It's also annoying that you have to redo every portion of a mission if you fail at one of the later objectives.

Like most Mega Man games, just don't look for much originality or innovation.

Gamers complain that games today are too easy and lead players by the hand; in Conker's case, it's the exact opposite where players are pretty much left out in the cold without a clue or a pot to – well, you know.

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

While it's easy and linear (not to mention short – 6 to 7 hours or so), Batman Begins excels where it counts, truly making you feel like the Dark Knight, stalking his prey and brutalizing those who target the weak and innocent.

The game is repetitive, easy, short, and offers nothing new to the genre besides the introduction of the fear meter. But even that is misused as you can only put fear into enemies by doing what the games tells you to do, not what you want to do.

If you could grade a game on features alone, Juiced would be higher scored, because the career mode really is well done and offers a lot of depth. However, the slow progression and mostly old, tired racing action hampers the unique features of said career.

One of the best titles to come out for the DS yet.

Why is Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas such a great game? To put it simply, the game is huge. It has such a variety of things going on that almost everybody can find a part of it that they enjoy.

I don't think it's the idea that you put a swordsman against an army of outlaws in the Old Western period that doesn't work well for Samurai Western. Rather, it seems to be the presentation of it.

Literally one of the biggest games ever created and it will take you weeks or even months just to see everything it has to offer.

Advent Rising is too easy, too short and too buggy to justify spending your hard earned money on it.

It all seems very familiar, but it's a good gaming experience that FPS fans will gobble up for a little while.

Where the Clock Tower series always employed its notion for being the victim in a stalker's nightmarish world in a very mundane and ordinary fashion, Haunting Ground does so with a zing.

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.

Built for those who want a bit more 'pick up and play' in their racing simulations, and it does that fairly well.

The game really captivated me, mainly because of the fun that it provides and the lack of realism.

It is not only the best simulator on the market, it is the best racer period.

Manages to be pretty good despite itself, as it's still NBA Street at heart, which is the best arcade hoops franchise this side of 'NBA Jam."

The new missions are nice but the lack of major gameplay changes or new PCs is a drag.

The redeeming factor of Stella Deus, its gameplay, isn't unique or enticing enough to make Stella Deus a must have for all.

Touch-screen usage is top notch, production values are high, and the nostalgia just pours in once you start playing.

Most definitely the best platform game to come to the Xbox in its 4 year life.

In the ranks of Xbox wrestling games, let alone all-time wrestling games, this one ranks quite low, mainly because of its poor execution and obvious lack of polish.

Given the much too difficult AI, the pre-load that leaves you anywhere but on track and the ATV being placed in the most annoying locations, gamers that are easily frustrated will definitely want to look elsewhere.

What the game lacks in presentation and sound, it makes up for with a fun, original concept that wouldn't quite work as well on anything but the DS.

Jade Empire is "Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic all over again." It's not the same game. It is, however, a likened journey that'll leave you completing many of the same actions you have in the other game, only this time under a different guise.

Super powers and the most comprehensive list of substitutable parts possible alone isn't quite sufficient to slice into the series with a fresh enough cutting edge.
