    A classic game that didn't age as well as we had hoped, Bomberman is a must-have game for those who know they must have it.

    Despite Obsidian's fan-service, Fallout: New Vegas is a heaping pile of bugs.

    While it has its flaws, Sanctum is a unique and commendable twist on the tower defense genre. The first-person shooter elements and incredibly fun multiplayer aspects offer a fun experience, and with the promise of new downloadable content on the horizon, the game is worth forgoing a few McDonald's Happy Meals to pick it up.

    Overall, Mayhem 3D lacks depth in many departments, but it delivers an average experience for fans of destruction racing games.

    The vehicles aren't the only thing with a mind of their own. The camera is worse.

    Had it been taken as seriously as other racers on the market, NASCAR 2011 could have been a very solid title.

    Lego Star Wars III should easily be the best the series has to offer. With superior graphics and a decent variety of game styles, it easily overcomes any shortcomings in narrative. Unfortunately, the same problems that have plagued previous Lego games are still on display: difficult to control vehicles, overly simplified combat, unresponsive controls, glitches, drawn out levels, and poor guidance.

    Like Strider before it, Moon Diver is a repetitive button masher that will enthrall you regardless of its shortcomings.

    Less successful as a game, but useful as an educational supplement.

    Fun to play but painful to behold, an ugly prom date with a "great personality." It's simple, fun, and terribly bland-looking, but if you've got that strategy itch and are reluctant to invest in a more complicated or lengthy game, then World Supremacy is worth a look.

    As an intellectual experiment, Dinner Date is interesting and even profound. As a meta-narrative about the social constructs that confront the modern man, it fascinates. As a game, it barely qualifies.

    While Majesty 2: Monster Kingdom doesn't reinvent any part of the gameplay, the change of scenery and units is appreciated, but in the end you're still playing the same exact game with a new coat of paint. The unrelenting difficulty, arguably even higher than the last expansion's, makes this entry for Majesty die-hards only.

    It's fast, it's colorful, it's funny, and it goes down smoothly-in other words, it has many of the same things going for it as the Naruto comics themselves.

    Plenty of gamers are certain to find a lot of enjoyment in the game, but fans of more compelling shoot 'em ups will only be able to squeeze a minimal amount of worthwhile gameplay out of it.

    There are some players who will undoubtedly love Okamiden, either because the flaws (such as backtracking) are not as familiar or because they have the capacity to overlook its myriad mistakes. I wish I could do the same.

    When you aren't throwing your controller in frustration over the pitching controls, you might actually enjoy MLB 2K11. The 2K series offers a quality title and is moving in the right direction with their baseball games, but haven't yet perfected the formula like competitors are starting to do.

    With drab levels and weak controls, The Saboteur is only a shell of the console version.

    R-Type doesn't have much longevity going for it – no online leaderboards, no bonus levels, no R-Type II – but considering its two dollar price tag, you could buy worse for your Apple device.

    For a buck, this is a quality purchase. The five minute mode is intense, fast and hard, and players will come back to it time and time again. That said, their stay in the game won't last very long. It really is a five-minute run, maybe once or twice a day.

    The game's setting and story elements make it stand out against other puzzle titles, but the game is just far too easy to hold a serious puzzle fanatic's attention for too long.

    It's a valiant effort to focus on a more story driven game rather than the mindless button mashing of the Warriors series, but the game could have used considerably more polish, especially when it comes to presentation.

    Perhaps the best part is that this game isn't even complete. A whole new game mode is expected to be released sometime in the near future, so you're in fact investing in the game, which already costs practically nothing.

    Although Bionic Commando Rearmed 2 plays it safe with vanilla additions and the ability to jump for casual gamers, the one thing it has going for it is an excellent presentation.

    The problem with games like Mr. Bill is that it's not necessarily a bad title, it's just that there are so many better ways iPhone users could be spending their time.

    Zombies II isn't everything that it could have been, and at $10, it isn't everything it should have been. However, it is an interesting experiment. As far as expensive novelties are concerned, this is one of the better ones.

    Although it's still a fun and imaginative game no matter where you play it, there are cheaper and far superior Plants vs. Zombies offerings on almost every other platform. I'm not sure why PopCap delivered watered down audio/visuals, but the fact that they did essentially rules out the DS version for anyone with a PC, iPhone, iPad, iPod Touch, or Xbox 360.

    For the price, it's an easy bargain. Each game lasts anywhere from 5-15 minutes, depending on how good you are, so it's not quite a five-minute hero, but pretty close.

    The game would benefit immensely from a playable tutorial and adjustable difficulty settings. Dairojo! Samurai Defenders is daunting, to put it mildly, but if you're up for a lesson in tough-as-nails tower defense, then get your katana ready.

    Different control schemes, GameCenter achievements, and a Score Attack mode round out the additional content, making this a very solid package, albeit one more expensive than the usual one dollar app.
