While it may be a bit too familiar, this year?s crop of college stars still deliver a solid performance on the field.
The long-awaited Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater HD rolls onto Xbox Live, containing HD remakes of 7 classic THPS 1 and 2 stages. See how this re-imagining shapes up in our full review.
Spidey swings onto consoles again, a scant 10 months after his last ill-fated adventure. Tying this new game into the film’s universe does the series little favors, and while the return of web-swinging through New York is great to have, there’s little else worth seeing here.
Marvel Pinball: Avengers Chronicles marks another four table set to the ever expanding library of Zen Studio’s produced virtual pinball tables. This collection, focusing on the ever-popular comic-turned-movie stars delivers on all levels.
Jeremy McGrath’s Offroad roars onto XBLA and PSN, but doesn’t quite manage to blow away the competition, resulting in an experience that’s streamlined but satisfying.

Unfortunately, Bang Bang Racing offers little bang for your hard earned buck…
Resident Evil’s The Umbrella Chronicles and Darkside Chronicles make their way over to the PS3 in this digital only release from Capcom. While definitely a visual upgrade over the Wii versions of the games, adding a new coat of paint doesn’t hide the flaws found in both of these light-gun style shooters.
Pokemon Conquest’s unique mix of traditional Pokemon hunting and Nobunaga’s Ambition strategy trappings results in a satisfying, and interesting mix of gameplay mechanics that shows the Nintendo DS still has a little bit of life to it.
If Theatrhythm can prove any one thing to players, it’s that Final Fantasy definitely has some of the best game music ever produced. This rhythm based game is also aided by some interesting RPG mechanics that help make for a pretty addictive experience that’s hard to put down, and serves up a nice excuse to pick your 3DS up again.
The second episode of Telltale’s The Walking Dead delivers on all fronts, continuing the tense, nail-biting horror found in the first episode. The second episode benefits from having the core cast already established, and you quickly discover there’s more horrific things in store for the group than just zombies.
DiRT Showdown’s car crashing fun is only hindered by its reliance on DiRT 3’s look, feel, and recycled racing events. Even though this feels more like an expansion pack than a full, new game, it’s hard to deny that Showdown is still a whole lot of fun.
Traveler’s Tales wastes no time in capitalizing on the DC Universe LEGO license with LEGO Batman 2. While Batman and crew are still the focal point, the expanded use of heroes like Superman and Green Lantern, along with an impressively large hub world, help make this the best LEGO title yet.
Metal Gear Solid HD Collection makes its way over to the Vita, sans Peace Walker in tow. However, despite missing 1/3rd of the original “collection”, the novelty of having MGS 2 and 3 available on the go is definitely hard to pass up.
If the amount of stuff doesn?t scare you away, you?ll be appreciating SFXT for a long while. Read on for Mike's thoughts on the PC version.
Rush on over to the PlayStation Store or your favorite retailer and check out Sony’s unique, gravity shifting action-adventure for the PS Vita.
Lollipop Chainsaw marks another unique title for the developers over at Grasshopper, and a win for people that enjoy their video games with a whole lot of humor, fun combat, and charm. A unique IP that stands out in a sea of sequels, Lollipop Chainsaw is well worth checking out.
