    Commanders: Attack of the Genos is no comparison to any modern strategy, it isn’t a comparison to many strategies within the last ten years even, but this game does surpass what 80% of Xbox live arcade currently holds by a long run, as it introduces originality, character & value, this is a rarity that needs to be looked up to.

    Sure, some of the new features are nice; the editing films feature is the best thing about this game. If you’ve only just recently gotten into skating games, then Tony Hawk’s Proving Ground is worth checking out. However, for Tony Hawk’s veterans, it may be time to start looking elsewhere.

    If you like your open-world games, guns and massive explosions then Mercs 2 will set your world on fire, and should still please open-world fans despite its many faults. It just may be worth waiting for the bargain bin sales or opt for a rental instead.

    What absolutely kills the replay value, however, is the lack of Xbox Live play.

    A fun and entertaining game but due to its length I would recommend this as a thoroughly entertaining rental.

    The lack of genuine Live play does hurt the longevity of the game but I guess you cant have everything.

    An interesting, atmospheric, engaging and most importantly fun to play shooter despite being a little mindless at times.

    At 800 points, After Burner Climax offers a whole lot of retro value for the fans.

    Mortal Kombat vs. DC Universe is an admirable beat 'em up, although it's not the over-the-top, and excessively satisfying Mortal Kombat experience that you may be familiar with, though beat 'em ups seem to be few and far between these days.

    If you’ve not played a flying game before and have the impression that they are mind numbingly boring with added beeping then perhaps the arcade antics of Blazing Angels 2 could sway you.

    Although it is a solid fighting game, if you don't appreciate the style of the cartoons then it could get old fast, for example you might have just nailed a complicated combo only to have it interrupted and ended by a drama card which is totally out of your control.

    All of the parties responsible for this deserve to be called into question, and all gamers should question whether or not this subpar and frankly embarrassing title justifies further purchases from any of the three companies involved.

    The game runs smoothly and offers decent competition from the cpu cars.

    For an updated version of a game that came out in 2009, Big Air Edition just doesn't do enough to justify a purchase for those who bought the original Stoked. However, to those who are thinking about buying this game, I would wait as even at the average price of £25 it still feels overpriced for what you get. This title to me is a rent only or a below £15 purchase at most.

    South Park Lets Go Tower Defence seems like a game that only fans of the cartoon will fully appreciate and to narrow that down further only those who have played similar games will enjoy this as the action aspect of the game cant hold up by itself.

    The game as a whole is an entertaining race into the world of Moto GP, however marginal updates to the core gameplay may not warrant a purchase unless you're a hardcore MotoGP fan who wants another ride around the track and mop up some achievements along the way.

    What it lacks in longevity, it more than makes up for with smart level design, retrofitted gameplay and a presentation that’ll put a smile on your face, no matter what your age.

    Guitar Hero: Warriors of Rock laughs in the face of innovation and new ideas, and delivers what it does best, the very formula it invented, perfected, and sold to the masses. The only problem is, we've seen it all before, and some gamers may indeed be looking for fresh ideas and a lot more progression, especially with Rock Band 3 and others on the horizon, and you wonder just how much longer Guitar Hero can last in its present unchanged form.

    If you do want to enjoy the World Cup experience though, this is a very competent footy game, just don’t expect football perfection.

    Regardless of its faults, Sonic the Hedgehog 4 is a fun, frantic game that redeems The Fastest Thing Alive in a way that was drastically needed. If you're a Sonic fan who doesn't mind parting with the points, this is one download you certainly won't regret.

    Even for its shortcomings online and the control issues, though, Call of Duty Classic is still an enjoyable singleplayer experience that will give fans of the series a glimpse at the game that started it all…provided you’re willing to drop 1200 Microsoft points on the shorter ride.

    It's predominately very fun to play and once you "get" the commands and Aggro system down, you'll generally have a lot of fun, with the cliche story, the characters and the gameplay.

    In closing, Dark Sector is a decent action shooting game that will appeal to those gamers who like a little thinking with their blasting.

    While it’s definitely missing a few features that could’ve extended the shelf life and fun factor of the game, Command & Conquer fans will easily get their money’s worth with Commander’s Challenge. Anyone looking to scratch an RTS itch through their Xbox 360 won’t be disappointed either, especially considering the hours and hours of gameplay you’ll get for the delightfully cheap price.

    Straight away you can tell that this game means business with the amount of options you can choose from before you even get to race.

    Absurdity aside, Sacred 2 is a great buy for anyone looking for a big, long, dungeon-crawling RPG with lots to do and lots of co-op options.

    Shank, combined with its well thought-out combat and artistic style is a game that certainly appeals to fans of classic side-scrollers and gory romps of gaming mayhem, and earns its worth at 1200 Microsoft points; more so if you're able to experience both modes of play.

    Indy 2 is well worth the money. Lego is fun, Indiana Jones is fun and if you put them together you get nothing but FUN FUN FUN !!

    Aces of the Galaxy shines in the graphics and sound departments with solid game play that infuses the essence of classic space shooters.

    WWE Legends of WrestleMania succeeds in its goal of being a welcome nostalgia trip down memory lane. Long-time wrestling fans will certainly appreciate reliving this experience from the earlier years of WrestleMania.
