Iron Man 2 is a decent action game, with nice controls and hundred of enemies to eliminate. Graphically, the armor of Iron Man is well done and the frame rate is fluid and stable, but the stages are poor and lack in detail. Fans of the superhero will probably appreciate.

Too derivative from previous games, especially the Nintendo DS ones, and too much multiplayer oriented.

Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon Predator is a game with some good potential that comes partially limited from some structural defects. The missions don't have varied enough objectives, the artificial intelligence of the enemies is insufficient and the level of difficulty is sometimes frustrating. But fans of tactical shooters will find some enjoyment out of the game, such as the multiplayer mode. Ultimately it's not a bad game but not a masterpiece either.

A Helicopter game for iPhone with the GTA's gameplay. The game is quite funny but unfortunately the controls are not very good.

Despite a good premise, The Blocks Cometh doesn't engage its audience. To be clear, it's not a bad game, and the graphics are pretty nice, likewise the good chiptune music. But unfortunately the contents are poor and the lack of variety is clear. Besides few unlockable characters and some achievements, the player doesn't have many reasons to keep the game on his iPhone for long.

Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell 3D is a good handheld conversion of the classic Chaos Theory: unfortunately, the multiplayer, online or not, is nowhere to be seen, and the 3D effect, albeit good, doesn't seem to make up for the loss. It's a rather good single player launch title, but you'd want to concentrate on more complete titles.

Hyperdimension Neptunia is a game dedicated to an audience of fans of Anime and RPGs. It is a classic dungeon crawling JRPG with a intresting battle system, a pretty and fun shallow story, and also a poor graphic. If you are a fan of this genre, or just want something different and want to play a fun humorous game, this game is definitely recommended.

Scribblenauts Remix is fresh, original and it's got a huge potential, but it fails to deliver. You can create almost everything and that's funny, but the puzzles are often obscure or dull and there's nothing else to keep you entertained.

From the homonymous comic, an action platform with some variety. Combat system is slightly redundant and gameplay is frustrating in advanced levels.

It's a game with an original and weird premise, entertaining for a little while but filled with many small issues that ultimately ruin the whole experience.

Pangolin is simple, charming and fun at first, but the experience becomes very boring very fast.

Harry Potter and the Half Blooded Prince is what you might expect from an average tie-in, if not a little bit less: it's aimed only at harcore fans, and yet it could disappoint because of the shallowness of the plot and the poor cutscenes.

The old gameplay is still the same. If you aren't afraid of that, or if you're a new fan of the series, you could have fun with this Harvest Moon episode. Even if there are tons of loading times and some old gen graphics.

This version of Trivial Pursuit turns out to be something slightly different from the classic we all got to know through the years, mainly due to the multiple answers structure. The main drawbacks are the poor graphics, no online gameplay and, mainly, the retail price, that we expected to be lower.

Even with some nice ideas and the same crazy and funny atmosphere of the WarioWare series, Snapped feels nothing more than a tech demo that shows what DSi can and cannot do.

This is a game that surely captures some of the hot spots which made the movie a cult one. Problems arise when you think about the not so satisfying combat system, the repetitive puzzles and the less than average graphics. If you are a real Saw fan you may actually consider a purchase.

The same game we played one year ago, with some bonus contents and a lack of polishing that makes this version the worst one.

Rooms The Main Building it's a nice puzzle game that won't turn the genre upside-down. But if you like this kind of games, it's a pleasant addiction to the DS library.

With so many good twin-stick shooters on the App Store, Revolt just can't stand out. The main problem is about the bad level design, with always the same locations and a repetitive single-player mode. The equipment is fully upgradeable, but, even if it has some golden times, the game will bore you really soon. Finally, different levels of difficulty and unlockable achievements are not enough to replay the game a second time.

Well-designed puzzles mixed with a never seen combat difficulty: if all you want to do is play more DeathSpank action, then this will certainly do the job.

Superman is a decent action game, designed around the abilities of the popular DC superhero. You can fly, shoot a laser beam through your eyes, lift a car and throw it to the space and everything else Superman can do, but you also have to deal with some unresponsive controls.

On the one hand, Razor: Salvation is packed with some nice, detailed graphics and an interesting power-up system; on the other hand, switching between the weapons is a slow and cumbersome experience, and the gameplay itself is not as good as we expected.

It's hard to classify Test Drive: Ferrari Racing Legends. Is it an arcade racer? Definitely not, since most of the challenges are really hard to complete. Is it a simulation? Not even: too few tuning options and no introduction to the events. The game is packed with plenty of cars and tracks, but fails to truly deliver.

Le Vamp tries to put something new into the endless run genre, but fails to deliver.

Army of Two is still pure action 100%, without any sort of character depth but full of intensity and destruction.

Code of Princess is flawed by annoying technical and gameplay issues that don't really live up to the Guardian Heroes legacy everyone was hoping for.

