It's predictable and void of any real innovations in the platform genre.

You might enjoy watching the lengthy cutscenes and getting involved in the pondering of philosophical issues, but I've already been there and now I just want to play before I die.

While there can be no argument that Inside Drive is more sim than any other basketball game it just doesn't do it well enough for it to be fun.

The only real wrench in the works is the loose control system which makes this purple dragon a little more difficult to control than need be.

An extremely unbalanced game... forgettable.

Unfortunately the thing that matters the most, the gameplay, is seriously unbalanced resulting in a game that is all too easy at times and unnecessarily frustrating at others.

Let's not split "hares" about this game. Tiny Toon Adventures: Wacky Stackers is Puyo Pop in cheap clothing. If Mel Blanc were alive today he would probably…be old.

The cars are easy to control, the weapons are easy to launch and the tracks can be fun to navigate for a while. This isn't a bad game if you're just looking for some mindless fun to pass the time.

If you haven't already, put your money on Wario Wares Inc. It features hundreds of mini-games and no lame platform levels.

Unfortunately the trip doesn't last long before you just want to pull over and grab some shuteye.

Bottom-line: This is a game for completionists, leaderboard junkies, and glory hounds, though it should be noted that there are much simpler ways to proclaim one's video game superiority.

It's just not worth the payoff for me anymore than beating my buddies at a real game of golf is.

The passion, excitement and horrors of war elude Conflict Zone.

I will never fault a game for not being violent but that doesn't mean it should be void of fun. Even Curios George himself wouldn't find much interest in this game should ever come across it - and as we all know, he's exceptionally curious

There are some bugs which tend to drag it down to the border of un-playability. In some odd way I like the simplistic, old-school design with its pick-up-and-play controls, but I can't help thinking that it could have been so much more.

It does have its charm but it's neither a great game to play nor is it any real shakes to look at.

The gameplay mechanics hinder what could have been a decent action game. Instead it's just an average fighting and platform game.

The animation is well done and the various blows look like they actually have some impact but since nothing changes from point A to point Z, it won't matter after awhile.

It focuses too much on the Timeline gimmick but doesn't quite make it feel like a natural part of the gameplay.

It lasts just about as long as Jackie Chan movie - and you're hungry for more action two hours after that.

With its appealing cartoony visuals, funny political satire, and collection of humorous unlockable videos, Hail to the Chimp isn’t a complete bust. If it didn’t suffer from overly repetitive gameplay, ridiculously unbalanced A.I., and had a bit more variety, this game honestly could have been a lot more fun.

One thing that Ed, Edd n Eddy: Jawbreaker has going for it is the graphics. I'm not so sure that I'm in love with them but they are very unique and posses and cartoon quality seldom seen on the GBA.

There are just way too many better shooters available to make this game worth your time and money.

Although younger players may relate to the cheer camp storyline, the gameplay just isn't that fun and suffers from too many repetitive elements.

EWV is not half bad but guess what the other half is? Not good!

With a convoluted storyline that never gets off the ground this is easily the worst game in the series.

Having more memory is always a good thing. Being able to view and play Pokemon games for the GBA on the Cube is also a good thing.

The story mode clocks in at roughly three hours in length, and the Arena mode does little to add value to the package.

Suffers from an unoriginal story and uninspired gameplay.

The only thing Urban Reign will provide you with is a realistic foreshadowing of what would actually happen to you if you ever ran into a few angry dudes in a dark alley late one night. If that sounds like fun by all means go for it.

After a few day's play, a good-old fashion family fight and a uppercut to the chin becomes more and more appealing.

Unlike last years popular and more importantly, playable, "Sonic Heroes," Shadow The Hedgehog is a misstep in almost every direction.

Almost all the enemies present a similar challenge level. Consequently kill.switch becomes redundant which isn't helped by the lack of a fully realized storyline.

The motivation that drives the movie is life - staying alive. Should the game have adopted a one-life-only policy, meaning that if you're killed it's game over, it would immediately result in more tension.

Banjo Pilot smacks of contractual obligation as in "We Had No Choice But To Finish This Game and Release It...That's Why Perfect Dark Zero, Conker and Kameo Are Late....Sorry."

As far as a sequel goes, Zero 2 contains the absolute least amount of improvements for me to consider it a good sequel. It's not great, and I'm sure Capcom knows that. There's nothing here that would cause anyone to believe this game was innovative.

It's not terrible but it's so generic that I have to warn you about it.

What is missing from PsychoToxic is soul. It's not a unique game by any standards. It's a regular shooter with average graphics and sounds.

