    Lost Sea is an overall fun survival game, but it has too many flaws that keep it from being as good as it could be.

    It can be too repetitive at times and too easy for gamers looking for challenge. However, the spooky theme and familiar Disney settings will make Haunted Mansion an enjoyable diversion for many.

    NBA Live 08 is a big improvement over prior next-gen versions of the game, but it still has a bit to go before it will truly feel next-gen.
    • 59 Metascore

    The main reason to play NBA 08: The Life v3 is not to play a basketball game but to get involved with The Life. If you're wanting a good "basketball" game there are better options.

    If you enjoy strategy games you’ll probably like WotR, although hardcore RTS gamers may find it to be just an average game and only a light challenge.

    So overall you have a LEGO game that for the most part sticks to the formula, feels like it is really stretching its source material to fit the mold, and introduces a new gimmick that's fun, but not as much fun as it could have been.

    Like the 100 meter dash, it's fun while it lasts but is over too quickly.

    To say I enjoyed Chroma Squad is a bit of an understatement; I really dove into the sim stuff. The battles, though on the simple side, keep the part of me who loves SRPG combat more than interested from beginning to end. The extremely linear progression of the game and the backgrounds left a lot to be desired, but Chroma Squad is still an easy, if not rabidly enthusiastic, recommendation to anyone who loves SRPGS, the Power Rangers or just wants something a bit on the strange side.

    Overall The Bigs 2 is fun in short doses for those who prefer an arcade-style baseball game, and very over-the-top arcade play at that.

    While not devoid of fun moments, overall Age of Booty feels more like an endurance match than a strategy game in which the first one to slip up loses.
    • 72 Metascore

    The ability to so easily change between creature types and the opportunity to concentrate on the creature's development are very nice additions to the game that should please those who simply wanted to interact with the game's incredible AI, unfettered by the incursions of rival gods.

    Mind Over Mutant doesn't mutate the standard platform game experience to stand out from the crowd.
    • 71 Metascore
    • 72 Critic Score
    It can be an enjoyable game, especially when you are just starting out to build your corporate empire. However, some gameplay quirks and the need for too much micromanagement will cause some players to lose interest in it before too long.

    Provides some fun racing action, but it's not outstanding.
    • 69 Metascore

    Ace in Action is not one of the best looking games out there and its gameplay is a bit on the derivative side, but overall it is a surprisingly enjoyable game.

    Agents of Mayhem is the kind of game that could have been great with a bit more work. The agents are a great group of playable characters and the mechanic of switching between agents as easily as you would switch between weapons in another shooter is a good one. Drop these agents into a lively open world with plenty to do and explore, a world like you'd find in a Saints Row game for example, and you'd have a really exciting game here. Unfortunately, personality alone is not enough.

    On the one hand, The Simpsons Game will keep you playing through to the end just to see how the story unfolds and so that you can see what the writers skewer next. On the other, the game makes you suffer for its art with its generic and somewhat frustrating platform gameplay mechanics.

    Puzzle fans will enjoy Luxor but its lack of variety limits its appeal to other gamers.

    Spending time with Mafia II is like visiting a studio back lot – it's a great looking recreation of a bygone era but there's not much behind the façade

    Blitz the League 2 takes the "No Fun" out of the "No Fun League".

    SNK Arcade Classics Vol. 1 moves onto the Wii with some better emulation and control options over the latter two making it a slightly more enjoyable experience.

    Obscure: Aftermath isn't without its flaws, but you could do much, much worse on a system that has had a criminal shortage of games as of late.
    • 75 Metascore

    One of the best looking space games out there. Unfortunately its gameplay can not match its eye-popping visuals... It just lacks the depth and hands on control strategy gamers expect from their games.
    • 73 Metascore
    • 71 Critic Score
    A somewhat entertaining diversion from the onslaught of current street racing games, but it does not take home any checked flags because of its lack of online play and questionable control.

    If you want a fun action game and don't care about the tale it has to tell, Birth By Sleep is a great choice. If you are a fan of the series, as I reluctantly am, the game is a no-brainer. If you are a PSP Go owner, that is Sony's finger poking you in the eye. No matter which category you fall into, I think you'll agree in hoping Square Enix has some new ideas for the inevitable Kingdom Hearts III, because what they've got now is pretty tired.

    LOSTMAGIC’s unique real-time battle system is weighed down by some frustrating issues, but it is an interesting game nonetheless.

    Just one big mistake away from being a great remake...

    It can feel slowly paced and has its annoyances – some of which are inherent to the genre – but if you’re looking for a casual game that plays as much as a story as it does a game, you’ll probably want to give this one a look.

    The scaled-down version of the Ghost Recon Advanced Warfighter console games is a fun little shooter in its own right.

    FlatOut 2 is a big improvement over the original game, but it's not quite ready for primetime yet.
