Sly Cooper and the Thievius Raccoonus review (PS2)Reviewed on February 16, 2012While Sly Cooper occasionally shows glimpses of stealth, it just doesn't do enough to be called a stealth game. It's a decent action game, and a very good platformer. But, a stealth game, it isn't. |

Michael Jackson: The Experience HD review (VITA)Reviewed on February 15, 2012While Michael Jackson: The Experience HD is an engaging experience as far as it goes, there’s just not enough of it. Anyone who is happy that there are only 15 songs probably shouldn’t be buying the game in the first place, and fans who totally dig what Ubisoft has done here will probably wish for two or three times the number of selections. |

TNN Motorsports Hardcore Heat review (DC)Reviewed on February 15, 2012When the Dreamcast was released in the U.S. on September 9, 1999, it had a bevy of varied launch games to back it up. Some were titles everyone knew and had to get, like SoulCalibur and Sonic Adventure, then there were the rest, the "second choices" that spanned many genres: action, racing, sports, and so on. It was easy to get lost in the shuffle, fallen to obscurity, and it happened with quite a few. Hardcore Heat was such a GD-ROM, an off road-ish racing game of the arcadey kind. |

Godzilla 2: War of the Monsters review (NES)Reviewed on February 15, 2012Welcome to Godzilla 2, where every mission is a tedious uphill struggle against a collection of nearly undefeatable colossi. Not unless you want a jaw-jacking challenge with little reward will you find this game entertaining. The first mission will be enough to convince most to stop playing all together and forget that Toho ever developed their own Godzilla game. |

Homefront review (PS3)Reviewed on February 14, 2012I stopped expecting First Person Shooters to be marathon slogs a long time ago, but I don’t think I’m ready to expect them to stop being good. |

Final Fantasy XIII-2 review (PS3)Reviewed on February 14, 2012There seem to be many who think that just because a game has high production costs it should automatically have a grade of average or higher, especially when it comes from Square Enix. But people should have learned by now that high production values do not make a good game. Competent script writing and involving gameplay have been sacrificed once again for pretty graphics. |

Dear Esther review (PC)Reviewed on February 14, 2012Dear Esther is barely a videogame by any conventional sense of the term and approaching it like one will lead to nothing but frustration. But if you're lucky, it clicks, not as a game but as a powerful and moving emotional experience. |

Final Fantasy XIII-2 review (X360)Reviewed on February 12, 2012I’ve now wasted 60 hours of my life on FFXIII-2. I’ve found all of the fragments, earned all of the achievements, and seen all of the endings. I know this game inside-out. I know it better than many of the people who like it. No one could accuse me of not giving it a fair chance. And yet every effort I made to find value in it was unceremoniously shot down. |

Sega Classics Collection review (PS2)Reviewed on February 10, 2012Easily one of the most deceiving titles ever, Sega Classics Collection does include an array of old-school Sega games, sure, but, besides an exception, the games featured are not the original versions. The titles in this compilation were first released individually in Japan as part of the Sega Ages budget line for the PlayStation 2, which lasted for five years and had a total of 33 volumes, though, at the time of this collection's launch, only 17 were available. |

The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim review (X360)Reviewed on February 10, 2012It's the sort of fantasy epic that perfectly matches the game's barbarian choir musical intro and the constant array of thick nordic voices exhorting you to fight for your country. Still, it was dozens upon dozens of hours before any of this main quest work was done for any reason other than me randomly wandering somewhere I was supposed to be. |

Tales of Phantasia review (GBA)Reviewed on February 10, 2012While the 'Kangaroo' incident is insulting to fans who craved a legit localization, it's not nearly as infuriating as wading through 20+ hours worth of dull, clunky battles with annoying voice acting. Namco should know better than to flip off their fans with weak ports and lousy translations. |

Final Fantasy XIII-2 review (PS3)Reviewed on February 08, 2012Why didn’t Square just make Lightning a pop singer and call it a day? |

White Knight Chronicles: International Edition review (PS3)Reviewed on February 08, 2012White Knight Chronicles would have been better had Level 5 focused on creating an entertaining single player game with an engrossing story, and then marketed the online components as a separate title. The developers spread their attention on each aspect too thin, and crafted a mediocre addition to the J-RPG library with a ho-hum story. |

SoulCalibur V review (PS3)Reviewed on February 07, 2012Depending on what you expect from a SoulCalibur game, SoulCalibur V may either be the best game in the series, or the worst. |

Dragon Wars review (APP2)Reviewed on February 06, 2012Bard's Tale IV never came--in name, anyway. It took a couple times through Dragon Wars (DW) for me to see I'd found something as good. |

SoulCalibur V review (PS3)Reviewed on February 06, 2012It’s got a lot of great ideas, but ultimately falls short of its potential. |

F-Zero GX review (GCN)Reviewed on February 05, 2012F-Zero GX is an extreme game. Extremely difficult, extremely gorgeous, extremely fast, extremely deep roster, extremely bad voice acting, and extremely fun. |

The Simpsons Arcade Game review (X360)Reviewed on February 04, 2012Certainly, you’ll see a large number of recycled goons, but the variety is still impressive considering the game’s era. There are pot-bellied businessmen, women with afros, ninja warriors, ghosts and lanky janitors, among others. New stages always have a new threat or two, and even familiar adversaries will mix things up by bringing weapons to the brawl. You can do the same thing yourself. |

Quarrel review (X360)Reviewed on February 04, 2012I know what you're thinking: "Just what we needed, another Xbox Live word game..." Well, cheer up, because Quarrel isn't your average Scrabble clone. It's a charming combination of word unscrambling and turn-based strategy warfare. Wait, wha-? No, you didn’t read that wrong; in Quarrel your goal is to control all of the territories on the game board using the unstoppable force of your Word IQ. |
