If you're a fan of the series this is a must-have, but it's enough of a niche genre that you probably already know if you want it. I can't imagine many people on the fence on this one.

Party Animals gets a little out of control with its shortcomings, but that doesn't keep it from being entertaining for the little ones. A great presentation and some quirky moments make it charming for children.

This is a good game for Spider-man fans, and although it would infuriate some players for being far too simple of a game. For others it's campy and simple nature can be charming.

While it doesn’t have the same kind of fast-paced fun as Meteos or Planet Puzzle League, Prism: Light the Way still has some unique gameplay that will appeal to puzzle fans looking for a more slow-paced game of logic and spatial reasoning. At least, so long as they don’t mind the cutesy character designs and hideously saccharine music.

It may not be my first pick for a puzzle game to play on the DS, but Super Collapse! 3 gives players a healthy variety of game modes and options to the point where the wealth of variety makes up for an otherwise mediocre core game.

Cars: Mater-National is a decent racing game that will probably satisfy fans of the film, but it’s also flawed in numerous ways that make it difficult to recommend over the countless better racers out there.

It looks good, it's fun to play and thee's a lot to do around the farm. Young gamers who enjoyed the movie will find a lot to enjoy here.

It's a pretty good game, especially for a movie license. Young gamers will love it.

A game whose defining gameplay mechanic is terribly broken, and whose remaining gameplay mechanics fail to make for a worthwhile game. Probably worth checking out if you're a fan of the film, but otherwise, don't bother.

Torino 2006 for the Xbox also suffers from the same stale one button simplicity of the PS2 version.

It's almost a no-brainer that kids who enjoy the movie will enjoy the game. It does a great job capturing the feel and the look.

Older gamers will be able to figure their way around the harder boss battles if they are so inclined while the younger ones may get frustrated and move on.

Crusty Demons isn't going to be the highlight of anyone's collection, but for fans of extreme sports games, it's worth playing, and those amongst you that enjoy watching people getting hurt doing dumb tricks (you know who you are) will likely get a kick out of it too.

Get more friends, get more controllers, get Red Hot Rumble. In that order only.

If you need a break from "Mario Party," this is a good place to start.

Older gamers will be able to figure their way around the harder boss battles if they are so inclined while the younger ones may get frustrated and move on.

A good pick for kids that love Nickelodeon; of course, expect to buy another game shortly after gifting due to the unimpressive length. At least it looks good and is a bit of fun.

In fact, with the frustratingly confusing new progression system, this game is a lot less satisfying, even for those who only want to see more boobies.

Get the PS2 version of this collection. Do not get this version.

And, as long as you like a game of pretty chess against a computer or a friend that’s in the same room, this will do the trick. But if you want a teacher, a fantastical remake, a door to competition online or anything resembling comprehensive, this game will let you down.

The new control scheme makes SvR 2007 much less of a button-masher as much of the grappling is now mapped to the right analog stick, although sometimes a combo button is needed for certain grapple follow-ups.

What’s more, the swearing is simply over the top. If you want to make a gritty crime drama, a few F-bombs here and there are expected, but this is just f***ing ridiculous.

Really just more of the same. While it isn’t totally lame, it does have a number of flaws that make it inferior to other hack and slash titles; in short, it’s a whole lot of action you’ve already seen.

This series holds some promise, as long as the issues with fielding are fixed by next years release (and we all know that if this sells more than four copies 2k will update the roster for next year) it'll be a great game. For now this is a quick game with friends only.

Kursk is fine, but not stellar. If you are looking for more tanks and huge... slow levels this is probably for you. But I would probably avoid it.

The game does have some endearing visuals that manage to put a funny spin on rather grim material.

Better than Finest Hour, but still not where it needs to be.

True Swing Golf DS has a great control scheme... and nothing else to recommend it.

Low-tech and lacking in ambition that would make the game stand out from other aerial combat titles, Snoopy vs. the Red Baron is still entertaining, in spite of awkward controls that make the game harder to control than it ought to be.

At the core of this mess is a title that was once one of the best games on the GameCube, but it has since grown stale with age, has lost the perfect controls that helped to define it, and traded in elements of the presentation that worked for others that only make the game worse.

Personally, I think 80 Days would have benefited from an extended beta-testing period. This would have definitely made them change the save system, and it would have probably removed most of the bugs too.

You get a fairly standard sports game that doesnt harken to one person or another, its just the sports. Really at this price, its a good deal for the kids.

