I Want
Okamiden (DS)

A spin-off to the quintessential "underappreciated gem," this Okami side-story features a puppy-sized version of the dog god and the child of two of the main characters in the first ...

World of Goo (Wii)
A delightfully weird and endlessly inventive puzzle/construction game involving millions of oblivious - and apparently, tasty - Goo Balls.
Muramasa: The Demon Blade (Wii)

Featuring lovely hand-drawn 2D art, Muramasa transports players into a little known mythology envisioned by the creators of Odin Sphere. Take on the role of a male ninja or female ...

The Last Guardian (PS3)

The spiritual successor to Team ICO's Shadow of the Colossus sees a young boy team up with a Griffin-like creature in a charming adventure game.

Condemned: Criminal Origins (Xbox 360)
Rarely does a survival horror game frighten you on so many levels.
I'm playing
Dead Space 2 (Xbox 360)

Keeping almost everything that made the original great while taking suitable steps to amp up the fun, Dead Space 2 will please both the series’ fans and those just starting ...

Gears of War 3 (Xbox 360)

The Gears of War trilogy ends in epic style, as Marcus Fenix and fellow roid rage chums take on alien evil doers in new jungle and underwater sections. The Locust ...

I've Beaten
Naruto Shippuden: Ultimate Ninja Storm 2 (PS3)

Ironically the first Ultimate Ninja Storm was the better game by a mile. Not just because it started the story off at a point where anybody could jump in, but ...

Chibi Robo (GameCube)
Frog costumes, toothbrush mops and teddy bear stickers: Chibi-Robo's sweet flavor is enough to give you diabetes
Worms: Open Warfare (DS)
More wormy, back-and-forth, artillery shenanigans. Blasting buddies in four-player matches is a riot, but the schizo AI and lack of online play bring the whole thing down.
The Darkness (PS3)
Spew demons and bullets as you kill your way through mob families and possibly hell itself in your quest for karmic redemption.
Super Mario Galaxy (Wii)
Mario's first appearance on Wii launches him into outer space, where you tilt, bob and shake him across spinning globes in Mario 64 fashion.
The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time - Virtual Console (Wii)
This was a near perfect game in 1998, worthy of the highest praise. But today, after the advancements of Wind Waker and Twilight Princess, Ocarina feels like a stepping stone.
Collecting Dust
Wario: Master of Disguise (DS)
The controls really detract from what might have been a worthy successor to Wario's Game Boy outings.
Naruto: Ultimate Ninja 2 (PS2)
The same rapid-tap fighting we liked in the first game - packed with new game modes and sixteen areas in which to pound more than thirty playable characters.
Wii Music (Wii)
Control a six-person band using the remote and nunchuk, and bring along three friends for a collaborative experience.
Sonic Riders (GameCube)
Straightforward and arcadey to the core, Riders offers a lot of Sonic fan service but is just too busted for anyone else.

The Darkness (PS3)
Spew demons and bullets as you kill your way through mob families and possibly hell itself in your quest for karmic redemption.
Naruto: Clash of Ninja 2 (GameCube)
The second bout of ninja-kid fighting comes to the US this fall - now with four-player fights and even more anime goodness.
Sonic Riders: Zero Gravity (Wii)
With or without gravity this Sonic racer is finishing in a less than average place.
Resident Evil: The Umbrella Chronicles (Wii)
A mere ghost of the fear we felt in Resident Evils of years gone by, but a pleasant way to fill in plenty of plot holes.
Naruto: Clash of Ninja Revolution (Wii)
The new stuff isn't all that great and what's here has been done twice before. That said, this is still one of the best Wii fighting games available.
