    X-Men: The Official Game

    I haven't thrown a controller since I was six. This game changed all that.

    Movie game's are notoriously bad, and enough people will rant on about this game being no exception. I'll leve them to it, because my complaints go well beyond any of the standard movie tie-in nonsense. With the exce... Read Full Review

    If you haven't enjoyed a Hawk game since THPS3, don't bother with American Wasteland.

    Tony Hawk's American Wasteland

    If you haven't enjoyed a Hawk game since THPS3, don't bother with American Wasteland.

    The Tony Hawk franchise had a perfect formula, and for whatever reason they completely retooled it with the fourth installment and never looked back. Unfortunately that retooling didn't sit well with all of the series f... Read Full Review

    A compilation with great potential, but horrible execution.  At least Klax survived!

    Marble Madness / Klax

    A compilation with great potential, but horrible execution. At least Klax survived!

    Klax and Marble Madness are two very different titles and it shows - both in their original gameplay and how well that gameplay has been translated to this port. On the one hand, we have Klax - a mostly forgotten puzzler... Read Full Review

    Gretzky NHL

    It may not be the perfect game of hockey, but as the sole hockey title available at launch, it'll make do.

    I'm a Canadian, and I can tell you without a shadow of a doubt that being a Canadian is all about the game of hockey. Even if you don't watch it, play it, or understand it, you no doubt have a healthy respect for it. The... Read Full Review

    Feeding Frenzy

    It's simple, it's repetitive - but it's fun!

    Feeding Frenzy's Darwinian approach to pick-up-and-play gaming may be fun and refreshing, but despite it's original concept and colourful design it's simple gameplay mechanics get too stale after too short a time. It's ... Read Full Review

    Dead or Alive 4 (Platinum Hits)

    Accessible isn't a four letter word.

    A lot of people have given the Dead or Alive series flak for it's button-mashing, pick-up-and-play, accessible to anyone gameplay. But is being accessible to everyone really a bad thing? DOA4 takes the tried and true... Read Full Review

    God of War (Greatest Hits)

    Over-hyped and repetitive is no way to go through life, son.

    One thing that I'm sure we can all agree on is that buying into the hype before a game is released is a bad thing to do. Yet, it's a mistake we've all made from time to time. In most cases the game actually lives up to... Read Full Review

    Absolute puzzle perfection.