Not the deepest 4x title out there, StarDrive regains complexity through real time space combat and well implemented ship customization. Oddly the launch version of the game is incomplete, full of glitches and needs urgent updates.

While fun at first, Backbreaker has got problems on the long run, due to its limits and the absence of official licenses and making Madden the best choice for NFL fans.

Experience 112 has one on the most fresh, innovative and intriguing gameplay so far, but it's all doomed by numerous bugs and a cheesy storyline. It's a shame that this sort of experimental game has been shipped with a lot of issues.

Alpha Protocol is a strange game. No matter how good and deep is the rpg part, with a well told story, it's almost completely broke when it's time to shoot and sneak. The A.I. is so cheesy and ramdom that completely make you forget your class and skills.

Watchmen: The End is Nigh is not a completely broken game, nor a good game, it's just like an old brawler game like the ones we used to play at the arcade, but it's a little bit short and tedious. However there is no question that breaking bones and killing scum as Rorsharch could be funny and enjoyable side by side with Night Howl II.

Ok It's for free and that's good, but the balance issues, the small number of maps and some not well designed features make it a missed opportunity.

MySims Party is not the worst game of its genre, and yet it fails in delivering basic elements such as funny minigames and responsive controls. It's ok for kids, but that's about it.

LEGO Battles is a RTS especially developed for children: some will find it too easy, yet it is undeniable LEGO always charms the most nostalgic players. However, LEGO Battles still delivers a solid and appealing gameplay and a very funny multiplayer mode: such a nice couple of features, yet not enough to deserve it a very good mark.

This new Dead to rights may appeal to B-Movie fans. For everyone else this is just a decent game with too many problems and a dog which just barks and doesn't bite.

Elite Forces is an old school action game with little ambitions, but direct and fun. It has some problems, though: controls are a bit inaccurate, there isn't multiplayer (offline or online) and, above all, it has poor AI.

Section 8 is a fairly traditional FPS, featuring a couple of interesting points (the launch phase and device management). The story mode is too short, only eight missions, while the online multiplayer mode seems to be fun, with forty players and eighteen maps. Definitely not the best FPS around.

There are a few welcome additions, which fans will surely appreciate, but Dynasty Saga's gameplay and structure are getting more and more boring and old.

Too easy, too short and not replayable. These are the the three main problems about CSI: Deadly Intent. If you are a really hardcore fan of the series and you'd like an easy game with which gain gamertag points, then this might be a worthy purchase.

DiRT's debut on Wii will disappoint fans of the series and fans of driving games in general. The cars lack of detail, the tracks are poor and there are many frame rate issues. You can't even play with the Wii-mote, since it's very unresponsive, so you should use Nunchuck's analog stick or connect a Classic Controller.

Lucidity has stiff commands and some of the levels seems drawn at random, but it has a fantastic visual style.

Regardless of its faults, Assassin's Creed II: Discovery is a far better game than its prequel. With the idea of imitating the original design dropped for good, Discovery feels now like a traditional side-scrolling platform. In the end the game mixes a good level design with flat pace, simple fights and boring, frustrating stealth sessions.

Vancouver 2010 offers fourteen sports, thirty challenges and an poor online multiplayer: too little to compete even with SEGA's previous Olympic effort, Beijing 2008. The game delivers very good graphics and sound, but lacks of a career mode.

Accompanied by four awful multiplayer minigames, the single player mode offers a good number of different missions, but the "hunting" sessions have lost much of their charm due to the low level of challenge and pretty inaccurate controls.

Touch controls are well done, and even level design isn't that bad: simply, they aren't made to stay together, and this is the real, enormous problem of this game. Auto-jumping works in Zelda, not in an action-oriented platform game like this. A low-budget and incoherent project that could have been far, far better.

Legends of Exidia is a mature and complete game that represent a significant step forward for the Nintendo internet based service DSi-Ware. This adventure is a good action-rpg based on the old style Japanese titles of the '90, but lacks the magic of the true classics.

We can rate Green Day: Rockband with a 6 just thinking of fans' love or of those looking for an easy game to begin with the series. But we need to warn those who loved The Beatles episode that its magic and creativity is nowhere to be found in this game.

Short and uninspired, Kasumi surpass in quality other Bioware's downloadable contents but remains far away from Mass Effect 2 quality level.

The first hours you'll spend with naughty bear will fly by, the only problem is that after those there won't be much else left. Good ideas ruined by a less than average execution.

After tons of really good adventures, TellTale tries to make something different with this Layton's clone that fails because of a lack of depth and gameplay diversity.

FIFA 11 on the Nintendo DS delivers poor graphics, mediocre AI and a series of problems that afflict the overall experience in different ways. However, the online multiplayer is still there and works well, the additional buttons via touch screen provide a good number of options during the matches and the controls via d-pad seem to be accurate enough.

There are way too many party games on Wii: that's why the main issue of Pac-Man Party is that it does absolutely nothing to stand out in the crowd.

