“The only game that’s kept my attention recently is ‘Alice: Madness Returns.’ It’s a dark turn on the already demented ‘Alice in Wonderland’ fable. Normally, I’m not into things that are gothic or pointlessly macabre, but this game is awesome. The art direction is extremely cool.
“I love the quirkiness and comedic sense. It’s got lots of puzzles, if you’re into that sort of thing. If you’re into games like ‘Darksiders,’ ‘God of War,’ ‘Crash Bandicoot’ or ‘Spyro,’ you’ll find something to like in this game.”

“Since I want to be the very best, like no one ever was, I have been playing the new Nintendo DS game called ‘Pokémon Black Version 2.’ Its predecessor, ‘Pokémon Black Version,’ is a game with a complete set of 156 all-new Pokémon to catch.
“‘Pokémon Black Version 2’ has a brand new storyline that takes place two years after the first ‘Pokémon Black Version’ does. You can catch a grand total of 300 Pokémon from across all five generations of Pokémon games, leaving you with 349 Pokémon left to get through trades with your friends, or through other games.
“With my team of Umbreon, Ampharos, Lucario, Azumarill, Serperior and Volcarona, I know that I will take down the game’s antagonist, Team Plasma, defeat the elite four and the champion and inevitably, catch ‘em all.”

“‘Spyro Ripto’s Rage:’ My childhood — fly around and torch people.”

“‘Borderlands 2’: The ultimate combination of guns, loot, skill, awesome storyline and crazy enemies. This sequel was everything I wanted it to be and more, being a mix of ‘Halo,’ ‘Call of Duty’ and ‘Fallout’ with an amazing creative twist. I only have one thing to say: can’t wait for the next Pandorian adventure.
“‘Pokémon Black 2 and White 2’: The sequels to the first 5th Gen Pokémon games, it takes things to a whole new level, having a better storyline, animation and variation of Pokémon. If you have any love for Pokémon, play this game.”
