    V.I.P. Casino Blackjack
    The creepy lifelessness of it all can be mitigated somewhat with the addition of up to three human opponents in a barebones multiplayer mode, but otherwise, the most fun you'll have with V.I.P. Casino Blackjack is in watching Mr. Paradise slowly clap his hands like one of those cymbal-playing toy monkeys whenever he wins a hand.

    LostWinds
    This is the breakout, must-buy hit that WiiWare needed to justify its existence. LostWinds is a beautiful and unique exploration-based platformer that takes full and natural advantage of the Wii's control setup.

    Defend Your Castle
    This is a game that was made to break the ice at parties and gatherings of gamers, and it does that job amazingly well.
    • 64 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Pop
    Pop delivers on its promise of providing a bubble-popping game for the Wii, and it somehow turns the premise into an unexpectedly satisfying experience.
    • 63 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Wits & Wagers
    The games biggest offender is the questions themselves, there's no rhyme or reason to any of them.
    • 69 Metascore

    Speed Racer
    For what it is, with voiceovers from the actors, what I imagine is probably movie soundtrack, and some excellent-looking, swift racing with seriously fun combat stunts, Speed Racer: The Videogame is awesome.

    Speed Racer
    A forgiving, kid-friendly experience. Any times I somehow fell off the course were balanced by the times I probably should have, but didn't. Since you never actually explode, it's pretty much mindless fun, even when dealing with AI that always seems to manage to catch up.

    Boom Blox
    Boom Blox offers a great gaming experience with a ton replayability; you'll have to excuse the pun but this is one title that truly does qualify as a "summer blockbuster."

    Iron Man
    Any way you cut it, it's just not worth the aggravation to play through what is just another botched licensed movie game. [June 2008, p.81]
    • 56 Metascore

    Iron Man
    There's nothing awful about Iron Man for DS, but there isn't really anything that spectacular about it, either. Shmup fans already know they can get great, stylish games online, so this one will probably be left to young fans of the movie.

    echochrome
    As Obi-Wan Kenobi once told me, "Many of the truths we cling to depend greatly on our own point of view." Good advice when thinking your way through Echochrome's frequently mind stumping, addictive I-think-my-IQ-just-went-up-10-points, levels.

    Grand Theft Auto IV
    Any way you slice it, Niko Belic journey through Liberty City and his quest for answers to his shadowy past is an experience you just cannot afford to miss.

    Grand Theft Auto IV
    Considering the fact that it's been a target of political and media pundits who keep harping on the infamous "Hot Coffee" incident, it's understandable to think that Rockstar might tone down the adult themes in GTA IV. But thankfully, that didn't happen. This is a mature game, and a devilishly good one at that.

    Toy Shop
    The characters models are ugly despite aspiring towards cuteness, and the soundtrack will turn your brain into oatmeal.
    • 82 Metascore
    • 95 Critic Score
    Mario Kart Wii
    The refined gameplay, the super slick presentation and the flexible controls all add up to one of the finest racing experiences ever.
    • 88 Metascore
    • 90 Critic Score
    The World Ends with You
    The briskly moving plot and the unique battle system adds up yet another winner for Square Enix. [May 2008, p.82]

    NBA Ballers: Chosen One
    The core gameplay is great--the counters are brilliant and the energy stays high--yet it isn't enough to be chosen as more than a casual distraction.
    • 58 Metascore

    Battle of the Bands
    It's a fun little title that will prove especially pleasing to those who can't wrap their heads around Rock Band or Guitar Hero. It doesn't have the addictive staying power of those two heavyweight franchises but it's an accessible rhythm game that's perfect for the casual gamer and younger rock-god wannabes alike.

    Pokemon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time
    If you played Shiren, however, you may find Pokemon to be too forgiving for your dungeon-hacking skills.

    Rocky and Bullwinkle
    The Xbox LIVE Vision Camera, used for many of the games, is a complete bust (surprise!) forcing players to rely on a sometimes baffling controller scheme.
    • 50 Metascore

    Battlezone
    Despite its faults, for old school gamers this trip down memory lane is worth the low price of admission, but for others it'll get tiresome quick.
    • 80 Metascore
    • 95 Critic Score
    Gran Turismo 5 Prologue
    The graphics in GT5: Prologue are even better than "Crysis."

    Okami
    If you missed the game the first time around, this is the perfect opportunity to experience an innovative and expertly designed title. [May 2008, p.83]
    • 87 Metascore
    • 90 Critic Score
    Ikaruga
    Unless you're a diehard shooter fan it'll give you a beating worse than the one Shane Falco took in the '96 Sugar Bowl, but if you have the skills and are up to the challenge this is a must own.

    Assassin's Creed: Director's Cut Edition
    The real meat of this Director's Cut, however, comes in the form of new content, although sadly, there are no new storylines or assassination targets.
    • 58 Metascore

    TiQal
    A puzzle game has to be challenging in order for it to be addictive but TiQal gives players too many chances.
    • 72 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Dark Sector
    Dark Sector isn't a bad game but its considerable potential is squandered thanks to some iffy design decisions and inconsistent gameplay.
    • 68 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Viking: Battle for Asgard
    The action does deliver its fair share of thrills, but its repetitive and simple nature quickly wears thin.
    • 74 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Naruto: Ultimate Ninja 3
    Regardless of its flaws, the depth of Naruto: Ultimate Ninja 3 gives fans good reason to dust off their PS2s and jump around.
    • 65 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Opoona
    Though Opoona is original and exciting, there are too many problems for it to be anything more than an interesting diversion. [May 2008, p.84]