It's clear that fans of Jigsaw, those who know everything about the Saw movie franchise and appreciated the first tie-in, will also enjoy this sequel. The fact is the game could have been way better than this. The puzzles are very repetitive, and the lack of a real combat system further devalues the title, which would have benefited of more action.

Clearly made for younger gamers, The Lord of the Rings: Aragorn's Quest comes with a large number of very simple quests, gaining some thickness only when our character earns all his skills and fights against several enemies at once. The motion detection works well, while the graphics are generally poor.

Clearly made for younger gamers, The Lord of the Rings: Aragorn's Quest comes with a large number of very simple quests, gaining some thickness only when our character earns all his skills and fights against several enemies at once. The motion detection works well, while the graphics are generally poor.

This action packed spin off, may please to real fans looking for something different. All of the others will be soon turned off by its lack of diversity and clumsy mechanics.

No motion detection for this year's edition of WWE Smackdown vs. Raw for the Nintendo Wii. The game is a simple PS2 port with standard controls, a lot of contents but the same, old, slow, cumbersome gameplay.

Raging Blast 2 is not a good beat'em up on its own. It's just a good fan service, but other players should probably skip it and look elsewhere.

Shaun White Skateboarding for Wii is a very simple title, fairly funny at first but too limited and repetitive in order to entertain for more than a few hours. Ubisoft has decided to shelve the structure designed for the PS3 and Xbox 360 versions, offering a sort of simplification for younger gamers, and the result is disappointing. Better go back to the mountains, maybe.

Nail'd is a decent off road game, with beautiful visuals and stunning track design, but it is not as rewarding and challenging as an arcade game should be. The greatest flaws of the package are that the game is too easy for a long time and the handling is just a walk in the park, causing a near boredom experience.

It may be fun at first, but Devil May Cry 4 Refrain comes with a large number of limitations, both in terms of gameplay and graphics. The game is far too easy, with infinite continue, the combat is oversimplified and the locations are too small and too similar to each other. It's still a decent action game for your iPhone / iPod Touch, but we were expecting more.

World Cup on the iPhone is really a minor step forward compared to Fifa 10; the fact that this game is basically an enhanced version of the original N-Gage edition is a big problem, and EA should really think about investing on a brand new project to create a soccer game that lives up the quality of the Fifa series.

Maybe it's for the dilated plot or maybe for the lack of great turns of events in the first hours, but The Last King of Africa doesn't look suitable for being splitted into small episodes. It's an extremely linear and really short game, that greatly disfigures near other point-and-click adventures on the App Store, like Monkey Island 2: Special Edition and Hector: Badge of Carnage.

SEED 2 - Vortex of War delivers some classic RPG action on iPhone. One the one hand,, real time fights are nicely done and your character levels up in different ways according to the weapon you use. On the other hand, the plot is nothing but original, the adjustable game speed works awfully and the graphics come with too much blur. RPG fans should give it a try, while others can avoid it.

Touch Racing Nitro is an arcade game that could be a good alternative of a traditional racing game, but the pretty and colored graphics can't hide the problematic control scheme and the gameplay incoherencies. It's not possible to play quick race, only tournament or time trial: this limitation is not acceptable for an iPhone game.

Truckers Delight was originally an irreverent, funny and politically scorrect clip directed by Jérémie Périn; however, the game dedicated loses the best ideas and reduces the originally concept to an anonymous arcade race game.

Cubed Rally Racer looks like an experiment for testing Unity3d rather than a finished and polished game. The colourful graphics, the retro style feeling and the randomness of the tracks are totally ruined by the awful and frustrating control schemes. The OpenFeint integration is fine but we miss the lack of a real multiplayer mode.

MaXplosion comes with some nice graphics and a good number of levels, but the mediocre controls make the whole experience not so worthy.

Real Golf 2011 comes with a career mode full of events and situations, ten different characters, many extras and an interesting multiplayer mode both local and online. The gameplay, however, is sometimes dull, with cumbersome controls and some questionable solutions.

Breach is an average FPS, carboncopying tens of previously released games without adding nothing personal or new. FPS fans may want to give it a try.

A nostalgic old school effort from developer G.rev. Nice graphic for a Live Arcade title, but this little shooter is rather short and pretty hard to beat.

Lord of Arcana tries to follow in the footsteps of Monster Hunter, but without success. The plot, which revolves around a magical stone and the "chosen one" who must retrieve it, fails to deliver, while the controls make cumbersome and uninspiring both the exploration and the combat.

We had high expectations for WWE All Stars, but unfortunately the game failed to deliver. The Wii version, in particular, comes with so many problems (cumbersome controls, poor collisions, awful sound effects, lack of multiplayer) that's hard to recommend it even to a huge fan of the genre.

Despite the presence of dinosaurs and a good dose of irony, the game fails to distinguish itself from many other exponents of the genre.

