    If it were not for the poor controls, worse camera, and myriad technical guffaws it might have been an OK game. Some of the ideas are cool, but the execution is definitely not.

    Kung Fu Panda may not be a long lasting game but it adds some unique platforming with button mashing fighting and plenty of well done graphics and great audio. Kung Fu Panda for the PS2 is well worth the effort and even for a platformer and button masher well worth the cost.

    Kung Fu Panda for the PC is my choice for the button mashing fun as Po the Panda but I am a PC gamer at heart and am quite used to the mouse and keyboard control scheme.

    A technically flawless game with lightning fast load times that allow you to play a round of golf in minutes rather than hours, making this the perfect title for the gamer on the go who needs to play in short spurts.

    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.

    They are really scraping the bottom of the barrel now. Is it possible for a game to immediately qualify for Microsoft’s new “delisting” policy?

    Enemy Territory is the very definition of tactical warfare and its objective-base design and multiple classes will keep you playing longer than any other game in the genre.

    Enemy Territory: QUAKE Wars is a revolutionary online experience, a paradigm shift in tactical multiplayer game design, and the online game that the console world has been waiting for.

    Lost Planet: Extreme Condition Colonies Edition is by far the best version of the Lost Planet.

    I highly recommend picking up this title as soon as you can sink your teeth into it.

    Haze is just the latest nail in Sony’s coffin that finds me using my PS3 more as a Blu-ray movie player than a gaming system.

    The low amount of songs is well offset by the easy to use download from the PlayStation SingStore and an extra bonus in the online videos you can add to or check out.

    If you want a preview of what’s coming in FIFA 09, UEFA Euro 2008 is as close as you can get. It is one of the best soccer games to date, but it’s so limited that its shelf life is almost zero.

    For a mere $10, Assault Heroes 2 is hands-down one of the better values on the Xbox Live Arcade.

    Every game was really really pixilated.

    Despite the unfortunate length of LostWinds, it is a remarkably good game, an adventure with broad appeal that takes a simple idea and brings it to elegant fruition.

    Although Dr. Knizia has done a good job with his company inventing board games and such this was nothing more than a waste of time.

    I really think there is a market for old school strategy games with modern graphics, but these games still have to emphasize fun over tedium. If you’re going to make a game about great historical warriors and legendary battles, make sure your players can quickly join the thick of the fight.

    The simplicity of the Echochrome’s look is slick and the puzzles are imaginative and well designed.

    There are issues with controls, gameplay and graphics.

    Toy shop is a fun and engaging game and not all that difficult but it is not the exciting or action filled game that some reviewers seem to be looking for.

    Mario Kart boils down to a whole lot of luck and very little skill.

    And while the FMV movies are definitely worth checking out – if only to laugh at their ridiculousness – it is not worth plunking down $40 for.

    Wild Earth: African Safari is worth the cost and a great game for kids that are interested in learning about animals, Africa, conservation and some about a possible career path.

    Compared to the likes of NBA Street or the highly underrated Street Hoops, NBA Ballers: Chosen One seems sluggish and contrived.

    Battle of the Bands has a fantastic concept that is lost in some overly simplistic gameplay that just fails to grab the gamer and keep them interested for any length of time.

    First, this demo has as much, if not more content than a lot of other racing games out there, and second, a lot of the profits from this “demo” will certainly be rolled over into the final game, making it even better than ever.

    The combination of zombies and alien brains is unbeatable, in theory and in execution in this fun and charming DS puzzle title.

    I found it more challenging than the previous adventure and I particularly liked being able to see more of the famed detective’s city.

    I can’t recommend Kung Fu Panda for the DS highly enough, especially for the younger kids, perhaps those that wanted to play Ninja Gaiden and weren't allowed.
