    Rock Band 2
    If you already own the first game and all the instruments, this is a must-own title; if you haven't experienced the magic, this is a great place to start.

    Jeopardy!
    But considering everything that's missing and its high price, purchasing Jeopardy! is riskier than a Potent Potables Double Jeopardy question.

    RocketBowl
    Rocketbowl is not a title to just brush off. It has a lot of features to it that are fun and exciting. Getting your friends online to have an online tournament and show off your skills you honed from the single player.

    Samurai Shodown II
    If you spent time jamming quarters into Samurai Shodown 2 in an arcade somewhere back in the day, this game is worth a look. But if you're looking for a classic, fun 2D fighter on XBLA, you could do better.

    TNA iMPACT!
    If you own any wrestling game from the last five years, I can almost guarantee it'll have more match types, story lines, and custom moves than this one.

    NHL 09
    EA Sports has been doing fine work on this series for the last few years, but everything until now only seems like groundwork for this years version. Small problems aside this is the best game of hockey ever made.

    Air Traffic Chaos
    Overall, Air Traffic Chaos's controls are simple enough, but that doesn't mean that they're not a pain to navigate.
    • 75 Metascore

    Groovin' Blocks
    While its nothing new it does provide some enjoyment to those looking for a new puzzle title and have had enough with the other ones on the market.
    • 84 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Spore
    Spore is a good game held back from greatness by a few flaws and gameplay mechanics that won't appeal to everyone. But there is plenty to like about the game and if you dig its particular style of open-ended gameplay, you'll definitely enjoy yourself.

    FaceBreaker
    I have to admit FaceBreaker does have a lot of potential. But as hard as I tried to like the game, I just couldn't get into it that much. [Oct 2008, p.96]

    Pirates vs Ninjas Dodgeball
    Pirates vs Ninjas is an attractive looking title and offers a unique take on an old school game, but its ineffective gameplay just won't let it compete with other titles more worthy of your hard earned cash.

    Shred Nebula
    The ultimate downfall of Shred Nebula is the controls.

    Gin Rummy
    To be frank the game is just very lacking and very bland. With all the great summer titles hitting high numbers it's a safe bet that this one will make the scratch list in the next few months.

    Infinite Undiscovery
    Then there's the slowdown: yes, in this age of high-powered processors and graphics hardware, Infinite Undiscovery suffers from slowdown. The game itself is gorgeous, with detailed character models to neat-o combat animations, but the action tends to slow to a crawl when too many enemies clutter the screen.

    Viva Pinata: Trouble in Paradise
    Despite some irritating design elements, Trouble in Paradise is a fun game that retains the charm of the first Viva Pinata. It's sort of like trying to hit an actual pinata while wearing a blindfold-you'll be frustrated at points but it's still pretty awesome.

    PictoImage
    Quotation forthcoming.

    Defendin' DePenguin
    All in all, this is a very simple game on all accounts bogged down by repetitive gameplay and uninspired levels.

    Mercenaries 2: World in Flames
    When there's dirty work to be done and you're looking for a hired gun, looks and originality don't matter much-all that matters is whether they can get the job done. You can approach Mercenaries 2 in the same way, letting it do its thing instead of obsessing about its shortcomings. Sure, it isn't exactly pretty and it doesn't reinvent the wheel but it does pack a nice satisfying punch.

    The Last Guy
    With fun 15 levels to play through, The Last Guy is certainly worth a look.However, the downside is that the game has a very short life span.

    Castle Crashers
    An excellent all-around game.

    Tales of Vesperia
    This interesting installment in the Tales series is probably best suited to hardcore RPG nuts and fans who loved the previous titles.

    N+
    While N+ is a polished game, I am fine leaving N as a nice Internet distraction, even if the controls aren't quite as tight as when you play these handheld versions.

    Disgaea 3: Absence of Justice
    If you've never played a Disgaea title before, then head out and grab Disgaea 3. For veterans of the series... yeah, it's more of the same, but with this franchise, when has that ever been a bad thing?

    Mario Super Sluggers
    Poor controls, frustrating gameplay and a repetitive single-player mode mean it's three strikes and you're out for Mario and his friends.

    Ratchet & Clank Future: Quest for Booty
    It has a few hours of enjoyment and despite maybe being a little too short; you will want to go back over and over again.
    • 74 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Galaga Legions
    On its own merits, Galaga Legions is an enjoyable but short game. But for old school gamers the original title, available on XBLA for half the price, has much more to offer.
    • 65 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Too Human
    It's ultimately the inspired intermingling of the disparate abilities bestowed on partnered players that makes Too Human worth playing.
    • 55 Metascore

    Smash Court Tennis 3
    Let this middling tennis game be a lesson to why you shouldn't port a PSP game to the Xbox 360.

    Bionic Commando: Rearmed
    Capcom really did a great job of walking the fine line between paying homage to the classic and moving in a new direction. Of course, Rearmed isn't perfect: the controls take some getting used to, the hacking mini-game's sort of lame, and the game is still brutally tough--curse you spiked floors!--but it's a great update that I heartily recommend to old school NES fans and new gamers alike.
