I went into Valhalla Knights with high hopes including the optimism for a clean and smart online co-op multiplayer with a deep and engrossing storyline. Unfortunately I found a very broken and incomplete gaming experience.

If you have played the previous High School Musical games on the DS I believe that High School Musical 2: Work This Out! maybe a bit of a disappointment to you.

The frantic pace of the Emergency Mayhem serves up a level of enjoyment, but the initial shine and excitement wears off pretty quickly.

At the end of the day, X Blades is not a game that I would recommend for Xbox 360 gamers. For those looking for something with sex appeal or mindless button mashing, there are much better options available elsewhere.

If you are looking for the next great fishing game then Rapala Fishing Frenzy 2009 is not it.

Hannah Montana: The Movie for the DS is a game that is best served as a weekend rental; or better yet, you probably want to wait until it becomes bargain bin material.

Brave: A Warrior's Tale for the Xbox 360 is a game which will hardly please even your most casual gamer.

Although the visuals are solid, and the voice acting is strong, the confusing story, poorly localized text, and small amount of actual play versus the volumes of content you have to read all take away from what could have been a pretty cool game.

There is no doubt that FunTown Mahjong is what it is, a virtual version of 16-tile mahjong. Where my issues lie with the game is that the tutorial is not nearly as helpful as it could have been, the graphics are somewhat average, and the gameplay itself is not nearly what I expected.

Although the visuals and sound are solid enough, the gameplay fails as the racing view itself is very strange and the controls are too simplistic and too dull to make it an exciting game.

I found that In Cold Blood moved along too slowly, and the action to be far too tame in some levels, and practically nonexistent in others. The plot had huge potential but it really failed in pushing the player forward with any kind of enthusiasm.

Wonder World Amusement Park is a game that I had hoped would be good, however with sub-par graphics, varying quality of sound, and somewhat simple and repetitive gameplay, I can’t help but have difficulty recommending this game to most out there.

Overall, Fallen Champions could have been good. But I've taken a look at King Arthur: The Roleplaying Wargame, and found that this really is a bit of a stopgap game, something to keep the players happy between the first and the second. But this probably won't attract any new players, because the first missions are, with the exception of Lady Corighann's, pretty tedious, the CYOA sections could have used more work, and, there are more irritations than good points.

Unless you are die-hard Yu-Gi-Oh fanatic with lots of experience with the game or franchise, Yu-Gi-Oh! GX: The Beginning of Destiny likely won’t captivate you on any level.

Unfortunately when you consider the approximate $40.00 dollar price tag, the small song list of 11-tunes, and a single player experience you can finish in one car ride, ‘Rock Out the Show’ does not give you a lot of bang for your buck. That being said, fans of the dual personality singer will most likely love to play this game.

Overall, X-Men Destiny is a game you should avoid. It has little in the way of redeeming qualities and other than racking up some relatively easy Xbox Achievements or PlayStation Trophies, X-Men Destiny comes across as an unfinished product that will likely hit bargain bins come boxing day. Sadly, Silicon Knights' slump continues on.

Emergency Heroes is a game that does show some glimpses of hope of what it could have been, but when all the parts are taken together it just doesn’t manage to cut it.

Its substandard graphics, poor sound and simplistic gameplay make this at most, a rental title indeed.

Family Feud 2012 Edition is game many should ultimately avoid. Even the most die hard Family Feud fan will find many aspects of this game extremely frustrating. The game feels rushed, incomplete and likely should have arrived in the form of a cheap Xbox Live Arcade game. If you have a hankering for some virtual Family Feud entertainment then you may want to give this one a rent; otherwise, move along.

At the end of the day the Call of Juarez franchise has taken a giant leap back with its latest installment in the series. Problematic controls, lackluster visuals, grating voice work, and unoriginal gameplay are some of the common themes when I sit back and ponder what went wrong with this game.

None of these elements can make up for the sloppy control that destroys any attempt at fun.

Overall Mindjack would have been a decent launch title when the Xbox 360 first arrived; but at this stage in the console's life Mindjack is simply not 'up-to-snuff.' The bland and dreary visuals combined with poor audio and a less than thrilling single player mode suggests Mindjack is best left for the bargain bins.

Mediocre.

A classic example of a game that looks pretty decent of paper, but is actually horrible in application.

The problematic controls, somewhat bland visuals and forgettable sounds all lend to a game which is going to become bargain bin material sooner than one may hope.

While not a true companion to the Transformers titles released on the other consoles at the same time, TCA fails to meet its potential.

With decent graphics, and decent (if unintuitive) gameplay, there are many small flaws, but the only HUGE flaw here is the atrocious music.

Pocket Pool has many problematic areas. If you are fan of pool games, there are simply much better options available.

"Soulbringer" fails to even come close to the game that it promises. So much so that it falls well below average, well below even poor, into the pitiful category with these reviewers.

Apart from the motion capture and the commentary there are very few redeeming qualities of Sydney 2000, and it only serves to continue the tradition of bad Olympic Video Games.

Simply put, Godzilla Unleashed is a stinker.

Overall, the Dreamcast Collection is best left to the bargain bins and flea markets. While it is enjoyable to go down memory lane one last time, this Dreamcast Collection is anything but a definitive Dreamcast Collection.

Simply put, I cannot recommend Cory in the House for the DS, not even to the most hardcore fan of the TV series.

The game just doesn't work. This is hard to explain, but for whatever reason Blade simply doesn't gel properly. There is a sort of intangible loathing that emanates from it.

Hardly any gaming value period. Trust me on this one.

Developer PlayLogic’s first outing for the 360 contains a few good ideas but ultimately can’t come anywhere near even the most standard games out there today.

Unless you're a really hard-core Power Rangers' fan, I'd be leaving this game on the shelf.

The Asskickers is a fun throwback to older, more difficult beat 'em ups. It has a great art style and fun story. Unfortunately, the game is plagued by problems and glitches.

With terrible graphics, unimpressive sound, and mediocre gameplay, this game really doesn't have anything to offer. Of course, the game is capable of providing some fun, you just have to use the CD as a frisbee to experience it.

I think this game offers us far more than any other game we have seen before. Think of its functionality! Buy six and you’ll have the most fashionable coaster set a gamer could ever want!