It's one of the most derivative games I've ever played. You name a puzzle game where the object is to eliminate shapes, colors or other forms by selective grouping and you are guaranteed to find some element of that game in Super Collapse II...Not to say that Super Collapse II is a bad game.

Replay value is limited. It's doubtful that the average gamer would even care to finish this game. The story is predictable so there's little incentive to complete the game just to see the conclusion.

The game could basically stay the same for years, however, what this series needs is a more comprehensive song selection. More disks, each featuring specific musical genres so that I can sing some ZZ Top and not have to skip over the Snoop Dogg crap.

The obligatory checklist of unlockables is present here, but it's not enough to really sweeten the pot. The gameplay feels like it was phoned in to the programmers by the creative team, and the overall execution is really sloppy.

The story mode clocks in at roughly three hours in length, and the Arena mode does little to add value to the package.

Bottom-line: This is a game for completionists, leaderboard junkies, and glory hounds, though it should be noted that there are much simpler ways to proclaim one's video game superiority.

Mr. Driller and Mr. Driller 2 would have made great unlockable mini -games but like Kramer, George and Elaine, it's just not good enough to make it on its own.

For all of its criminal procedural trappings, Again is about as exciting as watching Matlock re-runs in a seniors' assisted living facility.

It's all right kids, you're not a loser, this game has some unintentionally difficult hurdles to overcome. The two biggest problems are the collision detection system and the lock-on targets.

Once you level-up as far as you can go (65), you've pretty much done and experienced all that you can. There are those that continue to hand around just to inflict serious damage on weaker players, but once they receive psychological help the game will be deserted.

Thanks to the simple combat, sterile environments, and weird balancing, playing Bleeding Edge feels more grindy and repetitive than any other game I’ve played in this space. The characters are all pretty cool and weird, but when everything is zoomed out and the gameplay loop repeats itself over and over, everything just, well, bleeds together and loses its edge.

There's nothing about Tenchu: Fatal Shadows that hasn't been explored in previous versions.

It's fun for a time while you experience all its unique aspects but the Well of Fun begins to run dry after the first hour.

With its appealing cartoony visuals, funny political satire, and collection of humorous unlockable videos, Hail to the Chimp isn’t a complete bust. If it didn’t suffer from overly repetitive gameplay, ridiculously unbalanced A.I., and had a bit more variety, this game honestly could have been a lot more fun.

It's void of any scenic ambience which gives the game a sterile appearance that is also, unfortunately, reflected in the gameplay.

I could see lots of anglers trying their hand at this game if it were installed in the local bait & tackle store but I can't see many gamers getting much replay value out of it at home.

The obligatory checklist of unlockables is present here, but it's not enough to really sweeten the pot. The gameplay feels like it was phoned in to the programmers by the creative team, and the overall execution is really sloppy.

Kinect Star Wars isn't the worst Kinect game I have ever played, nor is it the worst Star Wars game I have ever played. It's just depressingly mediocre.

The SNES port looks great, it really comes to life on the GBA but the NES levels are embarrassing. This Frankenstein piece-together must have been getting the bum's rush out of the lab and into the stores in time for the Christmas cash grab.

Combat has been simplified to having less depth than most new arcade games. Strategy and tactics have been reduced to using a more effective weapon against an enemy taking into account its shield, size or weaponry.

I hope that you have learned much and that your journey through Way of the Samurai 2 is filled with wonderment and awe - but unless you're sniffing gas there's no chance of that.

Offers a virtually perfect version of the puzzle game that was hugely popular in the arcade over two decades ago.

It doesn't require much thinking but since CSI has been doing the thinking for viewers for so many years maybe the majority of the game players will require this level of babysitting.

I think the developers have cloaked a budget title into the guise of a full priced affair, which is way worse than some thug stealing a dude's wallet. Watch out Universal Vivendi....you could be the subject of the Predator's next rampage.

It's just a good-old fashioned shooter that's heavy on the action and light on story or depth.

While in some respects the game is interesting, it's just not cohesive enough to provide a solid gaming challenge. The puzzles are arbitrary and consist of a lot of virtual walking with little in the way of directions.

The developers and movie studios should get together on these kinds of projects. The games always get the crappy end of the stick.

The average gamer will probably lose interest in a couple of hours.

This DLC is like canned espresso: small, disposable, and absolutely forgettable.

Dynasty Warrior 5 should be called Dynasty Warrior 2-and-a-half. I would expect more advancement from a franchise with four sequels.

