    Here we have a game that compiles seven barely-different shoot 'em up games into one Wii disk, so the only way you're going to like it at all is if you like the original Metal Slug. None of the sequels have done anything particularly different, and every one of them has a ton of throw-backs to the original.

    Dancing and singing simply takes too much coordination, and the steps aren't timed well enough with the music to make them feel as natural as they should've.

    For fans of Clive Barker, Jericho could provide some degree of entertainment, and as we stated at the beginning of this review, it's not totally devoid of rewards. At the same time, it's difficult to recommend a game with so many lackluster elements in a world full of Gears of Wars and BioShocks (both of which managed to be scarier than Jericho).

    Since this is a kid's game, it's not terribly long or difficult. Even so, it's a pretty decent romp. The kiddies will enjoy seeing more Robinsons goofiness, and you won't mind picking up the controller to help them through the occasional tough part.

    The brevity and ease of its single-player campaign and the lack of substance in its multiplayer combine to make for a relatively unsatisfying experience.
    • 67 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Not a bad game, especially when compared to the mediocre A Wonderful Life, but it stays too much within the traditional rules of the series, without trying anything different on the new handheld.

    It does take advantage of the 360's power to deliver the nicest looking iteration of the game, but questionable gameplay set-up, quirky AI, and lackluster online play drag things down. This version is slightly more playable than its PS3 counterpart, but only slightly.

    Sure, fans of Dirk and the Dragon's Lair series will enjoy the game on a different level than most, but with its inherent gameplay issues, rescuing Princess Daphne really boils to down an exercise in frustrating trial-and-error gaming only made worse by flawed technical aspects.

    The game's reliance on padding is its biggest sin. Since there are very few environments, the designers force you to explore every nook and cranny of each one repeatedly, from every direction.

    • 59 Critic Score
    Considering the amount of detail that clearly went into designing the lush landscapes, enormous environments, and character art for this game, it's really a shame that the fun factor seems like less than an afterthought.

    Unfortunately, Scooby Doo gets so bogged down in unfolding its linear narrative and conveying the differences of its main characters that it never really gets around to being fun.
    • 61 Metascore
    • 59 Critic Score
    The game falls short of its potential, serving more as a sort of interactive blueprint for a few decent episodes that would probably be more entertaining on TV.
    • 71 Metascore
    • 59 Critic Score
    More aggravating than fun, a hassle really is the best way to describe this middling platformer.
    • 47 Metascore
    • 59 Critic Score
    It's the worst kind of tie-in, combining a feeble license with feeble game design, and expecting gamers to pay $50 for the privilege of suffering through the collective ineptitude.
    • 38 Metascore
    • 59 Critic Score
    The numerous lackluster features that run rampant in Attack of the Clones prove that it's just a reckless padewan with limited knowledge of the Force.
    • 67 Metascore
    • 59 Critic Score
    A flawed, boring game design that fails to capitalize on the inherent coolness of its theme and character.
    • 63 Metascore
    • 59 Critic Score
    Too many movie clips and too little gameplay.
    • 55 Metascore
    • 58 Critic Score
    A mediocre average effort, falling short of the mark set by Twisted Metal and its heartier clones.
    • 48 Metascore
    • 58 Critic Score
    The lack of manageable control and the nearly on-rails gameplay are just two of the sorest sore thumbs that stick out, which if fixed could have made the game at least halfway enjoyable.
    • 54 Metascore
    • 58 Critic Score
    An improvement over "Real War," but only in parts. It's still a clumsy game to play with a major frustration factor.
    • 55 Metascore
    • 58 Critic Score
    This expansion seems to ignore most of what was good in the original and instead concentrate on fast-paced, frustrating, and nearly mindless action.
    • 69 Metascore
    • 58 Critic Score
    It's a golf game with strippers, but its gameplay won't be getting a huge tip.
    • 62 Metascore
    • 58 Critic Score
    The problem is that for a sequel, it does nothing to enhance the gameplay found in its predecessor, sans a few new moves and match types.
    • 53 Metascore
    • 58 Critic Score
    Such a faithful port of the original that it even reproduces the disappointment many of us felt oh those many years ago when we realized that there was not a lot of gameplay beneath the clever film-like experience.
    • 57 Metascore
    • 58 Critic Score
    A barely passable "Diablo" mod with all the weaknesses of the original game and few of the strengths.
    • 66 Metascore
    • 58 Critic Score
    Any sense of coolness quickly evaporates as soon as you pick up a controller as Jet X2O suffers from a control scheme that is twitchier than a two year old on speed.
    • 56 Metascore
    • 58 Critic Score
    A mediocre effort, falling short of the mark set by "Twisted Metal" and its heartier clones.
    • 57 Metascore
    • 58 Critic Score
    Basically a step down from the original console games ... which weren't all that great to start with.
    • 64 Metascore
    • 58 Critic Score
    A disappointing expansion for Heroes IV. The few new items available could've easily been available for free, while the biggest change to the game - multiplayer -- is already free.
    • 68 Metascore
    • 58 Critic Score
    A jack of all trades and a master of none. Although it offers variety, it doesn't do anything so well that you'd want to play it again.