You don't have to have watched every episode of each series in order to get enjoyment out of Star Trek: Legacy. If you're looking for a more action oriented game, this isn't it.

Take a look up yonder and read over the tracklist to see if it suits you, because it was seriously lacking for both me and Lisa.

The battle system had some potential, but is hampered by technical issues.

Ice Age 2: The Meltdown ought to be called Scrat’s Adventure, since Manfred, Sid and Diego make only token appearances.

Another problem with the game is horrid AI.

Not a bad game, it just doesn't feel "done" at this point, as if certain things were stripped away because they weren't working instead of being fixed for the game's release.

If you have fond memories of this game, and don’t mind the 360’s crappy D-pad, go for it, I guess. Everyone else, you’re better off getting Street Fighter II or, better yet, the latest Mortal Kombat game when it comes out.

A fun, if limited, game. Escape from Paradise City offers up something interesting for the role-playing gamer looking for a title that is a little bit different.

Dungeon Maker: Hunting Grounds is the equivalent of light summer reading; fun and frothy, but not overly involving, slow or ponderous.

Tony Hawk’s Proving Ground adds all kinds of new features, but it also adds all kinds of new problems. And yet for everything new they’ve absent-mindedly tossed in here, I’d really rather just go back and play Tony Hawk 4.

Folklore is a tale best left to the mists of time.

This isn’t an exceptionally bad game, but it is an extremely mediocre one. The movie is a must-see, but unless you’re a huge fan of the film (or desperate for an Xbox 360 platformer), you should stay away from this one.

This isn’t an exceptionally bad game, but it is an extremely mediocre one. The movie is a must-see, but unless you’re a huge fan of the film, you should stay away from this one.

Rent it for some easy gamerpoints.

Only those obsessed with SNK games, or 2D fighters in general, will be interested.

Gun is intense and packed with violence and action, but it is extremely brief and tends to overdose on the M-rated excesses.

Transformers seems like it was built by a machine to a factory spec – all the parts are here that should, in theory, form an outstanding game. But it’s like no human actually gave it a test-drive to see if it was actually fun.

If you're looking for a PSone/early PS2-quality turn-based RPG on PSP... keep on looking.

Eragon is still an experience better read than played… but this one’s possibly the most playable of the lot.

It takes something special for a game to stand out from the group, and sadly Legion Arena fails to do this.

Darwinia is certainly “unique” and “original”. It’s a shame it’s not very “fun”.

This is not a game, but it's also not the audiovisual tool Nintendo would like you to think it is. It's a toy, and it won't hold your attention for too long.

Get this game if you’ve got a 360 and friends to play against, you’ll have a blast.

Where the game has been severely improved over its last title on the Xbox, on a next-generation system, the hardware is not effectively utilized to make this game a viable choice over its cheaper Xbox cousin.

It lacks replay value, but forms a good matched set with Brain Age.

It all comes down to how much you liked Final Fantasy VII and how badly you want to see the story continue. Fans can easily overlook the flaws, non-fans can find more robust 3rd-person shooters out there.

Yes, it's fun, but nothing really new enough to warrant a recommendation. Die-hard Battlefield fans will see plenty of value, all others should stick with what they already have.

Both more of the same and a little less. The challenges don’t hold their appeal for long and a lot of the problems from the first game have reappeared in this one, but anyone looking for a racing game that rewards you for knocking over fences and road signs will be hard pressed to find better.

A polished game that just isn’t that exciting. Series fans will appreciate what it has to offer, but those coming in for the first time may find the experience underwhelming.

If you’re a PSP owner without a GBA or DS, you need to face the facts – you’re just depriving yourself a lot of fun by not owning one of Nintendo’s handhelds. Take the money you were going to spend on this game and put it towards one of those systems and a copy of Wario Ware.

Call of Duty 3 on Wii somehow slipped through the development cracks. Awkward controls, less impressive visuals, and a total lack of multiplayer make it less desirable than its counterparts on PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360.

The control just really brings it down. Offering some level of sensitivity control would have been nice. Offering support for using the nunchuk/classic controller/GC controller for more classic style of TH control would have been awesome.

The framerate is horribly inconsistent and random glitches in character models mar the visuals.

It's slow paced and you'll get tired of hearing the same jokes and trash-talk over and over again, but serious poker fanatics will enjoy the big-name players and casual players will enjoy the feel of playing a game with their buddies.

We don’t get many dating games here in the states, which makes Brooktown High somewhat unique. Unfortunately, the slow pace and lack of opportunity to actually socialize with the other students makes this a game that does little to capitalize on that fact.

