    Metroid Prime 3: Corruption
    While the game isn't littered with NPCs, there's a lot of interaction with fellow bounty hunters and objectives given from outside sources. It seems like this and the multi-planet settings were both added to make the game feel more like an action-adventure than an adventure-action title, which is a shame since it flies in the face of what made Metroid one of the best franchises in gaming.

    Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon Advanced Warfighter 2
    Overall, if you liked the first GRAW, you can look forward to more excellent military shooter action, with excellent multiplayer features.

    Two Worlds
    Those who have been waiting for a quality role-playing will be sorely disappointed, and anyone brave enough to search for the positive aspects in Two Worlds may find something to satiate their appetite, but finding those good aspects takes far too much effort than it should.

    BioShock
    What if a game's narrative was as intricate and as immersive as its graphics? What if as much attention went into dialogue and atmosphere as went into pixel shaders and high-resolution textures? What then? Ladies and gentlemen, the answer is BioShock, one of the most playable, thought-provoking, and just downright impressive games to emerge on a home console since, well, ever.

    Jeanne d'Arc
    However, what it does right it does well, and it doesn't weigh you down with some of the more cumbersome aspects it shares with other titles in the strategy RPG genre. [Sep 2007, p.86]
    • 56 Metascore
    • 40 Critic Score
    Dragoneer's Aria
    Repetitive to the point of brain damaging; and a few giant leaps in enemy difficulty will have you cursing the fact that save points are at the beginning of each area.
    • 77 Metascore
    • 75 Critic Score
    Brain Age 2: More Training in Minutes a Day
    However, don't expect too much more content than new tests and more Sudoku grids. [Sep 2007, p.80]
    • 58 Metascore
    • 40 Critic Score
    Dungeons & Dragons Tactics
    Even dedicated role-players are better off with a pencil and some paper.
    • 86 Metascore
    • 95 Critic Score
    Shin Megami Tensei: Persona 3
    At the end of the day, Persona 3 is an engaging title that truly pushes genre conventions in an exciting way. [Sep 2007, p.82]
    • 70 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Luminous Arc
    It's a decent enough game but it isn't the grand strategy RPG experience that we've all been waiting for. [Sep 2007, p.84]
    • 66 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Heroes of Mana
    Overall, Heroes of Mana is a nice enough diversion, but it's hard to see what Square Enix was trying to do with this title. [Sep 2007, p.84]

    Madden NFL 08
    The definitive football game to buy this season.
    • 76 Metascore

    Madden NFL 08
    While Xbox 360 and PS3 owners get a slick upgrade over Madden '07, Wii owners get a mediocre and lackluster version. Diehard fans and series n00bs alike should avoid the Wii version, as it's inferior in just about every single way.

    Boogie
    Pros: Easy, accessible fun. Song list is varied and interesting. Cons: You can't sing and dance at the same time, there's no online play and the replay value is low.
    • 76 Metascore

    Brave Story: New Traveler
    With a lighthearted story, stellar graphics and an all-around solid presentation, New Traveler has a lot going for it.
    • 83 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Picross DS
    It's a good little title that's enjoyable but ultimately of limited appeal. [Sep 2007, p.80]
    • 79 Metascore
    • 100 Critic Score
    Mario Strikers Charged
    A phenomenal addition to the Wii's library and will rival GoldenEye 64 in terms of the exhilarating multiplayer experiences that it offers up. Don't turn your nose up at it just because you don't like soccer or you'll be missing out on one of the best gaming experiences around. Now, bring on Super Smash Bros. Brawl!

    Alien Syndrome
    It's a passable single-player experience but if you can find some friends to play with, it just might help you kill an hour or two here and there.
    • 63 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Final Fantasy II
    These complaints aside, Final Fantasy II is yet another great addition to the PSP's slowly improving library and really shows off the care and attention that Square Enix puts into its remakes. [Aug 2007, p.88]

    Guitar Hero Encore: Rocks the 80s
    If you're just looking for new songs to play, you should probably just wait for more downloadable tracks to hit the 360 version.
    • 84 Metascore

    Bomberman Live
    Bomberman is the rare game that feels as natural after a round of Uno as it does after a Gears of War deathmatch. The action could come a bit quicker, but when it does, it's still a thrill after all these years.
    • 66 Metascore
    • 85 Critic Score
    Tales of the World: Radiant Mythology
    Honestly, Radiant Mythology does absolutely nothing new, especially if you've played Tales games before, but I found myself have a lot of fun hacking and slashing away through beautiful dungeons.

    Hot Shots Tennis
    It's easy enough to pick up and play immediately. It's fast paced enough to keep you engaged for several matches. And, if you happen to dig simple games you will probably have a good time with Hot Shots Tennis. But, don't expect this game to be a pillar in your collection of games and don't expect to remember you own it after a few weeks.
    • 67 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    PaRappa the Rapper
    Pick it up if you're buying it for the original experience of PaRappa the Rapper, for the classic gameplay that is still...classic. Think of it as retro--not the next hot thing--and enjoy it as an episode of games gone by.
    • 75 Metascore

    All-Pro Football 2K8
    The game does a surprisingly good job of going up against Madden '08. It isn't going to unseat the king of all video football games this season but that's the beauty of sports: there's always next year.
    • 68 Metascore
    • 65 Critic Score
    Smash Court Tennis 3
    Sure it has a ton of great options and modes, but it simply doesn't have the action packed excitement of the Virtua Tennis series.
    • 64 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    Project Sylpheed: Arc of Deception
    Project Sylpheed is one of those games you desperately want to like, but falls short in almost every category.
    • 88 Metascore
    • 95 Critic Score
    Ninja Gaiden Sigma
    Ninja Gaiden Sigma is the best version released so far and that's saying a lot considering how awesome the other versions were.
    • 38 Metascore
    • 35 Critic Score
    Vampire Rain
    In truth, the biggest mystery here isn't how vampires evolved and rose to power, but how any publisher could justify a $60 price tag for a tiresome exercise in imitation and slipshod execution.
    • 52 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Transformers: The Game
    Though this is one of the better Transformer games around, chances are you'll have more fun dressing up in a cardboard box and beat-boxing as you pretend to be Sound Wave.
