If you are squeamish at all steer clear of this game completely, otherwise you may find yourself smiling with glee as you lower a drill bit into some unlucky sap’s temple.

Thanks to the fun battle system, BN4 comes up as a good game, but if not for the marred music and questionable story, BN4 could have been so much better.

Offering decent graphics, decent sound, and a replay value that just doesn’t quite seem to stick, NBA Jam isn’t recommended for any average basketball game fan, only the veterans will have fun with this title.

At least it's easy on the eyes and ears: Batman Begins looks remarkably good, from twilight environments that make for a spooky Gotham City to some surprisingly impressive character models.

Just an all around good game. Where it lacks in polish it makes up for in character.

For the women playing this game, be prepared to be insulted by the coy, superficial, and silicone based character models. This aspect of the game was implemented to keep the men going once the rest of the game got boring.

The only thing that will keep you coming back to this game is the garage, not the racing. If you dream of building up an unstoppable marvel of automotive ingenuity, then this game is for you. If you want Vin Diesel's skills to rub off, it won't happen here.

The large majority of this package is underwhelming and really not that good to say the least, but the games that are good, are really good, so it's a definite toss-up.

It's not polished enough to join its high-quality brethren in the superhero game hall of fame-- but even amidst a plague of poor design blunders and bland production values, it succeeds at offering some mindless controller wrangling in spite of itself.

It's also the closest the series has been to its roots in well over a decade.

There's nothing stellar about it, but it's fundamentally solid and pretty cool to look at.

In its own right, Suikoden IV is a fine game. It has decent gameplay, it looks great, it sounds awesome, and it has a good story. But compared to the past games in the series, it’s flawed, and it’s a complete downgrade from the third installment.

What sets SSX apart from all other snowboarding games is its intense “in your face” sort of feel.

If you can get by the game's mediocre sound or another poor execution that we call a Mario plot, you'll find a really entertaining game of pinball in Mario Pinball Land.

Despite the lackluster presentation, the games hold their own. Shooting for Galaga '88 High Scores is still as fun today as it was back in 1987.

With a superb story, Fusion characters, a killer soundtrack, and a decent (albeit repetitive) combat system, Buu's Fury lets the series go out with a bang. The game does a great job of packing nearly 100 DBZ episodes into a 20-25 hour game.

As a showcase for adolescent high-jinks and a censor-pushing barrage of four-letter words, Larry succeeds as well as the average episode of "Jackass;" as a video game, it's a lackluster sequel in a series that once relied more on innuendo than on crude references and penis jokes.

The problem with many of the conventions in Spy Fiction is that they don't make the game more fun. They just seem kind of strange and unnecessary, and feel like things that a little bit more effort in the game's design could have remedied.

The single player campaign of Rogue Agent leaves a lot to be desired, if you were thinking about buying this game for the story mode, do yourself a favor and ditch that idea.

Raw and addictive, but lacks the polish to make it stand out in a niche market.

A gargantuan disappointment. With so many delays, one has to wonder how they spent the extra time. It certainly was not on the torrent of problems facing the game.
