    Combining realistic graphics – on par with MotorStorm, no less – with realistic yet arcadey gameplay, you really can’t go amiss with this awesome release.

    A stylish visual panache grabs your attention early and a straightforward control scheme makes the game accessible to everyone.

    It’s not as classic as "Takedown" or "Revenge," so it’s a step backwards, but still it’s an enjoyable racer that has it’s problems, but it can be as addictive as the series has been in the past.

    Beautiful Katamari is a great game for fans, but not something that will interest those who didn't like the first three.

    Though some parts of the game tend to be frustrating in how poorly they were handled, Dirt 2 is still a good, fun racing game in a genre that's underrepresented on every console.

    With a car (and motorcycle) list that pushes 50 vehicles, tons of customization options for each ride, and a well-realized recreation of LA to race through, this edition of Midnight Club is a worthy debut for the series on the current generation of consoles.

    The presentation may be a tad simplistic and the options a bit sparse, but the lower retail price makes this experience worth checking out.

    It is, however, one of the best unplugged titles of 2005 yet. Given the problems between the lack of originality compared to the first one and the problematic AI, doesn't level out Rise of the Kasai's success with that of its former entry.

    Long as you're not hung up on the whole rally thing, Dirt 2 delivers solid fun.

    In terms of playability F.E.A.R. really couldn’t be much better, there’s really not a lot more to be said about it. If you played the PC version there’s not much new here. If not, however, sit down, turn the lights out and scare yourself silly.

    The Wonderful End of the World has everything going for it. It's a fun game with a distinctive look and a fun soundtrack. It's a bit short, but the levels are replayable as you try to unlock the bonus level or try for perfect A+ grades across the board.

    This was the first time in a long time that I felt like I went on a real traditional RPG adventure.

    It's surprisingly robust and impressive, especially compared to its competition.

    Fans of action games would be well to seek out the game and Spider-Man fans should consider Spider-Man: Web of Shadows a must play.

    While X-Men Origins: Wolverine is not a perfect game, Raven can easily lay claim to having created the best game ever starring Wolverine.

    Gun
    Gun is fun, but the short length, ease of gameplay and lack of those little extras really hurt replayability – and that's a shame because otherwise, this is a great game.

    Instead of a sports game stripped to its bare essentials that’s ever-so-popular among debuts on a console, NCAA Football 07 has depth written all over it. EA Tiburon has added so many features to its college series, from the stifling number of animations, to the altered kicking system, to the fresh mini-games--the list goes on and on.

    It might not stack up to the hugely epic Dynasty Warriors games on the consoles, but the PSP version of the game is a tight little package, despite the annoyance of slowdown occasionally hampering huge battles.

    The games show their age despite the enhancements, but at the same time these are still quality old-school RPG's that set the stage for the future success of the Final Fantasy brand.

    It won't blow your mind, but it has enough style and playability to make it quite fun, whether you care about the league or not, which is a far cry from "Madden" which is practically designed to run off anyone who doesn't enjoy football in some form.

    What is appealing about Anomaly: Warzone Earth is its value for money. For as little as $1.99 you can have a visually stunning tactical game that's as good as any on PSP or DS. As far as iPhone games go, it's certainly one of the top ten available, without question.

    While Gears of War for the PC is a good game, worth playing if only for the collective experience, it will make you angry more than once during your fight to save the world.

    It has that old-school feel of a game like the original side-scrolling Gradius, all wrapped up in a brilliantly simple veneer with smooth controls, amazing physics, and all-around satisfying gameplay.

    You can argue that Link’s Crossbow Training could’ve been fleshed out with additional levels and modes.

    Unlike Untold Legends, the other PS3 launch RPG that is exclusive to the system, Marvel: Ultimate Alliance is the more fun role-playing experience, especially if you crave fierce action games and comic books.

    Loosely based on the PSP version that shipped earlier this year, the PlayStation 3 downloadable version of Go! Sudoku is a tremendous value for those looking for a little mind-bending casual gaming between those sessions of Resistance - after all, the starter package is the most popular four-letter word out there – free.

    Super Swing Golf provides a nice alternative in between Zelda marathons, but still has enough depth for a player to become deeply involved with it. While some players may be put off with the game’s design and/or controls it’s all a matter of personal taste in the end.

    Although Trials and Tribulations doesn’t present anything new to the series, it helps to close out one of the greatest video game trilogies in recent memory.

    While the lack of online co-op and steep difficulty level will deter some players, it’s hard not to be captivated by the charming presentation, varied action, and enjoyable boss battles present in Alien Hominid HD.