Virtua Tennis 4 for Wii is a disappointing game: it almost doesn't use motion controls, and without motion controls, on Wii, it is just a little better than the first Virtua Tennis, published over ten years ago.

The Harry Potter videogames saga comes to an end with a fun third person shooter in which you'll use your magic wand in a lot of different ways. The game is sincerely enjoyable, but it's also way too short and simple.

Excellent simulation and storic research, Cold War suffers some AI problem, poor engine and inconsistent music and sound effects.

With its focus on mindless destruction, Bodycount starts as a refreshing return to the roots of the original FPS, but the short campaign, the lack of many game modes and a certain monotony during the levels keep the Codemasters' title from being a good game overall.

The Wii version of Driver: San Francisco has nothing in common with the excellent game developed by Ubisoft Reflections on Xbox 360, PlayStation 3 and PC. This is rather a classic episode of the series, with the same old gameplay, cumbersome controls (and you can't customize them in any way) and mediocre graphics.

Want some brainless intense action rpg filled by all the classic clichè of this genre? Crimson Alliance may be your perfect game to play, but it's surely far from excellence.

Spiderman: Edge of Time is just another tie-in without all the things that now a good game needs to have. It's definitely not spectacular, and certainly not amazing. Batman is really lucky for his new game, but it is another universe really far far away.

Even if the Unreal Engine makes its graphics look quite good, Gyro13 is an unpolished game, with several technical flaws and design imperfections.

Sword of the Stars II is a complete mess but inside the mess there is one hell of a space 4x odissey. Hopefully the guys at Kherberos will complete the game with patches and upgrades and, maybe, with a couple of scenarios.

A good idea poorly executed, that's what WWE All Stars is all about. The game's structure is good, but the gameplay suffers from so many flaws you simply can't ignore.

In many ways, Marvel Super Hero Squad: The Infinity Gauntlet turns out to be a rather nice game. It's got a great number of super heroes, a decent combat system and some very nice graphics and voices. What a pity the enemies respawn constantly and the whole experience becomes boring and repetitive very soon.

Despite renewed graphics and controls, Dungeon Hunter III fails to implement a new microtransaction-based formula and turn out to be way less enjoyable than previous chapters.

Tough controls and an IAP system too intrusive are just two of the problems that spoil an otherwise good but far from stellar game.

Greedy Penguins is packed with a lot of levels and comes with some funny graphics, but fails to deliver. The touch controls are pretty unresponsive and the physics-based puzzles are all but flawless.

Although fun, the gameplay of Michael Jackson: The Experience HD is very short, limited and lacks depth. Only the most enthusiastic fans of the King of The Pop will appreciate it.

Little Deviants is a moderate showcase of PlayStation Vita's features, however such features are not always well implemented and lead to awkward moments of pure frustration. When minigames are good and well designed Little Deviants is a fun and enjoyable compilation, otherwise it often becomes dull and repetitive.

Not only One Epic Games is too similar to other running games on iOS, but it completely fails to offer a well-balanced gameplay, stumbling on its own randomness.

Team Ninja left the road Itakagi used to walk with such a bold attitude for so many years. The main problem with Ninja Gaiden 3 is that the new title is filled with problems and average gameplay.

Crow is definitely style over substance, and good graphics and a fascinating concept can't overcome the fact that the game is simply too boring.

Back to the Future: the Game is a good adventure, recommended to all the fans of the series. Just, if you can, don't buy it on the Wii: the framerate is a nightmare.

Datura's premise is fascinating, but the game fails to deliver because of some poor controls (both with Move or Dual Shock), lack of content and lots of invisible walls to deal with.

Fans of George R.R. Martin's novels could appreciate the atmosphere of Game of Thrones, since the game delivers a solid story, especially in the final chapters. Unfortunately the merits end here, as the experience is plagued by awful graphics, pointless fights and uninspired exploration.

If you're a "Kinect skeptic", Steel Battalion: Heavy Armor will not change your mind. At all. Motion controls may work better or worse depending on the room, but they'll never be accurate enough to let you survive an ambush.

The Amazing Spider-Man is a decent, challenging action game, but it suffers from a series of problems: bad controls, bad camera, bad graphics.

Mild Tony Hawk's first episodes HD mash-up. Control system is arcaic and not on par with Skate, poor single player mode and glitchy graphic engine. Online is a lot of fun.

Gas Guzzlers: Combat Carnage offers nice controls and decent graphics. Oddly global game design is poor and you may need to be bored before reaching the full potential of the game.

Despite the great graphics that could suggest otherwise, Galaxy on Fire II is a game conceived for mobile platforms, and should've stayed right there.

Tryst is an RTS based on resource gathering that enriches his extremely classic gameplay with unit customization and environmental hazard. The result is a solid experience, especially in multiplayer, flawed by poor graphics, average sound and a short campaign.

Inazuma Eleven Strikers lost all the charm and inventiveness featured in the portable incarnations of the franchise: this Wii version is just a clunky arcade soccer game with tons of fan service and not really much more than that.

