Mini Ninjas is about having fun. It might not be the best game on the market but it should provide plenty of fun and enjoyment for almost any gamer.

For fans of the original, its sequel, and for anyone who loves RPGs, Atelier Iris 3 is a retro-infused, highly inspired classic.

This is a good fighter but it could have been much better. Still, the game is entertaining, challenging and looks good.

While there are things that could be improved upon this game will capture you for many hours while you are trying to just get one more win.

The gameplay is a mixture of a quality FPS and third-person action game but with some interesting gameplay choices. The lack of a health meter is an innovative idea that works but not without some issues.

A no-brainer, especially for hardcore basketball fanatics. Although displaying its fair share of problems, the overwhelming fun factor of the game more than overshadows the lack of realism.

It's engaging, it's dealt with the DC license in an acceptable way and it manages to make you want to kick a little butt while wearing tights.

An arcade game and a true-to-life simulator rolled into one. MLB 07 is a grand showpiece for PlayStation 2. It crams as much into the game as possible, drawing every bit of power it can from the console’s core.

The new weather system may not be a total revitalization of the series, but it does make it interesting to play the levels different ways.

Its gameplay is genre-bending, its visuals are intense and demanding, and there’s enough content here to keep you returning for an obscene amount of time.

THQ has done a good job gearing up the franchise for the future with the inclusion of downloadable user-created content. Downloading storylines that involve the G.I. Joe villain, Cobra Commander, buying the WWE from Vince McMahon should be one of the game’s selling points plastered on front of the retail box.

A fast-paced game with loads of action. The game looks good and plays well.

Section 8 is a remarkable shooter that goes above and beyond its expectations.

The gameplay’s a bit straightforward and can get sickeningly boring without music, but under the right circumstances (I.E. Turn up the stereo, find some friends) PRD is an excellent title.

Just realize you absolutely must use a gamepad and you will have a lot of fun.

Realistic enough to be enjoyable, but not complicated to the point that only current or ex-pilots would be able to enjoy it.

Hands down the most entertaining boxing title currently out for the GBA. Unfortunately there are a few too many minor issues that ultimately keep this title from being an instant classic along the same lines of it’s predecessors.

Though it was not the most challenging game, Mind Over Mutant remained a joy to play. Stepping into the 3D world is definitely a good move for the franchise, and the gameplay translates well.

Controlling Rayne is dead on with the Xbox controller...The game falls short because it doesn't have anything to offer players going through the game once more.

Some of the most horrifying and shocking gameplay and movies of any title to date.

Fans will love it, and newcomers will quickly go and buy the previous installments in the series.

If you're looking for a mech title that isn't quite like most others out there - or just a fun action title, perhaps - do not pass this up.

While it certainly isn’t the best RPG to be released this year, it is the best Suikoden game in a long time.

The new gameplay features and impressive depth make this year's College Hoops the best so far in the series.

Getting used to the controls for this game might take a little bit, but once you do and see everything in action you will really enjoy all that this game has to offer.

An engaging kart racer, which while not as good as the top of the class Mario Kart, manages to hold its own in the crowded field of racing games.

The new music really adds more flavor to the Rock Band franchise. Best of all players will be able to get all music at a reduced price in-comparison to downloading each of the songs separately online. If you enjoy Country music then this purchase is a no brainer.

Naruto: Clash of Ninja Revolution 2 is a great game that will give hours of enjoyment to anyone who is looking for a fighting game or likes the Naruto series.

Madden NFL 10 for me is exactly the type of football game I want to play for the Wii. Nothing too heavy or serious in the controls or gameplay modes that could turn away non-gamers and some hardcore gamers.

The graphics are great and the gameplay, though a little sluggish, is just plain fun.

While there are some similarities to the original title, the addition of the planning phase to build and modify armies as well as recruit and train in more tactics was a good addition which added a little more than just fighting one battle after another.

Sure, the game’s far from perfect. Still, it’s one of best fighting games ever to grace the PS2, and for only 20 bucks, it’s about the best deal in gaming today.

There is freshness to the latest version of Ultima Online that transcends the same graphical elements players of late have been used to.

The game has been kept rather simple in terms of controls to allow players to jump right in and go with a minimal time spent in learning the game. The mission interface could have been better. But if you are looking for an RTS with imagination, this is definitely worth a gander.

An entirely original wrestling experience and does a great job of recreating the frenetic action of the cartoon, though it must be said that it is an acquired taste.

