    It amazes me how Koei can get away with releasing the same game every year, without even attempting to fix the problems that have plagued all their past entries. There’s nothing worth investing in here.

    This is the very definition of a shameless cash-cow. Anyone of sound mind must steer clear.

    Avoid like you would a vicious infection.

    Developed by Arush Entertainment, this urban-themed FPS game makes a few stabs at greatness but ultimately misses its mark by, oh, about a mile.

    Every texture repeats over and over again until your eyes cry out for something different. Even the artificially produced skies are bland and generic, possibly so the clouds don’t upstage the boring enemies you fight again.

    What annoys me most about Gorky Zero is that although it's crap, it's not amusingly so. Some games are so dire that you find yourself laughing before you shred their shiny disks, but this is so generic and uninspiring that it's frustrating.

    MLB 2K7 is not worth your time and this is definitely one game to avoid.

    An utterly abysmal game.

    In the end, it’s a game of such dubious quality I find it difficult to recommend even to fans of the films, and instead recommend it swiftly being hidden beneath better dross in a bargain bin, or, better yet, a normal, everyday, trash bin.

    A complete failure of a game.

    But by slapping a horde of white meat fodder onto a tacky shooting system and calling it a day, the developers have severely undercooked this dinner and given me a bad case of Campylobacter.

    Ninjabread Man couldn’t be a more of a generic platformer if it tried.

    Finding any redeeming qualities in CSI: Hard Evidence is like searching for clues in a crime scene drenched in bleach.

    I don't know whether a rush to meet deadlines or a half-hearted attitude led to the game being released in this state, but that is exactly what MechWarrior: Tactical Command is: a total state.

    In short, BOB has no redeeming qualities at all and I would not wish this on my worst enemy.

    There are simply no redeeming features to justify recommending Griffin's Story, even for people who are inexplicably fans of the movie.

    You lose if you buy Deal or No Deal, no matter how many times the game may say otherwise.

    If you hate someone, and I mean HATE someone, give them this game as a gift, in the hopes that they’ll play it, because that way you can say to them, “haha, you’re an idiot who plays Big Rigs!” I wish I could think of some redeeming factors for the game, but there simply aren’t any.

    Having to play George of the Jungle was without a doubt the lowest, most embarrassing moment of my gaming track record.

    AMY
    Everything about Amy is designed to frustrate and drain the player's will before they eventually throw up their hands in defeat and give up. Between the broken combat, constant annoyances in dealing with Amy, counter-intuitive controls, non-existent plot, bland characters, cheap deaths, and overall shoddy workmanship, Amy fails on practically every level.

    If you love, or are curious about, Ugly Americans just watch the show. If you need a good sidescrolling shooter fix, an 8-bit snack should suffice to satisfy your palette.

    Beyond some sharp points in the visual style, The Asskickers is a prime example of why beat 'em ups have all but been abandoned. Go play Streets of Rage if you need a reminder of how relevant that still feels – this game won't satiate anyone's thirst for 16-bit nostalgia.

    Truly a generic licensed game gone wrong.
