Hunted: The Demon’s Forge tries to hybridize fantasy dungeon crawling and cover based shooting, but the mix isn’t exactly elegant. There are a few glimmers of charm but the frustrating combat and linear, generic environments made it hard to stay interested.

Call of Juarez: The Cartel is a hodgepodge of bad ideas and performance issues. Even if you can get past the technical problems, this heavy-handed action game never quite lives up to its potential. If you have a couple friends to play with you might get some fun out of it, everybody else might want to look elsewhere for their first-person fix!

An obvious console port, this watered-down action RPG just doesn't feel at home on the PC.

Kill Team is an absolute blast to play. It’s a no-frills action shooter from start to finish with a focus on purely destroying everything in sight. It’s just too bad that they decided to leave out online coop because that could have made a good game great.

Shadows of the Damned, despite some interesting ideas and intense action, falls victim to poor game design in the second half of the experience. Frustrating turret levels, going back to the 2D well one too many times, and puzzles that literally halt the game's pacing all mar what could have been a great game.

There are still a couple of features that need to be tweaked, such as recruiting, but with the addition of custom playbooks, the coaching carousel, conference realignments, and a fully revamped Road to Glory mode, NCAA Football has shown great strides in the last couple of titles, and NCAA Football 12 is the result of a development team putting in some hard work to make the fans happy.

The First Templar is a game that is just barely better than the sum of its parts. There is nothing that makes it a must-have title, but it isn't terrible either. The combat is fun, the atmosphere is nice, and every level has a wealth of secrets waiting to be discovered. However, these positives are nearly obliterated by the dull story, bland voice acting, poor sound mixing, and dated graphics. In the end, it's an obviously low-budget game that lives up to the lowered expectations you must entertain in order to enjoy it.

MX vs. ATV Alive is one of the best racing games I've played in a while, and is actually a racing game I'm somewhat decent at. The Rider Reflex System didn't take that long to get used to and if you have issues controlling the vehicle, you can always go into a free roam area to practice (and get some small XP). The only thing that makes me rate this game the way I did was the unlock system. If it was based on race performance and not ludicrous amounts of XP, I'd definitely rate the game higher.

Super Street Fighter IV: Arcade Edition offers enough new content to warrant the fifteen dollars. But even with four new characters and some exciting online modes, I still wish there was more to this expansion pack. Die-hard fans will love it, but I suspect most people are ready to move on to the next Street Fighter game!

Even if you can get past the terrible graphics, lame story, horrible gameplay, bad level designs, outdated mechanics, cringe-worthy one-liners, bare bones multiplayer and abysmal mini-games, Duke Nukem Forever would still be a terrible game. Factor in the long list of performance issues and this becomes one of the worst games of all time!

Originally, I had this game pegged a little higher on the grading scale, enjoying the combat that it offered. However, with a plot that really isn't exciting, quests that can bore you to tears, and problems with simple things such as camera angles, maps, and character development, it just falls short of a title that is truly worth having. For fifteen dollars, there are better titles out there to download. Daggerdale will certainly give fans of repetitive combat what they look for, but little else.

While I didn't enjoy it as much as the first game, Red Faction Armageddon is still worth picking up if only to play with the big box of explosive toys. There are a few great gaming moments in the game but they are held back by a few generic ones.

Persona 3 Portable would have been a great game even if it was nothing more than a straight port of the PlayStation 2 game, but instead Atlus added enough new content to make this the first must-own PSP RPG of the year!