If you aren't easily offended and you're looking for a good brawler, God Hand is worth a try.

The Sopranos: Road to Respect could have been one of the best games this year. It was very engaging, but just when it seems to hit it’s stride, you run out of game.

If you're looking for a racing game where robots punch each other you might be hard pressed to do better. There are better looking and more detailed mech sims, but the fast pace and fun might win you over.

Flaws and all this is a great game for the preteen audience. It does bear on the repetitive side, but in light of more recent licensed game, at least there is more than two hours of game.

Shadowrun doesn’t just trample on the memories of the classic RPGs many people fondly remember. It’s a sham and a rip-off, especially on the Xbox 360. If you absolutely must buy this game, buy it on the PC. Better yet, don’t buy it at all, at least not until it hits the bargain bin.

They're great buys for the children in your life, but the older Spongebob fan will find nothing of note here.

Somewhat engaging. Numerous shortcomings prevent it from being widely recommendable, but for a quick action fix Star Wars: Lethal Alliance will get the job done.

Eragon is an experience better read than played, but the PSP version has enough online/WiFi modes to almost be worth owning!

A decent handheld reduction of the main series with little new to offer in its short campaign and limited multiplayer.

Out of the two Tom Clancy games for the PS3 I'd take a look at Rainbow Six first, but both are impressive shooters for all of your military needs.

It's not exactly the new face of tactics RPGs, but as a modern face lift on a classic it's worth a second look.

The whole “two hands” thing may have been a good idea, but it’s poorly executed, as with the rest of the Wii controls. As for the rest of the game, it fails to make a significant improvement over Spider-Man 2.

As combat flight sims go, this one is different enough for a test flight for those interested.

Mad Tracks makes for a nice distraction, but it’s doubtful that you’ll want to play this for more than ten minutes at a time.

Overall fans of the original will be satiated with another entry in the series, but this game just feels really dated.

This isn’t an exceptionally bad game, but it is an extremely mediocre one. The movie is a must-see, but unless you’re a huge fan of the film (or desperate for a PSP platformer), you should stay away from this one.

Medal of Honor: Heroes 2 is just too little, too late, and released at the worst time imaginable. It is a game that was quite frankly doomed to be forgotten.

If we’re lucky, the game’s designers will take the lessons learned while creating this game and go on to make something truly great with them. Unfortunately, the flaws that impede the main game and two minigames here rob all three of their potential, leaving us with a title that, quite simply, isn’t fun.

This game is a new twist on baseball. Neat in theory, but I'm not sure that cosmetic or game play changes will do much for a genre that is so well established.

Front Mission makes for a somewhat mediocre SRPG when put up against other titles on the market. The battles don’t require too much thought, and as a result the game gets repetitious very quickly.

With some better minigames, and a structure that did more to encourage players to progress, this could have been a spectacular sim. But the minigames don’t tie in well with the rest of the game, and they’re so few in number that you’ll get bored far too quickly to appreciate the game’s many beautiful character models for the various animals.

Ultimate Masters is ultimately far short of a masterpiece. It's Total Eyestrain Theatre.

They're great buys for the children in your life, but the older Spongebob fan will find nothing of note here.

World Racing 2 is not a horrible game, and there are actually some nice features here, but it's still not worth the $20 price tag.

Both more of the same and a little less. The challenges don't hold their appeal for long and a lot of the problems from the first game have reappeared in this one, but anyone looking for a racing game that rewards you for knocking over fences and road signs will be hard pressed to find better.

If you're a fan of hack-n-slash button-mashing in your RPGs, Shining Force Neo offers a load of challenge and a long campaign.

Over the Hedge is a game that doesn’t add anything new to its genre or to the movie it came from originally, but makes for a decent tie-in.

Rule of Rose wants to be the next Silent Hill, but for now it's only achieving Relatively Quiet Hill status.

If you’ve never played The Sims 2 before, this is the latest console version and the one you should use. For anyone else, it’s simply not enough new content to merit a full-priced purchase.

A somewhat okay RPG with pretty characters and some all right game play, but far too tedious for the average gamer.

Eragon is an experience better read than played!

It all just seems like a misguided mixture of various RTS games. There’s a dash of Age of Empires, a shake of Civilisation and a spoonful of Rise of Nations; there just isn’t enough there to make Empire Earth II: Art of Supremacy an original game in its own right.

A Civilization-branded carbon copy of other games in the city building genre, CivCity: Rome has a few too many flaws to justify purchase over its competition.

