Persona is a great package that is worth the price, regardless of the purchasing method.

This disc a great new way to experience the events that really made Solid Snake popular. Hardcore fans will love all the extra details that they can find in this small UMD disc. However, the memory building mode is not for everyone.

High difficulty, poor construction, and annoying audio make this game a rental, at best, for all but the most hardcore of real-time strategy gamers.

Sonic Colors is a refreshing step in the right direction after years of disappointing titles.

With light platforming, simple controls, bright color pallet, basic game design, and ease of use, MySims Agent is probably the best game in the MySims series. Although best suited for younger players, adult gamers can still get some entertainment out of this title.

If this review has not convinced you to go buy this game, then just go buy it anyway. Then come back to Mygamer and thank us for telling you to get it. The character design is precious enough to warm even the coldest Grinch.

The audio, just like the visuals, is terrific. The ambience of battle, the Star Wars music, the sounds from droids and aliens; everything is done so well. You feel as though you're actually there in a scene from a Star Wars movie.

While not perfect, Call of Cthulhu is an important demonstration of what should matter in a game.

With all the content, THAW literally has something for everyone, and thus overcomes its flaws with brilliance.

There has never been a better time to jump on the FFIV bandwagon. The extras and lower price point more than justifies the content and quality in this collection.

Fans and newcomers should eat this one up.

Field Commander is nothing more Advance Wars with a fresh coat of paint. But while Nintendo players will hark that Sony stole their coveted stragety game, you can’t ignore the fact Sony’s multiplayer mode one-ups the GBA and DS versions.

Tales of Monkey Island: Episode Two manages to be better than the first one in many, many ways.

The only issue is that the intricate tech tree system sets a pretty steep learning curve for the game that can scare off lots of young, inexperienced players. Because of that, it’s hard to recommend this to people just looking to dive into the RTS genre, but it may be worth looking at for all you Starcraft and Command & Conquer veterans.

The best reinvention of the Tony Hawk franchise to date. The game makes skating fun to learn and addictive like you cannot imagine.

Overall, WordJong is a pretty addictive game. And even though it is a budget title, there is plenty here to keep players word-smithing for a long time.

The original Need for Speed Underground is still better than its sequel, which speaks for the great quality of the first game or the lack of it in the sequel.

This particular version of [Unreal Tournament] seems more like a beta than a well-aged port.

The graphics are extraordinarily fast, accurate, and clear for a GBA game.

Risen has its faults but what it does do is bring you into a world that won’t let you leave till you’ve uncovered the secrets in every corner.

Creativity and the will to venture into new territory has done good things for Mortal Kombat.

Let me put it simply; this is a fun game. It has a quickly developed plot with interesting characters and an exciting enough battle system that you'll never be bothered by the frequency of fights. However, it suffers from the curse of most great games; it's short.

To the average gamer, it may seem like Makai Kingdom doesn't know what it wants to be, but to the strategy RPG fan it's exactly what it should be.

Nancy Drew: Resorting to Danger isn’t a perfect game.

Tomena Sanner on WiiWare is a perfect platform for this user friendly/cheap thrills style of quirky gameplay.

There aren't many unique mini-games after the first few stages.

Because of the rather boring combat system, it's a sad fact that Silent Hill 4 really isn't all that scary.

Really, this series is made for a very specific group (otakus and mega-RPG fanatics) so very few people will really love this game above other PS2 RPGs.

If you are looking for an out of the ordinary RPG for your GBA, Riviera will definitely fit the bill. Atlus, once again, has continued their legacy of making entertaining but slightly different games.

Make no mistake about it -- Burnout Dominator is a fun and addicting arcade -racing game that fans of the series will enjoy, it’s just missing some key features that would make it a one of the series’ best, for that we’ll have to wait for the true sequel later this year.

Sadly, considering the realism on show, enemy soldiers don’t bleed when shot, neither do they react in a show of dismemberment when killed in explosions.

Let's have me stop now before I go over the line, but I urge you grappling fans to pick this one up, as it's truly one of the last great wrestling games for this generation of consoles.

All in all, Undertow is an enjoyable original XBLA title. And for the price of 800MS points ($10), this game is a steal.

The bottom-line is that if you like traditional Tetris, then you'll like, maybe even love, Tetris Party Deluxe.

The game looks great on a high end gaming PC, and will even run on pretty much anything with a dedicated video card, so most people who even have a passing interest really should check the game out.

Though the gameplay in general consists of nothing drastically new, the style and narrative flair that oozes from this game really do deserve attention from the gaming public.

Nancy Drew: Warnings at Waverly Academy is an excellent example of a game that could have been a lot of fun had it just done a few things differently.

This is one you can feel confident about showing your family and friends who are normally saying things like "pish-tosh" when you bring up video games.

If you really want to get into the KoF series, but can't deal with the low grade graphics, then pick up "KoF: Maximum Impact," but if you want a solid, fun, high-quality fighting game that delivers masses of playtime, then King of Fighters 2002/2003 is well worth the investment.

This entire season is a buy, regardless of the short fallings of this one episode. This small inconsistency is completely fine in the long run and still stands as a solid adventure title.

If you enjoyed Kirby's Canvas Curse or are looking for the next puzzling platformer, this could be a good way to spend 1000 Nintendo Points.

At best, Groovin’ Blocks is an average puzzle game.

Drawn does much to invoke the spirit of Myst and manages to do it a whole lot better than most modern day ports of the original. Pacing faults aside, Drawn is a decent game worth a play through.
