Good ideas not quite fulfilling their potential

Batman: Arkham City

A deep and tightly formed game full of extras and fan service for players to discover as they stalk the gotham streets.

Arkham asylum, it could be argued that it was the break out hit of 2009. A risk to begin with it totally blew away most people expecting very little from the comic book based game. Rocksteady created one of the mo... Read Full Review

Fallout: New Vegas - Honest Hearts

With such a deep set and well developed back story for the events surrounding this DLC you can help but be dissapointed.

Shadow of the Colossus

Very few games create a deep and believable world that the player can really get lost in, shadow of the colossus does.

It's hard to find a game that really creates a world that's both tangible but also breath-taking in their breadth and also in the visual splendor of it. Shadow of the colossus in one game that can say it does this. This ... Read Full Review

When i came to tron bonne I didnt have any idea of the connection to megaman, i'd never played legends and just bought this colourful and fun looking game on a whim. I didnt get what i was expected, i got better. Bac... Read Full Review

Alien Spidy

Full of potential but flawed and broken to the point of being frustrating

Everything about Alien Spidy is good, in concept. When it comes to the implementation of those ideas everything falls apart and you are left with a game that's both frustrating and disappointing. Odd little alien, Spi... Read Full Review

Retro City Rampage

Retro City Rampage is a game that has shows strength and weakness entirely through player recognition.

Pid

pid has brilliant art-house style but is excessively cruel

Sonic Adventure 2

sonic adventure 2, a mess with spots of hidden quality.

Sonic Adventure was regarded as a good, if flawed, game when it came out on the Dreamcast; it was never going to be heralded as perfect but it managed to remain an air of respectability. Sonic Adventure 2, on the other h... Read Full Review

The Unfinished Swan

An indie, art house tech demo, wrapped in a touching and lovely children s story.

The Unfinished Swan is a touching and charming story that, defying most video game conventions, manages to be told in a simply fashion, but also extremely well. As a game, this almost entirely narrative driven experience... Read Full Review

NiGHTS into Dreams...

An original classic gets just a little more attention, and while its not for everyone, it definitely deserves love.

On its original release, NiGHTS into Dreams was a startlingly original and challenging title, both by means of design and visual style. However, its gameplay was quite divisive back in the day and, despite getting a HD s... Read Full Review

Jet Set Radio

A classic that doesn't age well... has an amazing soundtrack though.

Mini Ninjas Adventures

my word this is just broken.

The original Mini Ninjas was a delightful little family friendly 3D platformer, that had lots of nice ideas and fun moments. But we need to be blunt here. The Kinect only follow up is a shamefully broken mess and a waste... Read Full Review

Magic: The Gathering - Duels of the Planeswalkers 2013

Magic represented poorly in video/computer game form.
