You know you're doomed when the game starts its life as a mobile phone game. Kingdom Hearts Re:coded is a baffling adventure with a sub-par story, horrible pacing, lack-luster multiplayer support, disappointing levels and the worst camera system I've ever used. Not even the modern combat mechanics are enough to make me recommend this mediocre remake!

Prinny 2 has the makings of another great side-scrolling action game, but is marred by crummy controls and overly difficult level designs. The incredible boss battles aren't enough to keep this light-hearted sequel from being the first big disappointment of 2011!

Mindjack is one of those games that brings unique ideas to the table but ultimately fails in overall execution. Repetition, a broken cover system, a weak story, and other problems should keep this game from jacking any of your hard-earned money. The option of "jacking" into non-player characters for strategic or life-saving purposes sure sounds like a good thing, and the idea of seamless transitions from solo to multiplayer gameplay can make for enjoyable skirmishes or unexpected assistance during a campaign. The world of Mindjack is reminiscent of Tron, with sleek vehicles, huge mechs, and sleek towers of glass and steel. Unfortunately, the repetitive and hollow gameplay experience that Mindjack offers quickly cancels out and actually overtakes many of the game's positive traits.

If you're a dedicated Dragon Ball fan, look no further than Raging Blast 2 for your fanservice. It recreates the anime's battles with loving devotion and has a wealth of bonus material, but the button-mashing and requirements for unlocking the extensive roster might turn off fighting games connoisseurs who don't happen to be DBZ fanatics.

Chuck Greene and Frank West are back and ready to pair up in the final action game of 2010. Dead Rising 2: Case West is a fun game, but the dull setting and lack of shopping makes this my least favorite installment yet. Fans of the series will get a kick out of seeing some familiar faces, while everybody else will scratch their head wondering why there were three Dead Rising games in one year!

If Splatterhouse has caught your interest you should give it a rent. It's a solid action game with an interesting story and a lot of blood. There's enough content to justify a purchase, if you like the series. If you've never heard of Splatterhouse until now, give it a try before you buy and please DO NOT purchase this game for a child.

With repetitive puzzles and truly horrible platforming elements, Jekyll & Hyde fails to deliver on both sides of the coin.
