Moon - DS

Pros Cons
Tight controls  
Amazing visuals  
Engaging story  
Part FPS, part Adventure, All Good

Moon is more a fast paced adventure with lots of gun combat then a true Quake/Doom/Half-life FPS. I think that's a good thing.

Here's what I like

- Works with the platform. Its hard to make a fun FPS on DS but Renegade Kid did it. And the chapter system makes it easy to play for 20 minutes at a time on the bus.

- Lots of action. Yea, its an adventure but there is plenty of gun fighting, plenty of enemies.

- The story is cool, and you bond with the droid (at least I did)

- Easy to play. Learning curve is like 10 minutes. Hard to beat, but at least you feel like you are playing against the enemies, not the game controls.

Weaknesses
- Some of the enemies are reused
- You mostly shoot aliens and robots, so if you want to kill zombies you'll be disappointed (though there is a brief zombie guest appearance)

Summary
If you have a DS and you like action/FPS games pick this up... you'll be glad you did.

Metroid Prime 3: Corruption - Wii

Wii Legend

The title of my review itself is sorta' self-explanatory. I believe that Metroid Prime 3 is certainly the best in the trilogy, and will go down in gaming history. Actually, I can't even think of a Metroid game in the entire series that's better than Metroid Prime 3. What makes this game superior is it's amazing visuals/art, story, and mostly how the game utilizes the Wii's various features; (sensor bar, nunchuck, Wiiconnect 24 etc. I can't seem to find any flaws with the game at all. If you disagree, please, leave a comment.

Patapon - PSP

Pros Cons
Addictive gameplay Not enough content
If you don't have Patapon...

If you don't have patapon, or even a PSP, go to the store and get one and spend 20$ on patapon!!!!! If you aren't willing to spend about 225$, go crawl into a dark corner, and sit there for an hour.

What a WWII Experience!

After I heard that COD5 would return to the milked-dry landscapes of WWII, I began to fear that they were leading the series back into the boring world that has been done before. But after I played COD5, I am proud to say that they took a dying genre (WWII) and gave it new life, creating one of the best shooter games of the year. Not only did they make WWII fun again, they took what they did best with COD4 and sucessfuly made it work once again. But the single player mode is only the half of it, for the online experience will BLOW YOU AWAY AGAIN! Nothing makes my day more than owning over 300 Nazi zombies and surviving 16 rounds in the Zombie mode with three friends and our "little friends". Thank you for making such a wonderful game.

An awsome sonic game with flaws

I was absolutly hyped for this game. The E3 Beastly tralier just blew me away. It was like your parent returning after a 1 year holiday. And it met my expectations. This is probably THE best Sonic game since Sonic Adventure 2 on the Dreamcast (Note I haven't played th Gamecube remake of SA2.) The game has a good, engainging story and it's one of the best storylines in a Sonic game. The controls are spot on, the graphics look like something off a 360 and PS3 game. The music is just awsome. If you're a fan of Beat 'em Up's like Streets of Rage, Final Fight, etc the werehog will probably make you have fun. The daytime levels are what a Sonic game should be. The nightime levels are preey fun when you overlookthe slow speed. Othough if you did have lots of speed some parts would be REALLY hard to get past. But the enimes in the Sonic levels hardly kill Sonic. 5/5

save me Link, save me...............

This game is FUN! I love how long the game is and how interesting the story is. I guess the only thing that I did not like about the game was that sometimes I was just like, "What the heck am I supposed to do now??" Sometimes this game was just so confusing I had to look up a walkthrough on ign.com. If I didn't use the walkthrough it would take me forever to figure out what to do. The feature I like best about this game was the feature that allowed you to hook up your GBA or GBA SP to the Gamecube and help the person point on things while your friend plays the Gamecube and you play your GBA.

Re4's story is Indeed very entertaining

This is for Dirk2930 or whatever his name is. Re4's story is not boring! It is very entertaining. At first I thought the story was stupid because it sounded classic. President's daughter gets kidnapped and you have to save her. Sound Familiar? Well, how I was wrong. Re4 has one of the most engaging storyline in any game I played. There are a lot good story elements and also other information (I'm bad at writing. Only 10. Don't know what to call additional information. Shut up.) such as the origins of the monsters you face and the main bad guys of the game, the Los Illumanadoes.
I can't deny that Ashley (the president's daughter) is a pain and the enemies have bad A.I. but the game is still pretty scary. When I first started playing, it took me 1 day to finish the first part of the village cause I was too scared to go on. After the first time, I admit things are a lot less scarier but it is still pretty scary with the gloomy environment and people popping out at you. The game should take an average of 10 hours, not 10-15 like my friend Dirk or whatever mentioned.
Overall, great game, must have for $20. Rate 4.75 (not 4 like Dirk rated but a Editor's Choice) And not 5 like above.
