If Jackass the show were as bland as Jackass the game it would have been cancelled after one episode.

Those two words, wasted opportunity, are Soldiers of Misfortune's M.O. Everything about the game felt like a rush job, a an oversight related to developers who maybe just didn't care enough.

Dead Space Ignition is not worth the purchase unless you want to get the unlockable content for Dead Space 2, but if you want the unlocks then you may as well just pre-order Dead Space 2 and get Ignition for free. Play the game long enough to secure your unlockables and then go play something else.

Overall, M&Ms Adventure comes across as another generic platformer that we know all too well.

It’s hard to recommend this game to anyone, even fans of the movie. You get six easy puzzles and six frustrating puzzles for your money, with no incentive to play through the game a second time. You’re better off simply watching the movie again to get your penguin fix.

Unless you want your party to be a slumber party, let Vegas Party stay in Vegas.

Buy some real beer with your money instead, you'll have more fun.

The real test of intelligence here is whether or not you are smart enough to avoid this game.

Unfortunately The Asskickers doesn't kick much ass.

While not the most ground breaking stealth title, Vampire Rain is worth a try for a stealth fan, even with its flaws.

It might be a budget title, but that's not an excuse to release such a mess of a game. What price would you place on spending your leisure time in a confused state of frustration?

Godzilla Unleashed: Double Smash for the Nintendo DS is a disgrace and literally no one should buy or even think about this game.

The game is so bad it actually makes me angry.

Thundercats looks bad, it plays bad and it drags a fantastic cartoon reboot's name through the mud.

A bad day for L.A., an even worse day for gamers.

If you are a huge DBZ fan, wait for this one's price to drop before getting it; if you aren't stay far, far away from this one.

Chicken Shoot doesn’t have anything going for it that would make it remotely recommendable to anyone. Avoid it like you would a chicken carrying SARS.

The Incredible Maze's name is only half right – it's a maze but it's hardly incredible.

Follow this general rule - if a game appears on a Nintendo system and you've never heard of it, or the company that produced it, steer clear.

Even the most die-hard fans of the series will quickly become disappointed and bored to tears soon thereafter. Very little effort was put into the game’s design or implementation, so you shouldn't put any effort into buying it.

Buying this game will turn your neck red with anger when you realize that you've just thrown your money away.

The big truck has inspired a rather simple and decidedly small game.

There are plenty of problems and no redeeming qualities in Call for Heroes, and it simply is not worth your time and money.

Everything about this game is poor - control, AI, graphics, missions - just about any game aspect you can think of, Stalin vs. Martians butchers it. This one is best left to fans of Stalin or of the planet Mars ... just kidding.

Well, ladies and gentlemen we have a new winner, or loser as the case may be. Legends of Wrestling II is the worst game I have ever played.

Anyone who did not play the original game in the arcades is sure to be dumbfounded by its status as a classic.

Angels? Angels from hell sent to torture poor gamers perhaps...

You'll get more face time with a Hooters Girl if you go down to your local Hooters for lunch.

It plays just like the classic plastic toy, except that you'll get bored with it even faster.

Save yourself the trouble and just say "No Deal".

With a few unlockable characters to its name that you can get in about two hours of play there is little to really keep you entertained here. Even a rental is too good for this.

Shoot the game, not the chickens.

A lot of Star Wars gaming goodness in one package.

Overall, The Lost Admiral Returns doesn’t have enough going for it to hook a new generation of strategy gamers. While there are strategy games that can stand the test of time, The Lost Admiral Returns is not one of them. This fleet could use a modernization overhaul.

If this is an ultra adventurous experience, I shudder to think what average mundane minigolf is like.

Shells of Tedium would be a more appropriate title.

Luxor: Pharaoh's Challenge is enjoyable enough but doesn't justify its higher price.

While it is a solid puzzle game it doesn't really do anything to excel or stand out in a cluttered genre.

Betty Boop is better off in the unemployment line than she is working this double shift.

