Elebits is wonderful in its execution of an original idea. But like most original ideas in the gaming world, it is not free of repetition.

It is so reprehensibly constructed and targeted directly at the lowest common denominator that fans and gamers alike should be insulted, as I was. The Universe, online, and creation features are compelling, but the foundation upon which they are built is so decrepit that it completely invalidates the meager value this game has to offer.

A nice collection, though a little skimpy. Similar items can be downloaded off fan sites for free, but this game provides the underscoring meshes needed to make some of those work correctly.

A compelling story coupled with gameplay mechanics that fit very well, in a world that is an amazing treat for the eyes. Folklore is a delight to play; a game full of wonder.

While not compellingly original, Frontlines: Fuel of War is still a delightfully engaging shooter that is best enjoyed online where the action really thrives.

This is the first time that a survival/horror game has made me laugh out loud, and still manages to retain all of the scariness that was present in the shooting version of the game. In some cases it's scarier because you're typing for your life, which is hardly an easy thing to do.

Fans of the previous Spider-Man games will be glad to know that the gameplay mechanics of this title have been tweaked and refined almost the point of perfection.

While extremely addictive, the lack of originality, lack of any recognizable structure, and lack of even the most cursory story line, makes this a mediocre game at best.

Beautiful graphics and great 3D perspectives make this game quite appealing to the eye. The emphasis on managing can get old too quickly.

Mythic not only added some cool new visual upgrades with ToA, but also added a great looking and deep expansion that adds hours and hours of gameplay to one of the most addictive MMORPG’s to begin with. If you are a DAoC player ... go pick this up as soon as possible.

Front Mission 4 has solid gameplay, but fails to stand out from the turn-based tactical combat crowd.

The unique gameplay and puzzles, as well as the balanced increase in difficulty, makes for an addicting and rewarding experience. There may not be too much replay value in this one, but it’s definitely entertaining enough to give it a shot.

While it is a bit awkward at first; having a handheld Katamari game outweighs the controls compromise.

For quick, pick me up & play game, Monster Truck Madness will not disappoint. The 3D graphics are impressive and the racing is smooth & polished. However those gamers looking for a more in-depth racing experience will be disappointed.

I found myself going back to the game an hour after turning it off and saying, "That's it, I quit! I can't take this anymore!" Its unique, strangely appealing gameplay style is secretly addictive.

Only gamers who love the genre and all of its repetitive gameplay mechanics should consider buying Aggressive Inline.

The game is a joy to control, even when using the more complex control schemes.

Like people, this game has its share of problems, but once you get to know it, you'll likely find that it's a game worth spending time with.

Die-hard fans will miss many of the features that have been omitted but with so many extras, options and new features this one will keep fans more than busy.

A fascinating and interesting game. It won’t cause a new generation of gamers to rise up and create a revolution in gaming. Instead Culdcept Saga will please the audience that knows what to expect from the game.

Quite possibly one of the best Naruto games to come along on a next-generation console, Naruto: Ultimate Ninja Storm is a solid fighting game for the PS3 that is true to the series. It’s a blast running through the Hidden Leaf Village and it’s quite satisfying to be wrapped up in major battles that fans and non-fans will enjoy.

The game has a decent amount of charm, and the mini-games are nice background distractions. The song list is diverse enough to attract a wide range of players and the game holds on to a light-hearted theme with the animations, background graphics and overall mood.

The Sims 2 is, by far, the best console version of a PC great.

With a charismatic and unforgettable lead character and a lengthy and diverse number of missions, the game will hook you into its great story.

There is a huge learning curve and some frustration when you, as the gamer, react but the controls are sluggish in responding. However, once you find that flow in the controls, and once you start to work up your player to the point where you can compete well, start getting a feel for the court, serving up aces or returning that power stroke inside the line, the game rewards will a real sense of achievement.

A Murder of Crows offers some nice new features for vets, but is still pretty complex and unwieldy for newcomers.

While a very nice and original concept, Uplink will only appeal to a select few.

The controls are well done, the sound is very good, the graphics carry the horror and surprise well ... if you have not experienced Quake 4 yet and plan on owning the 360, then this is a game that should be in your library.
