Saints Row 2 rappresenta un pantagruelico pranzo per gli affamati del freeroaming urbano di nuova generazione, nonostante alcune scelte stilistiche e deficienze tecniche lascino l’amaro in bocca per una produzione che poteva ambire a vette più elevate nel panorama videoludico odierno. I passi in avanti nell’IA, l’introduzione di nuovi veicoli, modalità, personaggi esilaranti e situazioni giovano non poco all’impalcatura di un’opera che si è distinta sin dagli esordi come clone di GTA per eccellenza, garantendo un’esperienza di gioco ancor più variegata e spensierata di prima, della quale rimarrete sicuramente soddisfatti se non cercate il perfezionismo artistico o la cura per il dettaglio (tecnico) mostrata dalle produzioni moderne più avanzate. Divertente, grosso e grasso.

With spectacular presentation, highly entertaining Robot Wars style multiplayer and a lot of good hearted humour, the bear and bird are back. Comeback accomplished.

Namco Museum Virtual Arcade is an impressive release from Namco Bandai that could have been even better. There is a lot of fun to be had here for the low price of $29.99. If you don’t have any of these games and would like to experience them, it’s a great buy. There may be problems with the controls and the load times, but there are so many good games in here for the price that they don’t detract from the game.

Age of Booty is more than just a very simple real-time strategy game, it's also an addictive multiplayer game that will keep you (and your friends) busy for months to come. The game could have used a little more variety, but this $10 game proves to be yet another great game from Capcom!

If you love games like Order Up! or even (on some level) The SIms, you might find Home Sweet Home interesting for a few short-lived minutes, but if you fancy yourself a hardcore gamer you will loath this title. Any way you slice it, this is not a game worthy of 1,000 Wii Points -- half that would be pushing it, as far as I'm concerned. Supposing you really want to decorate some rooms, go online and tool around with the thousands of websites that enable you to do this with real furniture. Or wait for PS3's Home Network, which will let you walk around your IKEA-inspired virtual apartment.

The only redeeming quality I could point out regarding Make the Grade is that it, at the very least, functions properly and doesn't seem to crash. That's about it. I'm not even sure I could recommend this game to hardcore fans of the TV show, but I will admit that getting a bunch of people together to laugh at the game is fun enough. Watching the fifth grade girl get denied a high five was certainly the highlight of my time with Make the Grade. Hopefully that tells you all you need to know.

And it's a shame too, as there are some great ideas happening within the package. The Wii version, for example, is the only one to offer split-screen multiplayer, and while you still have online options (albeit very simple, and nothing compared to what we expect from Treyarch's upcoming World at War Wii) the option of doing local play with a few friends was added specifically for Wii, and it holds up relatively well on a technical basis. Even online, which we mentioned was very simple, runs relatively well, and is an area of the game where things work by design, and could have been fleshed out much more for a larger audience. Then again, we'll be getting what sounds like a pretty impressive Call of Duty online product from Treyarch, so since Bond was limited to you and a couple other cronies running around a few levels with only two main modes, hopefully that's just a taste of what's to come in just a couple weeks. You've also got a control setup for the zapper, IR-based interactive sequences, and Mii integration for online and local profile management. It's obvious there were ideas at work here, but the overall tech crippled the game in a big way, partially due we're sure to the fact that it was developed in tandem between multiple consoles, and multiple teams, all using the same design. Even the control options, which attempted to include pre-sets, as well as a bounding box editor for specific control tweaking just didn't end up working like it should have in the final version, with the end result a half-functional, rushed effort that we're sure could have been impressive with enough time to get everything working. Even Treyarch's Call of Duty 3 controls better than Quantum of Solace, and Bond isn't a launch game like COD3 was. We've played and reviewed lots of "bad" games on Wii, but unlike those before it Quantum of Solace feels like a title that has a real soul to it, and somewhere in the mess of unprecedented frame issues, visual bugs, and sloppy port code is a game that really could have been a blast to play. Instead, it's one you want to avoid at all costs, as Bond's first Wii effort doesn't deliver over some of Activision's previous (and upcoming) efforts on Wii.
