    The quick gameplay, stellar animation, improved graphics, better AI and addition of more minigames make it a very compelling package.

    A fundamentally solid game that does a good job of integrating the material of the film with solid gameplay.

    Tony Hawk’s Proving Ground is easily the best Tony Hawk game to date. Everything from the varied career mode, new gameplay features and video editor come together in a great, cohesive package.

    The game is complicated and unwieldy with the Wii Remote, but manageable on either the Classic or Gamecube controllers.
    • 72 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    The different characters manage the spice the game up a bit, and should be enough to satisfy younger fans of the film.

    While there is nothing particularly wrong with it, it just doesn’t do much beyond what is expected in terms of actual gameplay.

    Probably the finest DBZ fighting title in terms of pure gameplay. The game takes obvious inspiration from new and classic fighters and successfully plugs it into the DBZ formula. However, with the increased focus on technical gameplay, some of the flash found in the Budokai titles is missing.

    Life Stories is aimed at people who grew tired of The Sims but don’t have the necessary computer hardware to upgrade to the full version of The Sims 2. If you’re in this group, The Sims: Life Stories serves as a nice middle-step, but you’ll be better off upgrading to the full-on Sims 2.

    The animation is excellent as are the level designs. Vicarious Visions did a great job at bringing the Shrek atmosphere to the GBA.

    The Xbox 360 is technically superior with no slowdown but it does lose out some features that the current-generation versions have.

    50 Cent: Blood on the Sand is a fairly typical third-person shooter at its core.

    It’s certainly the best golf game on Wii, but whether the upgrades are worth $50 if you own Tiger 07 will depend on how much you like the series.

    With solid and exciting gameplay, great graphics and sound, and a fully functional online mode, PSP gamers can’t expect much more.

    The gameplay is easy to pick up while the various challenges and conditions will test advanced players.

    As a single-player game, the AI flaws begin to add up in an annoyance, so it is strongly recommended that you play with another player in split-screen or online

    One of the best things about Shrek 2 is the multiplayer. Up to four players can play, each controlling a party member. Anyone can join in at any time, so if someone leaves, the AI will continue playing for them.

    Guitar Hero: On Tour Decades is a great expansion of the series on the DS.
    • 72 Metascore
    • 85 Critic Score
    Dark Sector doesn’t try to revolutionize the action game genre. It just wants you to have fun, by killing enemies with an awesome weapon and going online to do the same. And it certainly succeeds as being a fun game, with great presentation values.

    If you’re a racing game fan in general and can get accustomed to the typical IndyCar Racing League races, you’ll find a depth of gameplay modes to last you well into the summer.

    If you loved Wii Sports Golf and were looking for more, this game will be exactly what you’re looking for as the game is undoubtedly the most in-depth and fun golf game on the Wii.

    The Bee Movie Game is obviously aimed at younger players and those who are interested in the movie. But even older gamers will find plenty of humor and solid gameplay to enjoy in the game.

    • 85 Critic Score
    Undoubtedly a fun little platformer. The game boasts respectable gameplay, and an impressive audio-visual combination, as well as a comical plot from the folks at Dreamworks. There's plenty to do in the levels, and plenty to unlock for a second play through.

    The commentary, though accurate, is repetitive and doesn’t induce you to pay attention. It just isn’t very interesting to hear the same lines over and over again.

    The game doesn't include all of the additional features of the Nintendo DS version but includes enough to make it a worthwhile purchase if you don't own Nintendo's newer handheld.
    • 71 Metascore
    • 83 Critic Score
    The game's combat system is fundamentally solid with an excellent combo system that is actually much more in-depth than I originally suspected.

    Guitar Hero: Smash Hits is an incredibly fun game and one that will definitely keep you entertained until Guitar Hero V arrives.

    Cars is not the most complex racing game around, but it manages to capture the Pixar spirit very well. Aside from this, it’s an enjoyable game with solid gameplay and a great presentation.

    But ultimately how much you personally enjoy Guitar Hero: Aerosmith depends on how much you like the band. If you love Aerosmith, Guitar Hero: Aerosmith is easily the best Guitar Hero yet.
    • 71 Metascore
    • 76 Critic Score
    The game's graphics are charming and colorful, and certainly very child-friendly. The many levels you'll find are of a respectable size and with many things to do, but in pure technical terms, none of this will "wow" an experienced gamer.
