Bullet Witch

Crackdown

WWE SmackDown vs. Raw 2007

X-Men: The Official Game

F.E.A.R.

Marvel: Ultimate Alliance

A Marvelous Title, well worth the terrible pun

As a fan of the PS2 Baldur's Gate variations, the X-Men Legends titles, and Diablo for the PC, I can truly appreciate a hack-and-slash. M: UA is the best hack-and-slasher I've played in a while. The graphics are outst... Read Full Review

Bullet Witch

Incredible Mediocrity

3rd person shooters have the ability to be truly special games. They can produce some of the most dramatically fun titles in gaming. Bullet Witch, alas, does not meet the standard. It is, in every sense of the word... Read Full Review

Riot Act

The Next Level of Open-World Gaming

When a company attaches the ability to play one of their most eagerly-anticipated titles to a game, it is common knowledge that the game the demo is attached to is not good. Crackdown sets that common knowledge on its... Read Full Review

Saints Row

Grand Theft Auto: Stilwater

Yes, this game is a TOTAL rip-off of Grand Theft Auto. Couldn't be more of a rip-off without actually being made by Rockstar. But that doesn't mean the game is not a fun game because it very much is enjoyable. You are... Read Full Review

The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion

The Best Game In History

I have, admittedly, not played prior Elder Scrolls titles (such as Morrowind) because they looked boring to me. So, I came into this without any pre-conceived notions as to how this game should be. I was, to be genero... Read Full Review

Dead Rising

Not as Good as Promised

I know, Dead Rising is one of the "killer apps" for the XBox 360. And there is a lot of good in the title. But the title has some HUGE problems that simply cannot be overlooked. The story is decent horror mo... Read Full Review

Viva Pinata

The Most Unexpected Experience

When I purchased this, I figured it'd be a fun and cute diversion. What I got, instead, was one of the most addictive interactive pieces of entertainment I've ever experienced. The TV show may well be designed for chi... Read Full Review

Genji: Days of the Blade

The PS2 version is better

Yup, that is the tragic reality here. The PS2 original is a better title. True, I DO think that the entire line of titles is more than a little bit of a rip-off of better titles (*cough*Onimusha), but the first one was a... Read Full Review

Enchanted Arms

Not the Best RPG On the Market

Enchanted Arms is the first "Japanese-style" RPG for the XBox 360 and a lot of good ideas are present, but they never really seem to fully gel. OK, in a nutshell, you are a young, upstart metrosexual student... Read Full Review

Resistance: Fall of Man

The only reason to even own the PS3. Not that it is high praise or anything.

Resistance: Fall of Man is the newest offering from Insomniac games, the company behind the stellar Ratchet and Clank titles. And while this game is a good FPS, it is not close to being the company's best offering. True,... Read Full Review

WWE SmackDown vs. Raw 2007

A Little Better than a John Cena Match

As somebody who has been a fan of wrestling games historically, the verdict of WWF/E titles on the XBox has been depressingly terrible. The RAW titles were abysmal and WrestleMania 21, alas, was even worse. The controls ... Read Full Review

Call of Duty 3

Pretty Much the Same Game as Call of Duty 2

CoD 3 decides to forego any of the whole "let's improve over the last title" and decided to go with more of the same. There are some cosmetic changes (though, admittedly, cooking grenades is pretty darned cool)... Read Full Review

Sonic the Hedgehog

Well, It's Getting Better

I have wanted to mourn Sonic's recent titles. Ever since the Dreamcast, Sonic has had a pretty rough couple of titles. Sonic Heroes was pretty bad. Sonic Riders was a little better, but man, it was not good. Shadow made ... Read Full Review

X-Men: The Official Game

Why Did Marvel Approve This Monstrosity?

I used to respect Marvel for taking better care of their lucrative franchises than their brethren at DC Comics. This game makes me question that. Heavily. Based on the worst of the X-Men movies, this is one of the ... Read Full Review

Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Vegas

The First Rainbow Six game I Ever Liked

Historically, I've hated the Rainbow Six titles. They seemed to be overly reliant on you baby-sitting your squadmates and the gameplay just seemed to be borderline tedious. Vegas changed all of that. No, it's not a run-a... Read Full Review

F.E.A.R.

Brilliant FPS with a few flaws

Having a computer that could not come remotely close to actually handling this game, my experience with F.E.A.R for the 360 impressed me immensely. It is a terrific looking game that has a top-notch ability to draw you i... Read Full Review