Cortex Command is brilliant, but unfortunately still incomplete. The strong community is trying to fix the many problems the games has, but as of now it still not enough. For almost twenty euros we can recommend the game only to the most patient gamers.

Medal of Honor: Warfighter is a true disappointment. The campaign is not only short but is also dull and derivative, with just a few interesting and memorable missions. The multiplayer works, with a pair of interesting features, but it sits in the grey zone between Battlefield and Call of Duty.

WWE '13 is basically the same game Yuke's delivers each and every year on Wii. A few minor changes aren't enough to justify the purchase.

The disturbing idea of a child that kills innocent people is good enough for a murder or two. Then it simply bores you to death.

Hyper is an uglier version of the original Warriors Orochi 3, slower and technically flawed. However, despite the little implementation of the GamePad, the Duel Mode is a great addition, both in single and multiplayer.

The idea of celebrating a tribute to Castle of Illusion while applying the Epic Mickey formula is nice, but the execution leaves too much to be desired.

Thanks to some neat ideas, Rabbids Rumble is something more than just a common minigames compilation but not enough to be more than mediocre.

Verticus is a simple, fast but unattractive "endless falling" game. It can be fun the first time, but it doesn't last long.

Fuel Overdose is a top-down arcade racer full of potentially good ideas...poorly implemented.

The idea unfortunately is not as well executed as It could be: a nice concept but a not so great game!

Die Hard would be a funny endless runner, if only wasn't filled with so many overwhelming and intrusive in-app purchases.

Haunted Hollow is a disappointing game that wastes its good ideas with a gameplay that's way too limited and an horrific use of the IAP.

Game Dev Tycoon is an enjoyable tycoon game with too simplistic and sometimes obscure mechanics. Buy it if you want to explore the dev side of the videogame industry.

Lords of Football has a great idea behind it, but it's an unripe fruit. After enjoying it for some time, you will inevitably notice some gaps in the gameplay mechanics.

DUST 514 is free-to-play and it's got some potential, but definitely fails to deliver.

Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen for Nintendo Wii is a honest tie-in. The game features decent graphics and a good variety of situations but suffers from poor scenarios and ugly fights.

Tenchu: Shadow Assassins delivers lots of stealth action, but it gives you absolutely no choice on how you beat each mission: if someone sees you, it's over. You can't go on rooftops anymore, and the first person combat system is poor and frustrating. The game comes with some good graphics, but the gameplay suffers from several flaws.

Overlord could have been a good game: it has classical but great puzzles and a well developed level design. Sadly, the bad controls (touch screen only) ruin everything: they are far too rough.

1112 Episode 02 is simply unforgivable. Louis Everett has to interact with unappealing characters, trying to clarify a plot that gropes in the dark from the very beginning to the end.

Are you still playing SOCOM on PS2? OK, that's the only way you can enjoy SOCOM: Confrontation on PS3 since the game has no single player campaign and it offers multiplayer modes only. The gameplay appears to be too simplified for a modern third person shooter, as you have no chance to hide and shoot. The updates fixed most of the problems, but expect some lag and bugs when you're in a 32 players match. If you were waiting for a nextgen SOCOM episode, well, keep on waiting.

Marvel Super Hero Squad is a children-oriented action game with nice cut scenes, cartoon-like graphics and a repetitive gameplay.

This is not the game that we expected from Cing's Wii debut; Another Code: R is a shallow and tedious adventure that will appeal only to the most patient players.

This Wii-Ware puzzle game is a very simple and repetitive game, and his fast and accessible gameplay it's unable to deliver fun for more than half an hour.

Mad Moxxi's Underdome Riot is really a disappointment, taking away from Borderlands the best elements of the gameplay; the result is a punishing, hardcore and ingenerous experience that only few people will enjoy.

It probably will not surprise you, but Iron Man 2 is a mediocre game. We appreciated the presence of various elements of interest in the first episode, elements that unfortunately have not been developed (or included at all) in this sequel. Better luck next time?

Cradle of Egypt is a fun, addictive little game, but unfortunately it doesn't offer anything more than its many free counterparts, not even a multiplayer mode! So, why bother?

Peculiar challenges and a good managerial dimension have to compare with a poorly detailed graphics and an excessive selling price.

Tron: Evolution is a perfect tie-in, decent visuals but unfortunately the gameplay is quite broken. The platform parts are plagued by trial and error mechanics and cheesy camera, combat parts are quite good, but they lack variety and in the end they can be quite boring.

If you are a fan of the arcade or not, doesn't care. Time Crisis: Razing Storm is a badly bundled collection. Aiming and shooting with the Move is simple and fun, but the three arcade titles would have been better if the game wasn't so permissive. The FPS mode in Razing Storm hasn't learned anything from the best shooters on the Wii, offering a slow, uncomfortable and very much rough combat system.