It is a great diversionary title, rife with action and some minor strategic game play. If you want to relive the days of yore, when you gathered around the huge arcade machines and frantically pounded fire buttons and slammed the joystick around like a jackhammer, then this game is perfect.

It would be easy to let the gameplay stop you from wanting to play Call of Duty: World at War, but there are just so many other things the game has to offer. If you own a Wii and are confident in your Wii remote abilities than this is an excellent game to pickup.

I found myself laughing out loud on multiple occasions at various encounters, like a parrot who tells blonde and condom jokes and a private eye who scratches his crotch constantly.

An entry to the Guitar Hero series focusing on the history of one band is a risky move, but fans of Aerosmith should enjoy this retrospective.

The setlist simply did not pull me into this game. There were some good tunes (Frampton rocks!), a couple of nice discoveries, but Guitar Hero is about the songs and while the gameplay, mechanics, and options are nicely handled, the track list failed to impress.

While this game may not be in quite the same category of some of its major competition, it is still a solid, well-designed game that will give gridiron junkies a quick football fix.

This is a tried and true concept, but the execution is good and the design well-implemented.

A wonderful foundation has been set and it’s now time for Rainbow Studios to expand on what they have set up with their next iterations. The future is bright and fans should be rejoicing.

While it doesn't quite match up to Rondo of Blood or Super Castlevania IV, due in large part to being about half as long as those games, ReBirth is an enjoyable old-school Castlevania experience that's worth the 1,000-Nintendo Point cost. Any fan of the series should pick it up.

This year’s iteration feels a little more streamlined and designed to get you into the gaming experience faster.

Playing Worms Reloaded made me feel like I just opened a time capsule from 10 years ago. It shows that even such a simple game of worm warfare, can stand the test of time, and still be as entertaining as it once was.

Does a great job bringing in the Bond-spy factor into the first-person shooter genre, and is a fun, although short, game.

Like Klonoa or Zack and Wiki, The Munchables proves that “kid-friendly Wii game” doesn’t necessarily mean it’s not worth your time. Fans of Katamari or just off-kilter action games take note: this game is surprisingly awesome.

The Room is a frightening and disturbing jaunt even with its number of flaws you'll encounter along the way, but it is definitely a jaunt well worth taking.

I am addicted to this game. I can’t stop playing mission after mission. The strategy is fun, and the graphics make it visually stimulating.

One of the best Tenchu sequels ever made.

Combines a solid interface with an intriguing storyline. In addition, the multiplayer options make Outlive stand above its competitors.

A fun and truly original jaunt which breaks the mold of combat racing titles.

While the gameplay may have some problems, EA certainly cut no corners while making this game an authentic Godfather experience.

If you hated the kiddie aspect of Pikmin, I suspect its stellar gameplay – most of which is present in Overlord – will turn you into a fan of Codemasters’ series now that Nintendo’s overly happy atmosphere has been replaced by a world that’s darker, more evil, and likely more appealing to the average gamer.

Graphically, this is a great looking PSX title. Each MS, pilot, and background was hand drawn and colored to provide a bright, anime style presentation overall.

The Big Air Edition of Stoked makes for a bigger and somewhat better game that makes for a far more complete and completely gratifying snowboarding game for the Xbox 360. There are still a few issues that really haven't been improved in this version but we are still looking at one addictive snowboarding game well worth buying.

Everything about the game engine, graphics, sounds, and options roll into a well rounded Rally Racing game that ranks among the top of the genre.

While it may not be as deep as the latest RPG, or as intense as the latest action game, Solitaire is like Tetris: a timeless classic that anyone and everyone can enjoy. When you put this many different versions in such a compact package, it’s an easy recommendation.

EA Sports Active is a really great first effort game. The developers at EA Sports laid a really nice foundation for the next game that will inevitable come in the series. Hopefully they will tighten up the controls as this will make for a better game. If you are looking for a fun game that will help you work up a sweat and lose some calories check this game out.

Slinging webs is an accelerated, exhilaration-pushing experience that offsets the return of an old and repetitive combat engine. Wii players have the benefit of using their remotes to attack, which sharply cuts the repetition tied to pressing one button thirty million times.

The videogame version is a good product that comes close in matching the ultimate legacy that is Spider-Man.

Provides enough of a rush to deal with the fact that the game tends to get a little monotonous.

With Din's Curse, players will have access to something that is familiar and fresh all at once. Having new scenarios play out each time really heightens the replay value of the title.

