Only the best of the best will see the final missions in Sniper Elite mode, but for the rest of us, Rebellion has created a remarkable, beautifully brutal WWII game that's smarter than the usual fodder lining game store shelves.

For twenty bucks you get a deep and challenging fighter with fantastic high-resolution graphics, 26 characters, and 9 gameplay modes including solid Xbox Live play that supports Voice Chat, Friends, and weekly ranking scoreboards. This is easily one of the best game deals on any console, period.

The game's controls are simplistic and some of the tightest out there.

Same killer and addictive online gameplay you'd expect from Battlefield.

Two Thrones caps off the greatest gaming trilogy quite possibly ever released in grand fashion, and it will surely keep us busy until Ubisoft decides whether to carry the PoP label over to the next-generation.

Criterion has yet again pieced together another piece of fantastic software that pushes the limits of the current-gen consoles in every department possible. However, for some reason or another, it just doesn't feel as exciting and visceral as "Burnout 3" did.

It has its share of quirks that do frustrate from time to time, mainly early on, but in the end the sheer charm, originality and fun-factor Chibi-Robo exudes is uplifting enough to easily earn the game my stamp of approval.

Demon Stone just happens to be in a more frantic, third-person mode, yet the same immersion is multiplied ten or twenty fold. You’d have to be pretty jaded to dismiss this game without giving respect to Stormfront for pushing the visual envelope on the memory-starved PlayStation 2 and bringing gamers who’ve never experienced a Forgotten Realms game a taste of one of the worlds of D&D.

Had the comedy not fallen so flat and completely undermined what is otherwise a great story to follow, I seriously would have considered this as a personal RPG of the Year contender for last year seeing that the gameplay is just as fun as any RPG that came out in 2004.

I hated the last four Ace Combat titles, but now, I am a believer. The Unsung War offers up a great story, fantastic gameplay, and a gripping experience that you should have you by the balls from the beginning.

A truly fantastic game that is without a doubt the best game in the series. However, it is disappointing that the control and camera problems from the last game weren't fixed, and the new focus on vehicles was too overemphasized for my liking.

Grabs you by the funny bone and tender parts and body slams your senses right from the start, and if you just don't love that little guy the first time you lay eyes on him, you're just too jaded.

The super high learning cure will absolutely knock quite a few gamers out of their seats, again, especially if they try to jump into things like they’re playing "Starcraft" for the 2000th time.

You’ll get all the thrills of those other zombie killing games without the stupid puzzles, annoying characters and confusing plot elements, the multiplayer is innovative and addictive and hell, this is the only legal way to spread an infection that won’t get you quarantined or run out of town or a rail.

One of the top sleeper hits of the entire year. This game is so finely constructed, minus the lackluster story, voice acting and frame rates quirks, that it really shouldn’t even be a sleeper.

Everything in Ties That Bind creates a solid experience that still scares the ever-loving crap s*** out of us all in the office.

The graphics really make the high speed races seem incredibly fast and besides the few hiccups I ran across, they even hold up in online mode as well.

The game looks fantastic, controls like a dream and is brilliantly paced, elements that add up to a "must buy" in my book.

Put a few hours into this and you’ll be dreaming of diminutive dragons and blissfully bursting bubbles when you finally get some sleep.

This title brings back all the memories of Marble Madness, but with countless alterations and improvements. There are a few things I wish could be improved, such as the camera and music, but these shouldn’t prevent you from spending the $10 for all the content this game provides.

I can't believe that Phantom Dust retails for only twenty bucks. Considering all it packs in and the workout your brain and fingers get, this is one of the best values in gaming this year, hands down.

Everything in Ties That Bind creates a solid experience that still scares the ever-loving crap s*** out of us all in the office.

Rags to Riches mode is a solid, funny "reality" show feature in Ballers, and it's a great combo of simulation and sports action elements that just adds more to the package.

Even with the redundant missions and laughable voice-overs, the good easily out weighs the bad and after playing Spider-Man 2 rigorously for three days straight, with only about two hours sleep in between, I'd have to say it's the best superhero game I've ever played.

Grabs you by the funny bone and tender parts and body slams your senses right from the start, and if you just don't love that little guy the first time you lay eyes on him, you're just too jaded.

This is one huge game, and I’m still discovering people and places some 80+ hours in...Simply put, what makes Final Fantasy XI so great is that it allows you to do almost anything you’ve wanted to do in a FF game and then some.
