The computer AI is not quite as realistic as Konami's game this year, but is still very solid.

It's not groundbreaking, but it doesn't have to be. Kids don't care about that. They care about having fun playing it, and I think that is where Activision has succeeded here.

Blitz: The League gives a new meaning to smash mouth football.

It's is familiar in gameplay, yet unique because you're a droid.

The Movies: Stunts & Effects Expansion Pack gives you the tools to turn your Hollywood hits into blockbuster industry-shaping events.

I have to thank Sony for making the spells easier to get for this expansion. To get spells you have to kill specific named creatures and they will drop a murmite rune. You turn this rune into the specific NPC for your class and you receive a spell. This is a lot easier than the last expansion that took a lot of difficulty to get spells.

Get past the controls and you're good. That's really my only sticking point, even on the newer Xbox version, but it's unfortunately an important one.

I like this game better on the Xbox 360 than I do the PC. It's the difference between having the Xbox 360 and just putting the game in and playing worry-free, or having someone email me to tell me I really should upgrade my video card if I REALLY want to get the game to run at a decent framerate.

It's literally hours of fun, and I am as serious as I can be about that. Worms 3D takes a classic game that I have always enjoyed, added the 3D part yet completely kept the gameplay intact perfectly.

My only complaint is that I have beaten it, and now I'm done. It was a bit short for me.

The voice acting is spectacular.

Ape Escape isn’t a graphically impressive game, it more than makes up for it in its gameplay. You will have a blast trying to catch the hundreds of monkeys in the game, and you will really enjoy some of the solid platform gaming that Ape Escape 3 provides.

I'll admit, I really would have liked better AI and a jump button. But at the end of the day, I'm still playing this game to try and get the mini-goals.

NBA 2K6 is absolutely better than last year. But it's not the powerhouse it once was. I still love the game, but they need to fix some things before it really hits the Xbox 360.

If you love animals or you are playing The Sims 2 and want more, then you should definitely get this expansion.

The reason it falls short of a fantastic expansion is that it does not influence the main single player game as much as I would have liked.

This is a great collection for fans of the series out there. For those of you that are new to the games, I have to recommend at least renting this one to give it a shot.

I have only one other recommendation for Konami. Either port the game on the Xbox or make the next PS2 version usable with the PS2 HDD and broadband adapter. It would be killer to be able to download new songs to keep things fresh.

My only gripe is a lack of multiplayer mode. It's fun, but not as fun as you and a friend taking the Bydo head on. Still, Fresh Games, Eidos, and Irem get kudos for giving us one more memory of R-Type, and the excellence it maintained all this time.

It's fresh, it's a lot of fun, and it's simple. You can't ask for much more than that.

With a little more work on reforming the look of the title, tightening up movement orders in the 3D environment, and finding an easier on the eye way of presenting all of the information they manage to do at one time, Squad Assault could develop into an impressive franchise.

Pac-Man is probably the game with the most updates. And finally in all 4 games you can play co-op or head-to-head in Ad Hoc wireless play. If you happen to be near another PSP owner with the game, have at it!

My honest feeling is that UbiSoft should have made this game downloadable content for current players, or an update pack.

Would-be singers will as always love this game, and it's a must have if you are collecting the series.

First and foremost, you're going to get your hands on some cracker-jack weaponry, both firearm and silent. Each weapon has a standard and secondary fire, which depending on the weapon is pretty cool.

Minus the graphics, NASCAR '07 is just as solid as it's predecessors. The skill points are nice, as are the driver attributes. And a new story mode is always good.

It's literally hours of fun, and I am as serious as I can be about that. Worms 3D takes a classic game that I have always enjoyed, added the 3D part yet completely kept the gameplay intact perfectly.
