Dungeon Defenders

A game that, on the surface, seems to have everything together.

I have to admit that I have willingly spent a lot of time playing Dungeon Defenders and for a considerable time I really enjoyed this game. The unique blend of RTS and action RPG has a lot of potential. Plus, I have a fo... Read Full Review

Mirror's Edge

A good game that falls short of its full potential.

Mirror's Edge is a unique and often frustrating game to play through. It is a first-person platformer and while everything starts off well, you'll likely be wanting to throw the controller at some point before the end. D... Read Full Review

Worms Ultimate Mayhem

Warning! Fun not included.

I've played several Worms games and I thought I was purchasing a fun package of the best stuff from Worms 3D titles. While it does have all the weapons and option you might want, the fun seems to have been lost in this i... Read Full Review

Gundam Musou International

A book that likely can be judged by its cover.

DW: Gundam is pretty much explained in its entirety in the title. It is a Dynasty Warriors game that replaces the typical characters with Mobile Suit Pilots. This actually works out quite well especially for Gundam Fans,... Read Full Review

Blazing Birds

The premier Badminton game for the Xbox 360!

Spider-Man: Friend or Foe

Fun for a weekend, but not much more.

Spider-Man FoF is one of those games your six year cousin will tirelessly enjoy playing, to the point of annoyance. That isn't to say it is not fun. While playing through your first time, you're bound to have at least a ... Read Full Review

Pocket Monsters Black

The game that you grew up with that did not grow up with you.

Mario is Missing!

Educational game that gets the job done.

Wii Sports

Perfect Casual Gameplay

Wii Sports is the reason the Wii has managed to maintain so much momentum. It makes great use of the Wiimote controls and is a lot of fun with multiple players. The game is completely approachable and should appeal to an... Read Full Review

Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games

Decent game that fails to live up to its potential.

Putting Mario an Sonic characters in the same game has been the dream of many for quite some time. Now it is realized, but not in the way people hoped. Though Mario and Sonic at the Olympics can be quite fun for a while ... Read Full Review

Dragon Age II

If you make a sandwich with moldy bread it doesn't matter how good the stuff in the middle is.

Dragon Age 2 is a game that aspired to greatness, but was obviously hindered by deadlines. Completing Dragon Age 2 is a stupefying experience and will leave most players feeling awkward and unfulfilled. Its not that the ... Read Full Review

Trauma Center: Second Opinion

Great fun and Good use of the Wiimote.

Trauma Center: Second Opinion is a fun game to play that is themed around an ER style surgeon. The game has some great gameplay, but there are some elements that distract from it. Overall though, it is worth playing and ... Read Full Review

Resident Evil 5

While its not classic Resident Evil, it is a very compelling game with a fun co-op campaign and plenty of replay value.

Resident Evil 5 is a very fun and intense game based around a co-op campaign. It doesn't try to scare as much as it predecessors and probably has more shooting than it needs, but it still an exciting ride. Your first tim... Read Full Review

Halo 2

A great game when originally released, now its age shows

Halo 2 was originally released in 2004 and the gameplay itself holds up really well. However, the game does show its age especially in the graphics. For those who jumped into the Halo franchise on 3, like me, and are loo... Read Full Review

Marble Blast Ultra

A fun game that is well worth the price of $5.

Marble blast ultra has recently lowered its price to $5. At that price this game warrants a second look and I think you'll enjoy it if you give it a try. People who have played Monkeyball and enjoyed it, might find a sim... Read Full Review

Game Dev Story

Longevity + Replay Value + Fun = WIN!

Yoshi no Road Hunting

The best use of the Super Scope on the Super Nintendo.

When I first got the super scope I was impressed with the light gun style mechanics, but really wasn't thrilled with the quality of games that came with it. Consequently, the super scope itself was largely neglected. Wel... Read Full Review

flOw

PSN's best cure for insomnia.

