Those looking for a simple turn-based strategy game could do a lot worse than Commanders: Attack of the Genos. The game is a fun distraction as a single player game and a good amount of fun when playing online. For casual gamers or those looking for some relaxed strategy gaming in between more intense affairs, Commanders is worth a look.

Winter Games 2008 is far, far better than either the price or uninspired title would lead you to believe. The extra meat found in the Campaign Mode at least gives the events a little more life, and the events themselves -- while not universally awesome -- are at least mildly fun across the board. In some cases, they can be plenty of fun in multiplayer with friends.

Clockwork Knight is a classic launch title. It's gussied up with features that capitalize on a new system's power, such as polygons or CD-quality audio. But at its core, Clockwork Knight is just a base-level platform that skates too long on the charms of its hero, Pepper. I do hope that the Saturn is resurrected somehow on the current console, maybe on the Virtual Console or the Xbox Live Arcade, but if Pepper is called back into service, his sequel is the one that should be enlisted.

If you're trying to decide which of Bomberman's recent adventures to try out, we recommend Bomberman Land Touch! 2 for the DS. However, if you specifically have eyes on Bomberman Land for the Wii, there's a good amount of fun content included. There are certainly better Wii games out there, but I had fun with this one and it'll especially please fans of the original Bomberman experience.

Operation Wolf was well worth the drop of a quarter in its original arcade form, as it featured a large, cabinet-mounted replication Uzi as a controller and had a lot of personality as a result. But when Taito began to port the game to countless different home systems in the '80s, it lost a lot of its appeal. The NES edition was crippled in its visuals, in particular, and seemed disappointing in comparison to the coin-op version. And now that same NES edition is crippled even further if you don't have the light fun somewhere. With just a standard controller, Operation Wolf just doesn't work and never would without some sort retcon programming. Stay far, far away.

The original Discs of Tron is one of my favorite games ever made. Anyone who only experiences Discs of Tron through this poor port won't understand why this game was ever held in high regard. It's a shame that a classic could be given such poor treatment with meager graphics, bad sound, and inaccurate controls. The one new element, the online multiplayer, runs poorly and is no fun to play. All-in-all, one of the worst XBLA ports to date.

It'd be easy to roll your eyes at this decidedly kiddie game, but it's important to give Sony a pat on the back. Yeah, this title and its simplistic tasks are only going to entertain the young ones for a limited time, but even though I'd never play these games without the promise of a paycheck, it's nice to see Sony supporting a niche controller. Robojam isn't beautiful or deep, but it is a solid game for families to occasionally gather around, enjoy with the ankle biters and bicker over who gets to be the blue robot.

Since the decline of adventure games, it seems the classics of Sierra and LucasArts have managed to outshine a lot of equally deserving third-party titles. It might be hard to appreciate how impressive Under a Killing Moon was in 1994, but the approachable design, friendly hint system, and entertaining presentation have helped it to age gracefully, and it has weathered the test of time as one of the best detective games to this day.

Playing The Spiderwick Chronicles took me back to old-school adventure games like Alice in Wonderland on the Apple II. It recreates that feeling of being a kid and suspending your disbelief in fantasy. Much of this success in setting a mood and creating an intriguing world to explore is attributable to Holly Black's original books. But I have to give credit to developer Stormfront for creating a fun game to go inside the Spiderwick license. The graphics aren't much to look at, the environments need more variety, and checkpoints don't come along often enough. But there is a big area to delve into, the music is great, and there are lots of options in combat. There's something new to find around every corner, and that's something I can't say about enough games.

I can't help but see World Championship Paintball as anything beyond an obvious attempt to cash in on the general interest of paintball as a sport. Unfortunately, at no point does the game ever feel like it channels the intensity, chaos or appeal of the real thing. The game is an ugly, pointless waste of shelf occupying space, and the $20 THQ is charging would be better spent on an hour or so of real paintball at your nearest course. Stay far, far away.

If you get into The Club, you'll find an arcade shooter with a twist that can be played obsessively in search of high scores. I didn't find the hook all that appealing and felt left with a glorified shooting gallery. The idea is sound. There just isn't much to be excited about in the final product.

Though the focus might be more on Nero than Dante, and could've been named something else with a Dante cameo, DMC4 still has everything that fans expect of the game – over the top fight sequences, tons of replayability and an experience with an excellent production value. Whether it's on the PS3 or the 360, action fans are going to get one incredible experience with this game, and if you own either system, you'll have a great time.
