    It may be subtle, but they add a spritz of freshness to what many feel is a stale series, and is reason enough to purchase Mario Party 8, especially for those holding out for something new in the franchise.

    The game only loses points because of limited replayablility and a poor story.

    The lack of a save feature for high scores is a disappointment, but it's still a nice addition to an arcade-lover's library.

    It's easy enough to get into and fun enough to play for hours at a time, even when you aren't advancing the main story. Very nicely done.

    The visual design is the best part of the game.

    The series is one of the more original console offerings out there and worth the time for any gamer looking for something a little more real.

    It may have slipped under the radar before, but now is the perfect time to give this unique game the second chance it deserves. Don’t miss out.

    Talk about a lot of bang for your buck: ten dollars for a fully functional online Bomberman.

    The postman often getting in my way in running around Hyrule Town was a minor annoyance.

    So, On Tour is not the best game and the series and does little to progress the franchise, but Guitar Hero fans now have a decent distraction while away from home.

    Blizzard deserves a round of hearty applause for adding a save system to the game, which makes it much more appropriate for portable gaming.

    The visuals are smooth and colorful, just like the films, and the gameplay is set up to bring little skating fans joy.

    While this game is a bit too fast, thereby affecting strategy, and the title could use some more character, it’s still a solid hockey game for the fan on the move.

    There's no question in my mind: If you've never played Super Mario Bros., you can't call yourself a gamer. This is a pretty decent way to get to know Mario and Luigi, but there are flashier ("Super Mario All-Stars") and deeper ("Super Mario Bros. Deluxe") ways to do it.

    FFIV has always been a solid game and will always remain that way, but some games don’t hold up as well as others over the years and, for most of us, nostalgia can only take you so far.

    Over The Hedge serves quite well as a light-hearted stealth action game. It’s not enough to make you forget that there’s no Metal Gear on DS, but it does boast a somewhat new use of the system’s features, and for a portable game based on a family movie property, exceeds all expectations.

    A few problems keep the score from being higher, but both weird and conventional this is a fun title.

    The entire time I played the game, I wondered why it didn't compel me as much as I knew such a well-designed game should. I have come to the conclusion that it is because I've seen three of these games in the last couple of years.

    Granted, this chapter isn't quite as fun as the previous three. However, chapter four is a great, story-driven addition that ties various characters and plotlines together more than earlier chapters.

    Zelda has aged rather gracefully compared to some of the games from its time, and it's worth picking up for the portability factor alone.

    2006 FIFA World Cup is easy enough for a soccer novice to pick up and enjoy, but deep enough in detail and difficulty options to please the hardcore futbol fan. Though not beyond figuring out, more detailed in-game explanations or tutorials could have only helped make this game more accessible.

    This game hit its peak on the N64, and while NST has done a great job at polishing and cleaning it so that it’s super tidy and sharp, it really doesn’t revolutionize the original title.

    Essentially a marketable way to attract new players to the Meteos concept, and it works. The only real problem here is a minor one -- for some reason, the game continues to progress when in Sleep Mode, resulting in a Game Over as soon as the DS is unfolded.

    Where Swordcraft Story was a focused drive to a goal, Swordcraft Story 2 revels in the journey. What has not changed is an engaging storyline, enjoyable leveling and realtime combat strategy polished to the point of being able to be enjoyed by players at any level.

    Most people will tell you to buy the DS version over the GBA version. I beg to differ. The GBA version is, in my opinion, fully equal to the DS version if not superior because you can play it on the big screen with the Game Boy Player, it has co-op multiplayer, it is cheaper, and, besides the space combat, it works the same as the DS version.

    It's definitely worth playing. It's a gem in the Wii library.

    A pleasant enough game that seems like a sure way to keep fans of the show happily occupied for hours on end. Older gamers who aren't turned off by the cutesy style and themes will find a moderately long and generally amusing trip through this silly little cartoon world.

    Despite these issues, TouchMaster 3's neat presentation and overall variety set it apart from most other packages of mini-games.

    What this game lacks in glitz and glamour, it makes up in structure, skill and longevity.

    One of the most surprisingly fun games I’ve played in some time. The sheer variety of the levels is outstanding.
