    Overcomes what could have been crippling flaws with the same addictive gameplay, and the controls are what sells this title.

    This feels as if it was rushed out for Christmas, and if they would have waited until there was more material from the show, it could have been worth the effort.
    • 39 Metascore
    • 35 Critic Score
    Unless you have some sort of sheer morbid curiosity to see a game with what is one of the worst possible stories ever, there is nothing here worth buying.

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

    Eragon is an experience better read than played, but the PSP version has enough online/WiFi modes to almost be worth owning!

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

    Gothic III is solidly entertaining, a great upgrade from "Gothic II," but lacks the polish of "Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion."

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

    The only thing worse than playing Warhammer: Battle for Atluma would be having paid to play it. Numerous issues including presentation, short length, and rather complex gameplay mechanics make it hard to recommend this game.

    If you were a big fan of Rampage and have been thinking "I'd like this more if I could physically punch instead of button mash!", then you're pretty much the target audience.

    Eragon is an experience better read than played!

    Inspired from the somewhat average Mortal Kombat: Deception on PlayStation 2, this reduced version features too many omissions to be as enjoyable.

    Nintendo finally gets around to making up for Yoshi’s Touch and Go with this amazing follow up to Super Mario World 2: Yoshi’s Island. Easily one of the best in the genre, Yoshi’s Island DS is a fun, colorful, and energetic platform game that every Nintendo DS owner should play.

    Easily is the best installment yet for the main series, bringing its style of arcade racing to PlayStation 3. While the suck is lackluster and there aren’t many new vehicles or tracks, it does offer intuitive new motion-sensitive controls and great online gameplay. Ridge Racer 7 doesn’t reinvent the wheel, but it definitely gives it a good spin.
    • 57 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    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.
    • 56 Metascore
    • 5 Critic Score
    The whole game is plodding and repetitive, and it doesn't have a single redeeming quality.
    • 69 Metascore
    • 75 Critic Score
    Blitz the League repackages a year old game for the next generation, but it's a GOOD game. Worth picking up if you don't have the original version.
    • 53 Metascore
    • 40 Critic Score
    This game is a damn, dirty tease. No one will buy it for the volleyball and the jetskis. No one will buy it because they want a good casino game or a dating sim. This game’s target audience is people that want wank material. And in that respect, it doesn’t even qualify as softcore porn.

    Not a bad first-effort at an oddball game for kids, Viva Pinata holds appeal to all ages, but not to all tastes, given the niche nature of the title and the too-frenetic pace in the early going.

    Chicken Little: Ace in Action is a decent action game that could have been great with a little more work. As it stands, it’s one of those that’ll be sure to please younger fans of the film, but that’s about it.
    • 66 Metascore
    • 71 Critic Score
    This is wasted potential for a surprise hit. Great graphics and classic fast-paced action would be absolutely awesome if it wasn’t so darn repetitive.

    While the game isn’t exactly a computer virus, it’s so full of bugs, it could certainly be mistaken for one.
    • 94 Metascore
    • 95 Critic Score
    An inventive, immersive thrill ride of a game with graphics above and beyond everything else on the market, top-notch presentation, and a multiplayer mode that will have you coming back for more, even if you were only in it for the single-player mode from the get-go.

    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.
    • 74 Metascore
    • 88 Critic Score
    It may not have a whole lot in the options category, but at the price being asked, one should feel very satisfied with a purchase.

    Call of Duty 3 packs in more impressive features than any previous installment: gorgeous graphics and audio, an intense single player campaign, and a wealth of multiplayer options. Even if it isn’t the most original game, Call of Duty 3 is certainly one of the finest.

    The first truly "next-gen" Tony Hawk game looks and plays great.
