	Xenosaga Episode I: Der Wille zur Macht review (PS2) Reviewed on March 13, 2007 One of the most common complaints that RPG fans have about the current state of the genre is that there's too much videos and storyline and not enough gameplay. While this does tend to be the rule nowadays, I as an RPG fan have no problem with this evolution, as role playing games have always focused on storyline and I am sure that if developers had the technology in the SNES/NES era, we'd have seen a lot more games like Xenogears and Final Fantasy X back then, too.
	Wii Sports review (WII) Reviewed on March 11, 2007 Gym class is the worst part of a school’s curriculum. There are few things more cringe-inducing than the shrill screech of a coach’s whistle. The morning sun turns the basketball courts into giant frying pans. The students around you are in a constant state of exhaustion due to their lacking physical skills. You can hear them grunting with each agonizing push-up. Their faces are the color of mashed tomatoes and flooded with sweat and tears. You can smell the sweet fragrance of body odor drifting...
	Hang On GP review (SAT) Reviewed on March 10, 2007 Handling in Hang On GP is.... interesting. When you make a turn at a corner, your entire motorcycle will kiss the pavement in a millisecond. This wouldn't be much of a bad thing if you were actually turning that hard, but the thing is, you're not actually turning that hard. What may look like a hard turn on screen is actually something more of a normal turn, where you just move along a little bit. Of course, this is problematic when going through a bunch of corners in a race, due to the f...
	The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess review (GCN) Reviewed on March 10, 2007 [Warning: this review isn't exactly meant to be a stand alone review for someone who's never played the game before. If you're looking for descriptions of the game or basic overviews, get out, as you'll find none of that here. This review's long enough already.]
	Yoshi's Island DS review (DS) Reviewed on March 10, 2007 Poor Yoshi. Despite his role as one of Nintendo’s popular characters, he’ll never get the same kind of treatment that the Mario Brothers enjoy. This little green dinosaur amounts to little more than a sidekick, a beast of burden whose sole existence revolves around meaningless drudgery. Sure, Yoshi can eat wild berries and swallow enemies with a single lash of his lethal tongue. Big deal. He’ll never get the chance to kick Bowser’s ass, be the savior of the Mushroom Kingdom, or get smooched by P...
	Winning Eleven: Pro Evolution Soccer 2007 review (PSP) Reviewed on March 09, 2007 There were several occasions where I would shoot the ball, it would smack the goalie right in the head, launch into the air for several seconds, then—finally—he would stick his hands up, in some feeble attempt to block my shot, which he already did with his face
	SkiFree review (PC) Reviewed on March 08, 2007
	Medal of Honor: Allied Assault - Spearhead review (PC) Reviewed on March 08, 2007 Medal of Honor: Allied Assault, the first PC game of the popular Medal of Honor series, was one of the first World War II based shooters to really capture the feel of the war. With impressive graphics, incredible sound, and an emphasis on historical events rather than fictional stories, the game quickly captured the attention of gamers. Allied Assault basically started the World War II FPS subgenre that we have all come to love and hate. While the early games in the series w...
	Oddworld: Abe's Oddysee review (PSX) Reviewed on March 07, 2007 Does anyone remember Abe?
	Bubsy in Claws Encounters of the Furred Kind review (GEN) Reviewed on March 07, 2007 9/10…
	CrimeWave review (SAT) Reviewed on March 06, 2007 Crime has gotten out of hand in the city of Mekeo, making the mayor resort to replacing the normal police force with bounty hunters. You are one of these bounty hunters, and your job is to drive around town in a souped-up "police car", find criminals, and blow them up on the spot. That's basically what you do in CrimeWave, and even though it's a simple premise, things get really heated at times. As you attempt to hunt down these criminals in an overhead perspective, catching up to them wi...
	Star Wars Episode III: Revenge of the Sith review (GBA) Reviewed on March 06, 2007 Star Wars Episode 3: Revenge of the Sith is a simple, humble story about a whiny little pissant’s journey into becoming one of the most iconic villains in movie history. Its video game counterpart is a simple, humble story about a whiny little pissant walking to the right constantly and killing everything he sees.
	Sonic and the Secret Rings review (WII) Reviewed on March 05, 2007 There’s definitely room for refinement, but if you can tolerate the occasional moments where Sonic and the Secret Rings stumbles and stalls, you’ll find one of Sonic’s greatest adventures to date.
	Winning Eleven: Pro Evolution Soccer 2007 review (DS) Reviewed on March 04, 2007 A missed crosskick.
	The Mark review (PC) Reviewed on March 04, 2007 Not that the terrorists will use cover much; they much prefer to stand in the open beneath big neon arrows adorned with “Shoot Me!” in flashing electric pink. And so, you shoot them, as peace-keepers are wont to do, either mowing them down with Fletcher’s assault-rifle or blasting them with Hawke’s shotgun and watching them tumble bonelessly to the floor.
	Guardian Heroes review (SAT) Reviewed on March 04, 2007 As you and your band of adventurers gather around the table, chatting about the sword you have acquired, a green-haired knight comes busting through the door. She warns about the royal knights raiding the place, and before you have time to process it all, you find yourself fighting off a group of soldiers in a burning building. You eventually escape, but as you make it to the streets, you see that more soldiers have been waiting for you. Everyone in your group escapes, but you stay behind with t...
	Final Fantasy VI Advance review (GBA) Reviewed on March 01, 2007 (Note: I never played the original FF6, so I have no real views on the new translation debate. However, from comparing scripts, I think the new script is a lot better and more clear. If you are playing the game for nostalgia, you should probably be doing it with a SNES controller in your hand anyway, that’s all I have to say on that…)
	Meteos: Disney Magic review (DS) Reviewed on March 01, 2007 There are familiar films like “The Nightmare Before Christmas” and “The Little Mermaid,” but “Aladdin” and “Beauty and the Beast” and many others don’t make an appearance at all. At least those characters who do show up are represented well. You get neat little pseudo-animations, like Mulan riding a surfboard with Stitch or the fairy godmother getting ready to cast a spell.
	Deus Ex: The Conspiracy review (PS2) Reviewed on March 01, 2007 Establishing Cyberpunk Deus
	Devil May Cry review (PS2) Reviewed on March 01, 2007 Talk of Devil May Cry being a Resident Evil sequel may seem less ridiculous in light of the fairly slick RE4, but even then it's a bit of a stretch. It's tough to imagine that the game was originally set to be a slow trek through cramped corridors, or that its arsenal of shotguns, pistols, and grenade launchers would have limited and carefully rationed ammo, or that its sword-toting antihero Dante might have been caught wielding a puny knife. More than anything, I can't picture him obeying those...
