    Although the game is short and there isn't much replay value, I can see myself coming back to this one over and over again because of the addictive gameplay and gritty storyline.

    Gearbox has a solid franchise here, and if they can boost the graphics and bring the environments into play more, then they could rival "Call of Duty" for best WWII series on the market.

    You never feel like things are dragging on and the next goal is always in sight.

    The game will beat you silly, but the challenge and gameplay are so much fun that the need to press forward is strong.

    The big thing to talk about in this section is the Owner mode section of the Franchise mode... This honestly is an unprecedented move by EA and it is really an exciting section of the game.

    In the meantime, go out and get Dragon Quest V, and enjoy one of the best "lost" RPGs of the Super Nintendo generation.

    What can you say? It’s Metallica. If you like Metallica, pick this up. If you don’t, you may want to skip it.

    One heck of a story, and has a decent engine to back it up.

    Treasures of the Sun is a nice side diversion with Dungeon Siege 3. The core game remains a fun hack-and-slash loot-a-thon, and the DLC gives you several hours more game. The dungeons are well laid out, the enemies are challenging, the loot is plentiful, the art is gorgeous, and it's absolutely worth your time if you enjoyed the original game.

    Whether you enjoy the humor aspect, the run and gun gameplay, or the fast and furious multiplayer, Glitch has a little something for everyone. The small details in the title and some of the innovations will keep you coming back for more, even if some of the gameplay is mindless repetition.

    For all the hype that floated around the original Scribblenauts, it ended up delivering a lot less than promised. Super Scribblenauts delivers the goods in a way that the original couldn't.

    This was Nintendo’s second effort at putting Picross on the DS, but they really knocked it out of the park here.

    Criterion should be commended for trying to try something different in Burnout Paradise.

    While the game might be a bit simple for some, veteran gamers will still enjoy the deep story contained within Still Life.

    While the emphasis on the story of Final Fantasy XIII makes for an interesting tale, the gameplay feels sacrificed, making FFXIII a good game but unfortunately not a great one.

    It's obviously not for everyone, but you can't deny it's charm. This is definitely Rare's best release on any Microsoft platform, and it is a wonderful game to play.

    If you are more a fan of music titles than the Fab Four, then you might be disappointed in the shorter songs and roughly half the songs you’d normally expect for the price. Any way you slice it though, this is good music that folks from almost any generation can relate to - I can’t think of a single band that has ever pulled that off, or ever will again.

    I've discovered it’s pretty much impossible to sit still and play this game at the same time.

    Underneath a 'kiddy' looking facade lurks a game of amazing depth.

    My easy answer on this game is that if you found "Xenosaga" wanting in the story department, then you need to look into this title. It seems to do everything right.

    Easy to learn but difficult to master as your tactics need to be adjusted on the go.

    The single player is robust and action packed, while the multiplayer tends to be a bit more tactical.

    There is a massive amount of items, music, people, and scooters to unlock, as well as levels and movies. You could play this game for months and still not final all that it has to offer.

    ESPN NFL Football has the better graphics and commentary while "Madden 2004" has better controls, gameplay and arguably more replay value if you're into franchise play.

    The simplification of the controls from the PC version to the XBOX version makes it much more accessible to those that are unfamiliar with the Rainbow Six/Ghost Recon games.

    If you have the hankering to play a action top down shooter that looks good and has addictive gameplay, look no further than Shadowgrounds: Survivor.

    Anyone tired of the WoW juggernaut or who wants something else to try are doing themselves a disservice by not giving Warhammer a try. With just a little TLC it has the ability to grow very long legs.

    A great extension of the "Quake 2" storyline. While there are certainly flaws in the single player and multiplayer, the game’s fantastic visuals and engaging storyline make it a worthy addition.
