Now all your bros. can play. 0
Despite the name, New Super Mario Bros. Wii bares more similarity to previous titles than any other recent Mario game. Not only is it an overflowing nostalgia injection, but an awesome 2D platformer that anybody can get in to.The word "New" in the name only separates this game's name and release date from other 2D Mario titles but not the gameplay. The player controls the game with the Wii remote held sideways, however the game offers for nunchuk use if you prefer the analog stick. The tested Ma...

87 bazillion... funs! 8
Borderlands breaks the mould of other recent shooting games by having a lengthy single player experience with the option of co-op.

When some of the voice cast essentially play themselves, it's not har...

When Halo: Combat Evolved was in development it was originally a real-time strategy game for the Mac before Microsoft acquired Bungie Studios.

Dude, they almost nailed it! 1
Moves which seen tame on the Tony Hawk's games feel great and rewarding hereAfter the release of "skate." in 2007, many were surprised by it's trampling of Tony Hawk's Proving Ground which was released shortly after. The game's fresh and more realistic take on the skating genre proved popular with consumers, despite the game having issues simply from being a new untested series. In skate 2, the satisfying gameplay remains and then some, but some problems from the original game also make a return...
