It’s not that this game is terrible, just kind of unimpressive and full of things that have been done better elsewhere.

Repetitive missions, weird collision physics and floaty controls line out this weak licensed game.

The boss battles are another frustration since you can never actually hurt the boss at first. You have to throw something at the boss several times before the boss is weak enough so you can attack it.

No difficulty settings, or multiplayer make completing this game a done deal. I cannot see that this title would have any replayability once you have completed the game after playing both sides.

Overlord is a fun and original title that takes some great elements across a spectrum of genres and applies them very well together.

There are a few minor flaws, but the game runs at a steady framerate and the control scheme is easy to both learn and implement. Fun is an underscoring element here.

Lost Planet is a great game, but the PC translation suffers quite a bit due to some conversion issues and strange production choices. If you have an Xbox 360, then definitely pick up that version over the PC port.

A nice and polished remake of a beloved classic, Final Fantasy I is a good game for an RPG fan with only a PSP who hasn’t played any previous remakes of the title. However, if you already have, chances are you’ll want to skip this one, since it doesn’t bring anything new to the table.

A superb blend of battles that differ from the genre’s norms. It is a grim (and grand) blend of glorious missions that are fought and won in a 2D, side-scrolling environment. The controls are top-notch.

A must-own for fans of Arkanoid or any similar-style game.

The movie is well worth the admission. The game, on the other hand, is a mixed bag and will be enjoyed most after you have viewed the movie.

Ratatouille is a fun game; the only sad thing is that this game really doesn’t try to add anything new.

Rent it for quick fun; buy it for the lasting replay value.

The PSP version of Ratatouille hardly feels like much of a morsel and compared to the far superior console version this will be a disappointment for anyone who fell in love with the movie.

There isn’t much to this game and it is very short. More challenges and variety of gameplay would have helped.

It takes some patience and dedication to learn, but it is well worth the effort.

The Blue and the Gray is a niche game that will appeal to a very specific audience, so in that regard it’s a tough sell. However, if you fit into that group of hardcore strategy fans and Civil War enthusiasts, then this could be one that you’ll want to check out.

The complete opposite of the console versions. No action. No adventuring. Bad controls, repetitive objectives, zero variety – you should skip this one and stick to the others.

Well, I had hopes that this would be the breakout game based on a movie this year, it didn't happen. But it does do a better then average job of creating some entertainment for its core audience.

A truly unique experience from start to finish, The Darkness is one of those games that will hook you in and steal your soul.

The Darkness is a deep FPS game, giving you a nice world to explore and great Darkness powers to use. The controls are a little sluggish, however, and the AI leaves a little bit to be desired.

The intense home runs, stadium interactivity, slow motion passes and hard-hitting slides – that literally thrust one player into another – are a must-see and a must-play.

The main problem with this game is that the controls are not as polished as they could have been and lack of online mode hurts it.

While the PSP version has its share of foibles, it still does a great job of capturing the spirit of the game.

There’s a game somewhere among the bugs and glitches that make up Hour of Victory for the Xbox 360 but you’ll never find it seeing as the entire experience feels broken and rushed.

For casual gamers seeking virtual checkers, solitaire, and other simple board and Web games, this might be enough. But for the rest of us, TouchMaster isn’t worth touching.

Some will love it, and others will despise it. More likely than not, your own appreciation of this title will come down to your fanaticism regarding the genre.

Recommended to the die-hard Potter crowd, Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix is a rich adventure that’s light on longevity.
