Need for Speed: The Run: Running out of steam.

Need for Speed: The Run: Running out of steam.
Need for Speed: The Run
The Run manages to capture none of the over-the-top fun of the earlier Need for Speed titles, nor the polish of its contemporaries, and that it gets so many things wrong - from the basics of vehicle handling to the construction of its c...

GoldenEye 007 Reloaded: I've found his weakness

GoldenEye 007 Reloaded: I've found his weakness
GoldenEye 007 Reloaded
Reloaded looks and feels very much like a budget release, but worse, it plays like a bit of a dinosaur. The basic level design and lacklustre AI might have been passable on the Wii given the lack of competition, but on the HD consoles it...

Uncharted 3: Off the map.

Uncharted 3: Off the map.
Uncharted 3
You might have already noticed that I seem to have spent a great deal of time criticising the game, yet I've given it a high score. Like I said earlier, its not that Uncharted 3 is a bad game by any stretch - by any measure it's a great one. But to...

Dance Central 2: Dancing stage.

Dance Central 2: Dancing stage.
Dance Central 2
Dance Central 2 proves once again that Harmonix know what its doing when it comes to music games, and whilst it lacks some of the party-friendly features of its rivals, it is a much better game. The additions over the first game are welcome, an...

Sonic Generations: Sonic warrior, deep in space and time.

Sonic Generations: Sonic warrior, deep in space and time.
Sonic Generations
It's safe to say that Sonic Generations' main appeal will be to fans of the series, but it is absolutely good enough to stand on its own. If you're a Sonic fan, Generations is a must-buy. If you've ever liked platformers, Generations is a mus...

Advent Vega: Oh god... Vega!

Advent Vega: Oh god... Vega!
Advent Vega
All told, the Vega is a device that, in its factory form, serves little purpose. With no Marketplace, and no basic office programs, you're stuck with just the default applications - which basically boil down to a web browser. If you're willing to s...

Forza Motorsport 4: A Forza nature.

Forza Motorsport 4: A Forza nature.
Forza Motorsport 4
Its impossible to consider Forza 4 without at least a glance at the Gran Turismo-shaped elephant in the room. But Gran Turismo is like a tease, a challenge, something to be perservered with in order to eventually unlock its many layers. Forz...

Guardian Heroes HD: Big shoulder pads rule!

Guardian Heroes HD: Big shoulder pads rule!
Guardian Heroes HD
Which brings me back to my earlier point: Guardian Heroes HD really is the definitive version of a must-play classic that's as fresh, fun, and challenging today as it ever was. At a mere 800 points, its a steal.

Rage: Cou-RAGE under fire.

Rage: Cou-RAGE under fire.
Rage
Rage isn't necessarily the smartest or slickest game, but that doesn't matter: despite its cliché setting and underwhelming story, the core gameplay shines, and somehow id's latest feels fresh and markedly different. It really feels as though id has made...

Aliens: Infestation: Another bughunt?

Aliens: Infestation: Another bughunt?
Aliens: Infestation
The niggles don't count against Infestation too much though, so long as you go in knowing to expect a challenge. Veterans will enjoy exploring every nook and cranny of the maps, whilst Aliens fans will enjoy the loving homages to the classi...
