Panzer Dragoon Orta (Platinum Collection)
Pretty tough, but different than the flood of FPS games around.
Let me start out by saying I got this game used for $6.99 so even though I wouldn't say its an amazing game, its still not a bad purchase. The graphics were amazing when the game came out, and I'd say they still hold up,... Read Full Review

Percussion Master is by far the most fun I've had in an arcade in a long time.
I originally saw Percussion Master being played in the arcade scene of Lost In Translation and grew interested in playing it. Eventually I got my chance at the Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk. I had no expectations for the ga... Read Full Review

Super Mario Galaxy
An absolutely stunning game that all should enjoy.
I grew up with Mario. I played all the greats, Super Mario Bros., Super Mario Bros. 3, Super Mario World 1/2, and of course, Super Mario 64. I also played the somewhat of a letdown, Super Mario Sunshine. I'm happy and pr... Read Full Review

Magic: The Gathering - Battlegrounds
If you're a fan of the card game, STAY AWAY FROM THIS GAME!!!
Let me start off by saying that this game has almost nothing to do with the card game except for the basics you would assume it would need as it is a licensed game and all. The graphics aren't bad, tolerable I guess. The... Read Full Review

Condemned: Criminal Origins
A little on the short side, but still worth the money, or at least a rental if you're cheap.
This game, is one of those games, that reminds me why I still play video games. The graphics may seem outdated to elitists but I find them to be great. The sound effects are spot on, it could be something falling over ma... Read Full Review

The Orange Box
Several amazing games at an amazing price. The most bang for your buck, no question.
You must buy this game, plain and simple. Don't rent it, go buy it, it has so much game play and replayability that is worth buying even to the most frugal of people. Lets start with the obvious, half life 2. This is one... Read Full Review

Uncharted: Drake's Fortune
A very fun adventure while it lasts.
There has been much debate over the graphics and overall quality of Uncharted since it came out a while back. Lucky for all of you, now I can throw my view into the mix and prove to myself yet again, that no one cares. ... Read Full Review

Team Fortress 2
New and refreshing!
This is one of those rare treats that comes out every so often. It's quite an amazing game and I'm really glad that it has caught as much attention as it has, because it deserves it. The graphics are great. There's so... Read Full Review

Resident Evil
Extremely archaic gameplay ruins a potentially awesome game.
Resident Evil fans will hate me for this review, but I don't mind. I will admit to preferring Silent Hill, but I still loved Resident Evil 4. Hopefully this gives you perspective on how I look at this remake of Resident ... Read Full Review

Fable II
An incredible game, it more than lives up to the hype.
I loved the first Fable, but was slightly let down by it and learned that Peter Moleneux sometimes just liked to talk. So this time around I was cautiously hopeful that the game would deliver. It has turned out to be one... Read Full Review

Assassin's Creed
Read my point of view inside.
This game had so much promise, and I suppose it still does if you consider the sequel that I am sure is coming. The graphics are fantastic, although there is some pop in. There is a ton of detail in the textures and ligh... Read Full Review

Diablo
This game has so much going for it, but suffers from one major flaw.
Well, some of you may be wondering why I have given this an 8.0 when almost everyone else has given it 9.0-10. There are many things that would make this game superb but one thing that qualifies in my opinion as merely f... Read Full Review

Gears of War 2
A solid sequel with some very appreciated changes, but still just doesn't quite make the AAA cut.
The original Gears of War made quite splash when it first came out, but it disappointed me a little. The sequel has received just as much, if not more hyped than the original. Did the final product meet the hype? Gear... Read Full Review

Call of Duty: World at War
Improves on everything Call of Duty 4 set forth and then some.
Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare was, and still is, revered by many. When it was announced that Call of Duty 5, rather World At War, was not only being developed by Treyarch rather than Infinity Ward but also going back to... Read Full Review