Nostalgia aside, Alien Force is really a pretty awful game, and certainly not one worth paying full price for.

You're better off saving your money and playing some of the million or so free Flash games that can be found on the internet.

Take a pass on this lackluster studio tour.

Overall, most people will skip Popstar Guitar without a second thought, but until junior's hands grow to the size needed for a real guitar controller, this is a somewhat adequate solution.

It's going to take even more M&Ms candy to keep you awake while playing this title when compared to the Wii version.

A competent, workmanlike game that never surprises you. If you're looking for a new computer-based card game, this could be it, especially if you don't want to cough up the money for something like Eye of Judgment.

Big props for offering something new for poker fans, but you must go elsewhere for a real poker game and higher production values. At least the career mode is good for one playthrough.

Chicken Blaster takes a player through eight stages of shooting nothing but chickens and it's about as fun as it sounds.

The inclusion of a single player (bot practice) mode is something I always appreciate because I don't have to drop into a game and have my butt handed to me for the first 46 matches while I figure out what gun I'm holding.

Frobot is about $10 and despite some rough graphics is worth the price based on a silly vibe with lots of smiles tossed in.

It's all pretty repetitive and unexciting, and there's not really any motivation to keep running the same boring races over and over again on the same tracks. There are far better racers out there, even on the lowly GBA.

If you want to visit the world of Scarygirl, stick to the book.

This is one mash-up that will have Portal and Defense Grid fans singing with glee.

It's a chipwreck alright...

Traditionalist puzzle gamers should probably take a pass on Luxor Evolved, but those who enjoy the arcade classics - or their modern remixes - will probably enjoy it. However, keep in mind that it may be the kind of game that's good for a few hours of play, but not something that you'll come back to time and again when you're looking for a puzzle challenge.

If you love all things hidden object the novel setting will probably make the game enjoyable enough for you, but if you enjoy a good puzzle you should probably look a challenge elsewhere.

There's nothing that The Old Clockmaker's Riddle does really wrong, the match-3 gameplay is a proven formula and it's competently implemented here. However, the game doesn't add anything that's really different to distinguish itself from all of the other match-3 games available. You may as well just stick with Bejeweled.

There's some Bengling tapping fun to be had with the game, but there are also some pretty big flaws that ultimately bring the game down.

Evilot is enjoyable enough for those who like lane defense games, but the potentially confusing upgrade mechanic will be a turn off for those who just play an occasional game of Plants vs. Zombies.

I really enjoyed my time with Moscow Dash. The content is cringe-worthy at first, but quickly forgotten when visuals and gameplay get their hooks in. The sole bit of IAP makes little sense, but the base game is great fun.

Sewer Escape has a nice presentation, with bright, colorful cartoon like graphics and a fun sense of humor, and the game does what it does well enough. The problem is that it doesn't do that much.

Overall, I enjoyed Nun Attack: Run and Gun. I like its style and appreciate the challenge, and I like the way that it provides some fun in a bite-sized package that makes it a perfect phone game that you can play while you need to kill a few minutes of time. If you're the type that has to unlock everything, though, be prepared to put a lot of time or money into the game.

I've played all of the major titles released with the Xbox One, and the one that I've had the most fun with, the one that I keep going back to, is Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag. If you get only one game with your shiny new Xbox One console, make it this one.

Save the Carrot Pro quickly wears out its welcome, and you'll probably want to delete it off of your phone or iPad within five minutes of playing it for the first time. Even if games lasted longer than a few seconds, there's not enough here to hold your interest for much longer than that.

The game has a colorful animated look to it and the presentation is nice, so if you think that this sort of game may appeal to you, you'll enjoy your initial time with it.

Unfortunately, this "Epic Quest" is epic in name only.

A so-so game that would have been really good twenty years ago.

Wizard's Lizard is rogue-like like no other.

A great big slice of sugary puzzle gaming goodness.

Here's the real spoiler alert: nothing in Spoiler Alert lives up to its novel concept.

