I'm playing
Castle Crashers (Xbox 360)
Castle Crashers has a lot of character but not much else, with grind-tastic gameplay that's wafer-thin and repetitive. This game comes nowhere close to justifying its hefty asking price.
Mercenaries 2: World in Flames (Xbox 360)
Mercs 2 has many shortcomings; dialogue repeats annoyingly fast, vehicle handling is twitchy, and missions aren't involving enough to really grip you.
Call of Duty 3 (Xbox 360)
Another year, another WWII shooter - but this year's model includes enhanced online play and tweaked gameplay.
GRID (DS)
While it's not a huge upgrade from its fairly recent predecessor, Race Driver: GRID is an excellent racing game fans of the genre should definitely check out.
King Kong: The Official Game of the Movie (Xbox 360)
Addictive, tense adventuring as man and ape, with pitch-perfect design and gorgeous graphics.
I've Beaten
The Orange Box (Xbox 360)
The Orange Box has five big sections - Half-Life 2: Episode Two, Team Fortress 2, Portal, Half-Life 2, and Half-Life 2: Episode One - and they're juicy, delicious, and priced to ...
Guitar Hero III: Legends of Rock (Xbox 360)
When you actually get to bust out a Rage Against the Machine song by Rage themselves, there's nothing like it. It's another step in air-guitar fantasy fulfillment.
Collecting Dust
Battlefield 2 Modern Combat (Xbox 360)
Unleash a scathing barrage of metal with over 30 vehicles ... or your own bad soldiering self.
Madden NFL 08 (Xbox 360)
There's nothing quite like going high for a concussive knockout or low to ruin a knee or two.
Crackdown (Xbox 360)
Take control of a futuristic vigilante and rid your city of the criminal element. With guns, explosives, stunt cars and superhuman powers, "by any means necessary" should be implied.
