    If you want to travel on the road with Snake, then the Metal Gear Solid HD Collection is the right thing for you.

    While not without its faults, Los Angeles is a nice place to take a drive.

    For a game that borrows so liberally from other sources, Majin and the Forsaken Kingdom stands up pretty well on its own.

    This is definitely an action oriented title which also happens to feature a sizeable amount of platform hopping. If you can get past the hiccups and slight annoyances, you’ll find a game that is fun to play.

    While the gameplay is somewhat shallow, and the racing elements sometimes frustrating, there is plenty to say about getting a Transformers game with high production value and an all-star voice team. Activision and Traveller’s Tales have brought the new movie to life with a decent beat-em-up title that doesn’t succumb to the movie tie-in curse.

    Arkane Studios has done a wonderful job in transferring this PC game onto the Xbox where hopefully even more people can enjoy it.

    The number of choices are amazing; from armor, to skill set, and NPC party members you have thousands of possible choices.

    All things considered, Entrenchment is more of a “completion” of the original Sins of a Solar Empire rather than an expansion.

    Deceptively simple with a hidden layer of strategy. Katamari has a simplicity and charm that is definitely addicting.

    In a time when some games seem to be out for making a quick buck ("Army Men," I'm looking in your direction), Car Battler Joe is like a breath of fresh air.

    You won't be disappointed by the changes that have been made to make this a great experience.

    In conclusion, Final Fantasy Tactics A2 is a very good game that could have been a lot more. They could have put more effort into the music and graphics and made it a must-have, but it's still good and worth a play.

    There is a very detailed simulation in here, with many flight hours of fun and missions for people to complete. Add on the multiplayer options, and this sim has legs.

    Trust me, if you’re a fan of 2D fighters, you will absolutely love Divekick. This one’s made for you.

    While the team has definitely put in a good effort to use all the features of the Vita, a few technical issues weigh it down. Still, it is a unique experience well worth owning, especially for any fan of Assassin's Creed that owns a Vita.

    Vibrant and colorful graphics put an intricate world in the palm of your hands.

    And for those of you who do and who want to get a little drawing time in, you can't really go wrong with Colors! 3D. It's available for a reasonable price – $6.99 in Nintendo's eShop – and allows you to put your 3DS to use honing an actual useful skill.

    A rock solid RTS.

    While the game isn't flawless, there's enough fun and charm involved to make it definitely worth playing.

    Say what you will about the little things that make UFC Personal Trainer a little clunky to use, I used it and I got results. In the end, that's what counts.

    Myst V certainly is not the leap forward game that the original Myst was, but if you like solving puzzles, Myst V will satisfy the Lara Croft or Indiana Jones in you.

    The driving model takes a little getting used to, but once you do the variety of vehicles will keep you racing for a long time to come.

    The few places where it stumbles are more than made up by the polish and attention to detail everywhere else.

    There's a lot of quests in the game. A lot. In the first ten to fifteen levels alone, you're likely to do 50-100 quests, if not much more. While the game seems to have only a small number of areas available at launch, each area is quite large, and there's a fair amount to do in each area as you progress to level 50.

    Strategy is the entree and MMO are the sides here. I've enjoyed the dozens of hours I've put into the game, the biggest question is if it would hold up for dozens of hours more, and my answer to that is I'll unlikely play in any long-term sense, it just hasn't held my interest enough to encourage me to do so.

    The gameplay of Final Fight holds up surprisingly well, even if it is repetitive.

    While the AI has its issues as detailed above, it does a good job of helping players learn how to be better poker players as well as some of the basics on how to bluff someone.

    With a fairly lengthy single player game, a well polished multiplayer experience, and the best use of the Havok engine I’ve ever seen, it’s hard not to love Red Faction: Guerrilla.

    The key word throughout this review has been "surprising." Pearl Harbor Trilogy: 1941 - Red Sun Rising is way better than it has any reason to be. Legendo, the developer, is definitely on the right track with this one. If any of this sounds interesting to you, this game can be purchased for only $7 on WiiWare, and I guarantee you'll have a good time with it.
