...Mario Super Sluggers (MSS) is an arcade-style game similar to the previous entries in the Mario sports series. Gamers looking for a deep simulation-influenced baseball game should keep on looking. Gamers looking for a revolutionary, over-the-top baseball game that is brimming with tons of innovative and unique idea need to keep on looking as well. But if want a baseball title to sit back and play with your friends that is still loads of fun then MSS should fit the bill nicely. Remember not every game has to be a blockbuster for you to still have fun...
...Mario Super Slugger really is a game that will probably find more people playing the Exhibition mode simply because that is the true baseball portion of the game. The Mario theme of the game, special Star hits/pitches and Error Items do make for a fun filled baseball experience. The simplified controls should allow for almost anyone young or old to get into the game as well. Yet the main part of the game, the challenge mode, does feel rather flat simply because it feels like an overblown training...

Xbox360: Over G Fighters review Online Games, July 26, 2006...The lure of a dogfighting game is immediate and powerful. Who does not want to blast through the skies in a blazing warbird armed to the teeth with missiles, guns and bombs, raining fiery hell upon evil foreign planes who dared to enter our beloved random airspace uninvited? Who does not want to outmaneuver enemy Migs like a pre-loco Tom Cruise, sweaty wife beater sticking to the leather as you pull out all kinds of fancy dives and inverted fingers to the delight of gruff American steelworkers and gay men everywhere? Who does not want to fly planes, kick ass, rock hard, fly more planes and rock more hard? ...

www.gamerevolution.comNeed for Speed ProStreet Review (PSP) Online Games, February 29, 2008It has been a little over three months since Need for Speed ProStreet hit consoles, and now it has finally made its way to the PlayStation Portable. Sort of. The only thing the two versions have in common is their name. The PSP incarnation, unfortunately...
...ProStreet is light on game modes. You can play a quick race, start a career, or play wirelessly via ad hoc or online. We were never able to find more than three people online at a time, and none of them ever wanted to play. Career mode contains the bulk of what little value the game has...
++Good: 32 different cars. Cars show and react to damage.
--Bad: Career mode is nothing more than a succession of races. Controls are terrible. Extremely poor sense of speed. Race types are nothing special.

www.gamespot.comSims 2 bringing home Pets? Online Games, May 13, 2006What we heard: The
Sims franchise has proved to be a monumental success. The life simulator has been a dominant force on the PC gaming charts since it took the leap from the mind of Maxis Studios head Will Wright onto retail shelves in 2000.
Though Wright wasn't at E3 pimping out some Sims-related gear, Electronic Arts was. Near the area housing Wright's PC game Spore, EA built a 360-degree trailer theater that showed a plethora of games from the publisher, including the lineup from Superman Returns: The Videogame, Battlefield 2142, and Medal of Honor: Airborne.
It wasn't all bullets and fighting, though. Stuck in the middle of the trailer were some cute and cuddly animals--and not the one-eyed freaks of nature of Spore. The familiar cybercitizens of The
Sims 2 were shown hanging around in parks and playing with something they haven't been able to since the original
The Sims game--pets...
