There are many people who thought the Witcher could turn into a really popular gaming series, and after the success of the Witcher 2: Assassins of Kings, this is now looking more likely. The mechanics, graphics, and storyline make this game stand out as one of the finest sequels on the market.

Everything in this game had been properly considered and thought through. The characters actually had their very own personalities, which are not always clear to see on many games; a stand out favourite has to be Letho, a main antagonist who has left the path of a slayer.

The storyline has so many twists and turns but in short it follows the Witcher fantasy novels and you’re Geralt of Rivia, a monster hunter who kills extremely dangerous monsters to survive and become more powerful.

A lot has been made of the Transformer games and a lot was expected of Transformers: Prime – The Game on the Nintendo Wii. It did, however, live up to expectations and it’s gone from strength to strength on the Wii U and the Wii.

This game is not based on movies and it’s merely based on the television series, it even includes the voices from the likes of Peter Cullen, Frank Welker and Josh Keaton. The battle scenes are quite insane, and it’s designed to offer a brawlers style approach.

There are also many well thought through scenes along the way, as well as a few surprises and the idea is to complete the story by collecting artefacts for completing each mission. It’s a game that will have you hooked from the start to the finish and you can choose between your favourite characters including Thunderwing, Vehicons, Jack, Miko, Raf and Insecticons.

Farming Simulator is a game that’s proved to be more popular than some people will have expected. After all, it is only harvesting your crops in order to expand your farming enterprise, which can sound a lot like work.

This game is surprisingly fun though and players are free to grow whatever they like where they likes, and the act that you get so much control over how you want to farm is what makes this game interesting and entertaining.

One problem with the game though is the sound, and after several hours of planning you just tend to hear the same sounds over and over game, while there could have been more clips and scenes along the way to keep gamers entertained. It has proved to be a quiet success story so far, and popularity may continue to soar.

Okay so there have been 4 Tropico games so far, and it will be surprising if there wasn’t a 5^th in the near future, and if anything this island game has only improved over time. There’s nothing quite like the feel of being in control of your own island, and with each game there has been more flexibility in terms of gameplay.

The idea hasn’t changed though, and that’s what’s made this gaming franchise so popular. If you managed to stay in control of your island then you’re essentially winning but you have to keep your people happy and there are many tough decisions to make along the way. It looks likely that there will be a fifth game and it would be good to see more decisions, more people to control and improved graphics.

The swapper is set to be quite a bizarre game and it goes back to the 2D style of Gaming. You essentially control a hero who creates duplicate of himself to explore and discover life in space. The game is not set to be for those who look action shooters, and it’s quite simply a puzzle game with visually stunning surroundings and a beautiful atmosphere.

You don’t get a real sense of who the main character is, and he is simply an astronaut, while he does actually carry a gun, though it’s not the kind that will excite hard core action gamers. It may be a 2D game but it’s nothing like Super Mario Bros, and the puzzles will certainly have you stuck form time to time.

It’s a game that is designed to make you think, and at times you may well feel a little bit frustrated but that’s what all good puzzle games do. This game is looking like it will be released in May and it’s one that all space and puzzle lovers should get.

There are not a great deal of racing games on the Wii and Mario Kart tends to be the most popular. That’s all about to change though and there are talk of an retro Arcade racer game. This is likely to be a game that provides gamers that arcade racing experience, and it may not benefits from jaw dropping graphics; but that’s not necessary on the Wii, and people only need to feel a sense of speed

It’s like stepping back into time and retro racing, and it would be really good if you’re able to choose between a selection of classic cars and formula racing cars. Arcade racer games can be enjoyed solo or multiplayer, while the selection of tracks can test your handling, braking and cornering.

This is a game that is suitable for all ages, and it will be quite refreshing to see an old school racing game on the Wii for a change.

Years ago Saints Row was often compared to Grand Theft Auto but with the latest release it’s clear to see that they wanted to go in a different direction. The game is more about comedy and action, rather than a serious compelling storyline, which you’ll see on Grand Theft Auto.

There’s no doubt that Saints Row IV attracted a great deal of interest when it was released, but it certainly had people baffled when they turned to see the back cover. There are superpowers and aliens, while the previous version was merely about the life of a street gangster. You’re no longer battling the criminals in the city on this game, and you will find yourself trying to fight humanity as a whole.

Some would argue that Saints Row just went a little off track but it’s certainly worth a play if you haven’t already, and prices for this game have come down considerably.

There is not a great deal of racing games on the Wii U and Mario Kart tends to be the most popular. That’s all about to change though and the 90’s Arcade Racer will be released later this year. This is a game that aims to give gamers that arcade experience, and while it may not benefits from jaw dropping graphics; you do feel the sense of speed.

It’s like stepping back into time and retro racing, and you can choose between a selection of classic cars, including the Supercar, Stock and Formula. It’s a game that can be enjoyed solo or multiplayer, while the selection of tracks can test your handling, braking and cornering.

This is a game that is suitable for all ages, and it will be quite refreshing to see an old school racing game on the Wii U for a change.

There are many titles out there on the Nintendo 3DS today but one game that should not be overlooked is Super Street Fighter IV. This game is as ferocious as it was back in the day, and all of your favourite characters are on there.

The game just looks that little bit more beautiful in 3D but it still has the same classic qualities that made Street Fighter such a big hit. It’s still the type of game that you really have to master before you can defeat the mot difficult competitors, but once you find your winning formula, you’re guaranteed success. This 3D edition gives you the chance to master the touch screen and the controls, while it’s the perfect game to have in your pocket when you find yourself bored with some time to kill.

The only problem is that you just won’t want to put it down.

The latest release in the Assassin’s Creed game franchise has received great reviews by many. It follows the same theme as the previous versions of the game, with the focus placed on even harder assassination missions.

For those unfamiliar with an Assassin’s Creed game, the game play revolves around you, an assassin, and your missions. The goal of the game is to accomplish these missions without dying, but unlike typical games, you can be easily killed. So the main focus you should have during your gaming is on being unnoticed. You can of course fight guards who notice you, or you can try to run away and find a hiding space. You can also run up walls and jump off buildings, which can be quite fun.

The first game initially takes place with you as Desmond, the descendant of the Assassins guild. By being connected to an Animus, you begin to experience your ancestral past through your ancestors eyes. Most of the game takes place in this way, with you at some point in history.
