The story itself is pretty good and is even more fantasy based than before (the first three Onimusha games actually had more historical basis to them), though it does suffer a little bit from lack of clarity every now and then. [JPN Import]

You can take out numerous cars well within the first lap, boosting the entire time, only to discover a half a lap later, they're all right back on your tailpipe.

While so much has been improved over DW, it's not all roses and sunshine. SW still suffers from some fundamental problems handed down from the game's lineage.

Though the single player experience could have been longer, it still provides many hours of enjoyment; especially of you're on a mission to get the best score in every fight.

The pacing can become frenzied, as with any puzzle game, but once you've created that zen puzzle experience, you'll more than likely be able to really breeze through the game.

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.

There are a lot of things that do pay homage to the original, but this is a shoddy game that lacks polish or any of the simplistic fun offered up by the original.

Though the controls, plot and soundtrack remain unharmed, the frequent and long load times, coupled with the incredibly odd presence of slowdown, cripple the title to the point of not being entertaining at all.

What little action there is to see is so far out of your controllable scope that you'll watch the battles simply to delude yourself into thinking there is something worth watching in the game.

Long on hype but short on depth, Black travels an already well worn bullet riddled path taken by so many other games, albeit much louder than the rest.

The beautiful, hand-drawn sprites are incredibly rich in color and detail and the animations only add to the overall charm.

Sonic is back for yet another racing inspired adventure that is plagued with annoyances the likes of which will more than likely drive you mad out of pure frustration.

A marvelous game with a few minor flaws that don't really kill the experience. With a lovable cast, mouth-watering graphics, and an innovative battle system, Grandia III is an excellent addition to any RPG aficionado's collection. [JPN Import]

The first Drakengard recieved a cult following more on story than anything else and the tradition continues with D2. Featuring some very dark and mature themes that are even a bit disturbing at times.

A puzzle game wrapped in a platformed package decorated with comic book paper. With puzzles that are perfect in terms of difficulty and a presentation teeming with flair, it's sad to think that most gamers won't even give this game the once over.

It's a nice diversion on a quick flight to Vegas, but if your traveling to Europe, bring "Animal Crossing: Wild World" instead.

It's one of the few soundtracks that I would highly recommend buying, as the quality of the music is that good.

The gameplay remains true to the original, with fast-paced, juggle-savy fighting that provides some memorable action for fans and non-fans alike. Though "Guilty Gear" may be prettier, SFA gets the action down perfectly.

This could be due to the age of the game, the fact that we've played it before or because the screen is so tiny, but the game isn't nearly as frightening as it used to be.

The graphics are incredibly rich and extremely colorful, adding a whole new level of personality to the game.

Underneath its shiny exterior, it's littered with fresh gameplay that cleans up in the cuteness department.

It's one of the best games in the series - and now one of the best games on the PSP - and this remake has been done with so much love and care that you'll be unable to turn it away.

Somewhere between a collection of minigames and an adorable brainwashing method, Tamagotchi Connection Corner Shop proves that short bursts of repetition turn off some but for others can prove to be a fun albeit bizarre portable companion.

The question here, though, is does this work effectively? Does the touch-screen manage to emulate the sport of golf to a degree that is realistic and workable? Yes, it does.

Control of the minigames themselves is sluggish at best, making you feel like all the monkeys have been shot with a tranquilizer gun.

The hardcore Ape fans will jump right in and feel right at home, never skipping a beat.

The original Mega Man X is my second favorite game in the series, though it is easily one of the most carefully polished and well put together games in the series.

Electroplankton is not a game in any sense of the word. It is art, plain and simple.
