Travis Touchdown is back, and he's ready to chop up more dudes and scream as many swear words as necessary to get the job done. This one is just as insane as the first, and you'll probably have even more fun.

Why don't they just go home? That's their home! Are they to good for their home?

As a disclaimer, I don't enjoy being mean or cynical or cross about a game. I take no pleasure in seeing flaws or problems when it comes to gameplay. Despite how some reviewers write, as if they're too smart for game companies and game companies are low on the totem pole, that's not me and it won't be. With all of this said, I really do sincerely hope that the movie Avatar is more entertaining than the game.

It's not going to set the world on fire, but at its budget price, it's a good stocking stuffer choice for the little futbol fanatic in your family.

I think we've all played our fair share of bad Wii games by now. A system with so much potential is riddled with software that just makes you shake your head in disbelief. But, as they say, one man's trash is another man's treasure. I'm not saying Just Dance is trash, but well, it's close. I hate to be that harsh, but some efforts need the brutal truth. Let's get this over with...

In the original Assassin's Creed players found themselves experiencing new forms of stealth fighting. Climbing buildings, jumping down on helpless enemies and having one helluva chase after another, there was plenty to like. Regretfully, after a while the gameplay got a bit old and the continuity between present and past became distracting, which led to 'middle of the road' gaming. So to say there was a lot riding on the sequel would be a terrible understatement. The question is, did Ubisoft deliver or disappoint? Come find out.

We still haven't found this guy yet?

Feud for thought

WW2 games are a dime a dozen. In fact, I'm actually convinced that blasting Nazis is ranked up with one of the great American gamer past times. Heroes over Europe takes you from the familiar trenches and plops you into a cockpit to blast Jerry back to where he came from. Unfortunately, you're going to want to eject and go AWOL. Just a fair warning for those hard-core flight sim guys out there if that's what you're looking for in HoE, it's not here.

World War II airplanes have always fascinated me; I have Steven Spielberg's 1941 to blame for that. Ubisoft has released another way for me to experience combat flying in WWII without actually having to be a part of it. Heroes Over Europe features some of the most beautiful scenery imagined for a WWII simulator. The question is: Could it actually have more than that? Come fly with me.

From the developer that brought you Super Smash Bros. Brawl comes this (surprisingly?) familiar take on a fighting game starring the Ninja Turtles.

I was very fortunate enough to see Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs in August (early screening) and enjoyed the humor. My kids would have loved to see the film (which I'm going to take them to because I'm a good parent), so I understood going into this game what audience the title was geared towards. Still, did it make a difference that I knew it was for the kids? Let's find out.

Might want to think twice before dining on turtle soup tonight.

You know you've got a good game on your hands when it hooks you in and won't let go for hours and hours on end. Such has been the case for me this weekend with a new one from Ubisoft called Dawn of Discovery. Dawn of Discovery is, as my collegue Patrick pointed out in his review of the PC version, a sequel or continuation of the Anno series of real time strategy games (only this time under a different name in America). I wasn't sure what I was getting into when I first fired up Dawn of Discovery, but it's been the most addictive game I have played in many weeks.