Flow has been praised in forums and blogs quite often and that was all I had heard about it. What those blogs and forums failed to warn me is that Flow is a form of interactive art that does very little from a gameplay p... Read Full Review

Dash of Destruction

Fun and Free

Dash of Destruction is an advergame, like the previously released Yaris. Unlike Yaris, DoD doesn't suck so it is worth downloading. It is a simple game of cars vs T-rex. It is short, but sweet, with the easiest 200 Gamer... Read Full Review

PlayStation Home

Pointless time waster that isn't worth the hard drive space.

Guitar Hero III: Legends of Rock

I've never tried Guitar Hero, so I don't know how this compares to the originals.

I listened to the reviews saying this was the hardest Guitar Hero yet, but I've been wanting to jump in on the craze for some time now and the Wireless Guitar was calling me. I bought this game and am happy I did, as it ... Read Full Review

007: Quantum of Solace

A Bond game that has flaws, but is a lot of fun to play.

Quantum of Solace is an imperfect game that makes very little attempt to steal the title of "Best Bond Game" from Goldeneye, but that doesn't mean it isn't worth looking at. Also, the game runs on the same engine as Call... Read Full Review

Crackdown 2

Very similar to the original, but not as good.

Crackdown 2 is an experiment in stagnation. It seems like the developers put extra effort into seeing how little they could change and still release this title as a numbered sequel. Nothing has been improved, although th... Read Full Review

Yaris

You might be able to get five minutes of fun out of this.

This is an advergame and not a very good one at that. I don't know who toyota thought they would entice with this but they failed, and might in fact deter some people from buying this car. What were left with is a strang... Read Full Review

Beautiful Katamari

Having Never played the originals, this was a totally new experience.

Beautiful Katamari is a unique experience on the Xbox 360. There really isn't another game on the system like it. If you're a fan of the series then you'll probably already want to try this version, but if you were like ... Read Full Review

Dragon Age: Origins - Awakening

A few bugs don't stop Awakening from being an expansion every fan of Dragon Age Origins should want.

DA:O Awakening is an excellent expansion for people who enjoyed the original game and are up for a little bit more. It doesn't stray much from the core game although it is somewhat streamlined. The combat is the same and... Read Full Review

TotemBall

Barely worth the price.

This game is horrible. The controls don't work. Sometimes you think they're going to work, but they don't. If you download this game hoping you'll have fun you'll be disappointed because it is bad. I wish I could say it ... Read Full Review

Aegis Wing

Great because its free!

This game is free and largely that is one of the reasons I think so fondly of it, but I've also spent a lot of time playing it and it is a lot of fun. If you have people over at your house they're not going to want to si... Read Full Review

Well balanced fun. Great for everyone!

Catan

Just like the board game, online you can always find someone to play against.

I am extremely biased as I think Settlers of Catan is probably the best board game ever made. This XBLA version takes everything from the game and makes it available for online play with achievements. This visuals are... Read Full Review

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: 1989 Classic Arcade

Messed up screen wont correct itself.

I bought this game as I was a big fan of the arcade. This is a very good interpretation of it and you can either play local or online co-op, which is as it should be. The game itself is very short, but the achievements c... Read Full Review

Pokemon Ranger

Innovative... but still boring.

This game tries something different and for a while you'll have some fun. It makes great use of the DS stylus and looks great too. The story is just alright and the gameplay gets repetitive after a while. Whats new in... Read Full Review

Heavy Weapon: Atomic Tank

Surprisingly difficult game

There are some things I like about this game and some things I don't. The game itself is fun to play and its campaign is pretty long. There is also an online mode, but I don't know if you would be able to find people on ... Read Full Review

Baseball game for people who previously haven't liked baseball games

Uno

Not fun.

Uno has to be the most uninspired game to ever be lauded with praise. Besides setting up the rules there is usually little you can do to directly effect the outcome of the game. If you've played the Uno card game, this i... Read Full Review

Geometry Wars: Retro Evolved

The must own title on the XBLA!