Plenty of atmosphere, but short on fun.

As such, it's not for the general gaming public and the casual gamer should stay very, very far away from it. On the other hand, those who like a good challenge, thrive in the face of difficulty, and have the patience to die a thousand deaths may find a lot to love here.

I found it to be the kind of game that starts of quickly, hits a difficult mid-game, and then leads to elation as the solution falls into place ' followed by an almost irresistible urge to just at least have a peek at the next puzzle that inevitably leads to the desire to just go ahead and complete it.

For Dragon Ball fans, there is plenty to love about Xenoverse. I loved the story and character creation, and the loot and mission systems made playing through a joy that bordered on a compulsion. All those aspects add up to the best Dragon Ball game ever made, but the 3D fighting and movement knock the game down just enough to set it squarely behind Super Dragon Ball Z as my favorite game based on my favorite franchise.

Overall, Gunpowder is an enjoyable, and rather unique, physics puzzler. If you enjoy a bit of a challenge, and being rewarded for your efforts with a pyrotechnical display, you'll want to fire up Gunpowder.

The nature of the games means that they really only entertain the first time that you see each one, so repetition very rapidly sets in and your interest will wane just as rapidly. So much so, that you may not even be interested in playing the same micro games over and over again simply to unlock the rest of them.

The Executioner drops focus on story and scare factor for some fun action gameplay with The Keeper creature from the main story of The Evil Within.

There are some good ideas at the core of Interplanetary, and you're initial time with the game will be enjoyable. However, the weapons phase of the game is a poorly designed exercise in frustration that will have you soon giving up on the game.

The game is good for a little bit of mindless fun ' the crazy ricochets and exploding zombies are entertaining ' but there's not a lot of challenge to setting up your shots.

Strategy gaming stripped to its core and flung out among the stars.

The mix of Metroidvania style gameplay and bullet hell boss fights is novel and interesting. I did enjoy the boss fights, but the stretches in between weren't as much fun.

I had fun with Hero Defense and I liked the game's art style and tongue-in-cheek storyline. The RPG elements and upgradable hub area are nice touches as well.

Overall the enjoyable aspects of the game outweigh its flaws, and I enjoyed the game. At its core it is a jigsaw puzzle game, so if that's not your thing Glass Masquerade won't have anything to offer you. If you do enjoy jigsaws, though, it's easy enough to recommend the game based on the artwork alone.

That's pretty much all there is to the game, building up your power-generating resources, purchasing a special item, and then seeing where the story takes you next. Sometimes a little gameplay element is added in, such as trying to drop probes on a specific spot on a planet from orbit, but for the most part the game will just run itself with occasional input from you. If this sounds like it may be boring to you, you're probably right and should avoid SPACEPLAN. On the other hand, if you're willing to spend a few dollars on a game that's a bit unusual, you may find yourself enjoying the experience.

It's the kind of game well-suited to mobile but that serves as a quick break between more serious tasks when you're on your computer. What it does it does well enough, but it doesn't do a lot. If you're looking for an unusual and quirky time-waster, its low price and simple gameplay make Cooking Witch a good choice. If you have a short attention span or get bored easily, you'll probably get five or ten minutes out of Cooking Witch and then never play it again.

Much like Scorpion in the original Injustice, Sub-Zero has been toned down from his usual MK appearance but he is a lot of fun to play in Injustice 2. You can't pin a player down with an ice klone anymore since the ice klone will not form if Sub-Zero performs the move too close to his opponent and he needs meter in order to freeze his opponent from long range so his game plan has changed quite a bit from his MKX appearance. He retains his light damage gameplay and he is still a defensive fighter, so MK fans will be familiar with him, but he still has a different feel to him which makes him more appealing to play.

A few casts of your line make Fishing Master an enjoyable enough VR demo, the kind of game you'll fire up when you have friends over who haven't tried VR before. It's not the kind of game that you'll sit down and play for an hour, though. It's just too simple and too repetitive to hold your interest for long.

