    In spite of the negative aspects of the game, I highly recommend the interesting and unique experience that is Heavy Rain.

    It's a win-win situation for gamers no matter if they've done all there is to DMC3 or have never picked the game up in their lives. And now, the wait for Devil May Cry 4 is on.

    A great game, though not quite as good as those glory days of 2003 and 2004, when the series was simply amazing.

    From the opening title screen to the epic final battle, New Super Mario Bros. Wii has everything a fan of the franchise could ever want.

    While the multiplayer modes were fun, I found that the main game was much more compelling and ultimately what kept me booting up my DS.

    There are loads of savory things to do in this paper-made world that's funny, and original, and just solid by any and all means.

    I think most high-school kids would get a kick out of this game, regardless of whether they can play GTA or not.

    If you're new to the Call of Duty series, you're in for a real treat with the single player, and the multiplayer will welcome you with open arms. If you used to like the series and have either gotten fatigued with the template or turned off by the last entry, this game deserves at least a rental, but I'd recommend a purchase. If you simply love the franchise, period, you've probably already prestiged once or twice already devoting countless hours to the online portions.

    With this sequel, Visceral Games has masterfully expanded on the first Dead Space. They've revved up the series with tougher guns, a bigger setting, and online multiplayer, but kept the spirit and, most importantly, the scares of the original in tact.

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

    If you're looking for the best RPGs of the Hi-Def Era, this game certainly ranks near the top alongside Lost Odyssey and Valkyria Chronicles.

    The play is intense, they graphics are great, and the multiplayer is better than ever.

    At $20, if you're a racing fan, don't pass up what feels like a full game.

    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.

    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.

    To say that Treasure has done it again is a bit redundant at this point. Treasure always does it again. And Sin and Punishment: Star Successor is no exception.

    This unconventional game movement is officially part of a growing trend on the PS3 and could be its key to success instead of a major "killer app" like Metal Gear Solid 4 or Killzone 2 as you'd expect.

    This is by far the best XBLA title yet, and despite the relatively high price tag, it actually offers incredible bang for the buck.

    If you loved the original and just want more Sackboy to hold you over before Sony releases LBP 2, this would be a good purchase for you. But I’d still say $19.99 is a fairer price tag – even for the eager.

    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.

    If you’re looking for Disney nostalgia and very linear action-RPG gameplay, it’s simply a joy to see, hear and interact with all of your Disney favorites.

    Bayonetta is a superb action title that gets props for still being very challenging for the hardcore action crowd, but accessible enough for less-skilled players to play – the forgiving systems in place allow for minimal frustration, which usually leads to said player becoming much more skilled than they were before.

    Ratchet & Clank Future: A Crack in Time is yet another great entry in a consistently excellent franchise, and the best entry in the series since the PS2 days.

    If it isn’t the ‘true’ definitive RPG of the PS2 generation, it’s certainly one of the top.

    Easy to learn, difficult to master, this game is perfect for gaming on the go.

    While the 2400 MS point price is a bit on the high side, the content manages to provide more swashbuckling, looting and questing for those who couldn’t get enough from the retail release.

    • 92 Critic Score
    One of the best titles to come out for the DS yet.

    Cramming all the cars, events, options, and even a large soundtrack into one UMD is nothing short of masterful, providing exactly what the PSP needs to grow – games designed to be played in spurts, yet as massive as the same sort of game on the home systems.

    If you are an RPG player then you should not skip out on The Witcher because it has it all, visuals, audio, gameplay, story, and scantly clad women/dryads/hookers/etc.

    With a single player campaign so exciting it should be illegal, combined with an incredibly fun multiplayer, Call of Duty 2 is an absolute must-have for any gamer.