RTS fans will really enjoy the faster pacing, new objectives to complete, and the well-acted cutscenes. Other fans looking for 3D graphics or new gameplay options will be disappointed, but the missions are still entertaining enough to keep them happy.

Taking a page from other "from the ground up" remakes of other Square-Enix remakes like Final Fantasy IV on the DS, Re:Chain of Memories is a great way to check out an adventure that many may have missed the first time around.

But once you get a feel for the camera and compensate for its flaws, the game opens up and feels so free. It's fun to just rush through each level.

The pitch control (sounds like a flight sim, but when you are airborne, that’s what it feels like) is a nice touch, and coupled with solid graphics and sterling sound, makes this a solid driving simulation.)

A major step forward in the genre.

While the game offers few changes over the 2009 version, and even takes a step back with the removal of online play, this still a deep baseball game with tons of great features.

One serious issue remains though. The servers are completely empty. No one is online.

This game is a relatively short play, as it can easily be finished in one day. Even though Konami™ claims that there are ten "massive" chapters; don't be fooled, they aren't "massive" in any sense.

It is a really pleasurable blend of classic RPG and anime - two things that really do what games do best: Wrap you up in a new world and help you forget the real one for a few hours.

Perfect for stat junkies who like the RPG element of the create-a-player feature. Casual basketball gamers might want to look elsewhere as the gameplay could use a few tweaks.

Its unique style and lighthearted charm set it apart in a genre increasingly filled with dark, somber epics.

It is deceptively simple to play, yet engrossing enough to make you think about it in your sleep. I seriously will not play the game within a few hours of bedtime.

Anyone who enjoys Risk type board games needs to buy this game. Muzzy Lane has done a wonderful job of designing a game that is entertaining and easy on the eyes.

The Xbox version doesn’t offer any real changes from the version released on other consoles last year, but the game still stays incredibly true to the TV show and offers all the fun and charisma that have made the series so endearing and popular over the years.

Quantum of Solace is a fun and exciting Bond title that has some truly engaging situations and pretty production values. However, there are some ugly issues, like poor AI and a buggy cover system, that keep it from truly being a truly great shooter.

Some gamers may be turned off by the complexity and slow pacing, but strat fans with open minds and a love for the genre should enjoy themselves here.

A great presentation of a TV show that most kids will enjoy playing. The gameplay is solid, and there are no frustrating aspects. While not overly long, the variety of mini-games will have most kids coming back to play.

A fun, mindless and short romp that will entertain action fans. However, the redundancy of the gameplay will keep the game from being a long-term investment of time.

This is truly a baseball lover’s game and you’ll feel it the minute the game is booted up, but unfortunately a few flaws keep the game from being a true Must Have.

Incredibly addictive.

Aside from a few awkward moments, Sniper Elite is a perfectly entertaining game that handles sniper action as good as any other action game.

This is somewhat addictive and highly entertaining. Playing alone is a cardio workout, of sorts; playing with others can turn into a laugh-fest.

It may not be as sleek as some of the other racing games on the market, but is has certainly carved out its own place of individuality among the others, which is not an easy task as all gamers know.

Whether choosing your personal advisers, colonizing a new country, requesting marriage to soften international relations, or just stomping the boot of military might across the world, Europa Universalis III Chronicles is the game for it-as long as you're prepared for a steep learning curve.

The expansion really leans toward cooperative play. Interacting with other players is still viable and almost necessary to move along in the quest.

It has some pacing issues, loose ends, and can be absurdly linear, but none of these factors can overpower the incredible events that unfold.

Hell’s Highway is a solid shooter with some great elements, but the AI issues are very problematic, especially for a squad-based shooter.

Probably the best Bond game since, but not better than, "Goldeneye 007."

There just aren't many games like this being produced, and thankfully the Metal Slug series continues to offer astounding quality.

Fuzion Frenzy is actually worth playing with your friends. Not just for laughs either, but for the entertainment value. It's hard to believe, I know. But this game is a blast.

White Knight Chronicles has several faulty elements, but the game is long (the original released in Japan a couple of years back was estimated at 100 hours – but it can be done in between 65 and 80) and the story is decently layered making for a nice bit of J-RPG gaming.

An excellent real-time strategy game that will devour your hours just as quickly as its predecessors did on the Game Boy Advance.

The sum of its parts does not always equal the end score. This is a good, quality title that has few bugs, an engaging story and maybe more than a few cliches.

No 3d acceleration, but the mission editor gives unlimited amounts of gameplay for both novices and experts alike.
