    Mortal Kombat
    Of course, if you're like the vast majority of the folks who wandered by my desk during the weeks that I played Mortal Kombat, you want to see one thing, and one thing only: utter carnage. And hey -- it's here in spades. Just try to remember that for once, Mortal Kombat is more than the sum of a few flying body parts.

    NBA Street Homecourt
    Where development did put in the time was in coming up with a logical and intuitive new control scheme that lets you showcase all the moves that Street vets expect.

    Monster Hunter Freedom 2
    Despite its kooky issues and demoralizing difficulty, Monster Hunter Freedom 2 has totally succeeded in becoming our go-to game for the PSP. Its huge world and endless supply of items and doodads are more than enough to occupy a player for months.

    ESPN NHL 2K5
    Where the game will put a huge smile on your face is in the number of mini-games you'll be able to play.

    Gun
    Thanks to one of the best storylines we've seen in quite a while (as well as a heaping helping of good old-fashioned violence), Gun isn't a gaming experience that we'll soon forget.

    Front Mission
    If you're new to the franchise and don't mind spending some quality hours shopping for mech legs, shields, and shoulder-mounted missile launchers, you'll have a game that'll keep you busy for a long time.

    LEGO Indiana Jones: The Original Adventures
    The game takes ample advantage of the DS' touch screen for some of the characters' unique skills, but fortunately it doesn't force you to use them.

    Siege of Avalon
    With this game's gradually revealed story of deception, treachery, and heroism, the age of good storytelling has returned. It doesn't come without a price, though -- be prepared to read. A lot.

    Bleach: The Blade of Fate
    It's okay to be a little wary, but unlike the previous poorly conceived anime-based games you've played, this one's the real deal.

    Silent Hill 4: The Room
    Overall I enjoyed Silent Hill 4 just as much as the previous games. Although the initially slower pace and more non-conventional puzzles might annoy some gamers, those who hang in there are in for a hellish treat well worthy of the creepy Silent Hill brand.

    Need for Speed: Most Wanted (2005)
    It's got more than enough fast-paced action to give gamers their adrenaline fix, and it does it with all sorts of visual style.

    WWE SmackDown vs. Raw 2007
    While it's undeniable that the age of the engine is showing (the flaws of the counter-reversal system in comparison to other wrestling titles really shows itself during online multiplayer), it's still a solid game to play.

    Gran Turismo: The Real Driving Simulator
    The game clearly leans backward rather than forward in some respects, but it bears repeating: What it does in the tiny PSP world, it does well.

    Capcom Classics Collection
    One of the best compilation discs on the store shelves.

    Valkyrie Profile 2: Silmeria
    When you finally master the photon system and can set just the right sealstones and break out the 100 hit combo to make what seemed like a near-impossible battle a relative piece of cake, you will feel good about it. If you enjoy console role-playing games for the gameplay, not the story, you and Silmeria may get along just fine.

    Outlaw Golf 2
    It's nice to see that Hypnotix didn't miss a beat when it came to staying true to the attitude of the original.

    From Dust
    It's a beautiful, poetic game that inspires creativity, despite its technical struggles.

    Battalion Wars
    Layered with outstanding gameplay, cutesy visuals, and spot-on sound effects. It's one title no self-respecting strategy fan should be without.

    Dance Dance Revolution SuperNOVA
    Surprisingly combining depth and simplicity, Konami will really have to up the ante on the next one.

    MLB Power Pros
    An excellent alternative to the other baseball games on the market, especially friendly to those who aren't very keen on sports but who may enjoy the strategic options that the game offers up.

    Bangai-O Spirits
    Although it's certainly not for everyone, Bangai-O Spirits is a well-made and extremely challenging game. It's great to see Treasure revive this title, and it works surprisingly well on the DS.

    Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning - The Legend of Dead Kel
    It's clear they had as much fun making The Legend of Dead Kel -- a big, bawdy adventure that's loaded down with loot -- as I had playing it.

    Donkey Kong Country 3
    If Donkey Kong Country 3 was released today as an original title, it would redefine 2D platform gaming.

    Project: Snowblind
    A rare breed of FPS these days, as it's both high in quality and uniqueness. The mechanics of "Deus Ex" work tremendously well in a high-intensity atmosphere.

    MVP Baseball 2005
    In my opinion, "Major League Baseball 2K5" is the better game. It's a close one, to be sure -- as each area that one game has a weakness in is a strength for the other title -- but I enjoyed the pitching and batting in MLB more, and fielding, one of its weak points, isn't as big of a deal to me.

    The Urbz: Sims in the City
    It might not be as deep as its PC counterpart, but it's perfect for console gamers, who are generally looking for a more casual experience. By the end, my buddy was living the high life, and I was actually proud that my Urb was finally one of the popular kids.

    Hard Reset
    The gameplay is tight and punchy, and the overall experience is so well-crafted that it's worth soaking up every last insane moment.

    Madden NFL 11
    But I do know that, unlike most years, I really feel the improvements instead of just reading about them in a press release or seeing them on the back of the box. And when it comes to Madden, that's as big a difference as I've felt in half a decade.

    Destroy All Humans!
    And while the title may never be mistaken for the deepest game on the PS2, Destroy All Humans! could very well be one of the funniest.

    No More Heroes
    One of the most gleefully "WTF" experiences you'll have in gaming this year. How many games offer you shadowy agency figures named after porn stars, obsessions with masked pro wrestlers, and a violent weapon that borders on copyright infringement, all while "Heavenly Star" from Lumines II plays sporadically throughout the game's shopping locales?