Shadowgrounds is a pure top-down shooter that just doesn’t seem to come together to achieve the effects it was going for. Spooky games are spookier in first-person than they are top-down, so Shadowgrounds isn’t spooky.

Pick up a different arcade collection. Unless you're really interested in some of the lesser known (for a reason) titles, such as Circus Charlie and Pooyan, you can get the other marquee games elsewhere.

Despite a nice-looking game with well-done subplots for minor characters, the game is fundamentally flawed.

The only multiplayer is a two-player split screen. Four players is too much apparently and going online is out of the question. Not a great system seller in this regard.

Family Guy feels divorced from the quality of its TV show inspiration; although funny, the game play is shallow and poorly realized. Next!

Family Guy feels divorced from the quality of its TV show inspiration; although funny, the game play is shallow and poorly realized. Next!

Get a better game such as "Guitar Hero" or "Taiko Drum Master."

Even though the game has the spirit of previous Splinter Cell titles, not to mention the exact missions, it's without innovation and comes off as a stale installment in an otherwise fantastic series.

Dance Factory has some great ideas that could lead to some really great gameplay... eventually.

Inspired from the somewhat average Mortal Kombat: Deception on PlayStation 2, this reduced version features too many omissions to be as enjoyable.

X-Men fans would do better to stick with the "Legends" games. If you absolutely need some mutants on the go, however, you could certainly do worse.

It's a decent FPS, with great (for the system) graphics and audio, and makes for a decently enjoyable run, although it's only worth making the run once. Rent it first.

Worth a rental for those in need of an action fix or someone with a short attention span.

If you have a PS3 and want this kind of experience, get "Motorstorm."

It's a first step towards a great game, but it's not that game just yet.

Not as fun as a genuine Starfox, but it's a fair offering for his first handheld adventure.

A game pretty blatantly for fans of the show, but non-fans might find plenty here to like. It’s little more than Grand Battle with a single-player mode attached, but it’s your best chance to fight superpowered pirates this year.

It's a great game for cruising, and if you're looking for something to mellow out with after a hard day it's a great game. Hardcore race fans will want to look to other titles.

A brawler with good ideas looking for a slightly forgiving player to see the potential in there.

If you got Texas Hold 'Em for free, congratulations! Enjoy! If not, the flawed, featureless experience it presents simply isn't worth the price unless you're a serious fan of Texas Hold 'Em.

If you’re really dying for a great tennis game on your PC, import the European release of "Virtua Tennis 3." The PC version of Top Spin 2 is a long-overdue and shoddy port of an already imperfect game.

While its predecessor may have made for a decent Xbox launch title, Fuzion Frenzy 2 is really an unremarkable party game for this day in age, with numerous problems on top of it all.

This is a great concept that fell short. If you want an easy game that can steal a few hours you've found it.

If you've already played the Xbox version there is absolutely no reason to play this version other than to add gamerpoints to your pile.

If you were a big fan of Rampage and have been thinking "I'd like this more if I could physically punch instead of button mash!", then you're pretty much the target audience.

While far from a terrible game, Platypus lacks enough variety and challenge to make it worth it even to the most casual gamer or fan of the side-scrolling genre. It's a game best enjoyed in the bargain bin.

It's a solid game for baseball junkies, but it's paced like...well, a baseball game. You've got to be into it to get anything out of it.

Another case of too much for too little. The extremely simple gameplay and unimpressive graphics just don’t justify a $30 price tag, and arguably wouldn’t even justify even a $20 or $15 price tag.

The Wii lends itself to the sword fighting very well, but it may be little more than novelty for most people. There is a lot of fan service here, but the title doesn't stand well on its own.

If you don't have Virtua Tennis, that's the tennis game to get. If you have Virtua Tenis and you absolutely must play Pac-Man Tenis, I guess this is the game for you.

A weak handheld title, that doesn't give any reason to run out and get it. This is a passable title, but barely. If you have every other action title mastered, and a long flight then I'd recommend it.

It’s a shame that it’s so boring to play that putting up with the game just for its presentation seems like walkin’ the plank because you wants to get to heaven.

The game seems to be designed to be rented rather than purchased, as it is not only boring, but short as well. Have a few friends over and knock this one out in an evening. Then return it and never think about it again.

It's unbalanced, oddly paced and blocky...but there's no denying that a certain charm persists beneath it all, and I found myself playing long after I had enough to review it.

A generic platformer with a movie license slapped on it, this better than most but a tiger cannot be expected to change its stripes.

