	Thexder Neo HD review (PS3) Reviewed on March 22, 2010 Enemies come at you fast, but luckily your laser beam has homing capabilities, so you needn’t even aim to bring them down. Being successful is more a function of edging forward gradually enough to bring the enemies onto the screen slowly enough for the beam to melt the bad guys before they reach your face.
	The Saboteur review (PS3) Reviewed on March 21, 2010 The Saboteur was the last game Pandemic Studios produced before they were shut down. Pandemic certainly went out with a bang, as the Saboteur has you blowing up more Nazis than you probably ever have before.
	Ratchet & Clank Future: A Crack in Time review (PS3) Reviewed on March 21, 2010 Ratchet and Clank Future: A Crack in Time is the third Ratchet and Clank game produced for the Playstation 3, and also the conclusion to the Future storyline. It boasts almost Pixar-esque quality graphics combined with the same styled gameplay that the franchise has been built on. It is definitely worth playing, but doesn't do a whole lot to differentiate itself from the other Ratchet and Clank games. The charm from previous games returns and the witty and clever dialogue will have you laughing ...
	Heavy Rain review (PS3) Reviewed on March 21, 2010 A term that some may use to describe Heavy Rain is "Interactive Drama". In fact, that is a term that the Developers have used, and have even included that phrase in one of the unlockable trophies included in the game. Heavy Rain really does embody this expression, as it truly does blur the line between film and game.
	Bladestorm: The Hundred Years' War review (PS3) Reviewed on March 21, 2010 Bladestorm, while not technically or visually stunning, manages to bring simplistic gameplay and a degree of customization together in order to create a fresh game. Bladestorm is by no means perfect, but allows for a large amount of playtime, albeit with a bit of grinding along the way, that will keep you playing all the way until the terribly unsatisfactory ending.
	Assassin's Creed II review (X360) Reviewed on March 21, 2010 An improvement is typically something that one looks for in a sequel, and if improvement is what you are looking for in Assassin's Creed II, then you will not be disappointed. Assassin's Creed II takes every part of Assassin's Creed, and ramps it up a notch. In fact, there is no area that the sequel regressed in, and progression is seen every time you turn the corner. With that being said there are still flaws, or annoyances as they truly turn out to be.
	Digimon Rumble Arena 2 review (PS2) Reviewed on March 21, 2010 Digimon Rumble Arena 2 takes you into the Digital World once again for a Super Smash Brothers style fighting game for the Gamecube, Playstation 2, and Xbox. You get to pick a Digimon and use different moves in order to defeat 2-4 others in a 2D fighting game. There may not be as much depth as Super Smash Brothers, but it is fun enough to want to play it through, and maybe boot it up with friends, assuming you have enough self esteem to not be embarrassed by playing a Digimon game designed for ch...
	Custom Robo review (GCN) Reviewed on March 21, 2010 Custom Robo certainly isn't your typical fighting game. Customization plays a major role, and creating characters that have balance certainly isn't the games objective. The main objective is to create the strongest fighter you can, typically something seen in RPGs or Action/Adventure titles. It would appear that mixing in amazing customization seemed to work for Noise Inc, as they created one of the more memorable titles for the GameCube.
	MLB 10: The Show review (PS3) Reviewed on March 21, 2010 The Show series has always been of top quality, and this year iteration is no different. That is actually saying things quite literally, as there really is no difference in the actual game than the previous year as well. Some might say that you can't fix what isn't broken, and that is true for most aspects in MLB 10, but other parts feel dated and really should have been fixed and improved to make this game feel like less of a glorified roster update.
	Final Fantasy XIII review (PS3) Reviewed on March 20, 2010 The multi-faceted nature of combat means that in Final Fantasy XIII, nearly every battle is a fresh adventure. That's not evident in the first few hours, where you're still learning new techniques and simply mashing the 'X' button allows you to slaughter most enemies that you encounter. The dynamic changes abruptly once you've been playing for a few hours, however, and you're suddenly going up against monsters so powerful that they can smash tanks, or you're fighting so many at once that they can overwhelm you almost before the fight begins unless you truly understand how to get the most out of your party members.
