Odama is a colorful and intriguing concept in theory, but in practice is nothing short of being a rather poorly conceived pinball game that lacks the physics of a real pinball machine, coupled with some awkward moments in which you must move your troops via voice commands.

The boss battles will have you shrieking in frustration. Not that they are very difficult mind you, it's just that they seem to drag on much longer than they should.

With it's focus on dungeon crawling, this is a diversion that you'll want to return to again and again — and believe me, there are a lot of Pokemon waiting to be rescued!

Aedis Eclipse isn't the greatest SRPG you'll ever play, but it is certainly still one of the most complex.

If you absolutely must have a Sudoku game for your Nintendo DS, I'd recommend buying a copy of "Brain Age," even if it only contains one hundred puzzles. Sudoku Gridmaster is a decent game, but its problems outweigh any positives it offers.

The story is bland, but on the contrary, the writing is intelligent, well-localized and entertaining more often than not. The gameplay doesn't stray very far from the norm, but the content does.

The developers were a bit too ambitious with the project and crammed in far too many gameplay styles, none of which are terribly exciting. This game is an injustice to the phenomenal TV series.

Omit every female jiggle, every thong and leg split, all you are left with is a mediocre game with so-so online play.

Though the game still falters a little bit with spelling acceptance and variations, the overall additions that have been made are solid and easily make the game a lot of fun to play.

Commandos is mildly entertaining, adds a few twists to the gameplay that are a bit refreshing, but ultimately falls short.

The gameplay itself is nothing more than a fancied up button mashing tournament with a sense of claustrophobia so apparent, you'll be looking to open a window after the first ten minutes, just for some fresh air. Maybe this game should have been entitled, Viewtiful Joe: Cabin Fever Combat.

It's a very social game. This isn't a game where you'll be talking crap back and forth, nor is it a game where you'll be taking commands from a squad leader. It's a social event/game which is a lot of fun.

Graphically, this game isn't so much old-school as it is retirement home.

In the end Blacksite is at times a fun shooter, but in a gaming landscape where games like Halo 3, Orange Box and Bioshock are currently available, Blacksite does little to make itself stand out.

With the exclusion of an online mode the game suffers another hit – as the online mode was reportedly and understandably one of Auto Modellista redeeming qualities.

The game’s storyline and Demon collecting aspect more than make up for these SNES shortcomings, providing gamers with an entertaining, albeit dark RPG.

With over 90 levels of park building fun, tons of rides (building rollercoasters is fun), and thousands of little things to do, Rollercoaster Tycoon is a must have title for any sim lover... or any game lover!!

Even for a puzzle fiend such as myself, I can't see myself playing Gunpey ever again. It just doesn't have that intangible addictive quality that makes up a great puzzler.

But short of rabid fans, I can't see anyone getting more than an hour or so of amusement out of this title.

As opposed to the DS version of the game, Cooking Mama on the Wii is a mess and something that is often very hard to enjoy, especially for the younger crowd. The Wii sensitive controls don't work well and even when they do, there will always be one or two parts of a recipe that you'll maul because of those rogue elements.

It's even more infuriating that almost every major issue with the game could have been resolved with very little effort. Save points, more massive battles, less dull boss encounters... the list goes on and on.

Frogger is still charming and still gives you that queasy nervous feeling when you suddenly realize how much of a challenge it is you're eventually facing.

It is meant to be amusing, tongue and cheek, and simply fun — NOT a racing simulation in any way shape or form.

An exercise in mediocrity. The visual and aural presentation is great, but the single player game is riddled with moments of sheer tedium and you'll soon find yourself in situations you've seen over and over again. It's beyond repetitive and lacks any real fun factor.

With it's fine blend of chess based tactics and action, the game is a total delight.

When you unleash a game that plays like it was developed after too many martinis, well then that's just downright criminal.

Overall, Stacked is a great poker game that could have been better. Granted, that would have meant more delays, but the overall package is well worth the price.

Essentially a platformer with added elements of a first person shooter. This style gives the player a nice change from the norm, but has an unrefined feel.
