The game is rather standard for the RTS genre, not offering much in terms of innovation, but rather trading off what already exists.

The gameplay is adequate fun, but after awhile the sameness of the activities will preclude much replay from the kids. Also, for some reason, multiple users aren't supported, at least not that we could see.

The game can be addictive and enjoyable, but when you get down to the last two minutes of a tight game and are suddenly booted to your Windows desktop, or the lag is so bad that you are rendered immobile or things are happening that have no base in real physics or logic (like sliding across the court to a position the game determines you are at regardless on how often you try to move to get involved with the game), then frustration will mount.

Not a bad title, though a bit on the repetitious side. The game does have some personality and the combat can involve a bit of strategy.

If you are you die-hard Spidey fan and must have this game, do yourself a favor and buy a gamepad. For all others, avoid getting caught in this web.

The ideas are there, but they have too many issues to be considered a drawing point.

I just wished the developers could have ironed out the rough edges a bit more before releasing it, as it is, I am left unfulfilled.

A step down from the enjoyable "Chamber of Secrets."

The missions are plentiful but many of them become repetitive but it’s the jerky flight controls that will frustrate gamers the most.

The enjoyment dies out after about two or three more missions though, and the game becomes repetitive all the way up until the end.

May leave gamers feeling a bit unfulfilled because of the lack of features and game modes.

Some people will absolutely love what this game has to offer, but for the most part I think gamers will be more frustrated then thrilled.

Frantix is light on concept, lush on eye candy, but overall a simple game that will not have you playing until the wee hours but may have you picking it up when you have 10 minutes to spare.

As mediocre as a video game can get when viewed as a whole.

Merely an average game. It just doesn't have the graphical quality to compete, and there are other games with unique power-ups that would give it a run for the Cup.

At first glance, this edition looks good because of new MLB characters, and older looking kids. However, the controls and the unfair edge that the computer has makes for some frustrating play, especially for young players.

The entertainment value of Go Play Circus Star heavily relies on if you have friends and family to play with. There’s no online multiplayer to keep you playing when there’s no one to invite over. So if you have kids or siblings, Go Play Circus Star is an adequate rainy day distraction.

The game has some fine elements, but feels a little too directed at times and while pulling two diverse genres together is novel, not really enough attention was paid to either to create an experience that will draw players back time and again.

The game might look and feel right but thanks to some glitches and gameplay features that just don’t work, this is not Harry’s finest moment.

While Backyard doesn’t have anything to offer hardcore football fans, the game should peak the interests of its target market in kids.

Some will love it, and others will despise it. More likely than not, your own appreciation of this title will come down to your fanaticism regarding the genre.

Unfortunately there are problems with the control scheme (seriously who let this game ship with only d-pad controls) and a lack of a real captivating mini-game. For what is presented, this will entertain your family (kids) for several hours on end.

Pets is an impressive The Sims 2 expansion pack transferred nicely to the PSP but really long load times and its repetitive nature might not sit well with everyone even true fans.

The graphics are based on the same engine as before and thus have shown little improvement since the last iteration of the franchise. This is an expansion but not an overly long one.

This is a wholly average collection of mini-games. While a few are nicely designed and are entertaining, the majority are too simplistic and unvaried in type to be very interesting after the first few plays. A better variety of mini-games would have helped.

An average entry in the poker genre, there isn't anything new or groundbreaking here, some decent challenges sure, but I was left wanting more.

I think if you can enjoy half the songs on a game like this, you are doing well, to me, I would say I liked about one third the songs.

Rock University Presents: The Naked Brothers Band – The Video Game isn’t going to win any awards this winter, but it will win over fans of the show and a lot of the tweens who have no idea who AC/DC are or don’t understand the lyrics of Metallica.
