Certainly isn’t a major departure for the series but the visible improvements and perfect additions make for an entertaining romp that’s decent enough.

It may not have the totally outrageous antics of NFL Blitz, or NHL Hitz, but it does thrive on contact, speed and transition.

An extremely difficult, linear, yet well-polished game. While it has its flaws, the game design is excellent, and the graphics are nice.

The Lost Crown: A Ghost-hunting Adventure is a good adventure game, but too many conventional elements and low production values keep it from being a great one.

Phantasy Star Zero is one of those games that some will fall completely in love with while others just won't get it.

While it’s not as engrossing as The Simpsons Hit & Run, the humorous off-the-wall levels still makes this a fun game for fans of the series and any gamer who likes their platform games with plenty of humor will find a lot to like about this game.

Guitar Hero Smash Hits isn’t much of a progression for the series, so seasoned vets looking for something new will be disappointed. However, newcomers who didn’t pick up the series until last year will get the most out of it.

For casual gamers seeking virtual checkers, solitaire, and other simple board and Web games, this might be enough. But for the rest of us, TouchMaster isn’t worth touching.

Almost a must-buy for fans of the film. Cars is a top-notch adventure/racing game with an unwieldy camera. It’s challenging, but the challenges won’t be enough to keep gamers – young or old – from beating it quickly.

This is a good game for families in that it really does offer a lot for many different ages. While hard-core racing gamers won't get much out of it, everyone else will enjoy it.

With sharp visuals and loads of neat levels, you'll have a blast cutting through enemies. If you're offended by extreme violence, stay clear, otherwise this is one enjoyably gruesome action game.

A good rental for most and a decent buy for the super-hardcore wrestling fanatic, WWE Smackdown Vs. Raw 2008 doesn’t push the series forward. But with the next-gen consoles in full swing, it doesn’t seem like there is much room for the game to grow without jumping ship.

Do not expect this to be a quick in-and-out type of game. The timer for the starting missions is 60 minutes, and you will use most of the that to work through the map and accomplish what you are tasked to do.

Nice game play, rich historical perspective and solid animation.

This game scores big points is in the cerebral zone. This is chess, pure and simple.

A little typical in terms of graphics and sound, but what this game does bring to the fore is depth of gameplay. It is immersive, and challenging.

Maintaining high standards of visual and technical expertise, while valiantly tackling the formidable task of creating a game to appeal to an almost impossibly wide audience, Lucas Learning has created a game that is worthy of praise.

All the storylines were so creatively done it’s a wonder that Westwood or EA has not jumped on the bandwagon and gone Hollywood.

Playing as Billy isn’t bad but you’ll start feeling like Reverend Ray should have been the real star of the game. In the end, the single-player game just doesn’t hold a candle to the enjoyable online multiplayer.

The action is high from beginning to end. The only problem: the end comes up very fast. Herbie's goal of saving an animal sanctuary can be finished in well under 90 minutes.

For $20, Pipe Mania is a solid game for fans of the classic. The lack of multiplayer is a serious misstep for any DS puzzler.

The variety of gameplay types is considerably higher than most action/adventures, let alone games with a movie license attached.

Good, and in some ways great, but it's too realistic to be true to the series. These new elements shouldn't be scrapped for the next edition, just revised.

Aside from a LOT of backtracking and annoying (rather than challenging) events, it's a solid game and worth a look. It's easy to pick up and get going.

The game suffers from sluggish game play and perceived slow controller response issues.

Marvel Comics fans will be very happy playing as The Hulk, but most gamers will find it uninspiring.

The best multi-platform real-time strategy game ever made. It's packed with replay value; you'll want to start another game and play through it again right after finishing it.
