Yet another substandard attempt to make a splash in the shallow Xbox survival horror pool. Toss this one overboard.

The game is cute with charming LEGOs but there isn't as much of a game as even Rock Band 2. The family-friendly soundtrack is sure to broaden the appeal of this game but there are better options available if that isn't a primary concern.

At the end of the day, Conspiracy is a winner.

No fancy effects, but some great level and character designs make up for it.

Conventional review breakdowns can't do this game justice but the overall product is something you have to experience.

EA made a daring attempt at trying to portray the 1963 film, which for the most part, reached its goal despite the small lack of fluidity in level selection and plot transitions. However, gamers who enjoyed "Everything or Nothing" will be extremely disappointed to find out that From Russia With Love doesn't even come close to its previous predecessor's gameplay innovation and fast-moving action build-up.

It is easy to tell that the developers had fun making The Simpsons. The humor and satire is on a level video games rarely achieve. This game can be safely recommended to gamers longing for such a quality.

It is a silly, fun Wii game that is accessible to everyone and wacky enough that it will leave people perplexed or in stitches.

Still a fun, destructive romp through a virtual city despite obvious flaws in the game design.

An excellent adventure title that most will feel more confomfortable with on a PC. However, priced at ten dollars cheaper, the Xbox version isn't bad at all.

Almost a little above average. It has a great idea, but it just fails to implement it properly or with any real sense of fun.

What Half-Life2 did for physics, TimeShift attempts to do with time. By and large, TimeShift succeeds where many have failed.

EyePet aims its sights squarely away from the traditional shooter fan, but offers a unique perspective with the augmented reality that will make EyePet a great showpiece for new PlayStation Move owners.

Untamed is a nice entry into the legacy that Rainbow Studios has carved out for itself. However, Untamed hasn't made the jump all that well onto the next-gen consoles after the impressive showing with MX vs. ATV: Unleashed.

Cooking Mama: Dinner with Friends is not a bad game; it just doesn't expand on the franchise as much as a new sequel should.

Sure, the AI’s nowhere near present standards. Granted, its graphics engine is severely outdated. And, yeah, it’s not breaking any records in the sound department either. But therein lies its charm. If you’re like me and have been a longtime fan of the series, you’ll find this one as comfortable to slip into as a well-worn, unwashed pair of jeans.

The framerate drops, the maps aren’t varied enough, and the Xbox Live interface is a little clunky, but the core gameplay of Full Auto is truly fun.

An air combat game with potential, marred by its own identity crisis.

Metal Slug 7 is a great installment of a classic franchise.

The problems with how characters are modeled during the cut scenes are minor in the grand scheme of things, while the gameplay is the real star of the show.

The Godfather: The Don's Edition doesn't feel next-gen. Even with the new additions, it plays like a PS2 game.

WET has the all important X-factor. Despite all the negatives, WET is a thoroughly good game since the style and combat carry the game to the end.

A great game and if you can convince yourself to spend the $50 instead of just buying the Cube version for far less, then you'll have a lot of fun. However, the controls vary from new and fresh to frustrating.

If you loved the first two Crazy Taxi's then you will likely enjoy the new one, though feel the new city is a bit boring and go back to the original two. Overall it is fun package worth checking out.

MagnaCarta 2 is a generic RPG. If you want to play a RPG and want to indulge in a generic, very straightforward experience, then MagnaCarta 2 will give you some fun.

Taking advantage of all the neat things the Wii technology has to offer should be applauded, but when the core gameplay itself is merely so-so, it all goes to waste.

This is one of the best RPGs on the DS and it's a treat for Blue Dragon fans to enjoy on the go.

The game has a lot of great features and loads of content to wade through, but the developers completely missed the first, most basic elements of motorcycle racing. The thrill of riding a motorcycle is completely absent and without it, the rest of the feature set loses its impact.

NHL 2K10 tries to wear way too many hats for its own good. At most moments it tries to be a party hockey game, and if it stuck to this principle throughout and adopted fast paced, arcade style hockey then it may have had a chance to succeed. But then their attempt at realism rears its nasty head and the horrific, slow and boring gameplay gets in the way of any party you'll try to throw down.

As far as arcade racers on the Wii go, Need for Speed: Nitro isn't a bad experience.

This isn't fun, this is sloppy. Fights devolve into senseless button and stick mashing, and often lead to a lot of controller throwing moments.

You could do much better than Tron 2.0: Killer App. In fact, you should.

Turok manages to revive the ailing franchise. The dinosaurs look awesome and fighting them is just as cool.

Build a label mode seems generally linear, but it is well thought out and features an excellent cast.

MySims is an okay game in many respects but there are other, more worthy kart racing titles that have done the same song and dance much better without getting diluted with trying to cultivate friendships in a racing game.

Overall, Roogoo is a nice game to play on the DS.

Record of Agarest War is the very reason Japanese game development is accused of stagnation, and the sleazy marketing doesn't lend the game any credence. This is not 1998.

This is a classic example of graphics look better but the gameplay isn't as compelling as the competition.

Those who enjoy hack-and-slash, giant bosses, heart wrenching stories, endless sheep killing, and games that poke fun of themselves and other games will adore NIER if they can get past the ugly outer layer.