The concept here is actually quite intriguing, as such PixelJunk Racers 2nd Lap is a very neat arcade game. However, without mentioning the cheap visuals, the general game design is repetitive and frustrating, not really linked to simple control scheme and ideas such as these. It takes just a few minutes to realize PixelJunk Racers 2nd Lap is more about luck than skills, quite a negative feature for an arcade racing game.

Ultimate Mortal Kombat 3 could be an interesting mobile episode while waiting for the new Next Gen version; however, the bad control system makes this experience like a nightmare.

Comes with several tricks, stages and challenges, but the controls are too cumbersome to be fun. Skateboarding enthusiasts will find in the game a lot of interesting things, while all others should look elsewhere.

Shrek: Forever After - The Game looks like a Crash Bandicoot clone, which is not a bad thing: the green ogre jumps, turns on itself, breaks crates and fights enemies through a series of very colorful stages. The basic gameplay is also accompanied by a series of alternative sections that involve the accelerometer and enrich a control system otherwise based solely on the touch screen. Unfortunately, the virtual d-pad is really unresponsive and makes the overall experience frustrating and cumbersome.

Air Conflicts: Secret Wars has many technical flaws and start too slow to be fun. Some missions are good, many too many are flat and boring.

Driver Renegade 3D sports quick, immediate and amusing gameplay, but no content beside a brief Story Mode and a monotonous Career Mode. With no multiplayer to be seen, this is a missed opportunity and a game not to buy, at full price at least.

This installment in the Mystery Case Files franchise will appeal only a small niche of players but even in that case the overall quality of visuals and gameplay is not high enough to redeem its shallow plot and repetitive puzzles.

Too bugs, unpolished features and design mistakes keep Stronghold 3 far from the heights of the series.

Real Football 2012 unfortunately suffers from the same problems that characterized last year's edition: poor AI, no official licenses and unresponsive controls.

Mass Effect Infiltrator is definetly an improvement over the horrible Galaxy, but still a disappointing attempt to deliver the Mass Effect universe on the App Store. Bland story and characters and boring gameplay mechanics are the major flaws that can't be overlooked.

The second adventure of Ayumi is just a simply and stereotyped fantasy action game, with an interesting time feature and a combat system ruined by a bad camera and approximate controls.

Kinect Star Wars is a rich Kinect title flawed by poor dialog, control issues and forgettable extra modes. Anyway kids will likely enjoy pods and dancing sessions while fans will be attracted by the chanche to wield a light saber.

Infinite Warrior is another endless action game, but the gameplay it's really repetitive and too simple. It's inspired by Infinity Blade but it's less dynamic and of course less polished than the Epic's Masterpiece.

Resident Evil Mercenaries VS. focuses on the multiplayer, even if it's very hard to find a match right now. There are some interesting things the developers put on the table, but the cumbersome controls and the poor maps will let you down.

Telltale Games brought back to life Universal's dinosaurs, but something must have gone tremendously wrong during the process.

Slender: The Arrival is a repetitive game which lives on a single mechanic. Graphically well done, it's a longer version of Slender: The Eight Pages, with all its limits multiplied.

Grin's game doesn't succeed in bringing back to life all of the thrills and epic Cameron's saga has been able to deliver in the movies, and fans will find few elements of the ones which made Terminator such a big blockbuster. Single player campaign is short and samey, co op play is offline only. The only ones who'll really like Salvation, are Achievements/Trophies' hunters, who'll be able to unlock them all in about 5 hours of average gameplay.

Another Dynasty Warriors episode doesn't renews the old gameplay of this brand. Good only for the old Dynasty Warriors fanbase, the other player should stay away from this repetitive and boring game.

Assassin's Creed Rearmed comes with a fast matchmaking system and lots of things to unlock, most of which you have to pay for. The controls don't work good as they should, however, making the whole experience very cumbersome and annoying.

Painkiller: Recurring Evil is nothing but some sort of "horde mode", with five levels and thousands of AI-lacking monsters to kill using the same old weapons, with the same old graphics.

MotoGP 08 delivers a sub-par experience in every single aspect: graphics are shallow, controls are dull and unresponsive, and the gameplay is kinda boring. Still, it's one of the few "serious" racing games on Wii, but that's hardly gonna be a selling point.

The main problem with this expansion is the price you’ll be charged to play it. Even for the ones who overlooked Underworld shortcomings, 800 MP could be too many for just a couple of hours of adventuring. We wish we had more in this package than just the new Lara’s swimsuits.

The latest installment in the powerful Naruto franchise didn't leave us enthusiastic: the few game modes available, some problems with the combat system and a very simple and linear adventure make it a fan-only oriented game.

A lot of fans were probably waiting for The King of Fighters XII with open arms, but lag during the online matches, the small number of available fighters and stages ruined what could have been a really nice and welcome addition to PS3 and Xbox 360's libraries.

Fairytale Fights' promises end up being sadly unfulfilled. Its gore and fun approach crashes upon awkward controls and boring gameplay. It's definitely a missed opportunity.

