    Just because it doesn't improve on Rock Band doesn't mean it isn't a top quality game.

    Just because it doesn't improve on Rock Band doesn't mean it isn't a top quality game.

    This is an excellent game, first of all. This article won't compare this game to Rock Bands 1 or 2, (this and those are similar) but it will look at the game by itself. First of all, the drum pads and drumming set up i... Read Full Review

    This game is so huge that its size is part of what detracts from it.

    Warhammer Online is a game that with a patch bringing all the classes up to speed with each other will be excellent. It stands out for its pvp, and has a great system for Group Quests. There are three zones each split ... Read Full Review

    This game is very good, for what it is. If you are a person who doesn't like shooters, don't read on. If you are someone who likes when you have to make the decision to go on a full out assault or snipe from a distance... Read Full Review

    This game is so close to being a 9, although I couldn't tell you why.

    I think that this game is one of the most interesting games I have played. the graphics are very interestingly done, with most of it being a cartoon. This seems to be a good game for someone who likes anime. I do not ... Read Full Review

    Best FPS of the past three years, including MW2, which I had owned for many months before finally purchasing this.

    This game compared to MW2 is like comparing Lebron James to Kwame Brown; both are in the same league, but one is simply undeniably better than the other. The first feeling you receive in Battlefield is one of being in a... Read Full Review
