    The Sims 2
    A fun little game. It does a great job of keeping everything that made The Sims so interesting on the PC. However, the game isn’t as well suited for consoles as previous Sims games were. The removal of a real story mode is certainly a detriment. The actual gameplay is top-notch as always, though.

    Quake 4
    It really showcases the engine well and shows its versatility.

    DreamWorks Kung Fu Panda
    With solid gameplay and a great presentation, Kung Fu Panda is easy to recommend to fans of the movie or parents looking to entertain their kids with a robust yet accessible action platformer.

    FIFA Soccer 2005
    Surprisingly, the game is a rather enjoyable handheld soccer title perfect for those soccer-craving spare moments.

    The Bard's Tale
    The use of the Snowblind engine allowed it to effortlessly provide enjoyable hack-and-slash gameplay, while the dialogue and presentation provided the necessary charm to make The Bard's Tale stand out.

    Still Life
    Generally enjoyable, with good quality puzzles and an excellent atmosphere. Still Life doesn’t venture far from the typical adventure formula but for what it is, the game is commendable.

    Tak 2: The Staff of Dreams
    While the gameplay in Tak 2: The Staff of Dreams isn't that original, Avalanche succeeds at making you care for the characters because of their distinctive personality, which shines through the story.

    Just Cause
    One of those amazingly fun, carefree games and doesn’t take itself too seriously. The action is hectic and breaks every law of physic and though the gameplay isn’t that varied, it’s still quite fun.

    Madden NFL 06
    Perhaps the most annoying quirk about the visual presentation is the loading which is a bit too frequent.

    Gun
    The game’s music fits a Western-themed game very well while providing enough oomph to make the battles appear even more dramatic.

    X-Men Origins: Wolverine
    X-Men Origins: Wolverine is a superb action game especially for fans of the character. This is the Wolverine game that fans have been waiting for. It’s not incredibly varied and a lesser game would have suffered because of this but Wolverine is just incredibly fun.

    X-Plane Version 7
    Hardcore flight sim. Very hardcore.

    Ultimate Spider-Man
    Though the game isn’t perfect, the addicting story line and amazing presentation are definitely welcomed. If Treyarch had kept the bigger city and more advanced web swinging techniques, Ultimate Spider-Man would have been the definitive Spider-Man game.

    Every Extend Extra
    It has solid if a bit frustrating gameplay and the number of stages is limited. Nonetheless, it proves to be one of the better puzzle games available for the PSP.

    Serious Sam II
    A fun little game. Unfortunately, in the time that passed since the original game it has lost some its appeal. Either that or we expect more from a fully priced game.

    Destroy All Humans! 2
    It plays nearly identically to the first game, although the new weapons and co-op mode are fun distractions.

    The SpongeBob SquarePants Movie
    A surprisingly solid platformer with variety, thanks to the complex combat, driving and additional challenges to recommend to platform fans.

    Midway Arcade Treasures 2
    Isn’t the best compilation that money can buy. For $20 though, you’ll be getting a lot of games which more or less function very well. If you are even remotely interested (particularly in "MKII" and "MK3") be sure to pick it up.

    Naruto: Clash of Ninja 2
    Although it probably won't bring in many new fans, Naruto loyal will find a lot to like in the game.

    Super Monkey Ball: Banana Blitz
    It’s a great showcase for the unique capabilities of the Wii and an undoubtedly fun game on its own.
    • 74 Metascore
    • 85 Critic Score
    Formula One Championship Edition
    The game’s graphics are great although not phenomenal when compared to upcoming PS3 games like "Motorstorm."

    Midway Arcade Treasures 2
    If you are even remotely interested (particularly in "MKII" and "MK3") be sure to pick it up.

    Destroy All Humans!
    The atmosphere whether it is the environments or the dialogue or the music is simply top-notch. The game mirrors its source material with amazing fidelity and keeps you laughing all the way through. That elevates it from a simply okay game to one that is certainly recommended.

    Genji: Dawn of the Samurai
    The team has definitely nailed the presentation aspects of game making, and coupled it with very solid gameplay. The gameplay isn’t exemplary though, the story could be more intricate, and the game could be longer.
    • 74 Metascore
    • 88 Critic Score
    Marvel: Ultimate Alliance 2
    Marvel: Ultimate Alliance 2 is certainly the most refined game in its series (including its prequel and the X-Men Legends game before it).
    • 74 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Big Brain Academy
    Visually and aurally, Big Brain Academy is just what you would expect. The game’s looks are colorful and welcoming but at the end of the day, you’re playing simple minigames. Likewise, the audio is equally simple yet charming.
    • 74 Metascore
    • 83 Critic Score
    Tourist Trophy
    The sound effects do a great job of selling the experience. You’ll hear the wind moving past your bike as you hit top speeds.
    • 74 Metascore
    • 89 Critic Score
    Ridge Racer 6
    Though it isn’t the most technically advanced out of the Xbox 360 launch titles, the sense of speed is amazing, which almost makes you forget that it isn’t as pretty as it could be.
