    Wanted: Weapons of Fate
    Some complaints would be the length (mainly because we had such a good time we wanted more), lack of features/replayability, and we would have loved a larger arsenal of weapons/locations. All in all Wanted: Weapons of Fate will do exactly what it is meant to do for adult gamers who pick it up in stores this week, provide a over-the-too fun experience with many ties (both gameplay and story-wise) to the Wanted universe.

    The Legend of Spyro: Dawn of the Dragon
    Ambitious as it is, The Legend of Spyro: Dawn of the Dragon does its job well with an admirable storyline and incredible audio department.

    FIFA 06: Road to FIFA World Cup
    It gets the job done in terms of visuals and audio, you just cannot beat that grass hands down. But the gameplay and lackluster features will drag this game through the dirt and back, unless you are a hardcore Fifa fan pick this up at the local rental store just to see the grass and take out a few Frenchman just for kicks.

    TNA iMPACT!
    It made some strides, but it’s ultimately a shallow game.

    Bionic Commando Rearmed 2
    On one hand, it's easy to say that Bionic Commando Rearmed 2 runs the basics for a sequel, not really pushing forward enough to make the formula excel. On the other, it could've been a lot worse, as it's a fun platforming romp while it lasts.

    Pac-Man
    Pac-man was always going to be an essential inclusion in Xbox Live’s collection of Arcade classics. It’s certainly worthy of a place there, it’s just a shame some updated graphics, modes and extras could not have been included to make it stand out from all the other Pac-man’s available to play.

    NASCAR 2011: The Game
    Not a failure by any means. Fans will enjoy it, and there's plenty to do in the stock car racing world until the next eventual game in the series rolls out of the pit. But casual fans may feel left behind by the game's heavy technicality and erroneous difficulty decisions.

    Divinity II: Ego Draconis
    Divinity 2 isn't a bad game solely because of its throwaway writing and the unfortunate game engine, but because it suffuses every design with hate for the player.
    • 62 Metascore
    • 67 Critic Score
    BlackSite: Area 51
    Blacksite Area 51 is a textbook example of how half-assed ideas rushed to production become half-assed games. Instead of emulating Unreal, this game makes Hour of Victory look like Game of the Year.

    DreamWorks Shrek Forever After
    At $49.99 Shrek Forever After is a great reason as any to get the whole family together for a night of laughs.

    Mad Tracks
    Mad Tracks is an underwhelming first effort from Load Inc. Xbox Live Arcade titles are understandably held to looser standards than their retail counterparts, but this title needs some polish in its graphical and audio content.

    Splatterhouse
    No, Splatterhouse doesn't revolutionize with its gameplay, and it's not quite a perfect-looking game either. But if you're looking for a bloody good time, it comes through on all fronts. Having the classic games in the package is great, too. We definitely can't deny this overhaul of Splatter.

    Blood Stone: 007
    Sadly, Blood Stone 007 lacks any real depth. It does however contain some simple gameplay that could be a great foundation for future Bond games if expanded upon and fined tuned just a tad bit more. It's easily the fastest Bond game ever created and for those Bond fans looking for more of Craig in the midst of the fall of MGM, Blood Stone is a great place to find a quick, albeit mediocre fix.

    Blacklight: Tango Down
    The maps are all well designed with plenty of places to pop behind for the numerous short-range firefights that are bound to take place.

    Disney/Pixar Up
    The video game does an excellent job at recapturing the charm and essence of what made the film so successful. The only issue is that Up doesn’t offer longevity by the baker’s dozen.

    The Lord of the Rings: War in the North
    War in the North is not a bad game, but it is an average one.

    Ninety-Nine Nights
    An enjoyable gaming experience that left me wanting more but feeling empty at the same time.

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

    Sonic the Hedgehog 4: Episode II
    The level design, gameplay and 3D bonus rounds will definitely feel right at home with long-time players, while the frustrating boss battles and terrible soundtrack leave you wondering where Sega could've slipped up in development.

    Dead to Rights: Retribution
    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.
    • 61 Metascore
    • 71 Critic Score
    Root Beer Tapper
    For a budget (400 Microsoft points) Xbox Live Arcade title, Root Beer Tapper holds up well; if for no other reason than the amount of replay needed to grab fifty wins over Live.
    • 61 Metascore
    • 78 Critic Score
    Star Wars: The Force Unleashed II
    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.

    Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen
    Not only is the duel-sided single-player campaign features plenty to do, the multiplayer online mode adds hours of fun time for fans and newbies alike. If you are one of those people that will be standing in line tonight to see the midnight premiere of the Transformers sequel this game is a no-brainer purchase, for those gamers looking for an over-the-top action game Revenge of the Fallen should not be overlooked.

    Test Drive: Ferrari Racing Legends
    Slightly Mad dropped the ball a little bit with the game's controls and limitations.

    Kinect Adventures!
    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.

    James Cameron's Avatar: The Game
    It works fine, but the out-of-place mini-game feels like an XBLA title they tossed into the mix here rather than charging for it on its own.
    • 61 Metascore
    • 54 Critic Score
    Fatal Inertia
    Fatal Inertia is an exceedingly generic racer, with a lack of vehicles, races, and variety expected from a Live Arcade title. Speed right on by this one.
    • 61 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Fable: The Journey
    While some aspects of spellcasting take some getting used to, and the horse sequences drone on way too often, you still get your money's worth here, especially if you're a fan of the series. It's just another game that takes you by surprise, despite the heavy criticism and doubts. And that's always good to see.

    Crash: Mind Over Mutant
    The game succeeds in what it is trying to be but fails to be the amazing Crash game that we are all waiting for.
    • 60 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Shaun White Snowboarding
    Much like the previous Sports Snowboarding games on Xbox 360, Shaun White Snowboarding is a slick and presentable title on the surface, which doesn’t have the mastery or depth to guarantee long-term entertainment.