Medal of Honor: Heroes 2 is just too little, too late, and released at the worst time imaginable. It is a game that was quite frankly doomed to be forgotten.

NHL 2K7 is cheaper and more fun to play than NHL 2K8. Rush out to the discount bin and get yours now!

Syphon Filter: Dark Mirror was made for the PSP, and it is there that it succeeds. In trying to take the game and slap it onto the PS2, they've thrown away or lost everything that made it special to begin with, and are actually trying to charge $20 more for it. Where I come from, that's what we call a "rip-off."

PAIN would be a great game if it were actually a game. Instead, it’s like a brief demo that you’re being charged $10 to play.

The combination of an RPG and a side-scrolling shooter isn't a bad one, but constantly switching between them so constantly makes for too much of a jarring experience.

For anyone who is a sim junkie, this is worth checking out.

This title seems to bluntly and directly prey on young girls' naiveté and lack of experience… and their obsession with hair…

All told, it would be highly recommended at half the price. As it is, $20 is too much for such a simple game. It's fun to be sure, at least in short bursts to "clear the palate" of puzzle games, but it doesn't have what it takes to be something that will last long into the future.

These licensed glut the GBA library and this title doesn't do much to rise above the pack.

If you're looking for a shooter on the Xbox, there are countless others that are more involving than this one. The gameplay in Painkillers: Hell Wars has been out of style for a decade.

It's not that the game is very bad, it's that the game doesn't ever try to be very good.

There are better driving games, certainly, but if you absolutely must have a driving game based on this movie, this is pretty much your only choice.

Godfather: Mob Wars is the game Francis Ford Coppala should have been complaining about.

All-Pro is still playing at a collegiate level; while not bad in multiplayer online, there’s simply no depth for the single player who is looking to carry a franchise through to greatness over several seasons; that feature’s just completely MIA.

Scratches would have been a runaway hit … 10 years ago. Today? It’s just fairly tedious. This one’s only for die-hard point-and-click fans; others will be bored stiff.

The Rainbow Six series has taken a major step back, and is nowhere near as good as it used to be. Let’s just hope Red Storm goes back to basics in the next outing, and we forget this rather unfortunate incident.

Remember how good Spider-Man 2 was? Hang onto that feeling by not playing this game.

They should perhaps forget about the half-hearted measures and just stop putting out these cosmetically-enhanced, half-effort retreads and forge ahead with something new already. Like Parasite Eve 3!

It's not a bad PSP game of Poker. It's just not that good either.

As it stands, this game is a collection of mediocre and fairly short minigames, failing to offer a viable reason to partake in its offerings.

It's a decent game, even if you'll have a sense of déjà vu the entire time. For hardcore SpongeBob fans only.

The potential was there, and it could have done so much more.

If you want to play the newest Splinter Cell game, please, find another platform to play it on. Your mileage may vary, but this game just doesn't seem to work all that well. Only buy this if the multiplayer is your main reason, or possibly only reason for playing.

A solid gameplay mechanic in search of a home.

One of those games that lacks any flavor (or fun), it's sort of the stale saltine cracker of DS games.

Had there been a shorter time limit imposed on many of the games, or some sense of progression where different jobs kept coming then WTF would have been easy to recommend. As it is, only those that really enjoy the weird sense of humor that comes out of Japan will “get” the game and want to continue playing it for longer than it takes to get 8 mushrooms across the street.

This may be one of the few games with nearly identical gameplay as its GBA cousin. It won't knock your socks off, but kids who are nuts about the movie might get a kick out of it.

Unlike the PlayStation Portable version which manages to be entertaining despite its flaws, Star Wars: Lethal Alliance on Nintendo DS is as laughable as it is frustrating.

In the final analysis, however entertaining the movie might be, Eragon is an experience that’s better to read than it is to play.

In the final analysis, however entertaining the movie might be, Eragon is an experience that’s better to read than it is to play.

Only for long time Sega addicts. If Shining Force was you first RPG (mine was "Shining in the Darkness") there may be something for you here. With a huge RPG library on the PS2, there is no reason to play this very bland game.

There's some great action in here, but everything surrounding it just fails to live up to the giants of this genre.

Where before there was too little, here there is not enough worth getting involved with. The home console installments are usually worth your time, but Namco-Bandai has yet to make a handheld Naruto worth it.

This franchise is quickly heading for the bottom. This is one of the few second installment to expand on the original in more than just character selection. Naruto: Uzumaki Chronicles 2 is for serious fans only.

