This is a piece of gaming history that's not to be missed. [Jan 2011, p.84]

If you're an Ace Attorney fan, a point-and-click adventure fan, or simply a fan of quality storytelling in general, don't miss out on Ghost Trick. [Jan 2011, p.86]

It's a creative and distinctive adventure in terms of both graphics and gameplay--rare qualities in this day and age--making this title well worth experiencing for yourself. [Jan 2011, p.89]

Bold, inventive, yet deeply reverent, Epic Mickey makes us really care about its legendary protagonist for the first time in years and stands as his greatest video game to date. [Jan 2011, p.88]

Addictive simplicity. [Dec 2010, p.86]

Polished, offers great platforming, and looks amazing. [Dec 2010, p.84]

It's hard to imagine where Harmonix can go next with the franchise. [Dec 2010, p.82]

A fantastic game. Not just a step in the right direction, but an unequivocal success. In fact, it's the best entry in the series since the Blue Blur's 16-bit heyday. [Dec 2010, p.78]

For all its sizzle, NBA Jam also offers a surprising amount of substance. [Nov 2010, p.84]

An overall lack of polish and poor enemy design. [Nov 2010, p.91]

As an older player with fond memories of early 8- and 16-bit RPGs, I found its nostalgia trip to be well worth taking. But if I were playing it without that past experience, I'm not sure how much I would appreciate its intentionally dated game design. [Nov 2010, p.86]

This latest FIFA [is] one of my favorites. [Nov 2010, p.89]

Web-heads on the move will find this a worthwhile adventure. [Nov 2010, p.90]

Although Metroid: Other M has a few rough spots, it gets the really important stuff right...Fans will likely find bits to bicker about, but overall Other M delivers the goods. [Oct 2010, p.84]

I can't help but like this two-pack...[but i]t's not $30 worth of fun. [Oct 2010, p.89]

I was pleasantly surprised to discover that Guilty Party had some genuinely funny moments. [Oct 2010, p.89]

Although it's the fifth Harvest Moon title for the DS system, not much has changed in Harvest Moon: Grand Bazaar. [Sept 2010, p.89]

Dragon Quest IX is easily the boldest installment of the series's 24-year run. [Aug 2010, p.88]

From its voice acting to its boss battles, War for Cybertron is totally for the fans--but it will also satisfy anyone who wants a good action game on the go. [Sept 2010, p.90]