Debris is by no means is a heavy hitter among other games this year, but does lend itself to a very questionable and interesting experience. If this game had more immersive elements to it such as VR, then I would lean a little more in favor of recommending a play-through. If you are looking for a drawn-out mind bender this game is for you, but be sure to grab two copies and play with a friend.

There's some fun to be had with Mokoko's Qix-style gameplay, but that fun won't last for very long.

Project Resistance is overall a good companion online mode for the Resident Evil 3 remake rerelease, so be sure to check it out if you pick it up. Fans of Dead by Daylight should give it a try since it has a similar overall setup to that game, but it's very much its own game. At first Project Resistance doesn't seem like much, but after spending more time with it and learning how to get better at it, it actually is quite a fun game.

As much as I loved every part of Profane, the whole "time" thing really killed the entire experience. The bosses are truly memorable encounters, the graphics, story, music and gameplay are all excellent; but the "time" thing... it feels like watching anything past season 12 of The Simpsons. The spirit is there, and it is amusing, but something just doesn't work. In the case of The Simpsons, we don't really know what happened; in Profane's case, we know it was being a slave to the clock that took a great thing and killed it, in this reviewer's eyes at least. There is no doubt that Profane is a good, if not great game, and for a certain subset of audiences, it will be a speed run, ultra-difficult sensation. This reviewer, however, is on to less frustrating experiences.

If you're a fan of MK11, then you should already have Mortal Kombat 11: Aftermath, but if you're still on the fence about it, the added story is great and the three new characters are some of the best so far, so it's definitely worth a pickup.

If you enjoy roguelike games such as Prey's "Mooncrash", you'll most likely really enjoy The Persistence, but if you're not a fan of that style of gameplay this game most likely won't change your mind. It's highly addicting, but it can get frustrating with the continuous deaths you'll most likely suffer.

Cubers: Arena is not a Minecraft rip-off or lame cube game - it's a solid RPG arena with a refined indie style and lots of couch play possibility.

Honestly, talking a lot about ZAAM is giving away too much about it and for a game that is so short, it’s best to try it out for yourself, especially for a game with a bargain price upon release. Even with a short length, the game gets a lot accomplished in the way of exploration and story. There are many files to collect that give you backstory and the events that unfold as you find key items will piece together your memories and overall backstory. The game has multiple endings as well. It’s definitely worth a play-through for the curious and those that enjoy a good story.

The developers made sure to keep the overall fighting experience as the main focus and it moves at around 60fps most of the time. So long as you have a good controller or can use the joycons with fighting games really well, this is a decent version to play. Of course, the main highlight of the Switch version is the fact that it is portable, so you can play it on the go unlike any other console version. The online portion of the game is hard to review – since you’re playing on Switch, which is wi-fi focused, it’s hard to say whether the slowdown is from the connection or the actual netcode. I do get some matches that play pretty smoothly and some that have tons of slowdown, so it’s very up and down when it comes to online.

An overall good action game, but the “RPG” feel is weak with this one.

The game is a total mixed bag, but most of the bad parts are brought on by the performance issues from being on Nintendo Switch. It just seems like the game wasn’t fully optimized well for the system. If you plan on playing the game portable, you may not notice the problems as much, but the framerate still got to me at times, even in portable mode. Overall, Silver Chains is a decent survival horror game, but I’d recommend another version unless you plan on playing in portable mode all the time.

The game has a few jump scares here and there, but you hear the loud noise before you even see the actual scare. There were times where I didn’t know what the game was trying to show me – all I knew was that I got the jump scare noise and that I just “witnessed” a jump scare. The game does seem to have some secrets which could encourage a replay. For a budget title, the game is actually decent. Overall, it’s a 50/50 chance whether you’ll like this game or not. If the game was more expensive, it would be easier to lay down a lower score, but with its current price point and the fact that I stuck with it all the way through, it’s actually a decent title for the price.