This is essentially just a side quest in the series, and it feels like it cannot stand on its own. There needs to be much more polish on a game than developers put in.

You've seen this before and you will see it again. Just wait until the next big kids movie comes out.

You've seen this before and you will see it again. Just wait until the next big kids movie comes out.

I guess Crime Stories is good for an hour or so of play, but I guarantee if you play for much longer if the disjointed dialogue doesn’t get you, the poor translation will.

A better storyline and characters actually make Aedis Eclipse more tragic than it is more appealing; the game underlying this improvement is still as problematic, sluggish and poorly designed as the original title.

Metal Saga feels phoned in; Atlus' other vehicle-based RPG, Steambot Chronicles, is a better choice in every way possible.

A complete disappointment. Far from fun, it holds you hand through level after level of bland action platform gameplay that makes you wish you could escape from this digital nightmare.

Family Guy feels divorced from the quality of its TV show inspiration; although funny, the game play is shallow and poorly realized... even more notably on PSP. Next!

War has rarely been this uninspiring and run-of-the-mill.

If you like biting your controller and being frustrated at a game that freezes after you've failed to save it for 8 missions, it's for you.

It just doesn't manage to appeal to either the hardcore sports gamer, but fans of And 1 will get a kick out of playing with their favorite stars. Anyone else might be better off holding out for a better game.

It's like Vegas without the money and excitement and shiny things.

Superman Returns from EA on 360 is much better than "Superman" from Titus on N64. That’s not setting the bar very high, though. At best, it’s average.

It’s a collection of decent puzzles surrounded by a bad movie tie-in.

Most of the game will be spent staring at constant loading screens, 30 second races where you either win or lose by a huge margin, or cursing your team leader for constantly starting a turf war when you want to go back to your garage and update your car.

Repeating the same button-mashing gameplay of old and offering just about no other gametypes beyond ad hoc multiplayer, Samurai Warriors: State of War offers nothing new to the player to warrant any amount of time with the title.

Harvest Moon DS feels like an incomplete game. The recycled sprites, scattershot nature of the town and integration of the old game’s cast and town make it feel like an expansion pack at best, or just a half-hearted sequel.

The over the top acting would have been a welcome release, but the poor sound and graphical presentation just put a bullet in it.

Dust Strikers could’ve been a fun game, but the lack of depth and limited replay value keep it from being a must-own.

While World Championship Poker featuring Howard Lederer: All In for 360 isn’t the worst poker game ever made, it’s in the running.

I feel bad giving this game a terrible rating, because it wasn't terrible. It just wasn't really that good, either. If you're a big fan of the movie, it might, maybe, be worth a look, but you'd probably be better served by a full console version.

A short and forgettable game.

What starts off as a good old' fashioned beat 'em up title quickly becomes an exercise in tedium.

Kids these days... for all the pretty graphics this game offers, it just doesn’t hold a candle to my good old Battlezone game from back in the day, when it comes to gameplay.

Tomb Raider Legend DS can be fun at times, but it's a bit difficult to get past the low graphical quality. It also requires a lot of patience and a good eye to continue forward.

It's free, so you're getting what you pay for. Yes, it can be fun, but it should have been a lot better.

Why Hudson Soft and Konami decided to make a sequel to Rengoku is puzzling. Why they decided to make it just like the original, albeit a little better, is mind-boggling.

It looks nice, and the plot is well developed, but they seem to forget games have to be fun to play.

Far from fun, it holds you hand through level after level of bland action platform gameplay that makes you wish you could escape from this digital nightmare.

Die-hard fans of the show may enjoy this, but only on a home console.

Even if you love the Ford license, this game will just be a waste of not only your money, but your time as well.

Hardly entertaining, the game features presentation problems and boring play that isn’t worth the effort. Read the book instead.

The only thing worse than playing Warhammer: Battle for Atluma would be having paid to play it. Numerous issues including presentation, short length, and rather complex gameplay mechanics make it hard to recommend this game.

Big Bumpin’ is probably the most successful of the three Burger King games, if only because it aims so very low.

Despite hinting at an interesting experience, Valhalla Knights squanders its potential with a lack of style and unfortunately compelling substance.

This game could have been so much more. The skeleton of a great game is here, but nothing comes together.

Poor execution dystroyed this game, with a little polish and better design work this could have been a really fun game.

I'd recommend keeping your copy of NHL 2K7 and pretending this year's version never actually came out. Like an NHL videogamers lockout or something.
