    This isn’t an exceptionally bad game, but it is an extremely mediocre one. The movie is a must-see, but unless you’re a huge fan of the film, you should stay away from this one.

    You get a fairly standard sports game that doesnt harken to one person or another, its just the sports. Really at this price, its a good deal for the kids.

    Another problem with the game is horrid AI.

    Only those obsessed with SNK games, or 2D fighters in general, will be interested.

    Better than Finest Hour, but still not where it needs to be.

    Ice Age 2: The Meltdown ought to be called Scrat’s Adventure, since Manfred, Sid and Diego make only token appearances.

    Rent it for some easy gamerpoints.

    Take a look up yonder and read over the tracklist to see if it suits you, because it was seriously lacking for both me and Lisa.

    Dungeon Maker: Hunting Grounds is the equivalent of light summer reading; fun and frothy, but not overly involving, slow or ponderous.

    If you have fond memories of this game, and don’t mind the 360’s crappy D-pad, go for it, I guess. Everyone else, you’re better off getting Street Fighter II or, better yet, the latest Mortal Kombat game when it comes out.

    The game does have some endearing visuals that manage to put a funny spin on rather grim material.

    The battle system had some potential, but is hampered by technical issues.

    Personally, I think 80 Days would have benefited from an extended beta-testing period. This would have definitely made them change the save system, and it would have probably removed most of the bugs too.

    Low-tech and lacking in ambition that would make the game stand out from other aerial combat titles, Snoopy vs. the Red Baron is still entertaining, in spite of awkward controls that make the game harder to control than it ought to be.

    True Swing Golf DS has a great control scheme... and nothing else to recommend it.

    Kursk is fine, but not stellar. If you are looking for more tanks and huge... slow levels this is probably for you. But I would probably avoid it.

    You don't have to have watched every episode of each series in order to get enjoyment out of Star Trek: Legacy. If you're looking for a more action oriented game, this isn't it.

    Transformers seems like it was built by a machine to a factory spec – all the parts are here that should, in theory, form an outstanding game. But it’s like no human actually gave it a test-drive to see if it was actually fun.

    Gun
    Gun is intense and packed with violence and action, but it is extremely brief and tends to overdose on the M-rated excesses.

    Eragon is still an experience better read than played… but this one’s possibly the most playable of the lot.

    If you're looking for a PSone/early PS2-quality turn-based RPG on PSP... keep on looking.

    The control just really brings it down. Offering some level of sensitivity control would have been nice. Offering support for using the nunchuk/classic controller/GC controller for more classic style of TH control would have been awesome.

    If you’re a PSP owner without a GBA or DS, you need to face the facts – you’re just depriving yourself a lot of fun by not owning one of Nintendo’s handhelds. Take the money you were going to spend on this game and put it towards one of those systems and a copy of Wario Ware.

    If we’re lucky, the game’s designers will take the lessons learned while creating this game and go on to make something truly great with them. Unfortunately, the flaws that impede the main game and two minigames here rob all three of their potential, leaving us with a title that, quite simply, isn’t fun.

    Overall fans of the original will be satiated with another entry in the series, but this game just feels really dated.

    Front Mission makes for a somewhat mediocre SRPG when put up against other titles on the market. The battles don’t require too much thought, and as a result the game gets repetitious very quickly.

    This game is a new twist on baseball. Neat in theory, but I'm not sure that cosmetic or game play changes will do much for a genre that is so well established.

    Darwinia is certainly “unique” and “original”. It’s a shame it’s not very “fun”.
    • 53 Metascore
    • 65 Critic Score
    The whole “two hands” thing may have been a good idea, but it’s poorly executed, as with the rest of the Wii controls. As for the rest of the game, it fails to make a significant improvement over Spider-Man 2.
