    This is great, but expect repetitive block smashing and item collecting that, in this third LEGO game, has overstayed its welcome.

    The presentation is mostly excellent and the gameplay effectively blends puzzle solving with action. While there are no scenarios from the latest Indy film, these Adventures still provide a worthwhile Jones fix.

    Hot Shots Golf: Open Tee 2 keeps everything that made the original so excellent and then throws in several new features.

    The game that was already exceptional on the Xbox 360 is even better on the PC, so it's really a no brainer.

    Sporting high-resolution visuals and a comforting soundtrack, the only major addition is multiplayer, but we didn't encounter many challengers online, since this is a game that most people want to play by themselves.

    Doesn't play nearly as well as its predecessor. With a significant drop in visual fidelity as well as a reduction in the number of people in online matches (from 32 to 16), things just aren't as exciting.

    The visuals still look great a year and a half later, but the controls are still sluggish and the campaign is over too quickly.

    If you've been waiting for a WiiWare game to download, Dr. Mario's got the cure – and it won't set your wallet back to Medicaid levels either.

    Nevertheless, like any good ride, Precipice of Darkness is fun while it lasts.

    It doesn't do anything vastly different from its competitors, but it doesn't need to. Just pop it into your PS3, relax and start shooting.

    Make no mistake – SingStar on the PlayStation 3 is a party that shouldn't be missed.

    We'd like to see more of these quirky games, and the more traditional exercises, while challenging, will likely get old in short order. Lack of a serious multiplayer or party mode is the biggest omission, but since the game installs a Wii Fit channel on your system, we can only hope that means regular updates are in the works.

    Star Soldier R could've been so much more, with at least five or six more levels, a difficulty curve and two-player interactivity. As it stands, though, it's surprisingly fun.

    Prince Caspian isn't an awful game, but considering the DS' premier adventures (The World Ends with You and The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass), it'll never be king.

    The visuals look better than before and the co-op support is great, both off-line and through Xbox Live.

    While the puzzles are clever, shrinking the game to a handheld and the lack of a cursor makes solving them more a case of trial-and-error. Purists may dig it, but the vast majority of gamers should pass this adventure by.

    The inability to use your Miis as playable characters hurts. However, for $30, it's a fun game to play with friends, even if competitive figure skating sounds somewhat ridiculous.

    While it lacks flashy presentation and over-the-top action, as previously seen with EA Sports Big's SSX Blur, it makes up for the negatives with precise controls that feel like you're actually skiing.

    Pop
    Although it has slim pickings, Pop's enjoyable for a little while. With that said, repeatedly pressing A gets old real quick, and after a while, the thought of being number one in the world loses its luster.

    It's a novel idea that works, yet despite the fun racing action, Speed Racer suffers from limited tracks, a short Championship Mode and no online play. It's worth a few hours of your time, but don't spend $49.99 for it.

    While the graphics needed more polish and the load times occasionally interrupt the flow of battle, R-Type Command presents an intense challenge with plenty of sci-fi flair that should satisfy most gamers.

    Although its simplistic set-up and weird rectangular-shaped animals appear decidedly kitschy, Boom Blox is one of the Nintendo Wii's best third-party games, a work of genius from the collaborative efforts of EA and Steven Spielberg.
    • 69 Metascore

    Some of the games are marred by slowdown and problematic load times, and the lack of certain fan favorites (like Super Baseball 2020 and Viewpoint) is questionable. Still, for $20, these Arcade Classics aren't too shabby.

    Strategic word puzzling personified, with tons of activities to complete. What it lacks in frills, it more than makes up in substance, which is something that can't normally be said for a $20 piece of software. It's good stuff.
    • 45 Metascore
    • 40 Critic Score
    The gameplay turns mundane as you blast target after target with no real feeling of being the all-powerful Iron Man. Worse yet, it suffers from too many setbacks with its flying and ground combat.

    It's certainly mind-bending at times, but also relaxing. With a level editor in tow, there's more than enough here to warrant a purchase.

    The visuals are spectacular and the in-game music and dialogue manage to suck you in even further.
