This is the kind of game nerds play when they’re waiting for new Dungeons & Dragons campaign books to come out.

Though the Hobbit does decent job in recreating the events of J.R. Tolkein's famous book of the same name, simplistic objectives and an overall easy quest hurt an otherwise average game.

A buzzing, colorful and ultimately fun strategy game that lacks the bells and whistles to really turn it into something special.

An enjoyable RPG experience with some interesting game play elements provided you can get past the shortcomings.

A great way to add new travel options to your existing Sim City 4 infrastructure, with a somewhat gimmicky U-Drive-It mode.

Ultimate Baseball Online is an interesting idea, but technical and control issues hold it back from being any more than a temporary curiosity.

Far from an Editor's Choice game, but it's still fun just for the novelty of it all. Don't set your expectations too high and you won't be disappointed.

A great concept filled with potential butchered by its numerous problems.

The new additions lack enough substance to make Zero Hour worth the investment for those who weren’t sold on the original.

A decent game if you dig mystery fiction and have an itch to use forensic tools.

The story is as full of holes as a bullet ridden block of Swiss cheese.

I do not recommend Moto Racer 3 to anyone over the age of twenty-one.

Entertaining while it lasts, but not innovative in gameplay or storyline.

For those that are looking for just a little bit more of the genre, and love deep stategy games this could be right up your alley, but for the average armchair warrior this may be a bit beyond the range of your interests.

A disappointment. Not as good as the original. This is a series that has definitely lost something from its Interplay roots.

In the end Rush for Berlin is a less entertaining version of Codename: Panzers that looks a bit better and has a few moments of intense combat but mostly comes up short in this department.

An average title all-around. There’s no element about it that stands out and the gameplay is extremely repetitive.

With varied missions, nice visuals, and an awesome musical score Commandos 3 is a game you very much want to enjoy, but in the end there are too many issues to keep you from fully feeling satisfied.

If you’ve always wanted to play M.U.L.E. again without going through the trouble of using an Atari emulator, this is the game for you. For everyone else there are deeper, and more addictive, strategy games out there.

For "Giants" veterans, don't expect too much from A&D, as it isn't half as special as its precursor, but I would recommend playing it if only for the fantastic cutscenes.

A decent budget action game that will satisfy many gamers, yet is somewhat lacking in detail and environmental interaction.

Even if you loved The Matrix, the same may not hold true for this MMORPG. We're over it, and by the looks of it so are they.

The core for a good role playing game is evident, it just lacks the polish that we hardcore gamers have come to expect from our RPG's.

Island Extreme Stunts will give old Lego fans, as well as little ones who have just taken to these classic toys, the delight of finally seeing those little Lego guys come to life.

The best of its genre, which isn't saying a lot to be honest, but it will definitely appeal if this is the kind of thing you enjoy. Unfortunately, Enigma's niche appeal doesn't make it a particularly attractive proposition to anyone else.

Its many positives cannot escape the pull of its non-intuitive interface and plodding pace.

Though beautiful and relatively faithful to the books, it is not the most creatively accomplished game and does little to capture the genius of the novel.

There are plenty of modes, surfaces, and players, combined with some sharp visuals, but unfortunately, the slow gameplay and weak intelligence of opponents dampened the overall experience for me.
