    Murder in the Abbey
    I highly enjoyed the story of Murder in the Abbey. It was well written and the dialogue is pretty good and the graphic blending of cel-shading, 2D and 3D graphics really make this title stand out from the rest of the crowd.

    Dragon Age II: Legacy
    For the price, it's not a bad addition, but as a fan of the game's narrative and someone who followed the 'press A until you're done' method of combat, there wasn't much for me. Fans of dungeons and battles will, of course, vary, so whether Legacy is worth your dollar depends very much on what parts of the game you enjoyed.

    Sid Meier's Pirates!
    Despite the game's inherent charm, the Wii port does a lot to drag this game down to Davy Jones' locker.

    The Lord of the Rings: Tactics
    I can think of a dozen things that would have made this game better, or at least more attractive to the casual gamer, but for those who love the Lord of the Rings and need a solid strategy fix on their PSP, this will easily fill that need for a few months to come.

    Musashi: Samurai Legend
    If "Kingdom Hearts'" battle system hadn't sucked, it might have played a lot like this game.

    Disney*Pixar WALL-E
    Too bad a game this boring and frustrating ever saw the light of day.

    SingStar ABBA
    I would highly recommend that anyone that enjoys singing try out the series and if you love ABBA then this latest addition to the series is worth a look.

    Call of Duty: Roads to Victory
    This is a totally original title with all of the polish and exciting gameplay we’ve come to expect from the Call of Duty name. It’s just a shame that the control scheme wasn’t a bit more refined.

    Van Helsing
    It’s a shame the experience is over just about the time you are warmed up, and the fixed-position camera might work for movies but doesn’t translate well into gameplay, especially in a 3D world.

    Mace Griffin Bounty Hunter
    A solid bug-free game that is fun to play and gorgeous to look at. It could have been so much more, but what we are ultimately left with is still a total blast.

    Micro Machines V4
    I’m not embarrassed to say that I really liked Micro Machines V4. After playing all of the more serious games that come my way, this was a pleasantly mindless, yet challenging diversion that showed some real ingenuity, especially in the visionary track designs and great use of scale.

    Major League Baseball 2K9
    MLB 2K9 is improving. It seems to be a best fit for someone who is a casual fan.

    Command & Conquer 4: Tiberian Twilight
    I also really liked the way that the developers changed up the gameplay dynamics. I’ve never really been a fan of constant resource gathering in games overall but Tiberian Twilight’s new dynamics made it much more enjoyable.

    Phantasy Star Universe
    There is little doubt in my mind that Sega could create a great MMO one day, but truth is, they need a make a fresh start and take the concept in a new direction, take it back to the drawing board.

    Academy of Champions: Soccer
    Still, I do not want to come down too hard on Academy of Champions: Soccer, because the game has delivered a great deal of enjoyment over the past few weeks regardless of the poor controls, dumpy visuals, and boring audio. The on-field action is where it counts, and Academy delivers in spades.

    Carve
    If Carve were trying to compete with AAA racing titles then it would be quickly dismissed as a failure, but with an affordable price tag and a multiplayer element including flawlessly smooth online racing, there is no reason that any fan of watercraft racing or Xbox Live gaming should skip this game.

    Cold War
    It's gameplay and graphics are good but it does not stand out in any major way.

    Crash Twinsanity
    Crash’s current developer Traveller’s Tales does the series great justice by adding new elements like free-roaming environment and three very noticeable new gameplay mechanics, but all in all, it’s the evolved sense of humor that really offers Crash a new hope.

    Intellivision Lives!
    The control scheme falls rather flat, the documentation on actually playing the games can be spotty and the overall presentation of the whole thing is quite underwhelming.

    Worms: Open Warfare
    Unfortunately this game is better suited for the PSP with its widescreen more so than the DS, where it feels crunched.

    Wrath Unleashed
    In many ways Wrath Unleashed represents a significant step forward for the future of gaming diversity.

    Lemony Snicket's A Series of Unfortunate Events
    Combined with the already short length, Snicket on the PC is an "unfortunate event" that you can probably pass on in favor of one of the console versions. Even the GBA game is better than this.

    • 68 Critic Score
    The Incredibles: Rise of the Underminer
    A fun little superhero romp targeted toward pre-teens. There are a few balancing issues and the game really needs to be played with two people at all times even if you do end up arguing over who gets to play Mr. Incredible.

    Suikoden IV
    Too stinking short. It's not just that it ends in half the time most newer RPG’s do. It's that the ending feels contrived and artificial, and leaves the players wanting so much more that even a second play through can't remedy the feeling of crushing disappointment that "that's all there is."

    FIFA Street 2
    While definitely not for every gamer, FIFA Street 2 is a very solid entry into the realm of arcade sports and fans of the genre are sure to have a good time – once they get a handle on the control scheme, that is.

    Godzilla: Save the Earth
    With a solid single-player experience and a multiplayer game that is as much fun locally as it is online, Godzilla is just a fantastic game. I've played this longer than any other fighting game in my collection and I still enjoy going back for the occasional monster mash, even after I have long since unlocked everything.

    FIFA Street 3
    It’s just not very fun and has very little to set it apart from other games. EA really needs to take a look at what they are doing with this series.
    • 63 Metascore
    • 78 Critic Score
    Finding Nemo
    One of the best movie-licensed games I've seen so far this year and I highly recommend it for kids and their parents or anyone just looking for a fun and unique game.

    DreamWorks Shark Tale
    The varied gameplay of each mission keeps things interesting, and the overall look of the game matches well with the movie.

    • 81 Critic Score
    Alpha Protocol
    I really enjoyed Alpha Protocol, perhaps even a bit more so than its technically superior Mass Effect 2 or Dragon Age competition. All of these games have pretty much the same gameplay style and level of complexity, but what really sells it for me is that I love a good spy drama, and Alpha Protocol delivers all the action and immersion of that genre while making me the star of my own espionage movie.
