    Just all over the board in terms of gameplay, graphics and sound. One minute you will enjoy it and the next you will be wondering what you miss because you are stuck and cant get to the next level.

    Hot graphics, solid controls, decent fun factor, online gameplay which the first game didn't have; but a totally shallow game.

    I was very surprised at the level of ingenuity in this title. It would have been easy to make a sub-standard platformer, slap an Atomic Betty label on it, and call it a game. Instead, we get a character-switching puzzle game, with well thought-out levels and some increasing difficulty.

    In the end this game delivers what you would expect, a collection of classic titles from the days of yore. For the decent price of the title it's not a bad little collection.

    The Bottom Line is that even though Road to Glory is an improvement over last years AFL via feature set, the gameplay hasn't received the type of refinement that we would expect.

    For those who aren't familiar with the series, you won't find anything here that will knock you over. Without understanding how good the other games were, you won't have the context to see this one as anything but a sub-par WWII game.

    It is not as deep as a normal RPG, but its still a pretty good game.

    Just one of the most hilarious games I have played in a long time.

    A little too arcadey for my tastes. The game just doesn’t feel like a true hockey game to me.

    Frustrating controls and fighting engine, and really lackluster fun-factor keep this game on the store shelf.

    There are some things I would have liked to have seen, like using the DDR pad for the whole game, and absolutely no online play. We're in a big online push, and I think this could have been a big thing for this game. But still, it's a solid job.

    Features some very good arcade-style gameplay that will somewhat take you back to the start of the videogame era, the days when you could play a arcade game for .25 cent, the days when you thought games like "Pac-Man" and "Pong" kicked ass.

    I did not like "Kingdom Under Fire" and I do not like this game either. I still have hope that someone will make a good hack n’ slash game for the Xbox 360, but this is not it.

    One cool thing is that the terrain in the game can be destroyed

    The RPG elements do add more to the title. I was starting to get tired of the same old card duel on the Game Boy Advance, now you can have a nice little story to go along with the duels.

    One thing that I was kind of disappointed about with King Arthur is the fact that it goes by too damn quick. You basically hack and slash your enemies until the end, and that is pretty much what the game comes down too; hacking and slashing .

    If you’re a fan of Neopets you will like this game.

    I am also disappointed by the lack of blood. War is bloody and full of gore, and I want to see it all when I am playing.

    While there are quite a few lacking elements, there are just as many innovative extras to make up for it. Decent game play and a good presentation make this a title worth a look.

    Not a bad game, especially if you are a parent looking for something other than the latest shoot-em-up or blood-filled monster game.

    For the most part, From Russia With Love is an enjoyable gaming experience even though it is a rather short one.

    The visual presentation will suck in fans of the show, and the story should placate anyone who follows KP’s adventures. However, due to the lack of replay value, I’d advise those fans to either rent the game, or wait until the price comes down.

    Two things work against Stacked in the end. One, while the computer AI is great, whoever is dealing the cards needs to be looked into by the gaming commission. And it says "Halo With Chips" on the back, which gives the game higher expectations than it should. Being that I am really enjoying playing Texas Hold'em both in video games and in real life, I wanted to like Stacked. Unfortunately there are just too many other Poker games out there that are better, even with less realistic AI.

    It keeps the classic feel, but has enough new gameplay to make it solid. And it's the first real console-based Gauntlet game ever, which adds a new element to the 4 player co-op play that was a cornerstone of the series.

    It's exactly that solid game you're looking for to take with you on a long trip, or to play when you've gotten tired of all sports games and the like. Konami was smart for picking this up for publishing.

    A little late, but still a good game. But, it's not a game where you must rush out to go buy it now. Unfortunately, it doesn't compare to the games that are out these days.

    Something different and new, something that actually makes a spy game a true spy game.
