    For big TNA fans the game will meet the necessary requirements, but for those who seek a total wrestling experience (great storyline, detailed create-a-wrestler mode, etc.), unfortunately those standards won't be met.

    Tetris Splash is an obvious attempt at wrapping nickel and dime distribution with a safe and nostalgic piece of gaming history. Don't be fooled, this game is not worth 800 Microsoft Points.

    Puzzle Guzzle makes an attempt to bring something unique to the puzzle genre, but the final project just lacks the compulsory effect that a truly great puzzle game should have. This is not a game I expect anyone to play for hours on end.

    Not for veteran gamers. Truly engaging puzzle-solving and high quality presentation are absent from the game, but its accessible control style and somewhat interesting plot make it at least playable.

    The lack of options in gameplay, and even aesthetics, provide an experience that all-too-quickly invokes a sense of title completion; experiencing everything a title has to offer.

    If you are an avid American Chopper fan, you may be more forgiving of the game's faults than someone who is not familiar with the show. But anyway you cut it, American Chopper 2: Full Throttle, needs to go back to the shop for some major re-fabrication.

    It's very obvious Raven had nothing to do with this game, and longtime fans of the series will notice in the first 20 minutes this isn't close to what the first Soldier of Fortune was. Who knew that gratuitous violence could be made boring?

    More time in the oven (it may be years yet) may prove a glorious revolution. For now, the heinously awkward movement controls are as low-rent as the storyline.

    Underdeveloped niche title will only appeal to a special few.

    Eureka 7 Vol. 2: The New Vision suffers from a plethora of problems, ranging from bad combat, to a corny story, to a bunch of un-fixed bugs. As an interactive anime, however, you're getting ~5 hours or so of new video about the Eureka 7 universe.

    A game with a lot of promise--it just doesn't deliver. For puzzler fans, this game isn't even worth playing at a friend's house.

    Mario Party 8 is probably the series' biggest step backwards in its lifetime, and after eight years of consistency from the franchise, this addition falls way too short to recommend a purchase.

    As there have been many films adaptations thus far in video gaming-and most of them have never failed to disappoint to some degree-I shouldn't be surprised by this particular title's shortcomings. However, with a cast including Bruce Campbell and a solid movie to draw from, I hoped for more.

    This game is narrowly focused towards collectible card game fans. Even hardcore followers will see that playing the video game version falls way short of live play against real people with real cards. As for the rest of the gamers, the game won't be.

    An easily forgettable game that is sure to get lost among the holiday season's high profile games.

    Alien Syndrome has a lot of promise, but the lack of a decent story and the poorly implemented Wii controls hamper the experience. If you're a fan of the original, get this on the PSP instead.

    Other grand strategy games like Napoleon: Total War or even Empire: Total War do what Rise of Prussia does, but better, so it makes you wonder why this game sticks to antiquated gameplay features and complex micromanagement that just isn't very much.

    It's the original version with an awful new one tacked on. This is the very definition of cash-in.

    The game tries to reach out to more gamers but fails completely. AI pathfinding is broken, gameplay aspects are barely implemented and performance is a stinker. Stay away from this game.

    Only young girls or parents will value this game. It's family fun, and obviously aimed at the pre-teen girl demographic. A nice gift for a child; not so much for a boyfriend.

    A game that isn't a whole lot of fun, because the basics just aren't executed properly.

    These battles in the Pokemon universe need to be rethought by Nintendo, because Battle Revolution shows their age.

    This is what happens when an international game goes wrong. This game managed to get just about everything wrong about an RPG. Get the movies or books instead for the thrill.

    One Piece: Pirates Carnival is nothing short of a poorly done Mario Party remake.

    It's good to see that Duke Nukem Forever finally made it past the development finish line, but the race to get there clearly took its toll on Duke. He started limping toward the end goal around 2007, and he's looking and feeling pretty rough.

    Godzilla: Unleashed seems like it could be a surprising hit for kids. There's no real reason to get this game with all the other awesome fighters out there, but it is easy for children.

    This is one of the worst football games I've ever played. If you crave arcade action football, go pick up one of the original NFL Street games.
