    X-Men: The Official Game
    One of the chief problems with X-Men lies in its mission structure. Branching paths are often a good thing, but when they are as disconnected to point where any semblance of an underlying plot is compromised at these are here, any benefit of such a feature is wasted.

    X-Men: The Official Game
    The DS version of X-Men tries too hard to take advantage of the DS’s touch screen, and this is where it fails. The play control is unique but tiring.

    The Da Vinci Code
    The Da Vinci Code isn’t the worst game based on a movie, but its dependence on puzzles and unbalanced action make it hard to recommend to anyone but the the most devout fan of the source material or those who simply can't get enough of puzzle-based adventure games.

    New Super Mario Bros.
    Classic. There really isn't any other word to describe New Super Mario Bros., Nintendo's latest, and dare I say greatest game for the Nintendo DS.

    Rise of Nations: Rise of Legends
    When push comes to shove, Rise of Legends is a lateral step for the Nations franchise. The game is sound mechanically and brilliant visually, but it lacks the staying power that kept Rise of Nations in players’ disc drives for so long.

    SiN Episodes: Emergence
    SiN Emergence is a decent game. It's just uninspired, relying too much on the technology upon which it is built, and as such brings little new to the table.

    NBA Ballers: Rebound
    A good arcade-style basketball game to pass the time. Just keep in mind that the loading is atrocious.

    Over the Hedge
    Over The Hedge's quality ranges from decidedly below average to outright terrible, and you can almost hear the executives at DreamWorks and Activision trying to squeeze every cent out of the license instead of making an entertaining game.

    DreamWorks Over the Hedge
    Don’t let the movie license scare you away. The game looks good, controls well, and is entertaining to play. Vicarious Visions did a great job with the license here.

    American Civil War: Take Command - Second Manassas
    It is is enjoyable, playable, and will find a happy home in any strategist’s library, hardcore or otherwise.

    Metal Saga
    Whether or not a player will like this game depends primarily on how they take to the humor, which is offbeat and playful, as well as his or her willingness to look beyond the game's lack of cohesive story.

    Guilty Gear Dust Strikers
    DS owners are advised to take care if they are contemplating purchasing this odd take of the Guilty Gear franchise, as besides the series' moniker, this is definitely not the same game that you are used to playing.

    Atelier Iris 2: The Azoth of Destiny
    This game is a lot of fun, and offers all of the humor, charm, and personality we have come to expect from NIS America. This is the kind of game you won't want to end.

    Ace Combat Zero: The Belkan War
    The amount of intricate detail found on the planes is astounding, as the developers obviously put a lot of time and effort into making the aircraft as realistic as possible.

    Shadowgrounds
    This is definitely a game action fans, Aliens enthusiasts, as well as players who enjoyed classic games such as Alien Syndrome – a real classic in the top-down genre – will enjoy immensely.

    Rampage: Total Destruction
    The formula was never that good to begin with, and shiny new graphics, tons of new monsters, and a host of unlockable moves simply cannot hide the fact that Rampage, no matter the generation, is a bore.

    FIFA World Cup: Germany 2006
    The whole game plays faster than FIFA 2006, as here EA has managed to set the perfect pace for soccer.

    Xpand Rally
    For twenty bucks this is a pretty great game, especially if you’re big into rally racing.

    Brain Age: Train Your Brain in Minutes a Day!
    Even so, the mini-games are excellent and really do provide a quick, painless focus for the mind.

    Monster Rancher EVO
    While it is still possible to enjoy the game on its merits, the player can expect to be frustrated by long hours of tedium thanks to the problems with the breeding system.

    Bone: The Great Cow Race
    A faithful take on the original comic by Jeff Smith, and showcases the art, wit and humor wonderfully. It also provides a reasonable degree of difficulty to the adventure gaming uninitiated, and graphics that are more than easy enough to look at without pushing your system to the limits.
