    Battle of Giants: Dragons is a pretty tight package, but it's presented with little consideration for the player. The gameplay is absurdly obtuse, with objectives that amount to little more than slowly meandering through uneventful levels and engaging in battles that yield little reward.

    Madagascar Katz is a perfectly solid kart racer, and it is definitely not the "cash-in" that I was expecting it to be. Though parents and young kids will probably pick this title up based on its name alone, they are actually in for a treat, as the game behind the license is actually quite good. Although the game's difficulty may be a turn-off for some younger or inexperienced players, I found the game as a whole to be very refreshing.

    Good FPS but not worth full price. Limited replay value.

    Perhaps multiplayer competition between DSi owners would have been just the thing this one needed.

    The game's quite easy to start with, because they give you the ladders you need, but it can get pretty frantic after a while, especially if you manage to unlock the other difficulty levels (there are four).

    The controls in this Domo game are a bit more complex than in the other ones, though that's a good thing because it allows you to do what should be done.

    he game also includes a mixer to practice songs, but the buttons to change venue, tempo, and difficulty didn't exist on my copy of the game, so I couldn't even try this out. Weird!

    This game isn't particularly fun compared to Hard-Hat Domo, Pro-Putt Domo, or even Crash-Course Domo, but if you must have the collection, it's also not that bad.

    The Secret Saturdays: Beasts of the 5th Sun will not revolutionize the cartoon to video game market. However, it does do something that tends to be rare with these games - it delivers on the experience fans have come to expect.

    It's still possible to have fun racing in this game, but given the steep learning curve and plethora of other Wii racing options, there's no answer to the question of, "Why bother?"

    Repetition is the biggest enemy here. It's not a bad romp, if you have the patience.

    Chaotic: Shadow Warriors is mostly solid, but uninteresting and repetitive gameplay, along with an overall lack of polish, make it a lackluster experience difficult to recommend to fans.

    With only a small selection of mini-game events and options, families aren't likely to get much value out of Playmobil Circus.

    It's a really short adventure, and though the various elements are all really well polished and fun, they're also way overused. The entire experience feels very formulaic.

    MLB 2K10 is a decent game, and I almost want to tip my hat to 2K for including PS2 owners in their line-up. But the core mechanics aren't innovative; certain elements of the gameplay are cut back too much, while others are convoluted and unintuitive.

    Whether you're paying $5 or $9.99, this is a worthwhile buy, providing hours of fun and lots of play options.

    Not only is the price outrageous for the amount of game you're getting, but the game you're getting is absolutely terrible.

    If you can get a group of friends to partake of the Ad Hoc multiplayer mode, you will generate a bit more enjoyment from the game listening to your friends freak when they can't control their Core. Misery loves company.

    Entertaining for a few short hours at best.

    For puzzle gamers who want to test their reflexes and are on tight budgets -- especially small kids who can't handle more complicated tasks -- it's a decent buy.

    Although collecting monsters with the camera can be confusing and tedious, the battle system is rather good. Being able to fight and trade monsters with a friend wirelessly is also a welcome addition.

    Though the Xbox 360 version does have a more organic-feeling control system , avatar integration, and a lower price point, if you consider yourself a PC-only gamer, you should definitely check this one out!

    The tone of the story is, after all, quite a departure from the franchise's previous two outings. However, the amusing dialogue, fun gameplay, and delightfully absurd missions make this a must-buy for everyone, whether by download (in which case it requires a copy of GTA IV to run) or on disc with The Lost and Damned.

    The sheer amount of content in The Lost and Damned is truly impressive considering its modest twenty dollar asking price.

    It's a really short adventure with very few trimmings. Multiplayer, however, is a big plus for the game.

    It's a nice little diversion, one that adds a decent twist to an old classic arcade game. Sometimes being a reasonable time-waster is all that a game needs to accomplish.

    A strategic and deep game lies beneath a simple and casual game despite the lack of story-driven gameplay. The lack of an active online player base makes finding online matches difficult.

    There's basically nothing to keep you coming back. The inclusion of Download Play is nice, but likely will rarely be used.

    The adventure is over in a flash, and though DGamer is still one of the strongest social networks on DS, it hardly makes the ends meet.
