    An average platformer that is really difficult to recommend to anyone other than fans of Tak. It's not bad but it's not very memorable.

    Aqua Teen Hunger Force: Zombie Ninja Pro-Am will put you through four hours of gameplay, and the end result is a few amusing moments, but a whole lot more frustrating ones. Honestly, the material here would have made a better episode rather than game.

    It's not enough to pretend anymore. If you've played the last three games then you've basically played this one.

    If you've got a really, really, young tyke it might provide a few hours of fun but the novelty will be short lived for all involved.

    Extremely short, and despite the existence of choices that shape the forest, Datura isn't gripping enough for a replay.

    Other than the three or four hours of play you'll get out of Coraline, there isn't much left to be done.

    For a sim, the tracks and vehicles don't look all that great. There is a definite lack of detail on the tracks which makes you feel as though you're at a practice track instead of an actual drag race competition.

    The new additions don't add up to more than what we call an expansion pack for a PC game.

    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.

    I don't care what your friend tells you, trust me, that awkward, cumbersome, electronic behemoth may look impressive but it will be collecting dust in a few short weeks. It's like having to pilot the space shuttle to make a cup of coffee.

    Phantom Brave is a game of methodical persistence. There's very little here to reward smart players.

    Another mediocre game in a mediocre series, but is worth the time if you are an ardent, and I mean ardent, fan of RPGs and quite possibly that guy who plays DM during your friend’s Dungeons and Dragons campaign.

    I suggest we change the name of the game to "Crazy Taxi 2: Featuring Sprites That Resemble Characters From The Simpsons."

    It's like gaming through proxy, and I don't like it.

    Mojo would be an absolutely fantastic puzzle game if a few technicalities were tweaked... With more than 100 stages and a four-player mode you could certainly do a lot worse than Mojo.

    I can tell you right now that only those willing to devote a big chunk of their life to this game will reap any significant rewards from it. And by the looks of the few people online I would say that there's not too many gamers willing to devote massive amounts of time to such an experience.

    It seems obvious to me that the videogame version lost some of its excitement in the translation. Whatever the developers added to compensate just doesn't work.

    In an effort to be different from the last couple of games, it trips all over itself trying too hard not to replicate any of the old gameplay elements. The results are unnatural and ultimately un-fun.

    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.

    Despite all the glitz and glamour, the game feels hollow and void of substance.

    Online play is good as far as lag is concerned but you'll have to have plenty of patience finding games. At the end of each game you're knocked back into the lounge where you have to search for another game.

    A game with a message doesn't have to be boring, but this one doesn't work very hard to break free from the stereotype. Okabu is just a little too generic to be worth your time, which is a shame, considering I would have liked to play a fun game about saving the planet.

    It speaks volumes that when I was taking a break from reviewing RTF, I went back to my Zelda game and found myself visiting the fishing hole and enjoying it far more, even though it's not as complex as Rapala.

    Another problem that I have with the game is that enemies will respawn in empty rooms. As soon as you think you've cleared a room of enemies there will be another round of them mysteriously appearing from the ether.

    It's challenging and there are strategic elements that rival that of Fire Emblem but it fails miserably to capture the essence of the Rings movies. Basically it's a generic turn-based strategy game using the Rings in the same way that kart racers attach to various franchises.

    If I had to pick something I really enjoyed about the game, I'd have to go with the loading screens. I miss the time when games tried to keep the player busy, even in little ways, while they wait for the game to load. So yeah, there's that.

    If you locate the right audience for this one, no doubt they'll enjoy it. Just make sure you never, ever mention the console version or the jig is definitely up. The game is short as most competent gamers will make it through the 6 levels within about 5-6 hours total.

    If you're a fan of YGO then nothing I say will dissuade you from getting this game, and in a way I do feel somewhat jealous that I can't get excited about this game as some kids obviously will.

    It isn't a bad game in and of itself but as a sequel it absolutely sucks.
