The Sudoku portion was OK, but as I stated above, I'd much rather play the old-fashioned way - pen and paper. And my frustrating experience with Picture Logic was certainly not a plus.

Band Hero takes the musical genre one step further, and demonstrates its viability on handheld platforms. It might be some time before it replaces the console versions, however. A better guitar, and a more serious dedication to rewarding gameplay would really draw the crowds.

It doesn’t even have those pop-out-and-say-boo moments that the first two Resident Evil games were famous for. That, combined with clunky gameplay and lame monsters, make for one obscure game.

What I liked best about the game was the ease of play. You didn’t have to fumble through spells to see what works. If a spell could be cast, the appropriate spell would be used automatically.

Save for the cooperative mode, there’s not much here worthy of a gamer’s time that is devoted to buying and renting the best games.

From timed-button pressing to dodging raindrops, the developers implemented a lot of depth though it wasn’t properly executed.

This is a game that requires patience, preparation and persistence. Combine those three qualities for a successful hunt in a visually compelling game.

Initially a jaw-dropper but quickly a repetitive action game ruled by hack-n-slash mechanics, Afro Samurai is worth playing but does not warrant more than a rental.

It’s a nice try but for my money I would stick with the recent and far [] superior Medal of Honor game for the PSP.

While Untold Legends: Warrior’s Code is definitely an improvement upon its predecessor, there are major drawbacks including bland level design and nonsensical button-smashing.

Battle March adds some new features here and there, but doesn’t really add much incentive for players to jump back in, and the dated feel will probably prevent newcomers from taking the plunge.

The gameplay is adequately fun, but could have been better if the stylus possessed a greater touch sensitivity.

DFX is designed for the casual gamer in mind and has a zero learning curve. You can pick up and play and have a blast for a MSRP of about 20 bucks. You gotta love that!

While Daemonica isn’t going to be for everyone, those looking for an entertaining and well written title will have a good time with it.

Considerably short and lacking in all the things that made Point Lookout and The Pitt worthwhile downloads, Mothership Zeta is not a bad add-on but it’s not the best one either.

If all you are looking for is a good-looking program and a reason to shoot just about everything that moves, this could be the program you are looking for.

I was impressed with this game, it was easy to play, visually stimulating, sounds great, and was a ton of fun to play!

Though it does have some solid elements borrowed from the series as a whole, this seems like a rushed title that really does more of a disservice than it does to advances the series.

I would not recommend this for too many teenagers and below, because the action is more slowly paced and more emphasis is placed on technical specs of your ship than graphical wizardry during the battles.

The overall concept is repetitive (walk in area, door shuts, tons of monsters come at you until all of them are dead), but the furious action keeps the game interesting.

The kind of game you can’t get out of your mind. Though frustration may make you set it down (I limited myself to about an hour a run) it’s a game you can always come back to.

One of the best puzzle games ever made.

Eat Them! is a precise example of why every title on the PSN should have a demo. On the one hand, there is a lot to like, with even the comic book-style presentation showing the developer's hard work and attention to detail; on the other hand, the botched multiplayer and downright tedious health system render this game into a mere shadow of what it could have been.

It’s got a quirky, tongue-on-cheek charm to it that makes up for some of its gameplay deficiencies.

A good bet for your entry into the RPG genre, or if your parents will only buy you educational games. Otherwise, it’s decent, but nothing you haven’t played before and probably better.

Quantum of Solace is a solid effort to bring Bond to the DS, but there are a few looming problems with the translation.

Whether or not you let the game’s little flaws bother you, there’s no denying that Eternal Poison is a unique, visually striking game, and the tactical gameplay is deep and engaging.

The only real problem I had when playing the game was getting units to break off an engagement.
