    The episode's final chaotic moments are certainly clever and comical, but the drab, anticlimactic conclusion deflates the fun.

    It's lengthy while not particularly exciting or fun.

    Marvel Vs. Capcom 2 delivers on the most important level: giving fans what they want.
    • 44 Metascore

    Just like the first entry, this one doesn't try to escape from the simple button mashing, combo street brawler.

    Even the game's most tedious moments will offer a good measure of entertainment for strategy gaming fans, though a number of issues may eventually have you questioning whether it's worth sticking with in the long run.

    Bionic Commando is an interesting single-player experience many gamers are likely to enjoy. Disappointingly, the multiplayer experience is entirely forgettable, and not all of the wonderfully tacky elements of the series were well translated this time around.

    Single-player modes galore, multiplayer action, unlockable bubble and arrow designs, and tight controls make this game very addictive and entertaining.

    The shooting, platforming, and boss encounters are all enjoyable, but the game is incredibly short. It's also a very conventional formula that plays out a bit too simplistically.

    Launch of the Screaming Narwhal offers some of the best adventure gaming we've seen in some time, even topping Telltale's recent quality releases.
    • 53 Metascore
    • 64 Critic Score
    The game can be a lot of fun, but its many flaws detract from its playability. There are multiple endings for those who play through more than once, though.

    Wii Sports was a must for Wii owners, as anyone could pick up and play those games. Wii Sports Resort is also very fun to play with people, and it's an added experience with new games, more precise controls, and good ol' Wii Bowling and Golf.

    If you like online play, King of Fighters does it extremely well. However, with only one single-player offline mode, this title feels a little empty overall.

    Shatter is a refreshingly unique take on a classic genre. The visuals, music, and gameplay combine to provide a simple yet engrossing experience that will please casual and old-school gamers.

    This game could have probably used a custom level editor to create your own levels, but as an arcade game that just costs 800 MS Points, you really couldn't ask for a whole lot more. The most important thing is the game is fun, imaginative (to a certain point), and contains a good sense of humor and a quirky protagonist.

    This lengthy, challenge, and utterly adorable title has great potential to bridge the gap between different audiences on the Wii. It's easily one of the best games on the system so far this year and one you absolutely won't want to miss.

    Despite my initial trepidation about a shooter-style kid-movie tie-in, G-Force actually manages to be a competent game that goes beyond the tried and true platforming format.

    There has been some real love injected into this game, and fans of the movie, as well as action-adventure-loving Wii owners, probably shouldn't miss it.

    There are plenty of levels to explore, and though the story is not as intriguing as My Life as a King, the tower defense structure is much more replay-friendly.

    Badman is ultimately a game that will only appeal to those gamers who will be able to fully appreciate its wonderful sense of humor and intense difficulty.

    The inclusion of Dragon Spirit and Xevious Resurrection keep things feeling fresh, but they're not substantial enough to get gamers excited.

    The game only lasts about 5-6 hours, and many will find what's on offer exceedingly dull. Still, point-and-click fans and puzzle-adventure buffs should really enjoy it.

    If you like third-person arcade shooters, and you have found yourself getting board with the relative dearth of gameplay opportunities this summer, take a look at Madballs in… Babo: Invasion - you'll be glad you did.

    There are tons of great options, right down to the ability to play ball as school mascots. The Road to Glory is a great premise, though it's also admittedly shallow and repetitive. In the end, however, EA Sports threw in everything, including the kitchen sink.

    Serious Nancy Drew followers won't be disappointed by her latest mystery adventure. Her Interactive is definitely on the right track, but there's still further to go to make this series shine to all but the most devout players.

    If you're planning a road trip and have always loved the dry tales of this particular mystery-solving savant, then perhaps it's worth a rent. For everyone else, hang tight until the release of the next Professor Layton.
