    The ONLY Team-based superhero game that really cuts it. Nuff said!

    Marvel: Ultimate Alliance 2

    The ONLY Team-based superhero game that really cuts it. Nuff said!

    This game isn't perfect, but it's the only one of it's kind that really does the superhero TEAM genre justice. It does many things well, including great graphics, the ability to mix and match heroes and heroines, good ga... Read Full Review

    Great production values but some design issues

    Far Cry 2

    Great production values but some design issues

    Let me get right to it; this is a game worth playing but the story drags along too much unnecessarily. No problems on the production values -- the setting is unique and makes you sort of feel like you're in Africa. Th... Read Full Review

    God of War Collection (Ultimate Combo Pack)

    Great value; 2 classic games updated for the ps3

    I'd been waiting for this to come out, and it certainly did not disappoint. These were 2 games I had never played. I saw them in action, but never quite felt drawn to them at their prime, not even friends and nephews ... Read Full Review

    Great campaign story; Immersive multiplayer; Excellent straightforward controls

    Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare

    Great campaign story; Immersive multiplayer; Excellent straightforward controls

    I have to admit, I have been following the shooter genre more than any other genre ever since. Both the simplicity of the gaming experience (pointing and shooting at anything that moves), and the illusion of being in a 3... Read Full Review

    Battlefield: Bad Company

    Great fun; Too easy though

    I must be missing something; why are a lot of people comparing this to the call of duty games? There is no comparison to make -- this is a totally different game that plays totally different from that other series. NO... Read Full Review

    Wide, open world; Great variety; Play however you want!

    Ahhh.... Fallout. I played the first two games on the PC, and when the GOTY edition came out for Ps3, I knew I just had to play it --- if only just for the nostalgia. Things are a lot different now, as expected. This... Read Full Review

    Call of Duty: World at War

    A shooter that's definitely worth playing. But be prepared for some frustrating sections.

    I'm a fan of the "Call of Duty" franchise. I've played every single game since the beginning and therefore have developed quite a bit of expectation whenever a new one comes along. Everyone knows that there are "two m... Read Full Review

    Very polished; great graphics and sounds. A little repetitive but satisfying nonetheless

    Its been over a year since I finished this game, and even now it remains to be one of the more graphically satisfying games out there. The in-game world feels like a living, breathing environment with real people populat... Read Full Review

    Dead Space

    Great atmosphere, excellent graphics and a chilling story to tie everything together.

    I'm writing this more than a year after I played this, so I'll keep it short by sticking with the important stuff: This is perhaps the best survival horror type of game at the time it came out, and at the time I played i... Read Full Review

    Need for Speed Carbon: Own the City

    An engaging story plus solid racing gameplay equals a good game. Nothing fancy though, but definitely worth playing.

    Need for Speed Carbon: Own the City is a solid racing game with an interesting setting and story behind it. The campaign/story mode alone is worth the purchase, considering how long the story is and how many cars you can... Read Full Review

    Medal of Honor Heroes

    A great first person shooter for the PSP! If only they made it longer.

    Playing a first person shooter on the Ps2 was difficult enough, and so I wasn't expecting much when I began loading up Medal of Honor Heroes on the PSP. Boy, was I pleasantly surprised. True, the control system jus... Read Full Review

    World Series of Poker

    Poker with the Pros... what's not to like? With a little more polish, this game could really take off.

    I'm not really a big poker fan, but I do play with friends once a week. I rarely watch games on the TV so I really don't know all the poker pros (except for Gus Hansen, Chipp Jett, and a few others) and how they play. Be... Read Full Review

    A good boxing game with nice replay value, but it could have been great.

    Fight Night Round 3 comes across as a polished boxing game with engaging gameplay and an enjoyable Rival Challenge mode. Sounds good? It is. But it could have been better. First, what's working for the game... A l... Read Full Review

    NBA Live 07

    Excellent Variety of Game Modes equals a great game for the PSP. However, there are a few major gameplay issues.

    When I bought my PSP, the only games I thought were worth playing on it were PS2 mainstays Tekken, Fight Night and of course, NBA Live. Instant classics, unquestionably worthy of a separate purchase. I don't regret t... Read Full Review

    Bells and Whistles don't mean a thing if the game's too short and simple.

    Two things are for sure: The game looks and sounds great. If you feel graphics and sounds are enough to make a great game, go ahead and move on to the next player review because you may not agree with my point of vie... Read Full Review

    The Darkness

    An original story accompanied by great gameplay make this a unique shooter even for newcomers.

    After being spoiled by better-looking games, it took me quite some time to get into "The Darkness". But when I finally digged in, I found a different kind of shooter -- one with great gameplay (and controls), and an intr... Read Full Review

    Stellar presentation, realistic storytelling, and balanced gameplay make this one of the best out there. Amazing.

    This game is a classic. The graphics are amazing (considering the age), the story is immersive, and the gameplay is so balanced and smooth (even on "crushing" mode), that the game is a pleasure to play even on the th... Read Full Review

    The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion

    Amidst the hype and rave reviews, Oblivion meets all expectations and delivers even more. A masterpiece RPG.

    Very few games deliver more than expectations. Oblivion is one of these, a hardcore RPG set in a completely open fantasy world. Despite being a couple of years old, and even among more current games, Oblivion still manag... Read Full Review

    DOOM 3

    One of the most incredibly immersive, heavily atmospheric games you can find on the market.

    Even if there isn't much of a story (its practically one long dungeon crawl and the characterization is close to nil), Doom 3 manages to suck you into the game setting and make you feel alive. It does this through beauti... Read Full Review
