The game controls wonderfully, and there's plenty of areas to explore. However, as usual there are some severe camera issues.- GameShark

Just like the big budget, small brained sci-fi action movies it emulates, it won't leave you with any lasting memories, but it will entertain you nonetheless.- GameShark

The audio leaves a little to be desired. It’s your standard generic racing soundtrack.- GameShark

I think what bugs me the most about this game is that I had my original expectations set pretty darned low before it came out in the hopes of being easily-impressed, and sadly, it ended up meeting many of these low expectations.- GameShark

It’s impossible to review the PS3 version without looking over at the PC and 360 editions, which are both clearly superior games. Why pay that kind of money for a PS3 game with poor controls and graphics when the same game can be had for a better price on other platforms?- GameShark

Like Trenched before it, Rock of Ages offers a fresh, action-oriented twist on the tower defense genre, along with a welcome, zany aesthetic. It's a curiosity, for sure, but if you enjoy the offbeat, you cannot go wrong here. Hats off to Atlus yet again for bringing something new and interesting to the table.- GameShark

I was honestly expecting a really neat experience out of Scrapland, but the tedium and ultimate lack of innovation just left me flustered.- GameShark

Still, the game retails at $20 and offers a far more satisfying level of capital ship space combat than any other game I've seen released over the last year.- GameShark

The makers of Majesty 2 call your heroes “somewhat obnoxious subordinates.” That is an understatement. Their stubbornness makes this terribly challenging RTS, at times, nearly impossible.- GameShark

Though Brothers in Arms DS is admittedly short and has only a 'barely-there' multiplayer component the single-player gameplay is involving and the engine shows off what the DS is capable of doing.- GameShark

An okay action game for the average Joe Gamer, and an outstanding collection of extra baubles for fans of the series still lamenting its demise.- GameShark

Oddly enough, the game could be considered the kid's version of "Metal Gear Solid." Replace the soldiers with Sam, and the weapons with blow dryers and lettuce heads and you get the idea.- GameShark

Grand Ages: Rome will win no prizes for cleverness or originality, though the military subgame is better than we are used to in this genre. It is mostly a surprising refinement in a series that has been mostly bland and pointless.- GameShark

A perfect way to get turn based strategy gaming onto the 360. It is easy enough for anyone to pick up and play, but has some of the strategy genre staples that will get people deeper into the hobby.- GameShark

Does a good job of following the film closely and offers a lot of cool film extras that everyone will enjoy. While the gameplay isn't perfect and probably could have used a little more depth, what is there is great for youngsters and marginally entertaining for adults.- GameShark

Tony Hawk's Proving Ground is a game that is stuck in the rut of its predecessors.- GameShark

GripShift is one of the best XBLA racing games available. The game is just too damn varied, wacky, and all around fun to summarize it any other way, and the feature-packed content makes it well worth the 800 point price tag.- GameShark

Yes, the hide-and-seek multiplayer gameplay is alluring and incredibly immersive thanks to the graphics and well-done audio presentation, but the amount of effort put into detailing the game's back story and the 'briefing' for each level makes me feel a plot-driven singleplayer component would have been well justified.- GameShark

The only real problem with this in depth beginning is that it sets the expectation that the choices you make here are going to have some affect on the game’s story.- GameShark

Don't get me wrong, Borderlands is still one of the best co-op experiences in gaming and the mix of player classes and relentless stream of enemies is very easy to slip back into, however with the ability to play more than one playthrough of the main game and all of the DLC packs, if all you want to do is shoot high level dudes, you don't need to pay another ten bucks to do so.- GameShark

The game does continue on in the Tales style, but the bulk of the content is only average.- GameShark

The game delivers entertaining - although sometimes frustrating, sometime hilarious and sometimes jaw dropping gameplay, and with a small bit of patience, it ends up being an amusing and for the most part, an enjoyable experience.- GameShark

It's initially quite good, until the horrible story and unnecessary puzzles drag it down.- GameShark

Endless Ocean is a unique experience that showcases the Wii in a whole new way, and at $29.99, the game represents a good value. You’ll never have the same dive twice, and it’s nice to have a game the kids can play where a shark won’t accidentally eat them.- GameShark

So, while Test Drive: Eve Of Destruction has an almost absurd number of car crashing event variations and lots of vehicles to use, it is not going to be a cross-over hit with players that are not already predisposed to liking demolition derby driving games.- GameShark

One gorgeous looking game and would be hard to find a 3D fighter with a more pleasing style anywhere else but there just isn’t enough meat found in the game to sink your teeth into and keep it playable over and over.- GameShark

The combat part of the game is pretty nice (but not perfect), and as we mentioned earlier, many of the game's key components are weak or just plain bad. In the end Sudeki feels like an incomplete RPG experience that needed a lot more development time.- GameShark
