A masterpiece on so many different levels, and this review is barely able to convey my sheer respect for this game.

It's refreshing to play a title that is both old school in its gameplay, but new school in its storytelling.

This is very nearly the perfect game. This game is as close to 100% as I've ever seen.

Super Mario Galaxy 2 is a tremendous game and definitely the best one on the Wii.

It will go down in gaming history as a classic that defined its generation.

Not only is Snake Eater a triumphant return to the PS2, it's perhaps the best installment of the franchise to date. The inclusion of camouflage and greater attention to hand to hand combat via the CQC system are great additions to gameplay.

It's a beautiful game with fantastic design and writing that's a little short but delivers boatloads of action in what time you do end up playing.

Visually, Vice City is truly amazing, portraying a living, breathing city with unbelievable depth. Every building, from the lowliest storefront to the largest skyscraper, seems to have its own history, personality and flavor.

One of the darkest, angriest, most action packed adventure platformer ever. The result is a game that literally turns the stereotypical revenge story upside down, with a complex plot, an expansive setting and an anti-hero that you'll love and hate at the same time... I can't even explain how beautiful this game is.

Thanks to the sheer level of detail and the amount of gameplay you'll be able to engage in during C.J.'s adventures, San Andreas surpasses just about any game that's come along in the PS2's history.

A phenomenal game.

I can't stress how many risks needed to be taken to make a title like this, but it is extremely successful at every single one. If you own a PS2, you owe it to yourself to get this title.

Gears of War 2 delivers on every one of its promises, combining a rich and intimate story, brutal, visceral combat, incredible graphics, outstanding audio design, a strong soundtrack, and a robust multiplayer suite.

The only possible flaw I can really find with it is that it is over relatively quickly - it took me about six hours to beat it. However, in that time, LIMBO delivered an incredible experience from beginning to end, had no filler, and provided more memorable moments in that short time than many games of a far greater length.

I started playing Halo early one afternoon. Several hours in, I figured I should probably take a break to get a bite to eat, so I said to myself, "I'll just finish this one level first". Suffice to say, I never did get around to eating much that day.

Stunningly-stupendous, amazingly-brilliant.

I strongly recommend this game. It is the best, most enjoyable and most addictive game I have seen in 19 years.

Everything in the game is utter perfection. Whether you're in it for the single player quest or the online extravaganza Unreal Tournament doesn't have what you need -- IT IS what you need.

Every environment is created with jaw dropping detail that makes every single one a visual feast. I spent a good amount of time just looking at the surroundings trying to take everything in.

Most impressive of all is the obvious care and planning put into the maps, which are large without being cavernous, and intricate without being overly confusing (though I've got to say that it's a good thing that they've included vehicles, because some maps would involve a lot of long walks if you couldn't steal a vehicle somewhere).

Square's unique story telling ability and their magic to completely immerse us into a world of fantasy and awe gives this game the power to bring a grown man to tears and a crazed gamer to fall in love.

A worthy successor to Fallout 1, and for those who loved the original they're in for a whole new experience.

Oblivion is by far the closest I have come to playing D&D Sunday afternoons with my friends (yes, I did that, though I'm on medication now), all wrapped up in a stunning package with tens of thousands of lines of spoken dialog and good music.

It's short, at about 8 hours in length, and the last level and a half seems abrupt. I still feel like there's a rail sequence missing when the squad tears away from the mansion in the APC... It also doesn't necessarily take the third-person shooter to new heights. What it does, however, is present one of the best looking and sounding games whose gameplay is as polished as it gets, with intense shootouts, exciting boss battles, and sleep-depriving online play.

It simply combines the best parts of Halo (wide-open, diverse environments) and Halo 2 (dual wielding weaponry), and throws a few new weapons, vehicles and enemies to the mix. The result is a thrilling and ultimately satisfying conclusion to the trilogy.

The controls are perfect, the visuals are stunning and the action is just as thrilling as its PS2 brethren.

No battlefield is ever the same, because the permutations of capabilities across all the players in a given game are just astronomical, and making choices that fit your play style is crucial.

Seldom do games combine top notch single player and multiplayer experiences, but truly Call of Duty 4 has done just that.
