    Scratches would have been a runaway hit … 10 years ago. Today? It’s just fairly tedious. This one’s only for die-hard point-and-click fans; others will be bored stiff.

    Remember how good Spider-Man 2 was? Hang onto that feeling by not playing this game.

    They should perhaps forget about the half-hearted measures and just stop putting out these cosmetically-enhanced, half-effort retreads and forge ahead with something new already. Like Parasite Eve 3!

    The Rainbow Six series has taken a major step back, and is nowhere near as good as it used to be. Let’s just hope Red Storm goes back to basics in the next outing, and we forget this rather unfortunate incident.

    It's not a bad PSP game of Poker. It's just not that good either.

    You've seen this before and you will see it again. Just wait until the next big kids movie comes out.

    A solid gameplay mechanic in search of a home.

    In the final analysis, however entertaining the movie might be, Eragon is an experience that’s better to read than it is to play.

    There's some great action in here, but everything surrounding it just fails to live up to the giants of this genre.

    It's a decent game, even if you'll have a sense of déjà vu the entire time. For hardcore SpongeBob fans only.

    This franchise is quickly heading for the bottom. This is one of the few second installment to expand on the original in more than just character selection. Naruto: Uzumaki Chronicles 2 is for serious fans only.

    Had there been a shorter time limit imposed on many of the games, or some sense of progression where different jobs kept coming then WTF would have been easy to recommend. As it is, only those that really enjoy the weird sense of humor that comes out of Japan will “get” the game and want to continue playing it for longer than it takes to get 8 mushrooms across the street.

    The potential was there, and it could have done so much more.

    Where before there was too little, here there is not enough worth getting involved with. The home console installments are usually worth your time, but Namco-Bandai has yet to make a handheld Naruto worth it.

    As it stands, this game is a collection of mediocre and fairly short minigames, failing to offer a viable reason to partake in its offerings.

    This may be one of the few games with nearly identical gameplay as its GBA cousin. It won't knock your socks off, but kids who are nuts about the movie might get a kick out of it.

    Only for long time Sega addicts. If Shining Force was you first RPG (mine was "Shining in the Darkness") there may be something for you here. With a huge RPG library on the PS2, there is no reason to play this very bland game.

    This is essentially just a side quest in the series, and it feels like it cannot stand on its own. There needs to be much more polish on a game than developers put in.

    If you want to play the newest Splinter Cell game, please, find another platform to play it on. Your mileage may vary, but this game just doesn't seem to work all that well. Only buy this if the multiplayer is your main reason, or possibly only reason for playing.

    Unlike the PlayStation Portable version which manages to be entertaining despite its flaws, Star Wars: Lethal Alliance on Nintendo DS is as laughable as it is frustrating.

    One of those games that lacks any flavor (or fun), it's sort of the stale saltine cracker of DS games.

    I guess Crime Stories is good for an hour or so of play, but I guarantee if you play for much longer if the disjointed dialogue doesn’t get you, the poor translation will.

    A better storyline and characters actually make Aedis Eclipse more tragic than it is more appealing; the game underlying this improvement is still as problematic, sluggish and poorly designed as the original title.

    Metal Saga feels phoned in; Atlus' other vehicle-based RPG, Steambot Chronicles, is a better choice in every way possible.
    • 56 Metascore

    A complete disappointment. Far from fun, it holds you hand through level after level of bland action platform gameplay that makes you wish you could escape from this digital nightmare.

    Family Guy feels divorced from the quality of its TV show inspiration; although funny, the game play is shallow and poorly realized... even more notably on PSP. Next!

    War has rarely been this uninspiring and run-of-the-mill.
