    Stupid A.I, lack of maps, botched multiplayer interface, and a half assed story mar an experience that had the potential to be much more fulfilling.

    If you’re a Dig Dug fan, you’ll be quite satisfied with Digging Strike. If you’re not, this won’t sway you.

    While it isn't the most innovative platformer out there, it is one of the more enjoyable ones I've played as of late, and the fusion of Pac-Man stuff with regular platforming action is far smoother than I thought it would be.

    The gameplay does have its flaws, but I still manage to have a lot of fun in the many types of game modes available.

    If you hate turn-based strategy and card collecting games, this probably isn't for you, no matter how big a fan of the series you are. But if you can keep an open mind, or if you really want to learn more of the Prince of Persia back story, this is a fun game that has a lot going for it.

    Remove the decade old plot progression, fix up the difficulty, balance out the characters and you would really have a contender on your hands.

    Don’t look to the expansion to add anything new to the game that will get you very excited unless you’re completely in dire need of more animals.

    The control is flawed and attempts to handle the system's limitations in an imaginative, yet dysfunctional manner. There are many problems here from the button configuration and poor AI to auto-targeting.

    Boring, repetitive and not even close to being fun whatsoever.

    Red Steel simply screams that it's a rushed launch game, which is a shame. The game has a stylish presentation and a unique premise that, with another months of development time and polish, could of worked well.

    Gothic 3 is not a budget title, for $40 I expect a pleasant gameplay experience not frustration. That’s like paying a guy $40 to punch you in the face repeatedly.

    Unless you are a die-hard ATV fan who can put up with frustrating gameplay mechanics, I cannot recommend ATV Offroad Fury: Blazin’ Trails to you.

    But the real problem with Stacked is that it’s not worth the price tag. You can get the same gameplay for drastically less.

    Accomplishes exactly what it sets out to do. It provides a simple game play experience that will entertain younger children quite effectively.

    The Life is an innovative addition to the genre that indicates to me that Sony is serious about sports games again.
    • 63 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    The gameplay is fun at times, but the manner with which you have to progress through single player to unlock cards is downright grueling and unrewarding.
    • 63 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    While the graphics are pretty good, the game just isn’t scary, and it really didn’t make you feel that saving the main character from the curse was really important.

    Truly a poor game. It introduces us to 1080p resolution and a cool gameplay mode in NBA Replay, but fails on almost every other level.
    • 63 Metascore
    • 79 Critic Score
    The game also has several bugs, such as moving through cars, and the fact that you only suffer from car crashes by a temporary drop in speed before accelerating. In this sense, the game feels like it was rushed.

    If you must pick up this title because of a significant other, then buy another version. I can’t guarantee the controls will be better, but you’ll save a few bucks and the GCN version does play on the Wii as well.

    • 65 Critic Score
    A unique and totally serviceable game, but the thing is that it just isn’t all that fun.

    Commandos: Strike Force tries to combine its tactical strategy roots into a FPS, but you'd never be able to tell it, especially with a game like Brothers in Arms out on the market.
    • 62 Metascore
    • 78 Critic Score
    An addictive, fun, and engrossing adventure. Puzzle game fans will enjoy this, and anyone looking for a good way to kill a half hour in style should give this a shot.

    Over the Hedge features good co-operative action based off a movie that's sure to gather many fans. It's an excellent game for parents to play with their kids after seeing the movie.

    The PSP doesn’t have a whole heck of a lot of good platformers. PMW3 won’t go down as one of the best of all-time, but I will give it props for being one of the few that nails down the storytelling that makes it that much fun to play through.

    This one doesn't reinvent the wheel, but it does add some nice bling to it.

    The audio is about as enthralling as the graphics are, which is to say not that much.
    • 61 Metascore
    • 90 Critic Score
    A well-crafted game with few glaring problems and a high, but manageable learning curve. I think its replay value is hurt somewhat by a lack of Wi-Fi play, where a player vs. player time attack mode could probably work really well, but since so many parts of the game are rock-solid, I’m willing to easily forgive it for not being present here.
    • 61 Metascore
    • 73 Critic Score
    It's a shame that the rough edges weren't smoothed out, but I expected there to be far more problems than there are. The few issues here aren't game-killing.
    • 61 Metascore
    • 77 Critic Score
    I just found the frustration level of this game just slightly more than I’m willing to put up with.