Armada 2526 is a classic RTS with a good exploration phase, but the fights are ugly and the graphics seem to come from ten years ago. There are certainly die-hard enthusiasts who will appreciate the quality of the title developed by Nitronium Games, but it's hard to suggest this game to someone who doesn't like the genre.

The presence of well constructed brand new characters is totally eclipsed by an unsatisfactory finale and recycled settings.

Graphic elements and the general atmosphere are good, but the lack of online multiplayer combined with an incredible slowness and a lean strategic front make the global experience unsatisfactory.

Lots of bugs and some major gameplay faults do not permit Ship Simulator Extreme to be anything more than a whole of many boats and missions.

The last born in Gothic series maintains the trademark atmosphere, suffering however an excessive simplification of the gameplay mechanics and a heavy, flawed graphics engine.

Clone Wars Adventures offers a wide variety of minigames and a nice visual. That's all the good you can have from a game that, other than that, uses the micro transactions system to the extreme and lacks of depth already after some hours of gameplay.

If you meant to buy a Wii RemotePlus, then FlingSmash is a reasonable purchase, since the bundle is sold basically at the same price of the controller. The idea of using Arkanoid-like mechanics in a colourful adventure was certainly original at first, but in FlingSmash it has been transposed in a flimsy gameplay and in a very dull experience. The game suffers the lack of extra modes, interesting minigames or ideas that truly take advantages of the Wii RemotePlus' capability.

MotoGP 2010 offers a good number of motorcycles and tracks thanks to the official MotoGP license, but in terms of gameplay it's a very cumbersome experience.

Almost nothing works in Knights Contract and it's strange since Game Republic have a name for interesting and well crafted games. It's too hard and not accessible enough.

Although better than the orribile Resurrection, Painkiller: Redemption is a cheap-but-cobbled-together new chapter in a series that has nothing left to say.

On the one hand, Asphalt 3D delivers a rich single player career, a large number of online multiplayer modes and some decent 3D effects; on the other hand, the graphics are poor and suffer from frequent frame drops, while the physics are ugly. Not the racing game we were expecting from Gameloft, definitely.

Theatre of War 3: Korea is old inside, bugged, without great ideas and has many other structural flaws. Don't buy it.

MX Vs ATV Alive is not a bad game: it has good gameplay mechanics, good AI drivers and a discrete control system. But the serious lack of content, the lack of a true Career Mode, the repetitive progression of events and some technical issues drag it down.

I'm sure there are people who will find E.Y.E: Divine Cybermancy a very enjoyable title, maybe because of its complexity, its being "old school" in an always more console oriented PC market. The fact is this game suffers from so many shortcomings that it's really hard to recommend to anyone.

Despite a few interesting game mechanics and Mike Carey's writing, X-Men Destiny is a pale adventure with no challenge whatsoever and really outdated visuals. Fans of the franchise would rather play as one of their beloved heroes or villains instead of a generic super kid, that's for sure.

An average remake from Frozen Codebase, with tons of problems and frustrating boss fights. The original game maybe deserved better.

We do not want to sanctify the work of Griptonite Games (in recent times, they were able to pull off stuff like Green Lantern: Rise of the Manhunters, one of the ugliest games ever for Wii), but there's a huge quality gap from last year's Spider-Man: Shattered Dimensions and Spider-Man: Edge of Time. That's a great disappointment, even for the fans of the character.

An incredible, for all the wrong reasons, AI literarly kills an otherwise surprising conversion.

Neverdead has a lot of good ideas, unfortunately they are doomed by a completely broken camera and a caotic and repetitive action. The dismemberment also is a non feature and it's broken too, adds nothing to the 3rd person shooting mechanic.

F1 2011 is not a good game. The game has a lot of problems, way bigger than the home console versions. Bad A.I, unpolished visuals and an easy and too arcade handling condemn the game to a mediocrity that the franchise doesn't deserve.

YDS is a broken TPS, the zombie shooting is repetitive and boring and plagued by bad camera and controls that simply don't work. A lot of weapons, upgrades, sidequests and the usual minigames by the way, but in the end YDS is simply no fun.

Boring hack 'n slash with clunky combat system, frustrating camera and choppy framerate. Art style is very good and someone will like the massive gore.

Beautiful presentation aside, Unstoppable Fist fails to deliver: the touch controls aren't responsive as they should be, the action is too repetitive and you hardly feel like you're actually hitting something.

A very linear action RPG with muddled combat system, technical glitches and nasty script, Cyanide game never manage to entertain. Maybe is not time yet for Orcs glory, just leave this duo alone.

Dragon Ball Z Budokai HD Collection brings together two very old DBZ beat'em-ups, only adding HD resolution to the mix. The result, as you may expect, is disappointing.

Archaic third person shooter based on MacFarlane characters. Aiming is weak, pale graphics and wounding vulgarity make for an average-at-best package. Result is for show hardcore fans only.

