LittleBigPlanet is a fantastic game. It's a great platformer with incredible artistic direction and sound, and with some great gameplay to back it up.

By the end of the tutorial, it becomes painfully clear that All Star Cheer Squad is a complete mess of a title, and it doesn't improve as you progress through the game.

It's hard to recommend Neverland Card Battles when it mostly feels like work, but it's difficult to not love it a little after seeing it through to the end, despite its prickly exterior.

Tornado is a mess of a game, with one gem of a mode buried under a piled of stinky, stinky trash.

Ultimately, Poker for Dummies is less of a game and more of a poker tutor. It has extremely limited graphics, annoying sounds, and very limited game modes. The AI is specious, and the game lacks any sort of multiplayer component.

Taking Bejeweled Twist for what it is, you are left with a clearly superior casual puzzler. Twist offers a great tweak on a classic formula, but it would have been nice if things had been taken a few steps further.

Go, Diego, Go! Great Dinosaur Rescue for the Wii is not a game meant for anyone age six or above. The lack of challenge and short gameplay, combined with constant repetition, will see to it that those players become very bored very quickly. It is for these same reasons, however, that this title can be considered very good for the younger set of gamers.

The game is just as good as the show at doing what it does, so I'll leave the purchase decision in your hands, capable parents.

All in all, Dora Saves the Snow Princess is a great game for kids. You can't really fail at any of the challenges, as you're encouraged to try again.

As of right now, World Tour puts on a solid show, but when the next game comes around, we're going to be expecting one hell of an encore.

The simple fact of the matter is that there is no reason to buy, rent or even play Ten Pin Alley 2. Every Wii sold comes with a copy of Wii Sports, and the bowling mini-game in that collection is infinitely better than what this title has to offer. Please be a savvy consumer and stay far, far away from this game. Ten Pin Alley 2 is a complete gutter ball, nothing but a waste of a disc that you should avoid at all costs.

The main plot and combat don't exactly stand out and are perhaps the title's weakest points. Fable II is short and easy, and the plot is mostly boring. Fable II isn't a game you buy to finish, but a game that you buy if you want to goof around.

Far Cry 2 looks and sounds great (voice acting aside), but it has some gameplay mechanics that make progression through the game world a frustrating task.

A very average title. Good-looking graphics are plagued with frame rate problems and questionable camera angles.

Order of Ecclesia is a top-notch Castlevania game. It has a few problems with linearity and length, but the flaws are few and far between. The gameplay is incredibly fun, the animations are lovely, and the overall enemy design is some of the best we've seen from recent Castlevania titles.

I definitely enjoyed Naruto: Clash of Ninja Revolution 2, but at the same time, I didn't come away impressed with the small amount of changes and additions.

Bioshock will undoubtedly become one of the classic games that define this generation of gaming.

Overall, it's safe to say that Touchmaster 2 is a fine compilation of time-wasting games, with a diverse and distinctive assortment of titles to please almost any palate. Accurate controls, entertaining game choices, and a pleasing presentation all combine to render the game's one real flaw comparatively minor.

Bolt for the Nintendo DS hardly does enough to keep itself interesting, even through the short amount of time it'll take to see everything that the game has to offer.

There's nothing functionally wrong with the game, but the brutal truth is that there isn't a whole lot right with it, either. It simply is, existing for the sake of its own presence. The mechanics may work, but this one could have really used a bit more polish.

It's an experience like no other, with great potential to make your own hugely memorable story line, and for that reason alone, it comes highly recommended.

If you own a PSP and you're a fan of J-RPG, you'll pick up Star Ocean: First Departure, with little doubt. The story is good. Refreshingly, the plot and voice acting are better than the same elements in quite a few much-hyped, non-RPG titles of the powerful HD console generation.

If you feel like dancing and have skipped over the previous two installments, this is a pretty good starting point, despite some of its flaws. If you made the investment in the previous titles, this is a good buy since it is the best of the three, although you should only expect a newer song list and better single-player experience out of the deal.

Disney Sing It is a flawed but ultimately fun experience. Because the game mechanics are solid in comparison to some of the other karaoke titles on the market, your enjoyment of this offering will depend solely on whether you like the song selection.

Between a modest array of games, inapplicable scoring system, and generally lacking feel for making these sorts of exercises enjoyable and producing the effect that you're actually progressing in training your brain, Brain Training for Dummies lacks what it would take to make a good experience in the edutainment genre.
