    Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon: Breakpoint
    In the end, Tom Clancy’s Ghost Recon: Breakpoint never finds its groove. There are so many different things to do that you would think that there’s something in this game for everybody, but that’s not really the case. Instead, most things just feel pointless or function as a distraction from its core gameplay, which is already a composite of disparate elements. In a way, Ghost Recon: Breakpoint is like listening to rock, jazz, and reggae, only you’re doing all these things at the same time, none of the albums are that good to begin with, and the end result is a confusing cacophony of noise that is far less than the sum of its parts. You’d be better off participating in a more focused experience.

    Need for Speed ProStreet
    Not having any online play also hinders this title, but it most likely wouldn't have helped much considering all of its other issues. If you are looking for a great and enjoyable racing experience, you should definitely look elsewhere.

    Kersploosh!
    A watered-down (no pun intended) stone-tossing experience that isn't even worth its $2.99 price tag.

    Dead Island: Riptide
    Riptide is much like the zombies it portrays. It meanders about, bumping into everything, and occasionally it finds some meat to sink its teeth into. Then it slowly moves on to find the next scarce meal. Missing some parts, it shambles around, a mindless, and feral creation. Too bad.

    Conflict: Global Terror
    The single player game will hold your attention and you'll get more mileage out of it if you play on the harder difficulty settings, but the real secret to milking everything out of this one is the online co-op mode.

    Dragon's Lair 3D
    Control is the key to this game and for the most part the controls are set-up very well. [Chris]

    MicroBot
    MicroBot's baseline gameplay isn't revolutionary, but for an arcade shooter, it's not bad. Might be worth a trip just for the aesthetics, depending on how much like the genre.

    Heatseeker
    The tacked-on motion-sensing controls that are supposed to give you precise control of your plane only result in making playing through the game an exercise in frustration.

    Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs
    The fun 8-bit plot scenes and gadget based levels offer kids plenty of fun gameplay, and the option of co-op play and collection quests make this an easy choice for older kids to really get into. However, the short gameplay time and repetitive vocal and graphical elements of the title make it a bit hard to recommend at a $50 price point.

    BlackSite: Area 51
    If you're looking for a ground-breaking experience or a robust selection of multiplayer modes- BlackSite's don't offer much more than a weekend distraction--this isn't it. However, if you find the idea of fighting aliens in your own backyard appealing, you won't do better than BlackSite's relatable, the-truth-is-out-there experience.

    Escape From Paradise City
    Escape from Paradise City thrusts players into a dynamic gaming experience they won't soon forget. Some story elements may feel too common or even cliché at times, yet the high level of play control, enthralling locations, superb visual detail, and role-playing elements are some of the best we've seen lately. On the whole, the game knocks you to the curb, kicks you in the teeth, and makes you love every second of it. It's violent, sexy, and highly recommended.

    Heroes Over Europe
    Multiplayer modes are limited, though the dogfights and team battles for up to 16 players are still quite fun. It's satisfying taking down an enemy plane when you know there's a human cursing you out from his burning cockpit on the other end.

    Wildlife Park
    There's just enough depth to this game to make it challenging to newbies and novices. If you're a "Roller Coaster Tycoon" fanatic you will find the gameplay much too similar to hold your interest.

    Hot Wheels Stunt Track Challenge
    There's nothing so captivating about this game that a rental can't dispel. It's too bad you can't rent games by the minute.

    Metal Torrent
    The best thing that I can say about Metal Torrent is that it's a great space shooter with a huge bite taken out of the middle.

    X2: Wolverine's Revenge
    If I had a chance to play this during the years I was a complete Wolverine fanatic I would have passed out from pleasure overload. No kidding... This is the one of the finest comic book games to date.

    Tork: Prehistoric Punk
    This won't appeal to the hardcore but younger gamers will love the look and feel of this easy to pick up and play, visually appealling game. Just watch out for the tough spots!

    LEGO City Undercover: The Chase Begins
    With so many great games available on the 3DS, there's no reason for gamers to subject themselves to this under baked, disjointed, and sometimes tedious experience.

    DreamWorks Shrek Forever After
    The story mode is long enough to capture the attention of most young gamers, and for the ambitious players, there are some secondary collection quests to explore.

    DreamWorks Madagascar: Escape 2 Africa
    Heck, even those that are an older audience will have a hard time faulting the game, for its presentation and scope of gameplay are quite nice.

    DemiKids: Light Version
    So much of this game is derived from Pokemon that it's shameless.

    Addicting. It operates on many levels. Not only to you have to think fast but you have to plan in advance. I think that most gamers will be amazed at just how many words they can think of when pushed to the limit.

    RollerCoaster Tycoon
    The Xbox version is as close to the original as possible but the sloppy execution of accessing the interface is hampered by the limited control system.

    The lack of speed is actually an interesting concept because you can use some strategy when controlling your vehicle.

    Travel Games for Dummies
    Travel Games For Dummies is a very good game for business travelers and casual gamers. Combining classics like Sudoku, Solitaire, and Crosswords together was a grand idea. Moreover, the addition of clearly taught strategy lessons to the mix is a great way for teaching or improving your knowledge of these games, and it helps to differentiate this title from other brain games out there.

    Ultimate Spider-Man
    Certainly the GBA version pales in comparison to the freedom of the console versions and the graphic chutzpah of USM on the DS, but it's still an enjoyable title that will pass the time.

    Leisure Suit Larry: Magna Cum Laude
    You won't get the Full Monty here but you'll see a lot of T &A. The language itself is very explicit and you'll find yourself shocked into bouts of laughter at some of the things that come out these characters' mouths. The voiceacting is darn good and interestingly enough the characters, especially the girls, have more depth to them than you would expect.

    Splatterhouse
    If you're a fan of slasher films and all-around gory themes, then you'll have a blast if you can look past the lack of polish. Previous fans of the franchise will love it. Newcomers, be wary if you strive for perfection out of your games.

    Warriors Orochi
    This is a simple hack-and-slash game. By its very nature it's repetitive. By hinting at more depth with weapon upgrades, 79 playable and combinable characters with upgradable attributes, and a two-player mode, I think it's the developer's responsibility to fully realize these features and implement them in the gameplay. Otherwise don't tease us.

    NHL 2K11
    Once you get a hang of the new controls, there's a ton of content here, though most of it is taken directly from the franchise's previous installments.
