The ability to analyze your own music and wrap the gameplay around it makes 0-D Beat Drop a standout puzzle game on Xbox Live Arcade. It definitely borrows a lot from similar games (you might even say steals) but the demanding rhythmic component here makes the end result unique. Fans of falling-shape puzzlers like Puyo Puyo or music games like Lumines should definitely give this one a drop.

If you played and enjoyed last year's Call of Duty: World at War on DS, then you can expect to like Moblized. It brings the war to modern times once more while sticking to the same winning formula. Shooting, manning stationary guns, and getting behind the wheels of some heavy machinery are all part of the classic Call of Duty package and the DS crowd isn't missing out on the fun. The controls won't be ideal for everyone, so give Mobilized a try on a friend's system before you take the plunge if you can. The same goes for the look. Even so, this is one fully featured package and a technically impressive game that successfully takes Call of Duty to the handheld while bringing its own unique presentation to the table.

Excitebike is still a fun design in its enhanced World Rally follow-up. The multiplayer mode and the online-capable track creator feels like natural additions to the classic, though an offline, splitscreen multiplayer mode seems like a no-brainer addition and it's a shame it wasn't in the final product. As much as I still hold the classic near and dear to my heart I don't think it quite holds up to today's standards, but this 3D revisit is easily one of the better WiiWare offerings available.

Painkiller: Resurrection features confusing level design just barely edged out by Call for Heroes: Pompolic Wars (which is terrible) and utterly unsatisfying enemy encounters only slightly more appetizing than the banquet of boredom that is You Are Empty (which, since you probably haven't played it either, is also terrible). It's a repulsive cocktail of inconvenience, design missteps and frustration that fails to entertain on any level. Quite simply, if you buy this game, you are wasting your money.

Shaun White was good fun on Wii last year and it's still a nice ride a year later. Not a lot has changed, though, and you may be a little underwhelmed if you've already been down the mountain. I also want to stress that this is a kids' game, although it's one of the better kids' games around. If you're looking for a simple arcade racer, Shaun White is your man.

Hampered by bland, repetitive play and old control issues, Elite Squadron is one of those games that really will appeal to the hardcore fan only. While there are a couple of bright spots, such as playing as a hero character or in Galactic Conquest mode (which is a vastly underused element for the game), the gameplay hasn't really evolved at all. Overall, it's an experience that, while mildly amusing for a while, leaves you with a desire for much, much more.

I thought last year’s Buzz! Quiz Master has some solid ideas that just needed to be expanded upon in the sequel. That doesn’t happen here. There’s definitely a better presentation to the modes and I dig the new color scheme, but the game's littered with issues. Why have the option for set names if Buzz won’t say them? Why not let me download MyBuzz quizzes to the PSP to play on the go? Why not be able to tell the game I can’t use sound like in Brain Age? Why have so many questions repeat so quickly? There is good stuff in here with modes like Rollover, Buzz’s quips, and the general fun of quizzing, but it’s not enough to overcome the game’s shortcomings. The long and short of it is pretty simple: I like Buzz! games and played Master Quiz a bunch, but I won’t be picking Buzz! Quiz World back up anytime soon.

I enjoyed Jak and Daxter: The Lost Frontier. I’m a fan of the series and thought the platforming was fun, the puzzles using powers were cool, and the upgrading of ships and Jak provided some depth. Unfortunately, the empty environments, camera issues, and repetitive nature of some of the battles ding the game to the point that I can’t give it a glowing recommendation. There’s fun to be had here, but it could’ve been polished a bit more to bring out the value.

We Cheer 2 isn’t a bad cheerleading game, which was a surprise for me heading into this review. There’s a decent amount of fun to be had in the core gameplay and the career is fairly well designed. The one massive disappointment is the controls which really hamper the experience. The inaccuracies happen several times per song and even more so when you ratchet up the difficulty. It’s unfortunate that a game that’s so reliant on motion controls doesn’t leverage the new technology that’s available. If it had we might’ve been treated to the sleeper hit of the year. Sadly that’s not quite the case.

Pro Evolution Soccer 2010 is a solid game of soccer that could’ve been improved with just a bit of innovation. It’s tough to expect developers to invest resources in the aging system, but then one has to wonder why they’re still releasing games on the hardware at all. PES 2010 on PlayStation 2 will suit you if you haven’t played the series in several years, but if you have any other option available, you’ll enjoy yourself more elsewhere.

This is the fourth and last chapter in the series, and it feels a bit claustrophobic mainly because Telltale recycles so many assets and locations from before. We understand that's the nature of the episodic beast, but it doesn't change the fact that it feels like we've seen much of this game before. Still, this four episode series has felt like a welcome shot of Wallace & Gromit, with all the invention and charm that the duo is known for.

Most of Dragonology's issues are minor, though, and shouldn't keep young, dragon-crazed DS players from having fun tracking down the "real" dragons of the world alongside Dr. Drake here. Older gamers won't be nearly as entertained, as this one's clearly targeted to the younger set -- but if you've got a son, daughter, niece, nephew or cousin in the Eragon and How To Train Your Dragon age range, Dragonology on DS could be another nice addition to their own growing museums of dragonalia.
