The greatest illusion accomplished by Time Crisis 4, aside from making the player feel masculine while controlling two of the most flamboyant leads in shooter history, is the transformation of your PlayStation 3 into a full-blown arcade machine.

Sega Bass Fishing is worth a few quarters in the arcade, no question, but just doesn't cut it over the long haul.

Even with its issues though, MX vs ATV: Untamed is a rollicking good time, incredibly well-suited for a portable platform.

As for me, my trip is over, and it's one game I'm never going to revisit.

Altair's Chronicles is a stale, uninventive rendition of the universe of our favorite wall-jumping assassin, Altair and should be avoided at all costs.

Eventually, even the card element wears a bit thin. For a title that has 20th Anniversary plastered over the front cover, Starforce isn't so much a celebration as it is a remembrance.

While the combat can be rough and punitive, and the graphics won't make you stand up and shout, its whole is greater than the sum of its parts. While by no means a perfect game, it offers a fun and decidedly different take that's unique to the PlayStation 3 platform.

Yet another black mark on Sega's formerly meaningful name, and easily one of the most disappointing Sonic games ever made.

While NIS is known for developing and publishing games with cutesy 2D art, Dragoneer's Aria sports rather bland 3D visuals.

Hot Pixel just isn't very good, despite a few decent ideas. It's a collection of mini-games of variable quality bound together by an obnoxious urban style, and throwing in some classic Atari touches isn't going to make it any more tolerable.

The goal of becoming a chef is quickly lost in the mundane nature of most of the missions.

Brain Assist is mildly entertaining, but I'm not feeling any more clever for having played it.

In the end, though, the biggest problem with Avatar, just as it was with its counterpart on the DS, is its almost criminally short length.

Overall, Empire Earth III just feels cheap. Poor visuals, poorly thought out design choices, a completely lack of originality.

If you can ignore the occasional glitches and poorly thought out menus, Two Worlds can be a fantastic single player experience. Just don't buy for Xbox Live...at least not yet.

The problem is that three bad games plus six ranging from barely adequate to decent plus a final "pretty good" one doesn't add up to anything worthwhile.

Food Frenzy has an interesting visual style based on the ending credit sequence of the movie, but that's not enough to spice up the repetitive nature of the gameplay.

Operation Darkness isn't going to keep the poetic part of your mind captivated, but the strategist in you could get addicted.

For most gamers, the clunky ship battles, shallow combat and overall lack of cohesive adventure will have you looking elsewhere rather quickly.

Even with a solid multiplayer though, there's no reason for America's Army: True Soldiers to be priced and marketed in the same class as other AAA FPS games available on the Xbox 360.

Aside from the nostalgia factor, Godzilla: Unleashed doesn’t have much else going for it.

Heavy on lackluster stealth and light on atmosphere, quality, and most importantly fun, Vampire Rain is best left to the same fate as the Nightwalkers.

While some games sell the cheese-factor and are still fun, Zombie Ninja Pro-Am is just plain bad with nothing at all to counterbalance all the negatives.

The kids will get a kick out of all their heroes being in one place, while Mom and Dad can enjoy a few hours of alone time. It's win-win!
