With little notable improvement to the formula and steps backward in several key areas, SmackDown! vs. RAW 2008 is a big disappointment.
GrimGrimoire is a creative, one-of-a-kind game that's a lot of fun to play.
Compare PricesSupreme Commander gets even bigger and better-looking thanks to this feature-packed expansion.
Compare PricesConan the barbarian is exactly that -- a barbarian -- so you shouldn’t expect anything less than a blood and gore filled hack-and-slash.
With its launch rapidly approaching, we take another spin on the Xbox 360 and PS3 versions of MX vs. ATV Untamed.
We get some more hands-on time with Capcom's upcoming motorcycle racing sim.
Compare Prices"Epic" doesn't quite begin to describe the scope and scale of the latest Total War game -- there's a lot of strategic depth, with plenty of amazing combat to enjoy.
Compare PricesCompany of Heroes is fantastic in the short term and gameplay is well executed. But the longer you play this the more frustrating it becomes.
Dead Rising is the best zombie hacking fun you'll find on any console. Pity about the punishing save system, though, which makes a fun game almost feel like a chore at times.
Compare PricesSaints Row may look like just another Grand Theft Auto rip-off, but the rare quality of its action and presentation make it stand tall on its own merits.
Compare PricesThis unique mech combat sim looks great in action, but gets most of its mileage out of its persistent online campaign, which can be very fun for dedicated players.
Compare PricesWith its lengthy single-player campaign, well-integrated multiplayer, and full-featured level editor, Titan Quest is a robust package that nonetheless feels all too familiar.
Compare PricesIf you’re an avid soccer fan (enough of a fan to refer to the game as football), and follow European leagues, Football Manager offers an excellent way to try your hand at the ‘other’ side of the sport.
For an old game, Mega Man Maverick Hunter X holds up well. But take note -- old game also means old school, so prepare for a challenge.
Compare PricesFull Auto is a neat idea, but unfortunately it's just one neat idea, stretched across the entire game. And that wears thin pretty quickly.
This first-person action game hits you like a sledgehammer with its astounding, stunningly creepy presentation, but it sacrifices opportunities for more shocks and surprises by settling for repetition.
The Outfit's aim for a bold blend of action and strategy gets sabotaged by a repetitious single-player campaign, but it is redeemed somewhat by a more-inspired multiplayer.
Onimusha: Dawn of Dreams is the fourth game in the long running series about ancient Japanese warriors kicking ancient Japanese demon arse.
Make life hell for thousands of hapless enemy soldiers with Devil Kings, a new fast-paced beat-em-up reminiscent of the Dynasty Warriors series.
Compare PricesWWE SmackDown! vs Raw 2006 is an impressive overall package. The wrestling mechanics have been tweaked to near perfection, and the game’s many modes means plenty of play hours for fans.
