All told, DQIX is an excellent RPG that will keep you glued to your Nintendo DS. But unless you only come to this genre for the turn-based battles, you won't be completely satisfied with what DQIX has to offer.

It's made for kids, but you'd have to be pretty jaded and close-minded to ignore the fun that's to be had by playing this game.

Interestingly enough, the game adds new and downright entertaining game modes making this one of the most complete Naruto games on the PS2.

For $10, you really can’t beat the value of this game. Not only do you get a fully fleshed-out Kart style racer, but also deathmatch, a platforming puzzler, and Xbox Live support!

Lara Croft and the Guardian of Light is nothing short of a triumph for Crystal Dynamics and the buxom adventurer. The score-based gameplay and objectives are geared towards providing hefty doses of replay value, but even a single playthrough promises to be an exciting journey filled with top-notch action and ingenious puzzles.

Skate 2 is a solid, albeit incremental, improvement over the first Skate.

Battlelines for the PS3 is actually far superior to the original Full Auto game introduced on the Xbox 360 and is one fun ride well worth your money.

While the game drops the ball a little bit in terms of storytelling, it’s still a solid RTS that fans of the genre should take a look at.

Even though it’s short, even when compared to other expansions, F.E.A.R. Extraction Point is a fun and visceral experience in league with the original game.

Controlling the characters is still quite awkward in that old Resident Evil kind of way but the real treat comes in the form of the Camera Obscura and the fact that you can play as two other characters.

The puzzles could have been more challenging, and having some of them as stand-alone games would have been nice, but the overall game is engaging and well-designed.

A game that is entertaining and frustrating because the environmental rules change within the same maps. You can walk to the edge on one bridge, but do it on another and you’ll fall off.

Any Crash Bandicoot fan would be a fool not to go out and buy this game. I started playing at 2am one night and did not stop until three in the afternoon!

As always, these games are fun to play and will tickle kids' brains while entertaining.

A game with both style and substance. Yes it gets repetitive and yes it might seem like just a button-masher, but it’s an enjoyably addictive action game fans of the genre shouldn‘t miss.

Upon completing The Cameron Files Pharaoh’s Curse I realized that I wanted more.

I also find it intriguing that my journalistic brethren so easily throw a new IP like Homefront under the bus after lavishing perfect scores upon the laughably flawed Black Ops and Halo: Reach. With a few tweaks and a fresher paint of coat, Homefront would have been outstanding, far outshining either of those titles. As is, it's still worth a playthrough.

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.

Fun, challenging and addictive.

A cute and fun game that is sure to please most kids. The theme of earning money for a gift by doing odd jobs is a good one, and ties in all the game features very well.

Multiple tasking with multiple weapons makes for a wild ride, and I like that, boy does it get hot and heavy at times.

You don’t have to be a Naruto fan to like this game but if you are there are enough goodies here that will certainly not fail to please.

No user interface creates a bit of a different feel to the game. The flow, though, is very nice and the game uses the school as a sandbox game mechanic, letting players move through the quests at their own pace.

Retro Studios may have instilled a higher difficulty that many gamers may not be used to, but that shouldn't scare them away from the joys of nostalgia and charm that DKCR brings to the table.

Overflows with action and there’s a nice diversity within the game’s levels that makes this sequel superior to the original.

Top-of-the-line web-slinging fun. Spider-Man 3's controls are excellent. The combat is fun, the missions are appropriately paced (mostly), and the replay value is very high.

Not only do Orcs beg to be slashed again and again, but the combat system is so entertaining that you won't even care about the repetition. The Two Towers is not without frustration (just wait till you get to level 10...ugh!), but it's not without fun either.

Controlling with a gamepad is so much easier to move and aim spells. I would go as far as saying that it is a must.
