One true jewel of the PlayStation 3 library.

    Luigi's Mansion 2 is a great game that has solid gameplay with well-designed levels. Looks good, plays better and improves so many elements of its predecessor.

    BattleBlock Theater is like an HD version of the best Saturday-morning cartoon you can remember: hilarious, amazing in terms of visuals and also has one of the great co-op modes we've seen on Xbox Live Arcade. In short: Rayman Legends on acid, 'indie style'.

    Awakening is from far the best Fire Emblem experience to be found on a handheld. It's the most beautiful and yet accessible strategic game we've seen lately, and with a bunch of new additions to its gameplay mechanics it's difficult no to fall to its charms.

    Persona 4: Arena is one of the best fighting games in this generation. Great, original and depth combat mechanics, good offline modes and solid netcode for another hit by Atlus and Arc System Works. And gorgeous visuals.

    One of the best 2D platform games in the last years. Varied game, full of possibilities and long. Donkey Kong Country Returns has a polished gameplay and brilliant artistic designs in the return for the most famous virtual monkey, now in a great hand-held version.

    A superb offering, a metaphysical discussion masterfully disguised as an excellently designed puzzle game. A game that you will remember.

    Animal Crossing: New Leaf is not a game, it's an experience. Rule your own village as a major and share your experience with friends online. This is the game that you will be playing for the next years in your 3DS.

    Dungeons & Dragons, a mythical name for fans of the classic pencil and paper RPG. Tower of Doom and Shadow Over Mystara, two cult videogames. Dungeons & Dragons: Chronicles of Mystara, the opportunity that we had waited for twenty years. The download of this game is simply inevitable.

    Revengeance is a great hack and slash: Frantic, fun and fast running at 60 fps. It's a good mix of Metal Gear's universe and Platinum Style, but Raiden fails with stealth situations.

    Tomb Raider is a wonderful adventure which reaches the heights of Uncharted. Lara Croft returns in an exciting and relatively open game, with all genres very well-realized. Temples, tombs and archeology with intense action, puzzles and jumps. Just what we wanted.

    Pit is back in his best shape. Kid Icarus Uprising is one of the most interesting games for Nintendo 3DS in 2012. Tons of content and unlockables, hours of gameplay, a true innovative difficulty system and an interesting use of 3D. Masahiro Sakurai's seal of quality.

    Fall of Samurai does what an expansion should do, take a good base and build something related but different about it. The sea warfare doesn't work as well as it could, but overall it's a great experience and a must for any Total war fan.

    A brilliant update to the original game. The additions improve the core values of Orcs Must Die! and makes it a bigger and better game. It has its flaws, like a poor design of some maps, but the co-op, the improved character developement and the Endless mode are fantastic improvements.

    Death faces a great trip full of jumps, puzzles and combat. Darksiders II is much better than the first game, with variety and enormity until more than 25 hours. A classic adventure made with precious graphics.

    Exactly the same great game. Only The Argul's Tomb and new possibilities with the GamePad screen make the Wii U version the most complete and recommended, but identical to the others. The best adventure game of 2012.

    Far Cry 3 is perhaps one of the best first-person sandboxes. Big, diverse, beautiful and fun. Dementia has the same importance as weapons, with many parts of RPG and stealth shooter. Multiplayer modes, great plot and good graphics performance.

    This expansion adds such a massive amount of content to Rift that everyone interested in MMOs should give it a go. It´s classic in a way, but the content is top notch and has a lot of useful features like houses.

    An interesting port for the Wii U, despite the unstable frame rate and minor flaws. Using the Wii U GamePad you can experience new ways of fighting against the Reapers. The game includes some interesting DLCs content, but not all of them. Mass Effect 3 Special Edition works fine if you didn't play the original game.

    Great expansion with interesting touches, a solid and entertaining campaign and very good additions to the interface and multiplayer aspects around its e-sport element. It's a bit expensive for new players, though, as it requires Wings of Liberty.

    Gaijin Games shows how much they have learned about balancing the learning curve and the difficulty of the game to make a demanding but fair game. Superb use of sound and a nice amount of nicely designed levels compose a great package.

    Hotline Miami is a gift for those who are willing to enjoy the old-arcade essence of the 8 and 16 bits era. Furthermore, the gameplay mechanics are superb and the strong 80ish atmosphere adds to a really twisted travel.

    The new Nintendo Wii U NBA 2K13 is very similar to the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 versions. The most remarkable aspect in Spain is the voice of Antoni Daimiel and his extraordinary comments.

    Bloodier than ever, the god of Sony's IPs come back with a title than focuses on the beginning of the tragedy. Reluctant to remember what happened, Kratos only wants to break the pact he made once with Ares. God of War: Ascension bring us a visual spectacle that pushes PlayStation 3 to its limits, carrying new elements for the gameplay and even a Multiplayer mode that helps to extend the life of this spartan odyssey. A great Good-bye to the character until the Next Generation.

    Virtue's Last Reward delivers a great amount of fun. With improved gameplay mechanics and +30h of lifespan, you won't find anything better than Chunsoft's last effort.
