Forgoes the spunk of its predecessor in a vain attempt to update and build a franchise, and brings mediocrity to an all time record by managing to be absolutely average in every aspect except plot—where it manages to be different and be dismal.

Sound is almost embarrassingly unremarkable.

Neverland Card Battles has more problems than solutions and entertainment value.

Adventure games are not inherently boring, and neither are murder mysteries, but all of the pointless procedure that this game throws at you will, at least as you play it, make you forget all of the enjoyment that you ever got out of either of those things.

Receiving this game as a Christmas present is worse than getting a lump of coal. The bogged down play control, the tasteless graphics, and weak game play concepts make the The Polar Express a title that should be avoided at all costs.

Spiderman Friend or Foe contains nothing but broken gameplay and was created to make a quick buck from the ignorant consumer.

Overall, it’s the AI problem that really mars World Poker Championship.

Unfortunately, in the case of Laser Squad Nemesis, the developers inexplicably chose to turn their back on the 21st century in regards to its online componant, a step backwards that hobbles what might have otherwise been a compelling title.

Through the use of the official Rapala license, this game should be been a killer fishing sim. Instead, this game entirely misses the point.

For people who are looking for this particular niche of gaming there really isn’t much. That said this one should still be avoided for any reason besides a few sad laughs at someone else’s expense.

From the glitchy programming, the poor graphical quality, a camera that never listens to the player, and horrific level design, Brave: A Warrior’s Tale is an incomplete product.

Budget does not have to mean crap, but this game might fool you into thinking that. Iridium Runners is probably the only game I can truthfully say was painful to play.

This game might not entertain even young players for very long, considering I finished every level within 35 minutes. Noddy is actually one of the shortest games I have ever played.

Not even worthy of a rental. Just stay away.

The ability to play as a non-human Ak’Kan is interesting, but other MMOs have already gone there, and those games don’t lock you into playing just that race for any other character that you make on that server- the developers really need to figure out a way to let me make different raced characters in my other character slots and not make it an all-or-nothing affair.

If you want trigger-happy jungle thrills, go back and play the couple of jungle levels in "SOCOM II" with some of your own '60s music blaring in the background. That's much better.

There’s no tutorial to ease you into the game, the manual is overly cryptic, there’s no adjustable difficulty level, and combat seems almost intentionally tedious.

The trial and error form of play becomes tedious, and the game only uses the D-pad or stylus to make selections. Boring is the best and only word to describe this game.

Ford: Racing: Off-Road is probably not a game that anyone is going to run out and get, and that is for a very good reason. It should probably be a prize that is handed out for either eating an entire box of cereal or test driving a Jeep.

This game is not even worthy of a rental so I strongly advise that you stay away. Now if you’ll excuse me, I am going to go play a better game…it’s called Sneak King.

There is too little of interest for people who don't care about the series, but fans may not mind spending a few hours with it.

As I actually played Vegas Party, though, I realized that I’d rather be alphabetizing my CD collection than finishing up the game.

The graphics are from about 15 years ago, the programming is poorly coded, and the written dialogue is laugh out loud embarrassing. The budget price of $20 is not worth the frustration.

Play the DS or 360 version instead.

So many things in this game are either unpolished or retarded that it’s hard to care about the subject matter.

Unless something drastic happens to the series, perhaps THQ is better putting this old dog down.

The music is simple, though repetitive and the graphics are actually pretty good compared to the game play. If I was a little kid and my parents bought me this game, I’d get a few good days of play out of it before trading it in for a well made game… or any game really.

Even with the budget price of $20, this is not a recommended game. The quirkiness is a little too over the top and the touch controls are shoddy at best.
