    I really wanted to like Lucha Libre AAA: Heroes del Ring, but the gameplay system's faults just keep it from being a truly enjoyable experience in the long run.

    Return to Mafia II in yet another unspectacular expansion pack. Joe's Adventure has the potential to be great, but it falls short thanks to boring filler missions, a lack of a checkpoint system and a frustrating timer. And worst of all, it turns out that Joe's adventure is barely worth telling. This is only for the most hardcore Mafia II fans!

    Majin and the Forsaken is the definition of a mediocre title. Nearly every aspect of the game is bland and unoriginal, with the exception of a great control scheme when it comes to controlling the non-playable Majin. Some players may find a tolerable adventure in the game, but don't expect much else.

    Kung Fu Panda is a surprisingly good movie game that is marred by awkward PC controls.

    A decent game if you just want to engage in tactical combat set in a fantasy world, and don't really care about the RPG aspects.

    This is strictly a game for those who have run out of RTS games and have nothing to play until the Christmas games come out. There is probably ten bucks of gameplay in here, though.

    An obvious console port, this watered-down action RPG just doesn't feel at home on the PC.

    Without any tension buildup, the stealth-action is merely electroshock therapy when you make bad decisions.

    Bad Day L.A. has all of the ingredients to become a memorable action game, but somewhere along the way the developers mixed in something sour to create one of the most disappointing games of the year.

    The long tradition of execrable license tie-ins continues with Justice League Heroes for DS...Even a hardcore Justice League fan will be hard pressed to enjoy this one.

    With its horrendously boring gameplay and overall buggy presentation, I claim Fantastic Four to be fantastic for no one.

    As a low-budget title, it lacks pretty much everything including: multiplayer or online play, extendability, quality cut scenes or voice acting, and plot.

    One of the worst games I’ve ever played. Tedious, unimaginative, button masher that offers little new to chew on.

    Alien Syndrome is an all around terrible resurrection of a fun (albeit shallow) arcade game.

    Farming is no fun. You have to get up early, you are constantly getting dirty, you have to deal with unruly animals and it can be a thankless experience. In other words, it sucks. This feeling of tedium and hopelessness is perfectly conveyed in Harvest in the Heartland.

    All in all I hesitate to recommend this game, even for kids.

    I'll make this easy for you: The controls are crummy, the graphics are terrible, the humor mostly falls flat, there aren't very many levels, the mini-games get in the way of the outdated golf mechanics and it's absolutely no fun to play.

    Given six more months, Dreamworks Trolls Remix Rescue would have been a fairly decent kids' platformer. But unfortunately the game is a buggy morass. With an insane camera that often obscures the wildly unstable environment, the game becomes frustrating quickly. Don't be fooled by the colorful packaging - the only thing this game is good for is making your kids angry and sad by trapping them in the geometry. Unfinished, unpolished, and unplayable.

    With the pedigree of the original behind it you might think this is a safe purchase, but don't be fooled ... SNK vs. Capcom: Card Fighters DS is a flawed experience from beginning to end.

    Godzilla Unleashed has all the makings of a good monster fighting game and none of the content

    A game can also end up being worse than the sum of its parts. Lair is a good example of this. Because Lair’s most important element, the control scheme, is terrible, you end up with a game worthy of the bargain bin.

    You don't want this game, your friends don't want this game. In fact I don't think anyone wants this game.

    Beyond incomprehensible, Mia and the Dragon Princess is the type of low-budget FMV schlock that gives schlock a bad name. Regardless of what choices the player makes, the story does not hold together, the action doesn't hit, and the interface is boring. This is the first Wales Interactive title I've played that is absolutely not worth your time.

    Star Trek: The Video Game is almost a fun, harmless game about cool characters shooting lizard men, but never rises above what you’d expect a licensed tie-in to be.

    I'm really disappointed in Batman: Arkham Origins Blackgate, and also confused. How could such a good idea be this flawed in execution? There's nothing redeeming this game from all its faults, which is truly a shame.

    Dreamworks Spirit Lucky's Big Adventure might be a lot of fun, if it would function long enough for a kid to play it. This game is broken in nearly every way possible: the graphics stutter and shake, the save files won't load, and the quest lines lead players in circles. There is no way a responsible adult should hand a child a game in this condition—it is simply unplayable.

    From storytelling to game design, Those Who Remain's tepid approach to its overabundant tropes made me want to leave Dormont as soon as I arrived. My best advice to horror fans: ignore the exit—even if your tank is running low.

    I wanted to like Jet Car Stunts, I really did but I just couldn't. I just got incredibly bored with this.

    I really wanted this to be good but it turned out to be a total mess. Let’s Fish is comprised of a bunch of great ideas and potential that never come to fruition. Its gameplay is overly simple and the technical aspects of the game are at odds with each other. Just stay away...far, far away.
