A Friend To The Youth Audience, But A Foe To The Adult Audience... by ace3502 Pros: Non violence, simple for young players
Cons: Lack of challenge in gameplay, very short, sometimes too simple I'm writing this review in two ways. One is as an adult/young adult audience player (say above the age of 15) and one is as a youth audience player. I didn't want to rate it highly as an youth player and have the adult audience thinking it was a decent ...

The Education of Ezio Auditore - Assassin's Creed II by awoolcott Pros: They took Assassin's Creed, and made it awesome
Cons: Sometimes the free-running is too free for its own good The original Assassin's Creed was an ambitious concept, and while the end result was a solid game with a unique catch and enjoyable “parkour-style” gameplay, it tended to be grossly repetitive after a while and the collectathon side-quests were nearly ...

There's nothing like slashing through the Chinese and Japanese armies on a horse by xenoranger Pros: Easy to play
90 unique characters Hours of play Smooth 2-player Cons: Chaos mode is insane There's nothing like riding a horse through legions of Chinese foot soldiers while beating them down with a spear. Of course, fans of the Dynasty Warriors (DW) series are used to this type of play. The story starts with the Serpent King ...

What Super Mario Brothers game is NUMBER 1? by bigtruckseries Pros: innovative multiplayer gameplay
Cons: No classic controller support; Difficulty Ramps up Fast I’m not sure which Mario game is my favorite. Perhaps its Mario 2 or Mario 3. Super Mario 2 was a tremendous tangent from the gameplay established in Super Mario Brothers (based on the Japanese game “Doki Doki ...

Refried Brains by bigtruckseries Pros: Fun if you never played the original or if you're a die hard fan.
Cons: High difficulty and no help from the computer. "Been there, done that" A year ago, I wrote a review about how much I loved Left 4 Dead – a game where you play as a zombie apocalypse survivor trying to make their way to a rescue zone to escape the undead hordes. ...

Shoot and loot by GregRadiohead Pros: An addictive mix of Diablo and FPS
Cons: Not as creative or original as it could be; technical and gameplay balance issues A good chunk of the way into Borderlands, you get a quest to go kill some kind of fearsome creature called Slither. Judging by the name, you expect to find some kind of huge insectoid or reptilian enemy awaiting you in an epic boss battle. Instead, you ...

Guns and Cars and Automatic Weapons, oh my! by harley4u Pros: Shadow the Hedgehog. All those weapons. So DARK. Replay value.
Cons: The pros could as easily be your cons. The camera could use work. First off, I love Shadow the Main Character. I mean, everybody loves angsty badasses. They're hot. And this game is cool.But let's get started with the truth. Which is that many people love this game for the same reason that they hate it. This ...

"Dead or Alive Ultimate" DOA 1 And 2 Revamped. by Pandemonium Pros: Excellent graphics, tons of modes to play, fast-paced, good collection of characters.

The Dead Or Alive (DOA) series was introduced to the Xbox in 2001 and this duel pack Ultimate features the first two games in one. If you are not familiar with the series, these are fighting games like a Mortal Combat, Tekken, or Soul Calibur. 1-1 ...

Tiger Woods PGA Tour 10 for the PS3 by phungus Pros: Nice graphics, very realistic
Cons: Tough at times, rude commentary I have played golf twice in my life, and I certainly don't consider myself a golfer even though I do like to go out to the driving range every now and then. I do, however, consider myself a video gamer and sometimes I like to play sports games. Tiger ...

Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2 Cheats Faq ( COD MW 2 Cheats Faq) by skyth Pros: best fps ever
Cons: chat sucks Counter strike (CS) was a phenomenon that no other FPS (first person shooter) to this day had ever reproduced. Built by a bunch of lunatic developers, it was a mod to the half-life engine. Remember the mods to Doom 3D that included ...

Don't Hate the Drake -- Uncharted 2 is a Masterpiece by onionhead2001 Pros: A groundbreaking, gorgeous title with the most amazing action sequences you've ever experienced.
Cons: The platforming wears thin eventually. The first Uncharted has long been considered one of the best reasons to have a PS3. After playing the original, I never really understood the hype. Sure, it was pretty to look at and well-acted, but the game just seemed like a never-ending ...

Lego Batman: Better Than The Sum Of All Parts by livewire_13 Pros: family friendly, simple, direct
Cons: some objectives not clearly marked out In a world of ultra-violent, high-tech, gimmicky video games based more on profits than substance, Lego Batman is a refreshing change of pace. Don't pay too much credence to the list of reviews with average grades, this game can be a solid piece in any ...