	Greed Corp review (X360) Reviewed on March 20, 2010 Once you have mastered the basics of the game and can minimise the number of wrong button presses, Greed Corp is a solid, if unspectacular, strategy title at 800MSP.
	Final Fantasy XIII review (PS3) Reviewed on March 19, 2010 Is it good? That's what everyone has been asking in tremulous voices when the subject of Square Enix's most expensive addition to the Final Fantasy line up comes up.
	God of War III review (PS3) Reviewed on March 18, 2010 With grandiose symphony and fiery passion, Sony's declaration is clear: this is an epic the likes of which the world may never see again. The game's opening moments plunge this brazen ambition into the hearts of those who've forgotten such fanciful dreams. A host of titans wage war against the gods of Olympus, and the chaotic path along which players guide Kratos is truly unnerving. The ground itself shakes, for that ground is the back of the titan Gaia. Parasitic serpents burst from Gaia's flesh to bar the Spartan's path; when the titan of Earth stumbles from the pain, Kratos hangs precariously with one hand but still must fight. His soul is only at peace during battle.
	Tales of Monkey Island: Chapter 5 - Rise of the Pirate God review (PC) Reviewed on March 17, 2010 It's not a classic. It's still a game whose intricacies are likely to be forgotten within months. It's probably not even the best of the series, all considered. What it does have, though, is Tales' strongest moment, across all of the games.
	Myst review (PC) Reviewed on March 17, 2010 Today I found an old shoebox in my closet. When I opened it, it revealed a stack of papers, all of them littered with scribbled notes in pencil and quick sketches of strange artifacts, maps, and charts. I began to leaf through, intrigued by the unfamiliar handwriting, until I came to a drawing of an island. Underneath it was scrawled a single word: Myst.
	Valhalla Knights: Eldar Saga review (WII) Reviewed on March 16, 2010 It's unfortunate, too, because underneath all the crap lies the framework for what could be a very good game. You have your typical classes such as fighter, mage, and priest, who each have their own experience levels. You're free to change your class whenever you wish by heading to the guild and paying a fee. Each time your chosen class gains a level, you get skill points that you can distribute among different abilities that class posseses. Once you know a skill, you're able to set it in one of several slots, regardless of class. It goes without saying that this system allows you to customize your character in a variety of ways, and once you begin to unlock some of the more advanced classes like samurai and godhand, your ability to customize will only increase.
	Ace Combat 3: Electrosphere review (PSX) Reviewed on March 16, 2010 The one thing Ace Combat 3: Electrosphere can flaunt over its two PlayStation brethren is how diverse some of its missions are. One such early mission involves an automated plane (looks more like a blimp, but whatever) carrying deadly gas, and it's programmed to crash into a city. Destroying it would do more harm than good, so you're left with having to blow up all the structures in its path, ensuring it will land safely in the river. I'd question how they knew it was going to land in the...
	The Legend of Vraz review (PC) Reviewed on March 15, 2010 In its present form, the game merely comes across as an unnecessary mess of well-intentioned ideas made only slightly more amusing by the vague cultural undertones from India.
	Ultima review (APP2) Reviewed on March 15, 2010 Origin did the right thing releasing an improved version of Ultima I. The original, with less entertaining graphics and horrid controls, is tougher to find on the net. It's best to enjoy the chubby townsmen bouncing around bushes bigger than they are and ignore the silly plot: build a time machine to knock off the wizard Mondain before he can craft a powerful evil gem. Then, U1 is straightforward kill-the-big-wizard fun.
	Kingdom of Loathing review (PC) Reviewed on March 13, 2010 I'm a bit jealous it wasn't me who didn't listen, but hey, it's a great free game. Well, not quite. I've enjoyed donating to it for a while.
