An excellent casual shooter that remains intense. It isn't good for hours at a time but is damned fun for months to come.

A enjoyable experience all around; while perfect for 'retro' gamers, it packs enough style to reel in newcomers as well.

One of the game's biggest achievements, however, is that it actually gets you to care about Carl and his friends - the other gang members who ride and fight with you on most missions. They all seem to have their own personalities and come across as being fully-realized characters.

A unique concept executed exquisitely, Trauma Center: Second Opinion is easily one of the strongest Wii launch titles.

DJ controls are surprisingly fun.

An amazing remake of a contemporary classic! Gamers who missed it the first time around owe it to themselves to play.

The added platforming elements may come as a shock to some, but if anything, it makes Super Paper Mario an even truer and more exceptional Mario game.

The weapons targeting system while on foot has gotten a significant upgrade from last years abysmal attempt, however targeting specific people in groups can still be problematic. Also the camera can be a bit confusing while running indoors. Overall, though, GTA:VC is a joy to play.

While it may not be perfect, its few flaws are, for the most part, covered up by its sheer immersion factor; I have never before been this drawn into a game's environment; I am literally happy just spending an hour wandering through the world of Okami, checking out the sights and doing various menial tasks - I'm ashamed to admit how much time I have spent running around in circles while barking repeatedly.

This isn't for action fans, but instead, those who are looking for an entertaining gaming experience from beginning to end.

That about does it for Metal Gear Solid 4, it's an amazing achievement for the teams that worked on it and more than lives up to being a next-generation video game.

RE4: Wii Edition is the penultimate release of a fantastic game.

It is so involving and addictive that perhaps Sony and Square Enix should consider putting a warning label on the box, something like “Caution: life altering game contained within”.

Aegis Wing is a pretty decent looking and sounding 2D side-scrolling shooter with a nice twist on co-op multiplayer. The free price tag somewhat makes up for the lack of ship variation and small number of levels.

Phoenix Wright Ace Attorney: Justice For All picks up right where its predecessor started, offering one of the best adventure game experiences available on any current console.

While Tetris DS may have Planet Puzzle League beat in terms of presentation and in the number of players that can play it, the core gameplay in this game is, in this reviewer’s opinion, the pinnacle of puzzle gaming.

A new look with classic gameplay intact makes Days of Ruin a win/win for weary Advance Wars fans, purists, as well as anyone who enjoys strategy games.

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

Multiplayer aside, this title is an outstanding display of next-gen gaming, and is easily the best Rainbow Six yet.

Despite its problems, this is an excellent example of innovation. The sheer size and scale of the adventure alone make this title worthwhile.

The experience is rounded out by a killer score. Heavy metal distortion guitars complement traditional Arabic motifs, creating a near-perfect blend of atmospheric airiness and pumped up fury.

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!

Any role playing game fan should love this game. What’s more impressive is that even non-RPG fans can find many aspects enticing.

The best handheld first person shooter on the market, the best multiplayer Metroid game, and one of the best reasons to own a DS.

Rock Band may be the perfect party game. Solo play doesn't stand on its own, but with a little help from your friends, getting the band back together is a blast.

Fans of the original Rock Band will probably find Rock Band 2 worth it both for the large new tracklist and the numerous engine improvements, while newcomers to the series will enjoy one of the most polished music game experiences to date.

If you are a fan of the Worms series, then by all means pick this one up. You will love it. If you are new to the Worms series, you might want to try one of the 2d ones first.

The long awaited conclusion to a lengthy saga; stellar graphics; awesome battles; fantastic voice acting in cut scenes.
