    Undeniably the best DBZ game to date. The fighting engine has been considerably deepened, the Dragon History mode is flawed but great, and the graphics far surpass the anime.

    Overall the production values are fantastic. It's just too bad the gameplay wasn't more sophisticated.

    Although you won't get tons of replay value out of Dungeon Siege II, you will get to spend many, many hours on your first run through with virtually no filler.

    A truly disturbing game. It's not just the look of the creatures that is designed to scare you, it's the anticipation, the unsettling ambience, the shocks and the understanding you have of the horrors that have taken place which make up the backdrop of the story.

    Control is the key to this game and for the most part the controls are set-up very well. [Chris]

    Does an admiral job of actually reproducing the feel of "virtual" go kart racing - perhaps more so than any other kart game before it.

    Though the time traveling mechanic can wear thin at times, Radiant Historia is an engrossing JRPG offering that's better than most.

    This game is cute, from the gurgly little noises the eggs make to the vibrant use of primary colors. But don't let that throw you. This game is serious fun.

    Although a few aspects are annoying, such as the inability to skip combat animations, the game offers a nice balance of complexity and accessibility and should keep gamers coming back, making it easily worth its price of purchase.

    One of the smartest, grittiest and most fun things to happen to the Cube in a long time. This game's more than a shooter, it's a way of life.

    The MLB2K series returns this year with its best incarnation yet. It may not deliver the most accurate stats or rosters such as MLB 07, but it delivers far better presentation quality, control, and realistic player animations.

    As good as the game is, this one will take time to beat no matter your skill level. There was one thing that had me a little disappointed and that was the trick controls.

    There's a good amount of gameplay involved, and it's a great showcase for the PlayStation Move controller. It's a good value for the dollar.

    You'll always be busy and it can be a lot of fun if you don't take it too seriously - just like your real life which you waste playing computer games.

    I was pleasantly surprised at how good Project: Snowblind turned out to be. It shows what you can do with the shooter premise if you have just the right amount of imagination and talented programmers to realize that vision.

    The five chapter campaign offers dozens of hours of gameplay, but I would be ecstatic with the prospect of creating my own adventures.

    The Lost Crown has a great, creepy atmosphere, and the presentation is one of a kind. Dark shadows, spectral figures, near constant mist, and chilling sounds are bound to give most folks an uneasy feeling about playing the game at night in a dimly lit room.

    Mario Kart Live: Home Circuit feels like a technology and toy that can work in the right conditions. If you have a home with a large living room or an office with some empty space, I could see you having a good time making a constrained course in a single room and racing around. The less space you have and more types of flooring, obstacles, and creativity you employ, the odds increase that you’ll be hit by constant and performance-hampering connection issues. Still, it seems like a step forward for remote control cars and like this could lead to something bigger and better down the road. For now, it’s a novelty that can sometimes feel like the best times come from using it to explore your home.

    A fun and great experience for anyone who hasn't played the game before. Anyone who's tried the game on the PC or Xbox 360 will immediately notice flaws and probably retreat to the previous versions.

    An RPG that has been streamlined, and melded with an action game to bring you the finest elements in a hack-and-slash dungeon crawl. It's got just enough depth to hold your interest without all the mess and fuss associated with some RPGs.

    It's all presented in a brilliant anime style that rivals any Saturday morning cartoon. If you like Viewtiful Joe there's a good indication you'll like this game though I'm not suggesting that it's similar in gameplay.

    2K6 is as strong as it ever was and while it might take vets awhile to get a grasp on the ProControl and other injections, it's still incredibly solid and has lost nothing from last years game.

    The Force Unleased II is a good game. However, I would be hesitant to call it a good Star Wars game. The original Force Unleashed did a good job building on Star Wars' mythos in a way that was interesting but non-intrusive. It presented a simple story that featured plenty of thematic elements seen in both the original and prequel trilogy. However, the follow-up just doesn't capture the original's spirit, and that is what ultimately holds this title back from being something great.

    Orc Lords doesn't reinvent the genre, but it doesn't have to. It keeps us busy, entertained, and challenged.

    There's a lot of fun and depth to be found here for the right gamer. Furthermore, the bargain price is a real treat! Still, not everyone will enjoy this game - it's definitely for fans of arcade shooters.

    Delivers a fun, arcade experience if you can see past the urban graffiti...This game is trying to hard to be "NBA Street" but thankfully the perspective of the gameplay has not been overlooked.

    All of the gameplay elements seem like they really belong in the game and aren't just mini-games tacked on to pad it up. For a game that's based on underwater cartoon characters, (warning: pun alert) it's got a lot of depth.

    Even though Activision hasn’t really changed much of their formula, Uprising succeeds at delivering a complete package that almost any multiplayer shooter fan can enjoy.
