The included demo disk for "Tekken V" is far more enjoyable.

Nothing to get too excited about, it’s definitely no "Diablo."

The capture-the-flag mode can be rather confusing, since you'll constantly have to travel between sections in the level using teleport points that don't actually tell you where you'll end up.

A huge yawn-fest, even kids won't enjoy it for long.

You're far better off reading the book. It's cheaper, too.

The game can be fun, but it's strictly a multiplayer affair, and it needs more meat. As it stands, it feels a bit like the publishers' way to lead owners into a world of endless microtransactions.

WALL-E is a fun character and film, but while the game explores more of the movie's universe, the gameplay doesn't explore anything by familiar ground.

I'm being generous with the 3. That tells you how bad this is.

The episodes and scenes are entertaining, but there simply aren't enough of them to justify a full purchase. Pound for pound, unless you're hell-bent to perform MTV programming, Yoostar 2 is definitely a better deal.

There's bad, and there's really bad. Somehow, someway, EA has managed to eclipse both with NFL Tour. Please bring back NFL Street.

Duke Nukem Forever aspires to take gamers back to a different period in the gaming continuum. What it will really do is inspire you to take it back to the store for a full and complete refund.

The minute you discover the lack of true voice detection, all the fun is spoiled.

So there you have it, Astonishia Story, a feeble attempt by Ubisoft to bring a hackneyed tactical RPG to American shores.

Avoid boarding this ship altogether and aim for the horizon's next bright star instead.

The gameplay is what really matters, I suppose, but although the swimming motions are pretty intuitive, the ramp-up in difficulty and lack of true leveling-up render the game a bit tedious after a while. That, combined with the nagging issues above, make it hard for me to recommend Michael Phelps: Push the Limit even for the biggest of Michael Phelps fans.

So Ubi, I'd like to let you know that you've done a great job alienating a once ravenous fan.

Between those passive tendencies, the lack of strategic combat, a smattering of trite escort missions and the lack of much R in the RPG equation, the total X-Men Destiny package ends up kind of boring. It would've been nice to see Silicon Knights right its up-ended ship, but this game makes me seriously wonder if the studio's ship has already sailed.

Dungeons and Dragons: Daggerdale could have been a great title if the developers had taken the time to work out the bugs. If you're easily frustrated over games or their glitches, you most likely will be spiking your controller on the floor and walking away in bitter shame.

Unless you've always dreamed of playing as a ninja in a little red miniskirt, who just happens to also be a master at killing with a tetsugen, you should stay far away from this game. If you could make the game disk into a ninja throwing star, it would be more fun than playing Red Ninja.

It's short, shallow and not all that fun.

Sega's not alone in milking classic franchises, but Sonic is definitely one that should stay off the next-gen systems. Nothing personal; the experience just doesn't translate well.

With poor gameplay and too-strict rules for unlocking new races, this is one game Nintendo should've let die. Instead, it'll just kill you to play it.

Had this not leveraged the Ghostbusters license, we'd probably not even be talking about this game.

The hardest and most unforgiving racing game known to man, it's not even all that enjoyable for a hardcore drift racing fan. The annoying announcers are just icing on this horrible cake.

After about three levels I couldn't take it anymore and put the controller down.

About as much effort was put into making this game fun as was put into coming up with a creative title. Why anyone would pay for this is the real puzzle....

There's nothing redeeming about this game other than some decent surround-sound effects and the closing credits.

It doesn't look good, the gameplay is awkward and frustrating, and it’s basically disappointing when you think of the great PS2 and Xbox counterparts.