LEGO The Lord of the Rings on Nintendo 3DS is a low budget porting, lacking in content and flawed by a number of technical issues. It probably could have been much better than this, if not good as the home console counterpart.

Akaneiro: Demon Hunters is an average game with an invading fremium system. Try it only if you have already play all the others action RPG on the market.

A budget first person tactical shooter, hampered by mediocre artificial intelligence, linear level design and lots of graphical glitches. Single player campaign is short and what is left is an inconsistent multiplayer mode.

Star Trek does a good job in terms of script and atmosphere, and it's decent on long-distance gunplay. But the overall experience is poor and unpolished.

We really enjoyed the artistic department of the game but it's the only good thing of this game. The plot can't deliver emotions and the puzzles are too easy and extremely linear. The result is an adventure we can't suggest to the players.

Star Wars brand's strength is really timeless, but it's not enough to save a game which is really too easy and too rough around the edges to be considered really worth of a videogamer's time and money.

In this Wii version, X-Men - Origins: Wolverine comes with poor graphics and ugly sound (the voices, in particular). It's annoying to play, very repetitive and boring. Since the PS3 and Xbox 360 versions are way better than this, on all fronts, it's a shame that Wii owners can't play a decent Wolverine game this time around.

Drawn to Life: The Next Chapter is a very simple platform game, with no particular ambitions. The developers have staked everything on the idea behind the series, which is the ability for the player to draw its own character and a set of objects more or less useful within the game. The problem is that the Wii-mote is not that good at drawing.

Ghostbusters: The Videogame for Nintendo DS has a few neat ideas that have not been deployed nicely. The simplistic gameplay is anything but a flaw in this installment, but developers slipped on a few annoying design issues which prevent from enjoying what's good in the cartridge. This careless adventure of the four Ghostbusters is a flawed product recommended only to fans of the franchise and younger players.

Stormrise should have been a new start for the RTS genre on consoles, but it's not. The controls are too slow and unresponsive when you have to move several units on the map, the graphics aren't spectacular at all and the gameplay is cumbersome and frustrating. What a pity, since the story seems to be interesting.

Sonic and the Black Knight is visually striking but once started waggling the Wiimote it becomes clear how poor the gameplay is. It is just sad to realize every new 3D Sonic game happens to fail: apparently Sonic Team is trying to renew the franchise but perhaps the true Sonic is the old, linear and 2D platform we still love.

Koei brings another classic hack'n slash from the Dynasty series, but gameplay is still boring and repetitive. The little Gundam wikipedia inside the game is a bonus, but a strong "deja vu" feeling is granted for everyone.

Shellshock 2 is a short game with nothing that's worth a try. It lacks a plot, action and tactics and all it's asking to you is to accept the imprecision of the control system.

The Chase could be a a fresh and nice little game, but unfortunately the horrible save system ruins almost everything.

In its portable version, Army of Two: The 40th Day delivers good graphics and some classic shoot'em-up action. However, the gameplay suffers from a mediocre AI and the six stages are too short to last more than four hours.

In Star Wars Battlefront: Elite Squadron for Nintendo DS you can switch between four classes and use different weapons, but unfortunately this doesn't change the poor combat system and the lack of a decent level design.

James Cameron's Avatar: The Game it's a poor and hasty tie-in. The gameplay is based almost entirely on stealth action, but the exploration is reduced to a minimum. The combat system seems to work well, but it makes possible to kill the enemies just shaking the controller randomly.

No longer a sidekick Clank tries to be the hero of a game, unfortunately he fails in this psp port for the Playstation 2. A well devised gameplay is plagued by camera issues, poor detailed visuals and a limping frame rate.

Despite quite a potential, Venetica takes elements from other different games mortifying all of them with a result that doesn't come even close to the quality level that an ambitious production needs to reach.

Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Sky does not add anything relevant to the series and it is not an evolution at all compared to Explorers of Darkness and Explorers of Time. This installment is clearly designed to squeeze moneys out of the franchise, aiming to kids who will eventually love to enter the world of pokémons once again.

Bakugan Battle Brawlers is obviously aimed at fans of the anime series who will enjoy their favourite characters and locations. To a more casual player however it looks like a mish-mash of rules and concepts, frustrating and slow paced: just too empty to be enjoyed by players not interested in the source franchise.

A short and insipid dlc which doesn't add nothing to the original game. Five dollars are just too many for this kind of experience.

Adam's Venture: The Search for the Lost Garden is clearly a budget title. It needs about two hours to be completed and delivers a very basic gameplay, with simple puzzles and poor exploration.

The Battle of Forlì is a disappointing DLC that is build on some of the weakest parts of the original game; not really an essential purchase then, even at the low price point.

GTI Club: Supermini Fiesta! comes with a series of technical flaws that affect even its gameplay. The game delivers a good online multiplayer mode and lots of crazy challenges, but almost no real race. That's ridiculous.
