    It nails the show's insanely enjoyable brand of humor, but can't quite pull out a gameplay design to match.

    A visually breathtaking platformer, but unsatisfying puzzles make it less enchanting than it should be.

    The tennis is merely average, but Sega Superstars Tennis' challenges and minigames are creatively done and a lot of fun.

    Blacklight: Retribution doesn't stand out from the crowd, but this free-to-play shooter offers a decent amount of bang for your non-buck.

    Tedium and aimlessness cast a shadow on Opoona's glowing charm.
    • 57 Metascore
    • 65 Critic Score
    Everything positive that has been added to the game doesn't do anything to counteract the mechanical artificial intelligence and visual problems that plague much of it.
    • 69 Metascore
    • 65 Critic Score
    A decent first effort at simulating the chosen sport of wizards, it falls short of its promise primarily because of sluggish controls and shallow gameplay.

    • 65 Critic Score
    Scott Pilgrim vs. The World is a fun throwback to a simpler era, but visibility issues and a lack of online co-op get in the way of your enjoyment.

    Touch-screen controls will help you achieve Zen with this large collection of tangram-style puzzles.

    March Madness 08 has some new moves, but it's still not ready for the big dance.

    Enjoy a fun fantasy adventure and addictive farm management without having to wake up at dawn.

    X-Blades is a competent action game, but it lacks the fine touch that could have made it something special. It just cannot seem to make the most of its solid backbone.

    Driver: Parallel Lines is a mostly competent GTA clone, but the dull storyline and remedial gameplay prevent it from being recommendable.

    • 65 Critic Score
    If you can forgive the game's dated-looking graphics, its rather basic gameplay model, and its comparative level of ease--which is, admittedly, a lot to forgive--you can have a good time with Serious Sam: Next Encounter.

    • 65 Critic Score
    Captain America bashes enemies with style, but a dull story and bland visuals keep Super Soldier from being a star-spangled success.

    • 65 Critic Score
    An interesting time-shifting mechanic and fun-to-shoot weapons can't make up for the rest of TimeShift's run-of-the-mill first-person shooter gameplay.

    It's primarily the strength of its cast and its presentation, not the strength of its gameplay, that sustains you through the many long hours of this quest.

    Captain America bashes enemies with style, but a dull story and bland visuals keep Super Soldier from being a star-spangled success.

    FIFA Street 3 has plenty of style but not quite enough substance to justify the price of admission.
    • 62 Metascore
    • 65 Critic Score
    It nails the show's insanely enjoyable brand of humor, but can't quite pull out a gameplay design to match.

    The End Is Nigh serves up light beat-'em-up fare with a Watchmen flavor. Those hungry for anything substantial will be disappointed.

    Saw
    This flawed horror adventure gets the atmosphere right, though it isn't as sharp as it could have been.

    • 65 Critic Score
    The Simpsons Game is exceptionally funny, but the hobbled Wii control scheme sucks out what little fun there was to be had with the gameplay.
    • 71 Metascore
    • 65 Critic Score
    Unfortunately, this combination doesn't work nearly as well as its NHL predecessor, and, while the end result can be fun, overall it's a pretty big leap backward for the Blitz series.

    Realistic animations and a satisfying two-player mode make Backbreaker: Vengeance fun for a while, but that quickly fades away.
    • 55 Metascore
    • 65 Critic Score
    Tides of Destiny makes several good changes to the Rune Factory formula, making for a fun adventure in fantasy farming.
    • 70 Metascore
    • 65 Critic Score
    Tomb Raider Underworld can be an enjoyable adventure, but it’s marred by bugs, camera issues, and ill-conceived Wii extras.
