Mario vs. Donkey Kong: Minis March Again is a great game that shows that Nintendo is slowly but surely becoming more comfortable with the idea of downloadble games.- Gaming Target

If you’re looking for a game with fun-to-learn controls and if you’re tired of the fictionalized fighting in the recent Street Fighter IV or, dare I say it’s fake, WWE Legends of Wrestlemania, UFC 2009 Undisputed might be the true knockout you’re waiting for.- Gaming Target

Too often, an old game becomes an "extreme" game with the addition of pulsating light displays and techno music. But after the colorful, swirling backgrounds turn to black, Space Invaders Extreme is still just Space Invaders, a game that is over 30 years old.- Gaming Target

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

If you've still got your copy of OutRun 2006 lying around, OutRun Online Arcade won't provide anything new beyond being the best looking version of the game to date.- Gaming Target

The Godfather II movie has been hailed as the best sequel ever. The game version is fun, but technical issues, a lack of replayability and a sense that it feels hemmed in by the restrictions of the license prevent it from receiving the same accolades.- Gaming Target

At the end of the day Dark Athena doesn't stand next to the original title. It lacks the innovation, and on top of that, the new campaign missed much of what made Escape from Butcher Bay so grand.- Gaming Target

It's not long enough to own at full price, but Wanted introduces enough new gameplay elements, like curved bullets and rounded cover, to make it worth checking out, even if it’s only nine levels.- Gaming Target

Wanted: Weapons of Fate continues the story of the movie and can be considered Wanted 1.5, so fans of the film and comic should definitely give the game a try.- Gaming Target

Whether it’s the similar gameplay (My Life as a King excluded) or the recurring four races or even just the general look of it, I usually know what I’m getting with a Crystal Chronicles game and usually I like it. The DS version of Echoes of Time manages to uphold that tradition quite nicely. The Wii version, sadly, does not.- Gaming Target

Echoes of Time, like most Crystal Chronicles games, uses the more classical fantasy style of past Final Fantasy games unlike the guns and motorcycles found in later releases.- Gaming Target

The most disappointing thing about Wanted, however, is that it ends after a mere nine levels.- Gaming Target

Overall, the Xbox 360 edition of Peggle has turned out to be the most feature-packed version of the game yet.- Gaming Target

MadWorld is an astounding visual and auditory achievement that really shows off the "power" of the Wii. While the story is patched together and inspired by dozens of other movies and games, it's engaging enough that you'll want to know just what kind of a mad, mad world Jack is living in. But the repetitiveness of the action will ensure that once you put MadWorld down, you may not pick it up again.- Gaming Target

If you can look past the remarkably average gameplay, Eat Lead: The Return of Matt Hazard is an enjoyable action parody.- Gaming Target

Despite its shortcomings, Shadow Dragon lives up to the franchise by offering deep characters, an incredibly diverse cast of characters, a lengthy and engaging campaign, challenging gameplay and for the first time, online multiplayer.- Gaming Target

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.- Gaming Target

New scare techniques aside, the graphics, gameplay, and multiplayer have all been accomplished by other developers. F.E.A.R. 2: Project Origin is a shinning example of how to top a well regarded original title.- Gaming Target

House of the Dead: Overkill is a great attempt to bring light gun games back from the video game graveyard, offering a unique style, entertaining scenarios, and a bit more depth than you would normally find in this type of shooter.- Gaming Target

Onechanbara: Bikini Zombie Slayers is not a classic. Even at the game’s low price of $39.99, I would be inclined to say that it’s overpriced with it's craptastic storyline, an outdated presentation, and redundant gameplay.- Gaming Target

X-Blades has the elements to make a fun hack-and-slash with the pretty half-naked girl, nice variety of magical spells and flashy effects. But the lack of variety, dumb enemy AI, annoying gameplay choices and a truly dislikable main character makes this a rental at best.- Gaming Target
