    The PlayStation 2 and Xbox version of NCAA Football 08 didn't get many new features this year, but it's still a great game if you don't own NCAA 07.

    2K football returns with solid gameplay and a new focus on classic players, though the roster isn't the only aspect of the game that feels old.

    Smash Court Tennis 3 is a decent game that plays it safe and doesn't bring much new to table.

    Tedious quests and little payoff make this Korean massively multiplayer online game a real grind.

    Even with some game-balance issues, ThreadSpace: Hyperbol is an interesting combination of action and tactics.

    A great story and likable characters make it easier to overlook Riviera's limited combat and exploration.

    Between its unlimited continues and crusty looks, you're probably only going to be interested in this game if you liked it back in 1989.

    It's still Sonic the Hedgehog, and though it's not quite the quintessential Sonic experience, it's still a classic.

    Project Sylpheed is a short and needlessly complicated space shooter that gets by on its cutscenes more than its gameplay.

    A once-great helicopter combat sim is still pretty good, if you don't mind the déjà vu.

    A few fun minigames don't make the watered-down story and tedious fetch quests tolerable.

    Speed and crazy difficulty make this Rainbow Six rip-off with a British accent immensely frustrating.

    Chicken Shoot is like Duck Hunt for idiots.

    Missile Command on Xbox Live Arcade only serves to illustrate that an analog stick can't replace a track ball.

    Puzzle problems and a terrible interface land Dead Reefs on the rocks.

    If you're a Ninja Gaiden enthusiast, you'll want to see the new chapters, reworked levels, and slicker graphics. And if for some reason you missed it before, this is a must-play game. The action is intense, focused, and certainly not for the faint of heart. It's also among the most satisfying in all of gaming and remains as awe-inspiring as ever, three years after its original release.

    Fanged killing machines and clunky level design make this vampiric sneaker a real pain in the neck.

    Floating adrift in the middle of the Pacific would rival the entertainment value of this strategyless strategy game.

    Cookie & Cream simultaneously blends 3D exploration with 2D minigames in a refreshing way, but the level layouts are bland and repetitive.

    While the racing is solid, it's tough to recommend Hot Wheels Ultimate Racing when so many other, similar games on the PSP offer more bang for your buck.

    Thanks to poor controls, a paltry list of game modes, and a lack of real-life players not named Rafael Nadal, Rafa Nadal Tennis double-faults in its Nintendo DS debut.

    If you have room in your heart for yet another Robotron clone, Super Stardust HD is a good addition to this well-worn genre.

    As a simple, yet effective translation of the German board game, Carcassonne proves an oddly addictive experience.

    Rainbow Six is reinvented and reinvigorated for a new age thanks to beautiful visuals and top-notch tactical shooting action.

    This action RPG from Quotix Software hits new lows in mind-numbing combat and ridiculously confusing level design.
