    Minimal load times, fast-paced on-the-ice action and a steady array of power-ups make for a game that plays well, controls well and has only a slight learning curve. What hurts the game is the lack of game options - there are really only three ways to play it and two are online.

    A fun and fast game, the graphics, gameplay and sound are all above board on this one. Easily worth the ten bucks.

    The main saving grace for Rygar: The Battle of Argus is that it’s one of the easier Wii action games to play. Unfortunately, it suffers from a total lack of originality for those who are familiar with the 3D action game genre.

    Afro Samurai is a good game that could have been a lot more. What this game needed was another month or two in order to squish all of the bugs, poor interior camera control, and weak bosses. If this was done, this game would have been one of the first "must have" games" of the New Year.

    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.

    Nobunaga's Ambition: Iron Triangle is for the hardcore gamer willing to take on all strategy games, not just mainstream hits.

    Operation Anchorage has no shortage of action, but the experience is awfully short-lived.

    I liked the fact that there were so many mini-games that could be replayed separately from the game, but these alone cannot hold up the entire game.

    Coraline for PS2 isn’t a terrible game — it is, however, a dull, routine, by-the-numbers movie adaptation. It’s as bland and forgettable as the movie and book are fresh and original, and it’s a real shame that some of that magic couldn’t come across in interactive form.

    Coraline follows the movie in terms of the plot but what we have here is a rather dull, lifeless and by-the-numbers DS game that’s actually quite disappointing.

    This game had great potential, but unfortunately it fails to deliver. Only the most hardcore baseball fanatics are going to be able to stomach the breadth and depth of this title. I'm a pretty big baseball fan, and it was even too much for me.

    Big Bang Mini is a distinctive game that simply wouldn’t work on any system but the DS—but there it works brilliantly. With so much content, challenge, and visual insanity packed into a $20 title, this game deserves a spot in any DS owner’s library.

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

    Skate 2 does manage to pull of some refreshingly new and stylish moves that should please fans of the first game. Despite its few technical problems, though, it makes the trip back to San Van well worth it.

    A great continuation of a solid RPG franchise, Ar Tonelico 2 is worth the time and effort you'll put into its lengthy quest.

    The bad aspects in the game just overtake all the good it tries to accomplish, resulting in just an average game-show game.

    While there are a few issues here and there, Second Evolution is a solid update of a compelling RPG from the past.

    Commander in Chief tries to give you a feeling of running a world power, but instead feels like a lame duck presidency.

    Using the fun Star Wars: Battlefront style, Conquest has all the right elements but they’re not implemented as smoothly or as it should have been on the Xbox 360. The controls make for some frustrating button-mashing battles even with some fun match types or the various heroes you can use on the many battlefields.

    Moon is a solid first-person shooter, especially considering it’s on DS, but it certainly has its fair share of shortcomings and annoyances.

    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.

    This is well-made, well-developed title. The end result isn't the new gold standard, but the idea and implementation sure are good.

    A good idea for the Wii, and one that should have worked better than it did. The control system really should have been tested more before the final release. It is a shame, because there are lots of varied and attractive games included in this compilation. Best for families with older children that don’t frustrate easily.

    Young players and monster truck fans may find Collision Course a mildly enjoyable, if seriously flawed, racing romp, but most should pass on this pedestrian racer.

    There are times where you’ll appreciate the throwback to old detective games, but then you’ll realize that Interpol: The Trail of Dr. Chaos needed a lot more work graphically to keep your attention past the first few cities.

    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.

    I felt bad cause I beat the game up so badly, but then I played it again, and now I don't feel so bad.

    This is a must-have game for the Wii. It transcends generations, and even though expensive, will last for a long time.

    Hats off to the dev team for bringing the genre back to life in a visually appealing way that is a lot of fun to play.

    This is not a game you should play for the gameplay. That sounds strange, doesn't it? But Rise of the Argonauts' developers wanted to create an RPG, a genre that used to put the story first.
