    While The Force Unleashed II doesn't push new boundaries in enemy confrontations or replay value, it's still a fun weekend romp, with plenty of enemies to kill and a great cliffhanger ending to wash it all down with. Let's just hope that the next chapter in the saga uses more development Force.

    A run of the mill sports title.

    Ok, lets face it, kart games are made for multi-player and Sonic & Sega All-Stars Racing really caters handsomely in this department.

    We're quite impressed with how well the Kinect controls worked in Rise of Nightmares. The combat itself, while repetitive is sloppy fun, as you lop off heads and kick someone back into the middle of next week – or maybe even an elaborate trap. Still, more could've been done with walking.

    A constant barrage of bullets and bloodshed from beginning to end, and the perfect excuse for a fist-bumping night of big explosions and even bigger guns.

    But the greatest advice for gamers is to skip the offline and head straight to the online play if you want to get the most out of your game. Online features the opportunity to play with up to 16 players through several different modes. It’s hands down the best aspect of the game as, after awhile, you’ll become increasingly bored with the single-player campaign.

    Silent Hill Homecoming delivers one of the few solid survival horror experiences on the system. The genre used to see a release a month, and gamers are lucky now to get two a year. Homecoming’s great story calls for a rebirth of the genre, even if the gameplay occasionally does not.

    Kinect Adventures may not be your best choice for Kinect fun, but considering its cost and various activities, you'll have fun with it while it lasts.

    Fans of the first-person shooter genre will find that Battlefield: Bad Company is an all right game with a few interesting features that’ll keep their attention for a few days or so. But when you have played all of the eight maps and finish the lousy storyline, players will venture back to their favorite FPS – whatever it may be – after their short diversion through Bad Company.

    An uneven hit or miss proposition that relies heavily on elements borrowed from shooters that came before it, but managed to deliver on the innovative feature it brings to the table.

    Star Wars may have left you wondering if they would jump the shark with Indiana Jones, but this one just leaves you hungry for the upcoming Batman title and a few more improvements.

    With an all-new graphical engine and a decent audio showing Project 8 rounds out to be a really nice game. If you can get over the repetitiveness of the level design and the insane difficulty of “sick” mode there are few things you will find to complain about in Project 8.

    Silicon Knights may not be treading into its Eternal Darkness territory here, but at least it's steering clear of its Too Human regime. This Destiny's got some weight behind it.

    Offering simplistic gameplay in an incredibly challenging package, the game is essentially a tricked-out edge-of-your-seat Asteroids clone on steroids.

    The hilarity is outstanding, and because every effort was made to ensure each episode stands on its own, the humor does not get stale.

    The choppy animations, quirky menu navigation, bad officiating, and poor commentary are enough to undo the great strides EA made in the graphics and controls.

    The game is entirely too generic in graphics and game play to be worthy of stock car racing.

    Culdcept Saga is certainly not for everyone, but is a damn solid game that everyone should at least give a shot. Those who fall in love with it will fall hard.

    Innovative, grossly original and lead by a high concept, Mirror’s Edge is the Jekyll and Hyde of video games. There’s a lot of promise inside the package that DICE created but it ultimately is a game that rests its laurels on its concept and nothing more. With no multiplayer aspect and a poor storyline that doesn’t last longer than seven or so hours, players won’t get a whole lot of bang out of their hard earned George Washington’s.

    It lacks in complexity, so those expecting the next great action game will probably be disappointed. Otherwise, if it's an arcade romp you want for 800 Microsoft points, take a stab at it.

    The top strength of Medal of Honor is in the single-player campaign, and Danger Close has done an incredible job of putting together a tribute to the Special Forces community, honoring their many sacrifices. The same can't be said for the effort DICE has put forth with multiplayer, as it feels unpolished and in some regards unbalanced and unfinished.

    Players who enjoyed the first should find the sequel to be much more unique than the original. It’s a soft-edged real-time strategy game that boasts the ability to go into missions with a handful of crew members, the ability to hire guards and a tremendous amount of bliss when it comes to violence.

    It's a bit pricey, but it delivers heftily on the great gameplay and supreme challenge, so if you're hardcore, you'll definitely get your money's worth here.

    Just please, Ubisoft, keep the party going, and don't pile on unnecessary objectives. We just want to ride.

    The already strong story is helped along the way by some really good voice acting and a fantastic musical soundtrack that fits the game perfectly.

    For a series that was considered to be dead, Dead to Rights: Retribution greatly exceeds the poor reputation set up by previous iterations in the series.

    2K9 finally sees the end of the bland Joe Morgan and John Miller era. Gary Thorne and Steve Phillips provide the analysis this time around, which is a huge improvement.

    Midway rounded out a decent looking, sounding, and playing game with good Blitz mechanics that will make any fan smile in delight.

    A perfect start to a franchise that looks to have a bright future. As it currently stands, the current game isn’t the most in-depth fighter on the market nor does it have a plethora of game modes to offer to wrestling game veterans. What it does well is recreating the history and recapturing the glory days of WWE when it was at the top of its game.

    You may get into the survival aspect, or you may brush it off. But kudos to Ubisoft for going for the gusto, rather than letting this project fall into complete mayhem. You know, like Duke Nukem Forever.
