    • 70 Critic Score
    An average shooter that has the ability to be great, but misses out by not using its namesake correctly.
    • 79 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Try the Mario baseball game for cute, or a more realistic MLB title for robust realism.
    • 73 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Rather than focus on a cleanly executed adventure game, the designers poorly implemented a number of unnecessary gameplay mechanics like combat and stealth.
    • 68 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Great for friends looking for a fun co-op distraction, but the repetitious play and unsatisfying solo play make it mostly undesireable for the rest.
    • 72 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Budokai Tenkaichi 2 provides an authentic Dragonball Z experience fordie-hard fans, and a decent at best fighting game for the rest of us.
    • 71 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Hardcore RPG fans that are willing to overlook Wild Arms 5’s obvious faults will likely still get enjoyment out of the title. For everyone else however, there are much better RPGs on the PS2 that are more worth your while.
    • 76 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    While you certainly won’t be disappointed with the quality of the conversions or the usability of the collection, the game's prolonged existence has almost deliberately been removed by the addition of infinite credits.
    • 60 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    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.
    • 69 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    If you’re a hardcore Guitar Hero fanatic and money and value are of no issue to you, then by all means pick up this expansion pack. Anyone else though should be advised to wait until the price drops down to a reasonable level.
    • 60 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Die hard golf gaming fans may get some enjoyment from ProStroke Golf, but there's not much here to excite the average gamer.
    • 64 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    All in all this is the best Star Trek game released so far, but that's not saying a lot. Still, Legacy is a decent effort and hovers somewhere between "good" and "average."
    • 63 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    A solid racer, held back somewhat by the failings of the original Nintendo 64 game that were carried over to this Nintendo DS port.
    • 65 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Despite its lack of visual polish and dearth of inspiring courses, it remains a viable budget alternative to more expensive games like "Burnout 3" and "RalliSport Challenge 2."
    • 68 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Puzzle fans will likely enjoy this quirky title, though others would be better off trying before buying.
    • 69 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Silent Hill and survival horror fans will like it for the most part. But if you played the original on PSP, there's not really any pressing reason to go through it again.
    • 63 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    A game high on polish, but lacking in substance and only recommended for hardcore Snicket fans.
    • 66 Metascore
    • 68 Critic Score
    Takes the staid and often haughty overtone of its titular sport and gussies it up with breast implants and potty humor.
    • 64 Metascore
    • 68 Critic Score
    Call of Duty: Roads to Victory offers the bare bones of a COD title, but the concessions that had to be made to bring the franchise to the PSP make the game something of a bore to play.
    • 72 Metascore
    • 68 Critic Score
    If you’re looking for a good DBZ fighter, go to your nearest bargain bin and pick up Budokai 3. If you’re looking for the ultimate Dragonball Z simulation game, go pick up Budokai Tenkaichi 3. Both games are cheaper and provide better gaming experiences than Burst Limit.
    • 57 Metascore
    • 68 Critic Score
    It’s got a badass main character with an interesting back story, amazing presentation values, and all of the outer makings of a AAA title. Unfortunately underneath everything on the exterior lies uninspired level designs, repetitive combat, and mostly boring gameplay.
    • 68 Metascore
    • 68 Critic Score
    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.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 67 Critic Score
    Overall, the single player game gets old pretty fast. Contrary to popular belief, it's not that satisfying to top "Allan Shortt's" score of 123. The multiplayer mode offers more entertainment for serious puzzle fans, but other gamers will probably tire of the game quickly.
    • 70 Metascore
    • 67 Critic Score
    If you’re a die-hard Cooking Mama fan, or are looking for a DS game for your 7-year-old daughter/niece who likes cooking, then I would heartily recommend Cooking Mama 2. Anyone else though would be better advised to save your thirty bucks for one of the many other good games that have come out in November.
    • 74 Metascore
    • 67 Critic Score
    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.
    • 73 Metascore
    • 67 Critic Score
    LarryBoy and the Bad Apple for the GBA is clever and fun but also far too short, and is best suited for younger/inexperienced gamers.
    • 67 Metascore
    • 66 Critic Score
    Levels are too short; controls leave something to be desired.
    • 60 Metascore
    • 66 Critic Score
    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.
    • 69 Metascore
    • 66 Critic Score
    Crash's fourth journey on the Xbox isn't as fantastic as Crash Twinsanity but at least there is some effort to put forth a quality title.
    • 73 Metascore
    • 65 Critic Score
    There are so many problems caused by pure sloppiness that it is difficult to recommend it. However, if you are willing to overlook the terrible controls and lacking extras and sub-par interface, Metal Slug Anthology can provide a very rewarding experience.
    • 55 Metascore
    • 65 Critic Score
    I liked playing this game, despite getting frequently frustrated at all of the missed opportunities and poor design choices.
