Crackdown<\/span>
\nOkay to look at, fun to play for a little while, great for people who enjoyed GTA. 9\/11 Truthers will love the ham fisted twist ending. Not much of a story. None of the main characters are very pleasant to look at. Best part of the game: the narrator talking in to your ear, giving you tutorials and snarky comments. I.E., if you die, he’ll say, very nonchalant, "Aw, well," stressing how disposable your character is. Fun for two days.<\/p>\n

Fight Night Round 3<\/span>
\nGreat game, really stresses how emotionally invested people can become in a videogame. Crappy character creation system and tedious training simulators are made up for with great gameplay, and how suprisingly heart breaking it is when your character gets knocked out. Worth playing just to hear "Down goes Frazier" – when you’re the one who took him down.<\/p>\n


\nTouch\u00e9, Niles.<\/span><\/p>\n

Over G Fighters<\/span>
\nHorrible Japanese game turned into an even more horrible American game. The Ace Combat series does what this game tried to do, but the difference is that Ace Combat does it well. A bizarre jet fighter sim that touches on every single overdone Japanese cinema cliche – global warming, nuclear proliferation, population growth. Ugh.<\/p>\n

WWE Smackdown Vs. Raw 2007<\/span>
\nWow, could I care less about this game. The writing is poor, the gameplay is weak, and the attitude is more strictly self promotional rather than fun or witty. The graphics are okay and the create a character mode is fun, but this otherwise hulking P.O.S. might as well be subtitled "WWE 2007: Now Loading Vs. Now Saving," because you’re going to be seeing those two screens a lot more often than actual gameplay. I long for the day when a wrestling game is made for one console exclusively, because you can really taste the dingleberries left over from the PS2 version. If you’re a hardcore WWE fan, maybe you’ll still be able to fwap to this, but I prefer Rumble Roses XX.<\/p>\n
