N3 wants to be deep and engrossing, but the depth of the story never really translates because it's cased in a host of boring and simplistic gameplay elements.

The entire production feels unforced, with a overly complex storyline and repetitive meaningless missions. I wanted to love my sweet Armored Core action, but I have been denied.

Generation of Chaos ends up feeling like chaos, unfocused and under whelming. A little more interface development time and instructional tutorials could have gone a long way. Plus, I wanted to be more hands on combat then a pre controlled fight.

Enemy Territory: Quake Wars had the right idea, but this war might be a little too much for the mighty army of the Strogg.

Rhapsody DS won’t replace your classic Playstation game disc, but it offers an updated touch to this original game in a portable package.

Arc Rise Fantasia is as typical as you can find, generic to the point of being too generic.

If you like your guns or want a few more New Vegas achievements added to your gamerscore, then the Gun Runners' Arsenal add-on will interest you.

Unless you fit into the hardcore RPG demographic, I would sit this one out. However, If you are part of the demographic, then 'Risen' is a niche game that will entice your adventurers sensibilities-- that is, if you don't mind sitting through a few glitchy spots for the thrill of the hunt.

Until they can get the A.I. to act a little more realistic like the pros that are in the game it will never have that real feel in single player mode. But if you need your fix before your buddies come over, this is your game!

There's a fairly good game here that's just marred by a terrible co-op system.

If you're not into the movie or cute fuzzy forest animals then Open Season doesn't offer up much to the causal gamer, especially with the voice mimic talent they found for the production.

It's really too bad Cold War falls short in the actually gameplay because everything else in concept is rocking.

Gangs of London incongruity between style, substance, and basic gaming mechanics is disappointing.

Being a fan of the first two games, followers of the franchise are going to want to discard Circle of Doom from their memories. If you’re new to the Kingdom then you might find some joy in the hack n’ slash action, if you accept the game for what it is.

Deception did nothing for me and it could be because of my countless hours playing "Soul Calibur," but I need more out of my fighting games.

SNK vs. Capcom Card Fighters DS is an average showing from SNK Playermore. Lazy in translation, it seems they have missed an opportunity to make something special for strategy fans, Capcom and SNK enthusiasts, and card battling fanatics.

Over G Fighters is for the hardcore fans of modern aircraft simulations. There isn't much here besides the accuracy of the jets and a few entertaining dogfights.

Gran Turismo for the Playstation Portable is a rare case. In one hand you have an extremely well made and polished game engine with spectacular graphics, and in the other you have absolutely nothing to do.

Two Worlds II is for the die-hard RPG enthusiasts who loves their "middle earth" settings and a more PC centric experience. It's a deal in the bargain bin, but for now, I would hold off.

Bodycount is a no-brains needed arcade shooter that provides a few hours of embellished destruction.

Overall Mercenaries 2: World in Flames is disappointing. There are a handful of noticeable bugs and glitches in the game, both in the cinematics and gameplay.

Ultimately, White Knight Chronicles is a major disappointment for any fans that have played any of Level 5’s previous games, or for anyone looking for a top tier role-playing experience.

In a pile of generic ideas, Hunted: The Demon's Forge descends into the darkness becoming instantaneously forgettable.
