Halo 3 was a bit of a letdown for me. I played it more than most other games don't get me wrong. However it felt more like Halo 2.5 than a true sequel.
Halo: Reach however goes back to what made the original game so great, but with some of the more modern touches of Halo 2 and Halo 3. It's probably my favorite Halo when it comes to the campaign mode.
I also liked the optional powers as well like jet pack, decoys, and shielding. Gave both the single player and multiplayer modes some variety. Also another way to either unbalance or balance the playing field in multiplayer. Which could go either good or bad.
The only part I didn't care for was the ship combat in the campaign. It was kinda boring, and it sure wasn't no Starfox 64.
As I said before the multiplayer was just as awesome as the games before it. Really need to get back into the game, I bet they probably have some more maps by now.

Pac-man has been rehashed so many times over the years it's a bit ridiculous. However this was one gimmick I actually liked.
It's basically Pac-man but with upgraded graphics, cool graphical effects, new music, with different speed and game-play touches.
It plays pretty well, I just wish companies would do this more often.

The Wii won't get left too far behind when the 3rd game hits PS3 and 360. I'd rather wait for the Wii U version if they make it.

It was a freebie from Microsoft, however unlike most free stuff this was pretty good.
It was a nice little puzzle game. Not exactly the greatest in the world but I enjoyed my time with it.

Such a great idea, Street Fighter II remastered in HD!
It's certainly that, the graphics looked sick!
Even though I think it's tad too hard in single player, it's still a great little game.

The show was okay but I liked the free Xbox Live Arcade game.
It let "everyone" play at the same time, and sorta did.
However you will never be picked to be the player. Especially since they cut the game off forever.

Resident Evil: Code Veronica and Resident Evil 4 HD Remakes to Cost $20 Each

That's way too much for Code Veronica.
Now if they were a double pack for $30 that'd be a nicer deal.
I got this one real cheap at Gamestop. I thought it might be a decent buy.
It's mainly a basic hack-and-slash game with custom characters and stuff.
However despite the semi-cool looking screen here, it's really not that fun. Very boring and mundane.

It's basically what is sounds like. The infamous card game UNO in Xbox Live Arcade form. You can find other versions for PS3, Wii, iPod Touch, iPhone, DSi and practically every other system made in the past five years.
It plays well with very little bullshit, and the online play work nice. It's really cool that it's a very social game. Most of the people who play do bring a headset along.
I don't mean the guys who RAGE on Xbox Live either. You'll find your fair share of jerks on the game for sure, but this is one game where most players aren't rude.
For the lonely guys, plenty of women play UNO on 360 as well.
The old game Double Dragon II: The Revenge is coming to Xbox Live Arcade in a new remake called Double Dragon II: Wander of the Dragons. A new combo system is in the works, and new artwork as well. It will come out with the price tag of $15.

I got this one for a few bucks, and I wasn't very impressed.
It's an okay tennis game, but there's little to keep your entertained.
Even the little mini-games and extra modes are kinda lame.

I really liked the PS2 games, so I thought the Xbox 360 sequel would be pretty sweet.
It's by no means a "bad game", but I just hate how dissapointing it was to me. I didn't like the "new" liberty city, the story was uninteresting, characters were stupid, and I didn't like the changes to the combat or driving.
Plus the massive rampages weren't that fun anymore. Really the first GTA I played that I didn't enjoy countless hours with.

Simpsons games can be rather hit or miss, but the most recent one was pretty damn good.
It definitively taps into the show's most memorable moments, but in a rather crazy way. Crazy, but a very good kind of crazy.
It also taps into other games too. From Japanese games to some of EA's own. My favorite are the Homer levels.
There all pretty good except Marge's mob stages. Marge sucks anyway so let's not act surprised.
One of my favorite moments was when Homer and Lisa went into crazy Japanese Anime/RPG land. Plus the whole game had great cut-scenes to watch.

It's a classic, and even though it's not the greatest game in the world I really think this was the starting point where games got from experimental to "good".
My favorite version is the Xbox Live Arcade one since I loved trying to get all the achievements.

The new system looks just like our favorite droid, and makes sounds just like the little robot. There is even a message that says "Help me Obi-wan Kenobi, you're my only hope." Me want!

I played this back when I first got a 360. Why you ask? Because it was basically the only free game on Xbox Live Arcade.
I don't like games like Gradius, so frankly my expectations weren't high.
And I was right. It is a boring, and hard side-scrolling shooter.
Rumors hit recently and now the game is confirmed for 360 and PS3 coming this fall.
Looks pretty good.

Screenshots look pretty legit. Nothing confirmed so far.

Man the Turok series and I don't seem to get along too well. I bought this in the hope that the series was had one bad mistake with Evolution. Not so much.
Now I hate the reboot in different ways than my hate for Evolution. The graphics, sound, plot, etc are all well produced in this game. However there's really nothing to keep you on for the ride.
Despite the cool looking Dinosaurs, I could not help myself from being bored to tears or frustrated with parts of the game. This series needs to go extinct.
