    What Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen has going for it besides the coveted movie license is a fair amount of missions, the ability to play as both Autobots and Decepticons and the unexpected online multiplayer, which isn’t always a given in movie-games.

    Issues such as the camera, the short length and repetitive nature of the game keep it from being a game to remember.

    There are plenty of other shooters on the market that are better than this game, and most of those shooters do both the single-player and multiplayer aspects of their game in a far superior manner.

    Managing your own nudie magazine isn't for everyone (for God's sake you better keep this away from your girlfriend or wife... unless they are very liberal, heh heh) but you may be surprised at how playable and interesting it is to be just like Hef.

    An old-school fighting game that will be appreciated by hardcore fans of games like "Street Fighter II."

    Coming home and reliving the incredibly cool persona of a badass Jedi Knight is definitely something fans will get behind. That said, the game is repetitive, extremely short (maybe 6 hours to complete the campaign) and is very straightforward in its approach.

    Ghostfire Games must be applauded for attempting to do something innovative with the rhythm game and Wii remote. Unfortunately, the lack of precise movement, uneven challenge, and uninspired music selection serve to make the game boring.

    Just another squad-based shooter that will really only serve to pad the lower-middle ranks of the Xbox game library.

    Heavy Iron just wasn't able to quite capture the magic of the original Pixar film and the game simply isn't that fun for long periods of time.

    While the spirits are varied enough to keep any serious collector hunting and combining for a long time, the uninspired battle system and the complete lack of battle effects make the game feel like more like collecting for the sake of collecting.

    It looks good, it plays decent, but in the end it is too easy and really doesn't work hard enough to distinguish it from its competitors.

    True Crime: New York City had the potential to break through and be something exciting...but once again it's another GTA clone that just doesn't understand why GTA is so beloved.

    Leisure Suit Larry takes off its clothes and shows us an imaginative world full of sexually starved monkeys that can talk, chicks with dicks, and several other zany enticements that will have you so horny, you'll be licking the dust off your television screen.

    Touch Detective definitely stacks up in the same category as the Phoenix Wright games, by being a game that is fun for being a well written, quirky title and not for blowing stuff up endlessly.

    Should you buy Quake Wars for PS3? Probably not. Should rent it? Maybe, but seeing as how I mentioned there are a slew of better shooters on the platform; make absolutely sure you want to play this before spending any money on it above $15.

    There are some interesting moves and the environment is well done. However, as a TMNT game it’s sorely lacking.

    Unfortunately, it lacks the solid arcade racing feel of a game like Burnout, or Ridge Racer, or Gran Turismo itself.

    As good as it gets on PSP in the strategy department, but even if it's the only game in town, it's not worth picking up unless you're desperate or willing to tolerate numerous gameplay and technological hassles along the way.

    A poor excuse for a game. Whatever made the Insomniac-developed Spyro titles so great obviously has vanished from the game's inner fray forever.

    The arcade business is on life support along with the light gun shooters that were once a prominent arcade attraction, so you probably have lots of quarters stacked up these days. But, don’t cash them in for Time Crisis 4 at full price.

    Raging Blast 2 is pure fan service, a toy box that lets kids reenact fights between their favorite Dragon Ball characters. If this is what you want, great, because it's all you're getting.

    The story side captures the feel of the console game, with the same story, characters, voices, and whatnot, but with that lack of freedom comes a stripped down take that doesn't take very long to complete, especially if you're experienced with the game already.

    Dragon Song doesn't completely suck. It has flaws. It has numerous crushing issues. It's an RPG you shouldn't probably be even wasting your time on if you care for RPGs at all.

    Hydrophobia features a compelling world and premise that's reminiscent of the creepy, built-up universes of BioShock and Half-Life. But, unlike those masterpieces, this seemingly unfinished XBLA game features too many narrative holes and missing gameplay elements, making it seem like there was more work to be done.

    As the first FPS for PSP, Coded Arms is a decent try at it, though not one that's really going to rewrite the books on the genre.

    Far from being an impeccably, unbroken, master of its craft. Barring that discrimination though, the busily scopic alternatives in the field to thrive past demanding circular sales makes up for some of the faults in this intriguingly orgasmic Playboy experience.

    Its existence is puzzling, its release an admittance of surrender, and its song selection showcases one singer while snubbing another... yet because Guitar Hero remains fun, Guitar Hero: Van Halen comes away as a decent diversion.

    I guess Dynasty Warriors 6 is not the perfect harmony Koei or the fans were hoping for.

    Tony Hawk’s Downhill Jam is a fun and much-needed break from the stagnant series, but this original concept doesn’t fill the void for more than a couple of days at the most.
