Fusionfall is an ambitious idea that may not have hit all the marks, but this is a solid first effort in an untapped market - a children's MMORPG.

Original Supreme Commander purists might be gathering their pitchforks, but the bold move to make the game appeal to a broad audience who might have found the original extremely daunting was something the series needed.

This expansion doesn't offer anything particularly game-changing, instead giving you more of what you would want as a fan of the game, namely a new campaign map, new units, and a host of new missions. The limited scope of the storyline does provide some focus and solid pacing, but comes at a price of some of the base game's non-military features.

A great multiplayer mode. Playing by yourself could use some work, but if you don't mind the unintelligent cops, or the racers that seem to ignore everything around them, there are 33 cool levels to enjoy.

This game sparkles because of the Offensive Cover System and animations, otherwise it is a straightforward shooter that sets up with some pretty simple and standard missions.

As much as Star Wars fans love diversity, the ground battles don't live up to expectations. Developers have been trying to make a third-person Star Wars shooter for years. It didn't work perfectly in standalone games like "Jedi Knight II: Jedi Outcast." And it works with even less efficiency here.

Def Jam Rapstar may not have the ultimate killer presentation, and 45 songs may not be enough compared to the 80+ songs the Rock Band games carry, but it's a huge step in the right direction for Konami's musical approach, and we certainly hope more follow in their footsteps.

The controls just feel right and the game moves along at a smooth pace. In short, this is a game easy to get into whether or not you're new to the sport.

If you want a full Ridge Racer experience that makes one of the best uses of 3D so far and just so happens to fit in your pocket, then Ridge Racer 3D is a launch game that deserves your attention and immediate purchase.

Battle out of Hell not only adds new content to Painkiller, but it also steps up the visuals. There are new visual distortions and lighting capabilities, which really make the game look great. They are all very noticeable differences.

A graphically superb experience with solid, although not as detailed fighting controls.

With this title, so much depends on the song selection and this release will do fine in that regard.

Call of Duty: World at War is a solid entry to the DS’s shooter library. While there are some problems here and there and it obviously won’t provide the same cinematic feel as it’s high-def console brethren, it still is a pretty solid shooter.

The scope of this game is huge and there is so much to do it is baffling.

The biggest problem with this game is that it has no sort of multiplayer capability, otherwise Pursuit Force is a heck of a good time to play; hard, but fun.

Elebits: The Adventures of Kai and Zero is a fun little adventure game that’s simple enough for young gamers to enjoy, but substantial enough to keep us older gamers happy. It’s a unique, charming little adventure, and DS owners with a taste for the cute and colorful will find it worth their time.

While the swing mechanics might not appeal to everyone, the many game modes and online play trumps previous Wii golf outings.

This game is smokin’ folks. Galactic Battlegrounds delivers a fast paced action packed Empire stomping, Wookie howling, Rebel Alliance whooping, Jedi slashing, Sith Lord choking good time. Remember it’s all in the Star Wars universe, and it’s all good.

The sound makes me want to kill.

First they have a really immersive storyline, then a great fighting engine that hardly ever gets stale, and a wonderful camera.

Technically solid effort, concept is interesting, the voice interaction is outstanding. However, this would make a much better rental than a title to own.

The games are solid, responsive, and, most important of all, fun; but their similarities to previous titles holds it back.

Fans of the Bomberman franchise will undoubtedly find a lot to like in Red Advance thanks to the addition of the battle mode, mini-games, and charabom-collecting elements.

Easily one of the best children’s games to come along these days. A nice array of gameplay mechanics keeps the gameplay exciting, while the multiplayer modes ensure hours of additional replayability.

SiN Episodes: Emergence starts out great, with intense action and awesome physics. Unfortunately, the game grows very repetitive before too long, and will leave many players bored and wanting more diversity.

A surprisingly well-executed action game that actually comes close to being a nearly perfect first-person shooter on the DS handheld.

Most fans of city-building simulations will be well-pleased. The interface could use some improvements, and for my part, I would like to see more focus on planning well-laid out cities, but this game is enjoyable to play and will please most.

Compared only to PS2 racers, Test Drive Unlimited is fantastic. The content is amazingly deep. If there’s a sports car you’d love to drive, chances are it can be found in this game.