A charming tale that's probably not worth playing through. The dated gameplay and stiff controls just don't do the tongue-in-cheek storytelling justice. Most players will become quickly bored with this title, though there may be enough allure in the setting for genre veterans to suffer through the action.

This DLC is like canned espresso: small, disposable, and absolutely forgettable.

Classic British Motor Racing is a title that most people should avoid. It does not provide a satisfying racing experience, and it does not provide any real satisfying gameplay elements.

Super Dodgeball Brawlers is little more than a nostalgia trip, but it's a short trip, so there's no reason to pack your bags.

This entire control system is nothing but a novelty. Some will disagree but the way this game is constructed, I had more fun playing "MechAssault."

With its revamped controls and tighter focus on growing your custom wrestlers in MyCareer, WWE 2K20 has a lot of good ideas propping it up. Unfortunately, the game is propped up on top of an uncharacteristically weak foundation. WWE 2K20 is an ugly video game, with gross-looking noodle hair, weird character faces, and PS2-looking NPCs. Add to that a lengthy MyCareer story fueled by corny and sloppy writing, and you get a game only the dedicated parts of the fanbase will love. At its core, there is still a great deal of fun in playing WWE2K20, but the technical issues, poor visuals, and bad writing make this year an easy one to skip, especially if you’re still playing through WWE 2K19.

It’s got a long way to go, and I haven’t even ragged on the fact that there are no multi-player modes. I may not be so nice when it comes to Volume 2. Average. At best.

It's a shame a series that offers as much as Battlefront does has sullied its name with a subpar release like this on a system that can't handle what the Battlefront games are all about.

I hate to see a series like Mega Man degenerate into some kind of Pokemon rip-off. At this point, Mega Man doesn't even have the credibility of Yu-Gi-Oh, in my opinion.

A poor imitation of a solid RPG. It plays like a knock off. On one hand I'm glad to see that Digimon is changing its direction but on the other hand I have a finger that can't wait to press the Off button.

Unless you're a hopeless fan of the series and you're excited by the novelty of playing out an episode of the show during its classic phase, then I can't stop you. The rest of you should note that this is just an average game with very few highlights.

As a sequel to Beyond the BattleBox, this game not only fails to stake new territory for the series but it refuses to move out of its parent's house.

Shows the intricate side of warfare and all the frustration that goes with such as undertaking.

The game has some pretty cool features, even though many of them are old hat at this point. Overall, the package feels slapped together - more a proof of concept than an actual game. The location of most save points is sure to be a source of frustration for most folks, and ultimately, it's a game that begs to not be played.

The 3D world has too many technical flaws, most notably with the camera angles.

To be blunt, the problem with Joan is that it incorporates elements of three genres, action, RTS and RPG which are not very well blended. It's like a stew in which you can taste all of the ingredients individually.

Even though I have a terribly high tolerance for bad monster movies, I still couldn't find an excuse for Aliens: Colonial Marines. The game has been in development for over five years, and nearly every single component has some major flaw. It's yet another black eye on a franchise that's already taken a heavy beating.

It focuses too much on the Timeline gimmick but doesn't quite make it feel like a natural part of the gameplay.

My complaints stem from the control system. It's unresponsive, causing timing delays that require you to choose your actions well before they actually appear onscreen making this more of a game of strategy than reflex.

If you've got last year's version of Madden NFL, then you don't need this one. It's so disappointing to see such little improvement in this series.

I expected this game to revolutionize the virtual pool market, but in the end, it proves that there is nothing new in the world of virtual pool and for the best pool game, you should just play the real deal.

I would recommend checking out a walkthrough just to get to the first mission because if I didn't have to review this game the disk would have ended up smashed on the other side of my office in the first fifteen minutes.

The only really addicting quality to the game are the upgrades.

The sense of freedom and discovery is lacking regarding the application of unique abilities.

A simple Playstation 2 port for the PC. It doesn't stack up against PC games 4-5 years ago in nearly every category.

Just flying around in MiniCopter can be mildly amusing, but the limited missions and interactivity, stale environments, and frustrating recharging mechanic will inevitably leave you disappointed with your experience.

The dull plot and repetitive game play can get boring after you play it for a couple of hours. The only true replay value this game has is with multiplayer because it has no online support.

If you’ve already played the first two games, there’s not much point in playing this one.

A weak in the knees one button beat-em-up that has absolutely no teeth. The fighting engine is so watered down that only geeking Marvel fanboys will elicit any enjoyment out of spending any time with it.

The game is as hollow as the sentiments behind it. More attention should have been paid to the innerworkings of the game rather than securing the toy rights and shopping the concept around to make a major motion picture.
