    What could have been a lame attempt at making Wii Katamari turns out to be a whole lot of fun. It's pseudo-plagaraism of the King of Cosmos holds this back from getting a better score.

    Blazing Angels: Squadrons of WWII is a fun game to fly around in and decent as a combat title, but falls short of achieving launch-window greatness.

    This is a solid game, and beyond multiplayer, not meant to be played casually. If you want to see how precise the Wii controls can be you need to check this out.

    Somewhat engaging. Numerous shortcomings prevent it from being widely recommendable, but for a quick action fix Star Wars: Lethal Alliance will get the job done.

    The career mode finally last longer than a season, but GM mode still needs a major overhaul; lacking many of the enhancements found on PS2 and 360, Smackdown vs. Raw 2007 is an upgrade only in the eyes of diehard WWE fans who want to wrestle as The Great Khali or Umaga on the go.

    You can find better RPGs for the GBA, period. It's something of a diamond in the rough, it's just a bit too rough to recommend.

    This is yet another solid Castlevania game, but the series is starting to tire out thanks to a lack of worthwhile change. What changes this game does make simply don’t cut it, and while Castlevania: Portrait of Ruin is still a decent title, it happens to be far too much like the last decent title in the series.

    This is a truly excellent game whose only real flaws are caused by the platform it’s on. Still, as long as this is only on the PSP, it’s a must-have title for both Metal Gear series fans and PSP gamers looking for a great action game.

    Flaws and all this is a great game for the preteen audience. It does bear on the repetitive side, but in light of more recent licensed game, at least there is more than two hours of game.

    Fight Night Round 3 is gonna knock you out—gorgeous graphics, awesome controls, and great gameplay. Porting over the same hard-hitting gameplay as found on Xbox 360, Fight Night Round 3 throws in an exclusive new mode and makes good use of PlayStation Network. Aside from lengthy loading times, there’s little reason to not enter the ring.

    Over 200 levels adds to the gigantic amount of replay value. Even though it is lacking in a multiplayer mode, Remix is still a complete blast and will provide you with many hours of enjoyment.

    Really a pretty fun game. Worth a rental at least. If you've got a kid, it's probably worth buying, especially if they enjoyed the movie.

    And, as long as you like a game of pretty chess against a computer or a friend that’s in the same room, this will do the trick. But if you want a teacher, a fantastical remake, a door to competition online or anything resembling comprehensive, this game will let you down.

    If you're looking for a good poker game, there are several to choose from these days. If you want any other good gambling though, you're better off digging through the discount PC game section at your shop and seeing if you can find something there.

    As far as genre goes, this collection is weighed heavily towards shoot-‘em-ups and brawlers. Fans of those two genres, or of those specific games, will undoubtedly be delighted with what’s on offer here. However, those hoping for a healthy mix of this ‘n that like the first collection are bound to be disappointed.

    A solid beat 'em up from the team that brought us Champions of Norrath and other great brawlers. Definitely worth a purchase if you want a superhero game that's actually enjoyable.

    This isn’t Smash Bros., it’s not taking XBLA’s top spot from Geometry Wars any time soon, and it often gets frustrating thanks to various design flaws. However, it does at least offer a nice distraction with some unique gameplay.

    A wealth of new multiplayer options, as well as the introduction of new elements to the single player campaign makes it a worthy buy.

    Ho-hum. A by-the-books linear platformer that does just enough to cater to kids who liked the movie, and little more.

    Hardly entertaining, the game features presentation problems and boring play that isn’t worth the effort. Read the book instead.

    Superman Returns from EA on 360 is much better than "Superman" from Titus on N64. That’s not setting the bar very high, though. At best, it’s average.

    The most intriguing feature of the Rainbow Six: Vegas online experience is the Persistent Elite Creation: the player’s avatar in the online Rainbow Six universe.

    Despite some features that need upgrading, College Hoops 2K7 is still the king of all hoops games, pro or college, on any platform.

    It's a decent FPS, with great (for the system) graphics and audio, and makes for a decently enjoyable run, although it's only worth making the run once. Rent it first.

    The story is very good, but the gameplay execution leaves me wanting. A solid adventure game, but it seems to be coasting on the strength of its star.

    The only multiplayer is a two-player split screen. Four players is too much apparently and going online is out of the question. Not a great system seller in this regard.

    It's free, so you're getting what you pay for. Yes, it can be fun, but it should have been a lot better.

    Even for a quick rush license game, this a new standard in how incomplete a game could be. What troubles most is that each of the games feels like a flash game. These could all easily be played on a keyboard and mouse, than any controller let alone the Wii Remote.

    Big Bumpin’ is probably the most successful of the three Burger King games, if only because it aims so very low.

    Pocketbike Racing is a failed racing game that could have been a good one. If missed potential is worth $4 to you, by all means go for it.
