Sometimes you will gonna cry too by dam4rus Pros: Great combat system.More casual friendly than previous installments.
Cons: Weak boss fights,weak story.Nero's Devil Bringer's potential not fully realized. Well one of the best console action title returns with Devil May Cry 4.The quality of the series is like a roller coaster trip.While the original blow-ed away almost everyone with it's combat system and style,the second game was a big let down,but ...

Metal Gear Solid 4 - A Reason to Get a Playstation 3 by t13monkeys Pros: graphics, epic score, ties up all the loose ends, diversity of locations and gameplay styles
Cons: a bit repetitive and longwinded Sure, the PS3 doesn’t have much going for it, since a majority of games are actually on both consoles, and the few exclusives that 360 has managed to incorporate (Halo 3, GoW 2) easily has made it the console of choice. But there’s one ...

Imagination Required by itlog Pros: Relaxing
Colorful presentation Easy Cons: No Challenge Some pointless aspects Story is forgettable, for a game named 'Fable' Fable 2 is a game set in the late medieval to early renaissance period. It combines three genres: RPG, Action and Business simulation - however, not to an equal degree. More on that later. 1. GraphicsThe graphics are lush and colorful. It is ...

Nintendo DS Games - Mario & Luigi Partners in Time (RPG/Adventure) by Mr_D Pros: Charming story, interesting gameplay mechanics, interesting gameworld.
Cons: Long, repetitive. No real challenge. Mario & Luigi Partners in Time is the sequel to to Superstar Saga for the Gameboy Advance. I never played the original, but the sequel was suggested to me by my brother who had purchased it for his kids. I like RPGs, I like Mario - I had enjoyed ...

Give Me Space Channel 5 Part 2, Or Give Me Death! by ladyrei18 Pros: Kicking Soundtrack.
Great Dance Moves Immence Amount of Fun. Cons: The Game Itself Is Kind of Short. The Dreamcast original Space Channel 5 wasn't so much a smashing success as it was a cult hit. Not may people played it, and even fewer people heard of it. When I heard that a sequel was being made for the PS2, I nearly cried tears of joy. The first ...

Mario and Luigi Superstar Saga: A strong game for a strong system by garfield135 Pros: Graphics, sound, gameplay, controls, fun factor
Cons: It could be slightly more challenging and longer First of all, I'm gonna start off with a bit of the story, and then the review.So, apparently, Cackletta steals Peach's voice, so Mario and Luigi go out to get it back. Mario fights Bowzer, and he loses, (really?) and they become allies (and ...

Welcome to the World of Tomorrow by zero_ Pros: Engaging gameplay is more strategic than it looks. Fantastic sense of style and exploration.
Cons: Lots of time consuming walking around, occasionally confusing navigation. You're not a true nerd if you haven't been waiting the last decade for Fallout 3 to come along. Like so many other cult classics, the first two Fallout games didn't sell very well at their time(s) of release, and dated as their graphics and interfaces ...

If American Idol was this easy, I'd be famous by kisarune Pros: Fun, entertaining, challenging, character customization
Cons: graphics, blips in judge critque I'll admit that I'm a sucker for these Karaoke games.I love Karaoke, but hate the fact that bars are smokey, I have to wait a good hour between songs, and I have to watch a bunch of drunk college kids grind and giggle on the dance floor.So ...

Bluestreak Forever by BaronSamedi3 Pros: Tails is functional!
Cons: The Carnival Night Zone music! Ugh! Deciding what the best Sonic the Hedgehog game in the popular series is can be a difficult task, but Sonic the Hedgehog 3 brings plenty to the table for one hell of an opening statement. While Sonic 3 doesn't contain quite as many levels as Sonic 2, it ...

I Want To Kiss The Ground Beneath Its Feet. by ladyrei18 Pros: Almost everything.
Cons: With most fighters, it gets a little boring and repetitive after a while. Bow before your maker, and gaze upon the perfection that is...SOUL CALIBUR II!!!This game...I don't know where to begin. Namco has done it again. The sequel to the ever popular Soul Calibur is here, and it's MULTI PLATFORM!!! That's ...

My God, Is This Game Amazing! by ladyrei18 Pros: Everything, the game OOZES awesome!
Cons: Nothing, the game OOZES awesome! Soul Calibur. Everyone's heard of it. If you haven't, there's no better time to. Soul Calibur III is possibly the best in the Soul series since the first game. Soul Calibur II was great, don't get me wrong, but it kind of lacks the same replay value that ...

Why do they make the third D&D's the best? by dmarusz Pros: Great quests and puzzlles. good story. good interactivity with NPCs.
Cons: some graphics issues and not a strategic fighting game really. At first, I was going to give this game 5 stars, graded on a curve. For an expansion pack, it is well beyond what's normally given. Then, I was enjoying the game so much that I thought that it just plain deserved 5 stars. Now, I'm back ...

Why run when you can train? by dmarusz Pros: Nice interface and easy to pick up. Some good MMO stuff.
Cons: arasing fogs of war and no xp for quests. Starting out as a testing ground to see what MMO players like in a game, Dungeon Runners appears to give you a great game for free. However, the more it lives, the more it is not (free.) Trick? Perhaps. However, it was an interesting enough concept to ...

More things to make you go BOOM - Gears of War 2 by Rock_On Pros: Horde mode, better fleshed out story, fun new weapons
Cons: Matchmaking problems Gears of War 2 had a hell of a lot of hype leading up to it's release. Ever since the first Gears made waves in 2006 with multiple Game of the Year awards, XBOX 360 owners have slobbered over the inevitable sequel, and here we are. After reading ...

Welcome To Post-Apocalyptia - Fallout 3 by awoolcott Pros: Another huge world, numerous great quests
Cons: The main quest is pretty meh-tastic In some circles, Fallout 3 is one of the most controversial games ever. Not for what you think; instead, it's a battle between old-school Fallout players whom were into the series when it was PC-only, and new owner Bethesda, who acquired the rights a few ...

Surrounded by hordes of zombies, will you be Left 4 Dead or will you survive? by jbrd Pros: Excellent premise and brilliant execution, graphics.
Cons: Only four scenarios with 5 levels in each(20 levels) I wonder what would happen if zombies did swarm all over Earth. What would we do? Run and don't look back or would we be like the four survivors in Left 4 Dead and fight? I, for one, would like to just run and get the hell out, but whats the fun in that ...

Despite some issues, this is an ambitious game by garethvk Pros: Weapons degrade, malaria, open maps and missions.
Cons: can be repetitive, A.I. is just ok. In Far Cry 2, the new first person shooter from Ubisoft players get immersed into an open world environment that is utterly beautiful as it is deadly. As the game opens, players select the character they wish to play and are treated to a lavish ...

Does Activision's First 007 Title Live Or (Let) Die? by Shaunpm60 Pros: Good use of Call Of Duty 4 engine, good presentation. Not a failure.
Cons: More Casino than Quantum, no driving segments, short, lacks variety. As you may have figured out by now, Activision is the new publisher/holder of the 007 franchise. The first game to be released from the company isn't by any means bad, but if they were ever thinking of differentiating themselves from what EA has produced ...

Great as a fun game, Mediocre or still ok if taken seriously. by sp3ctre18 Pros: Creators can make awesome creations; fun; experience of cell to space-faring beings; for all ages
Cons: Creators need more simple shapes, gameplay not deep, evil DRM; customers pay pirates' deeds. Spore was one of most anticipated games of this year. It was meant to be something like a Sim-Everything, 5 games in one. And anyone who's like me knew the proper reaction to the idea they could pull it off, well, was something like "yeah right" and ...
