If you are looking for a family-friendly action-platform game, Lego Batman is sure to please. There is a lot of good content here that will please both the casual Batman fan and the old-school Batman fanboy.

It takes the 8-bit inspiration of the original Mega Man games and crafts a new classic that is a must have for NES veterans and an interesting curiosity for those who first started to play with the crude 3D graphics of Sony's original PlayStation.

Mythic Entertainment may have created the best MMORPG based on an outside property. The universe of Warhammer fits perfectly into a game of this nature, and was implemented by the folks at Mythic with precision and dedication.

For Star Wars fans, The Force Unleashed is required playing to continue your membership in the Star Wars geekdom.

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.

If you're interested in exploring odd corners and beautiful landscapes on your own initiative, it's a safe bet that you're going to enjoy the S.T.A.L.K.E.R: Clear Sky experience.

Strong Badia the Free is a worthy installment to SBCG4AP. While episode two is not quite as dynamic as its predecessor, fans will nonetheless enjoy it.

Abstraction's first published game is definitely there in terms of gameplay.

Players who missed the original game will certainly find a solid, enjoyable, but ultimately forgettable RTS experience in Warhammer: Mark of Chaos Battle March.

As the name The Last Guy suggests, saving mankind is a one person job, so there’s no multiplayer. That means that once you’ve completed the game, the only reason to run around on these real-life aerial playgrounds is to increase your score and, in turn, your position on the game’s online world ranking list.

Despite the serious online issues, Castle Crashers is pure light-hearted fun that is accessible to everyone.

Even for all of its faults, Madden NFL 2009 is still a damn good football game and that's what's important.

I found that the game’s humor and entertaining quest made it well worth the $10 investment ($8.95 for the PC). Like many adventure games, the replay value is not tremendously high, but the promise of future downloadable episodes helps to resolve this issue.

It's accessible, packs deep character customization, has much needed online play, not to mention it looks great and runs smoothly.

It's short length, combined with a very forgiving Easy (AKA "Penguin") difficulty level, means that most experienced 1942 fans will blow through the whole game in an afternoon. But if you are a fan, this reimagining is very rewarding indeed.

The dialogue is lighthearted and funny enough that newcomers to the genre might stick around and the difficulty of the quest is enough that already-made fans will enjoy it just as much as the previous one.

If you need some news tunes and enjoy Aerosmith, then it may be money well spent, otherwise save up for some licks from your favorite bands on Guitar Hero: World Tour.

In the end what we’re left with is this: a game that has plenty of unfulfilled potential with a taste of what could have been.

At 800 gamer points ($10.00) the game is way overpriced for its few fleeting moments of fun.

The Creature Creator isn't much more than a marketing tool for the upcoming Spore. Anyone itching to get their hands on the game will certainly enjoy the chance to play with the tools and build and share creatures with like-minded players.

Insecticide is an enjoyable, but short experience that you'll finish in five or six hours.

Yet, despite my or anyone else's qualms about the game it still is a great game that can be enjoyed by anyone willing to give it a shot.
