A very good boxing game that doesn’t quite score a knockout, but definitely something you would want to watch on pay-per-view.

I would rather be subjected to a week long insurance seminar with Enya music in the background than play this game again, ever.

Overall this is a really solid game that has the potential to be so much more. Unfortunately the repetitive missions and ho-hum gameplay hold it back.

While it really doesn’t bring anything new to the genre, Tales of Legendia is an excellent RPG worthy of any RPG fan’s time.

Deadly Silence manages to exhume possibly some of the most memorable aspects of the series, while fine-tuning the experience with some intriguing DS-capabilities. However, its control method and outdated visuals can prove frustrating at the best of times for newcomers to the series.

A good, deep baseball game with plenty of options to challenge the most extreme college fan.

For veteran RPG fans, it’s a typical RPG with a few fancy innovations so many won’t be as impressed. But if you want to save the world from havoc (again), here’s your chance.

The environments (indoor and outdoor) all scream for you to search through them all and see the effort put forth to create this fantastic game.

An amazing, if in some ways generic, RPG that should easily please almost everyone. It is definitely one of the best RPG’s of this year, if not the best.

Sadly, Activision’s second installment in the True Crime series is a big disappointment that begins with the storyline and ends with almost everything else.

As wrestling games go it’s fairly solid and will be loved by fans and generally accepted by everyone else.

New features improve on the game and while I wish there were more varied songs offered from the start, this is probably the best Karaoke Revolution game to date.

If you can't get enough karaoke gaming, then Karaoke Revolution Party is the perfect remedy, with many new and great features to keep you coming back for more.

If this game spawns sequels and the locations and gameplay options are expanded, we could have the Wild West equivalent of the "Grand Theft Auto" series on our hands.

Although not perfect, Karaoke Revolution Party is a solid game for those looking for a good multiplayer title.

Everyone should try this game at least once. If you’re not smiling by the end of playing your first tune there’s something wrong with you.

The combination of good graphics; great sound and intense action makes for a very immersive game that will be hard to put down.

It’s a game with a good idea but too many flaws in its execution to be very enjoyable.

It doesn't push the genre into new territory, but the single player campaign is a blast.

Konami needs to go back and re-think the direction of this series. A somewhat disappointing hardcore hack and slash game for fans of pure action.

If played for too long, I found the game to be rather tedious and repetitive, but in short busts (about one mission per seating, I would say) the game can provide fun.

On a pass or fail review system, this fails horribly. If this was a child’s homework assignment, you could easily tell they put this together right before class started.

Quite simply, Sniper Elite is one of the finest World War II era shooters that I have ever played.

Pass gas to stun your opponents, eat human brains, roll your own head around like a bowling ball, and use your own guts as a grenade in this great new action game.

An enjoyable game with easy difficulty and short levels.

On the charge of being an excellent adventure game on the DS, Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney is declared guilty as charged.

Castlevania: Dawn of Sorrow is easily one of the greatest the series has to offer, building on the excellence of the GBA outings while maintaining the level of quality expected since the series' first debut 20 years ago.

Better than all previous offerings, an awesome football experience, but still not quite on a par with "Pro Evolution Soccer."

This is an average-at-best game, better than many for kids and Wallace & Gromit fans should at least give it a look, but there’s nothing here that you can’t live without.

It can take some time to get used to the game's controls, because they are so different than other games on the market. This can be frustrating.

An enjoyable game, but it offers few new features. It doesn't quite live up to the standard set by games such as Metal Gear Solid and Splinter Cell. There are no major problems with the game, but no major breakthroughs either.

A highly addictive game with a nice variety of environments and objectives, a hilarious storyline and truely bizarre characters. Get into it!

Although it's technically a fine game, if you own the original, there's not much reason to purchase WWE Day of Reckoning 2.

While it could have been interesting with proper development, it is instead a forgettable title that is probably not even worth the cost of a Blockbuster rental.

Fun, casual gameplay, a real sense of raising a pet and the ability to make friends through bark mode makes this game a universal hit for both young and old.

While not the classic SRPG that Disgaea was, Makai Kingdom is right up there with the best of them and is a must-own for any fan of the genre!

Takes the staid and often haughty overtone of its titular sport and gussies it up with breast implants and potty humor.

Kids and adults will find themselves frustrated with bad camera angles and dimwitted Oompa Loompas.

The complete package - high replay value, amazing graphics, and more realistic gameplay make this a superstar hit.

The combat is fabulously old school, and when stacked against traditional 2D fighters, King of Fighters Maximum Impact easily holds its own.

A solid, traditional platformer made extraordinary through immersive narrative, a whimsical setting, and sheer creativity.

A cute, violent and funny action platformer. It's not serious, realistic, logical, or politically correct. It's just fun. Plain and simple.

A good game based on a movie. It's no Riddick but it certainly entertains and is designed for fans of the film.

Newcomers to the genre who want a light-hearted golf experience will appreciate the game’s intuitive gameplay mechanics. However, those desiring a more in-depth golf experience may not find it here.

On a fundamental level, there is nothing wrong with Pac-Pix. Where it falls apart is just the fact that it doesn’t provide enough substance. It feels like exactly what it is – a stretched-out tech demo.

No other RPG released this generation could match up to Jade Empire and I am glad Bioware had the balls to go through with the game.

Fails to deliver chills and thrills. It relies heavily on a clunky interface and an outdated camera system, and ultimately doesn't stand up to the competition.

A must have for two audiences: those who have been looking for a game that lets you play around with a virtual version of an illegal substance, and those who enjoy a great puzzle game that takes a lot of skill to master.

Lego Star Wars is the perfect rental game: it's short, it's fun, and it's got a great multi-player mode. It is too short and too easy, though, to warrant a purchase.

Id Software and Vicarious Visions have painted a hellishly beautiful portrait with graphical nuances that illustrate just how much effort went into the console version.

Levels are too short; controls leave something to be desired.

A superbly designed and executed action adventure game that is among the finest ever made.

Minus a slightly slow difficulty progression, Ridge Racer is a great bit of fun to play through. With great control, amazing graphics, and a kick-ass soundtrack, it is by far the most enjoyable of the launch titles.

A true gem among the PSP launch titles, among handheld puzzle games, and among video games in general.
