    Gang Battle, the pub mini-games and, to a lesser extent, free-roaming mode make this title fun for a bit, just not enough to justify a copy at full price.

    Those who were frustrated with the original game will have a much more enjoyable time with Mercury Meltdown.

    There are the seeds of a good Family Guy-based game here, but they're buried under some extremely repetitive and annoying gameplay.

    DEFCON is fun, challenging, and addictive. Offering the depth that strategy fans want, and a level of accessibility that opens the game to all players.

    Stealing cars, shooting bad guys – it’s all pretty familiar stuff at this point, but Just Cause takes the formula and adds in amazing stunts and the freedom to take to the air in a variety of ways. That alone makes this title well worth a look for action fans.

    Fan boys will get they’re fix, and that’s about the extent of FBM’s scope, providing little to none entertainment value past the first 30 minutes.

    Miles ahead of its competition when it comes to gameplay, story, visuals, and sound.

    For fans of Tokyo Xtreme Racer, Import Tuner Challenge is a must-buy.

    Seasoned veterans will greatly appreciate the authentic presentation and dynamic control system, with the ability to perform nearly any conceivable move, from your various hop steps to your head fakes to your stutter steps.

    If NBA 07 didn't have such a horrid problem with blocks making every shot a risk no matter who is guarding, the game might have turned out better.
    • 59 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    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.

    Okami is a game that demands to be experienced. Amaterasu would wish it so.

    EA deserves some credit for not dropping the ball on this very important project – it paves the way for a game based on Part II...even though I have no clue how they'd make that into a game.

    The King of Fighters 2006 continues the tradition of being a consistent fighter with little deviation to the genre.

    Few games can revolutionize an entire genre of gaming, but ‘Company of Heroes’ is one of them. From the high-quality next-gen graphics to the unique style of RTS gameplay, Company of Heroes should be hailed as the definitive RTS game.

    While this version doesn’t take on drastic changes, the item stock is sufficient enough for players that want to buy a portable Bomberman that sticks to its roots and adds explosive wireless battles.

    Calling this game a nice $30.00 coaster would be a compliment, as it would mean that you’d actually have to go into a store and buy it. Instead, avoid it like the plague and hope that it gets buried somewhere in a New Mexican Desert.

    Not only does the Skill Stick help you feel a level of control and immersion not seen in other hockey games, but the presentation also helps convey a great sense of atmosphere that brings EA back towards its simulation roots.

    The annoying police system, relatively lifeless environment and weak engine sounds hurt the illusion of living the dream life but luckily, don’t destroy it completely.

    Yakuza’s a thoroughly enjoyable game that carries the burden of the usual flaws. A fighting system hurt by the camera and faulty lock-on, long loading times, and no real innovation.

    A breath of fresh air from the remakes and rehashes that appear on PSP from week to week. As unchallenging as it may be to complete levels, collecting every single fruit flower and exploring the environments provides reason to go back into 40 stages of this charming time waster.

    While it’s hard for me to generally recommend this game to anyone, I know that old-school fans of the game and masochistic gamers who enjoy relying on dumb luck along with insane difficulty will enjoy the game.

    It's sad that Xenosaga Episode III is as good as it is – had they made a game as polished, accessible, and fun as this one the first time around instead of getting all complicated on us, the series might have somehow been able to make it to six games.

    Bomberman: Act Zero is Hudson Soft’s attempt to try something new and having it blow up in its face as if the company just laid down a bomb and became trapped in between boxes.

    It comes to gameplay Disgaea 2 is far superior to any of NI’s previous works.
    • 81 Metascore
    • 87 Critic Score
    The missions and activities are fun, and the shooting action is perfectly tuned. Even as a serious imitator, Saint's Row manages to transcend its plagiaristic tone and delivers a genuinely engaging experience.
    • 63 Metascore
    • 75 Critic Score
    The presentation leaves something to be desired, but the price tag – either free or for $10 – is totally worth it for those who want some casual fun in their Xbox 360 rotation.

    If you’ve played Mario Kart 64 or Mario Kart: Double Dash!!, you won’t find anything new or exciting about Pac-Man World Rally. What you’ll find is an average knockoff of Nintendo’s venerable series that feels like it took palette-swapping to new heights.
    • 57 Metascore

    I’ll say it again, Dirge of Cerberus: Final Fantasy VII is for the fans and even they may find this game unappealing.
    • 70 Metascore
    • 69 Critic Score
    Seriously, with more varied and visually stunning backgrounds, more detailed ship models, more interesting bosses, a better soundtrack, and better power-ups, Xyanide could have been a great shooter. While the negatives outweigh the positives, it is only $19.99, controls very well, and has an interesting story.
