Reviews

  • Drawn to Life: The Next Chapter

    Despite its originality and charm, Drawn to Life: The Next Chapter is a mediocre platforming game.

  • Fight Night Round 4

    Though definitely an improvement over its predecessor, this boxing game isn't without a few problems.

  • Left 4 Dead 2

    With exciting new content across the board and plenty of it, Left 4 Dead 2 outdoes its predecessor and makes the zombie apocalypse an absolute blast.

  • Cars Race-O-Rama

    Cars Race-O-Rama is a terribly generic racer aimed at the younger crowd. It's neither great nor awful, just absolutely middle-of-the-road gaming.

  • Assassin's Creed II

    Assassin's Creed II is what you'd want an action sequel to be: bigger, better and more beautiful.

  • Ninja Blade

    This derivative action game is a bunch of silly, stylish fun.

  • Lego Rock Band

    This charming rhythm game is especially good for first-timers, but it's a little light on content.

  • Punch-Out!!

    Punch-Out for the Wii isn't much different from the NES version, but it hardly matters when it's this much fun.
