    "Nostalgia" is a title that takes all that was once good and lovable about the genre and reinvigorates it into a brand new adventure that is set in the real world instead of one of pure fantasy. It doesn't bring much new to the table, but takes what has worked well in the past and puts it to good use.

    This unique, challenging and innovative game is a bit of a diamond in the rough and hopefully won’t fall away into obscurity again. WayForward Technologies have captured all that was good of the original, whilst perfecting what needs perfecting.

    Overall Mario and Sonic at the Winter Olympic Games is vastly better than it’s predecessor. Sega listened to the feedback provided last time and made this mini-game collection much more interesting and easy to use. Unfortunately there is no online play, which even Mario Karts Wii and Animal Crossing Let’s Go to the City manage to achieve.

    Dead Space Extraction offers exceptional presentation value and a substantial length. It brings many new additions to the genre while still featuring drop in and out co-op play. Of all the rail shooters on the system so far, this is one of the few to own.

    Kingdom Hearts 358/2 days is one of the best DS titles that we have had in our hands in a long time.

    If you can enjoy a fun, arcade shooter for your DS, Modern Warfare: Mobilized is a fine choice.

    Lack of variety and lousy damage indication soil the "Spyborgs" experience entirely.

    TMNT: Smash Up is a title that offers more variety to the library of games the Nintendo’s console has, even though it has some mistakes like a big lack of characters or an adventure mode that is far away of the quality levels.

    "Scribblenauts" is not a terrible game. It brings something new to the DS and is really fun at first. But as you progress you’ll be wishing more and more that you could simply control the hero with the D-pad and that those damn kids would stop singing "get the beat" or whatever it is they are saying.

    Despite being the third title in a spinoff series, and the 7th Mario RPG, Bowser’s Inside Story is perhaps the most imaginative and well-crafted of them all.

    Muramasa is a jaw dropping experience. Smooth play control and an awesome score really help compliment what is the best looking game of the year. With a great balance between easy and hard difficulties that can be switched on the fly, Muramasa is a game that deserves to be in every Wii owners system. Do not let this beautiful game pass you up.

    Dirt 2 is very easy to pick up and make progress in the career mode. However, in such a saturated genre, games need to do more to stand out and make more of an impression on gamers.

    The only real problem with ReBirth is that the quantity of content doesn’t quite justify the $10 price tag. Other than that, it’s another fantastic download from Konami and perhaps one of the best Contra titles yet.

    Even at a lower price, Brave is not worth the effort of playing.

    Difficult to navigate maps, poor collision detection, and boorish level design leads this to be a game to pass on in the end.

    Real Heroes: Firefighters is a entry level FPS that is a perfect start for both fans of the real thing and those seeking to get into the genre.

    This is hands down the best party experience on any home console, one that you will want to pick up as soon as you get a chance.

    Roogoo: Twisted Towers is a puzzle game that is functionally broken. The camera and control layout all conspire to work against you in what would otherwise be an insultingly simple concept. It takes a boring concept and manages to make it annoying. You will have more fun playing with your marsh mellows in a bowl of Lucky Charms then you will with this game.

    An outstanding effort for an independent third party. It raises the bar for graphics, controls, and online gameplay for FPS on the Wii.

    If the game was going to be this short, then it should have been made a tad bit more difficult to balance out the lack of content.

    Overall, this is a fun game that is a worthy entry into the Ghostbusters franchise. While there are complaints to be had with the controls and A.I., thankfully neither of these issues ruin the game nor make it unplayable. Fans of the series with a Wii should pick it up. Others might want to rent before to be safe.

    Despite the dreadful audio PDC Darts World Championship is a good darts simulation. With a few minor problems with the controls and a few uninspiring graphics the game will keep many occupied for many hours.

    For a game so predominantly marketed towards children, the title is actually fairly challenging and enjoyable. At the lower end of the price spectrum this is a great deal for people who played the original board game and for those who fancy a quick, fun little game.

    Roogoo Attack! fixes a number of problems from the Wii version, but the core game just is not compelling enough to really warrant a purchase. The puzzle genre is well represented on the Nintendo DS, and a title this basic simply belongs on the DSi shop, and not taking up space at retail in in your DS game slot.

    It takes the Lego brand and brilliantly merges it with another genre. It offers a great learning curve and can be enjoyed by just about anyone. Definitely worth a look.

    Virtua Tennis is easily one of the better tennis games on the Wii right now.

    The sum is greater then the whole with Indiana Jones and the Staff of Kings. The two player adventure is well done, and the classic Fate of Atlantis game holds up to this day.

    If you crave a unique RTS with the motion control experience, then you need to play Swords and Soldiers.

    The Legendary Starfy is a solid platform game that bases the adventure on a simple but addictive gameplay. Perhaps adding some more functions for the touch screen wouldn’t have been bad, but it is not something that affects the final result.

    Mighty Flip Champs is a great action puzzle game that truly takes advantage of the DS system for more then just a map and item screen. Its multidimensional gameplay system offers a great breath of fresh air to the genre and truly feels like a game not possible on any other system.
