If you've exhausted the library of stellar games that 2010 has already produced and are looking for something to help bridge the gap into this fall, Singularity isn't a bad choice. The gunplay is solid and there are a few memorable set pieces. It is a game ultimately limited by a lack of imagination where a neat time-manipulation idea is handcuffed to a by-the-numbers first-person shooter.

Naughty Bear could’ve been cool, but it isn’t. It’s a bad game. You shouldn’t play it.

I'm going to reiterate what I said at the beginning. If you like Green Day and Rock Band, go get this. If you're getting bored of playing fake instruments or you're just not a fan of the group, then don't expect to be won over. It's not as polished or as lovingly handcrafted at the Beatles: Rock Band, but a lot of the songs are way more fun to play. Now, if only there were more of them.

LEGO Harry Potter: Years 1-4 is a love letter to fans of the Boy Who Lived. The comedic cutscenes toying with canon, the hundreds of hidden things to find, and the general sense of a great LEGO game paired with a great series really makes this game a standout. There are still a few issues to buff out, but there’s plenty in LEGO Harry Potter: Years 1-4 to keep you coming back for more.

Where Transformers: War for Cybertron exceeded any expectations to become one of the best action games in recent memory, Cybertron Adventures is the culmination of decades of awful Transformers games and licensed titles in general. Lacking any of the charm or appeal of its license and ignoring progress in on-rails titles from the last 5 years, Transformers: Cybertron Adventures is a title to be avoided by any but the most die-hard Transformers collector, particularly when it arrives at the same time as the eminently superior on-rails shooting of Treasure's Sin and Punishment, also for Wii.

If Naval Assault had been a downloadable Xbox Live Arcade title, it would have been easy to forgive a lot of its shortcomings. Unfortunately, it’s not; it looks like a last-gen game, with some of the worst sound design and music I’ve seen in a retail release, no mid-mission checkpoints, and most importantly, not much to hold one's interest for more than a few fleeting moments. You might be tempted to pick it up for some online combat, but buyer beware -- I’m pretty sure this ship sank before even making it out of the harbor.

Hot Shots Tennis: Get a Grip is an impressive game; there’s no doubt about it. The title packs the lighthearted gameplay we know and love with tried and true time sinks such as collectables, unlockable characters, personal ranks and more. I don’t think it has the addictive hook of previous Hot Shots games, but it’s still an awesome title in its own right.

But that's pretty much that -- this is a simple, very straightforward, very limited piece of software just trying to emulate the appeal of a Hudson novelty device that never crossed the ocean to us in the States. There are a couple of extra unlockable features included, and you can also use it as a stopwatch -- but it's still only interesting for a few minutes or so. If you or a friend has always held some personal pride about your rapid-fire button-pressing skills, it might be worthwhile for you to drop a couple bucks on this download -- but, even then, I'd probably recommend hitting an import shop and grabbing one of the actual Japanese units instead (there was a new production run just a couple of years ago). For everyone else, an easy skip. Sorry Takahashi.

While it’s certainly not in the upper echelons of sports titles, International Cricket 2010 does deliver a more consistent experience out in the middle than its Ashes-branded predecessor, and its action cam does a good job of drawing you into the game – even if it does introduce a few new problems of its own. It has to be said that while the AI is indeed smarter than last year – proactively adjusting its scoring rates with the bat or bowling lines with the ball – this is a game at its best when played against a few mates on the couch, with beer and sledges flowing in equal measures. With some more refining tweaks and the acquisition of a few more licenses, next year’s game could certainly knock off Shane Warne Cricket ’99 and become the greatest cricket game of all time. As it stands this is a game that’s merely good, with the potential to be great. Kind of like the current Australian team.

Golf nuts of any level – from armchair to aspiring pros – will love what Wii team has done for Tiger Woods PGA Tour 2011. There's a lot of recycling from previous games but this year's edition does improve the experience with things like higher sensitivity controls, new camera perspectives, the Ryder Cup tournament, miniature golf, and – most importantly – online disc golf. While not a tremendous night and day difference from Tiger Woods 2010, there's still enough here to warrant an upgrade for those who leapt on the game last year. And if you haven't yet hit the links on Wii yet, this is a fantastic place to start.

Tiger Woods PGA Tour 11 sports some cool improvements that really keep it more in line with the genuine article -- at least more so than the previous PS3 and 360 efforts. Ryder Cup is a good thought, but EA Sports should have capitalized a bit more on adding such a prestigious and momentous event. As it stands, it feels a little hollow. The career and online modes have seen few changes since last year, but there are a few noteworthy deviations. That withstanding, Tiger Woods 11 has it where it counts in that the core golf is much better than it has been in some time. Now I’d just like the rest of the game to catch up.

Ben 10 Alien Force: The Rise of Hex is a waste of ten dollars. It has mundane, awkward platforming, no story context, and a strange difficulty imbalance. There are countless platformers more worth your time than Rise of Hex -- I recommend you play those.

Snoopy Flying Ace is a genuine surprise in a sea of predictable major releases this year. It's the rare licensed title that uses the property as a means to augment a rock-solid foundation of good game design and great controls to make something really special. It's a fun, hardcore action game that adults and kids alike can play together and enjoy without the weight of realistic violence, and it does so without any real compromises. At 800 MS Points, Flying Ace is a steal for multiplayer gamers.

No narrative ties down any of the missions in the Insurgency Pack, and it in no way expands upon the cooperative campaign. But hey, that's not why people play Deniable Ops, so if all you're looking for is a few new playgrounds to end some lives prematurely in, you can consider this $10 well spent. Besides, my thinking is that story would only make me think about why I'm killing people without question -- something no good stone-faced killer needs on their mind.

RUSE takes a while to warm up, but once it does, it's cracking stuff, as the game's unfailingly proper British generals would no doubt put it. The Ruse mechanics do much to breathe fresh air into the genre, allowing for a pleasing game of tank-based poker. Its faults – that slow, slow pacing and yawning, sluggish start – are largely the result of this approach, and we're inclined to forgive them for the focus on the original psychological gameplay it creates.
