    This game has a nice mix of simplicity and active thinking that makes it a great kid’s game. Get the grandparents to get this game, and watch your son or daughter shine on your computer.

    Where’s My Pony? offers a fun family adventure, even if it may not be the most original game on the market. The puzzles and controls are easy enough for young kids to figure out and enjoy. This game is a good buy for any little girl who likes the Cabbage Patch Kids or horses.

    Unlike World of Warcraft, the majority of a characters statistics are determined by his or her level, rather than equipment, which should be attractive to casual gamers.

    It's hopelessly unplayable, a huge mess that was thrown together by blindfolded programmers and one of the worst games I've ever played. It didn't have to be that way. There is really no excuse for this game.

    In summary, I'd say the biggest weakness with 1914 Shells of Fury is the feeling that you have little control over what happens.

    I was very surprised by how well this game was put together. The designers really spent some time with the pros and in the poker rooms to really make this as lifelike as possible.

    The biggest problem I had with Hot Wheels: Beat That! is that I was going into playing it thinking it was just a pure racing game with cool weapons to help you get ahead in the race. I hated to have to think about the various objectives I needed to complete to get more tires so I could unlock more levels and new cars.

    Hot Wheels: Beat That! is fun because it doesn’t pretend to be something that it isn’t. It’s enjoyable because it’s fanciful and it is something familiar at the same time.

    While the Super Collapse 3 borrows on ideas from everything from Tetris to Bubble Bobble, it does a great job of maintaining its own identity with a color and charm that is wholly unique and a great additional to anyone’s PSP library of casual games.

    Dancing with the Stars plays a bit like the lovechild of Dance Dance Revolution and Karaoke Revolution, and it has some design flaws, but it’s certainly not unplayable.

    Luxor: Pharaoh’s Challenge is a casual puzzle game that could be effectively played in about ten minutes or a little more. If you seek the thrill of beating a game and want to see more and more of those little stubborn beetles squished than by all means go ahead and purchase this but wait till the price goes down.

    If you enjoy colorful puzzles games with a bit of arcade shooting action thrown in, and you haven’t already played Luxor 2, then you’ll definitely want to check out this latest version of Luxor for the PSP.

    I think this game is a great family game. However, this game only took me about 45 minutes to complete. A young child with some gaming skill would probably have this game beat with an hour and a half.

    To summarize my experience with Arctic Stud, I would use the words addicting and revengeful.

    If you don’t mind the interface design flaws, USA Today Crossword Challenge really isn’t so bad for its purpose. And, if you love crossword puzzles and can overlook those navigation and design quirks that I found so irritating, then please don’t mind the low rating; that’s just my personal taste and demanding gamer mentality speaking.

    The Legend of Spyro: Dawn of the Dragon may have seen its better days but this game has about as much appeal as playing some of those older games from days gone by. With such a lack of creativity and new gameplay the game does not make for much fun and the PlayStation 2 version is no different than the PS3 version.

    I’m an old fan of the Crash Bandicoot license, and I have always loved the games for their clean, family friendly fun. Whether a blockbuster or a barnburner, I have always shared the Crash titles with my kids – and they have always had smiles on their faces. Mind Over Mutant is a different story in that it actually brought tears of frustration – for all of us.

    For those who have never played the original, Pitfall: The Big Adventure will be a worthwhile purchase once it drops below the $19.99 price point. Until then, it's a fun romp through a world of freewheeling treasure hunters, man-eating crocs and hidden treasure--just not quite fun, or new, enough.

    Though it’s really short, while it lasts, Women’s Murder Club: Death in Scarlet is certainly enjoyable enough for its genre.

    The PS2 gets the job done nicely, but without online access to download new songs or even upload the ones you make, it nearly defeats the purpose of the Music Studio and your multiplayer is limited to local head-to-head and four-player co-op.

    Big League Sports is a miserable game that should have been released as a $10 Wii Ware title than an actual retail offering. Avoid this game at all costs. It’s neither fun nor original and has no place in your Wii game collection.

    The new Revenge of the Plague Lord expansion pretty much safely secures Puzzle Quest: Challenge of the Warlords in my top 5 Xbox 360 LIVE Arcade Titles List.

    Disney Sing It will unfortunately be of no interest to general audiences whatsoever for various reasons, including a lack of real gameplay, useless tutorials and a song list full of music most adults and even many teenagers have never heard before.

    Thankfully, EA did an admirable job making NCAA Football 10 have a little bit for everyone. You get the usual Dynasty and mascot modes, but the addition of the Road to Glory mode and new training mini-games really puts a lot of value in a small package.

    There is something undeniably fun about miniature golf, even on the Xbox 360 and even when it's so crazy it no longer seems like golf.

    If you already own the original game then dropping another $10 might be asking a bit much, but if this is your first time playing Enigmo then the iPad is certainly the best device on which to play it.

    Part 2 has much more to offer than part 1. The game really picks up in the plot department, and you get to travel to some much more interesting locales. I still feel that the game should have been packaged as one title as opposed to three, but the saga has been enjoyable thus far, and I am excited to begin part 3.

    If you can’t get $10 worth of enjoyment from Patriotic Pinball then you must hate pinball or really suck at it – either way, you probably shouldn’t buy it. Everyone else is going to have a real good time.