Guitar Hero World Tour
A great first attempt at bringing the full band experience to the Guitar Hero series.
Rock Band came out and changed the world of music/rythm games by allowing people to play drums and vocals on top of the original guitar and bass. Of course Guitar Hero had to respond by following Rock Band's footsteps or... Read Full Review

Sonic Adventure DX: Director's Cut
I had a ton of fun with this.
I was so surprised with this game because it got such a low score here but I have to say that I had a lot of fun with it. The graphics aren't amazing, but they aren't bad either. In fact, they are rather colorful which i... Read Full Review

Rock Band
A commendable attempt to get a full band party game going, but it just doesn't have the polish that Guitar Hero does.
I have not played Rock Band on the other consoles and I haven't played Rock Band 2 at all. I have played Guitar Hero II, Guitar Hero III, and Guitar hero Hero: World Tour and those are what I will be comparing this game ... Read Full Review

Call of Duty 2
Absolutely awesome. A must have FPS and an absolute thrill ride.
All I have to say is wow. This game really impresses. The graphics are top notch as well as the sound effects. The fire fights are a pure adrenaline rush, with dirt flying everywhere, bullets zooming over your head, and ... Read Full Review

Forza Motorsport 2
How did Microsoft's hope for defeating Gran Turismo fair? Look inside.
Well, here it goes. This was an overall disappointment considering the original. I think they actually may have gone backwards, if that even makes any sense. Ok, lets get down to the positives and negatives. The graphics... Read Full Review

Forza Motorsport
A definite contender against Gran Turismo.
This game surprised me in how good it is, especially considering its the first in the series. It has a lot of cars, and some brands that Gran Turismo couldn't get its hands on. For some reason the cars look strange at fi... Read Full Review

The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion
Its no Morrowind, but still fun if you give it time.
Lets get this out of the way, if you're a hardcore RPG gamer Morrowind is better, for everyone else, this game is equal to, if not better than Morrowind. Bethesda made some good improvements this time around, but they al... Read Full Review

Grand Theft Auto: Vice City
A better prequel than you could have hoped for.
This was way better than what I was anticipating. The story is great, I mean sure it pretty much a blatant ripoff of Scarface, but in a way that just makes it cooler. There are now motorcycles that you can ride, and more... Read Full Review

Gran Turismo 3 A-spec (Platinum)

Animal Crossing: Wild World
A must have if you own a DS.
This game will at least be a contender for the most fun you have had on the DS. The graphics are great for a hand-held game, and possibly the best on the DS. They've made some subtle changes from the original that you wi... Read Full Review

Fallout 3
An amazing adventure that any gamer should enjoy.
Let me start off with a disclaimer of sorts. I never played Fallout 1 & 2, and I greatly enjoyed Oblivion. So if you're an old-school WRPG purist you may as well stop reading here. I also got this game for free. No, I di... Read Full Review

Animal Crossing
What a lot of games should aspire to be.
This is an example of a game returning to what gaming used to be before the fanboys went completely nuts, before everything was about graphics and frame rate, and before developers ran out of originality. This game is ab... Read Full Review

World of Warcraft: Wrath of the Lich King
An awesome expansion, and worthy of the Warcraft name.
To me, Burning Crusade was a disappointment. It was a solid expansion with some appreciated new features, but it wasn't exactly what I was hoping for. Wrath of the Lich King turned out to be just what I needed in an expa... Read Full Review

Grand Theft Auto III
One of the most fun games I have ever played.

A unique art syle, crazy storyline, and some interesting humor don't make up for rudimentry and boring game-play.

God of War II
Good game, but lacking many details.

Infinite Undiscovery
An incredibly disappointing, highly generic mess of a JRPG.

Complete letdown considering how great the original was. Its become a monotonous gear race.

More of a side step than a step forward for the series.

Half-Life 2
A very disappointing port of a great game.
The Xbox can't handle Half-Life 2 plain and simple. That is the source of our problems here. The graphics aren't as good as they are on the PC. They look fuzzy, and at times some areas of the game look almost unfinished.... Read Full Review
