The PS2 version of Mercenaries 2 is barely a fraction of the franchise Pandemic created.

Look, the game is completely disappointing to young and old fans, and the fat cat has been around for so long, isn't it about time he was given a decent title?

A brief visit with an old friend that rekindles fond memories, this iteration of Freddi Fish is handled nicely. It seems to be on track for the targeted age group and is a treat with the light graphics and sound.

It's a fun game that takes what you know about zombie games, bends it on its ear, kicks it in the shin and then pours malt-o-meal on its head as it laying there on the ground, good times.

While there are many aspects of this game that are interesting, there are also many times when the gameplay is boring and lackluster. The story as a whole just doesn’t appeal or resonate, and the writing is bad.

When you play this game with a room of other people, and you find yourself laughing at all the gags and references to old games, you’ll be in love with this XBLA treasure.

The amount of customization is unbelievable.

If anything, Tales of Vesperia is one deep and enchanting role-playing game that manages to weave a good story and keep you hooked from start to finish. It certainly isn’t a revolutionary RPG but with a wonderful cast of characters and a good story, it’s hard not to find yourself thoroughly enjoying everything about this engaging game RPG fans will come to love.

If you’ve never played N or N+, then it’s suggested you pick up N+ on the DS as soon as possible. You definitely won’t regret the purchase of this stellar platforming puzzle title.

Without a doubt one of the most addictive platform/puzzle games on the PSP, N+ is one of those games that will complete consume you in the best way possible.

Tiger Woods PGA Tour 09 is a good buy for anyone who loves the series and demands every update, and is a must-buy for players who have enjoyed this style of golf but have yet to add a Tiger Woods game to their collection.

Aside from a few issues with the motion control, this is the best golf game on the Wii right now.

While Tiger 09 is still a mostly solid golf experience (the best on the PSP) I cannot recommend this title over previous Tiger games. This game is a significant step back in gameplay that lacks some of the most vital elements.

Best suited for the Disgaea fan who loves the series solely (or at least primarily) for its gameplay, and for newcomers who will skip the story regardless of its quality.

For the players who love the Ferrari brand to death and want a game that demands every ounce of patience they possess, there might be something valuable hidden within Ferrari Challenge. But know that most players will not be able to find it.

This is more entertaining than Free Time and the apartment roommate element spices it up a touch.

The addition of animals and a spa to manage might be a welcome addition, or a much desired subtraction for fans of the franchise.

Harvest Moon DS: Island of Happiness is not an unplayable game by any means but the horrible controls simply keep it from being a fun game.

In short, My Chinese Coach gives you the necessary tools to go as far with this language as you'd like.

If the Challenge Mode offered some additional options then I know the game could have scored higher. Yet if you’re looking for a game to play with your friends Mario Super Slugger should still be on your list.

It plays very well. But without even a season mode, there is little in the way of lasting appeal.

Murder in the Abbey is almost exactly the type of game I most like, with great atmosphere and storytelling. I really enjoyed the cartoon animation, too. However, the conversations can get a bit lengthy and even I got tired of the endless talking sometimes.

It’s hard to stay immersed in the story, and the methods of solving the mandates become more like chores after awhile than fun things to do.

The gameplay is basic and while there is a bit of a learning curve, the game still has a few rough patches to work through.

It is a solid R&C release, despite its shortness.

This title is too conventional for its own good. Ultimately, there’s no compelling real reason to pick this one up, unless you just have to have another fix of the vampire mythos and don’t mind gameplay that can feel more like drudgery than fun.

Madagascar: Escape 2 Africa’s lighthearted feel and basic gameplay should appeal to younger audiences and fans of the film, but the repetitive nature and lack of challenge will likely turn everyone else off.

Too Human is another game that falls in the “could have been much more” category. Even though this game has been in development for many years, there are just too many design flaws that keep it from becoming a “must have” game.
