Sadly, this is in every way the weakest entry in the Monkey Ball series to date.

Make no mistake about it; this is a massive game.

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.

With our Nintendo crew and in house Silent Hill guy at CES, it was up to me to take on the chills in Konami's newest title in the franchise, Silent Hill: Shattered Memories. Released for the Wii on December 8th, and upcoming for the PS2 and PSP in a week, Shattered Memories puts players in the middle of a dark and twisted psychological tale. While not without its flaws, Shattered Memories is an impressive title that deserves your attention.

It’s Final Fantasy, but it’s hardly RPG. That doesn’t make it bad, though.

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

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...

The beat goes on. Konami's DDR series continues on the Wii with DDR Hottest Party 3. For a total DDR newb like me, I appreciated some of the user friendly features, but I'm still abysmal at this game. It's no fault of the dance pad or the game itself though; nevermind that now, let's take a closer look at the new DDR.

One of the many great things about being a reviewer is that you get to play games that you otherwise wouldn't have. Sometimes those opportunities can lead to a new found respect for a game, a series, or even a genre. I was recently tasked with reviewing We Cheer 2, the newest dance/rhythm title in Namco's lineup. Having no experience with the first We Cheer nor cheering in general, I dove right into this one and tried to view it from the perspective of the target audience. I think We Cheer 2 gets a lot right, but there is room for improvement. That said, if you're looking for the perfect cheer, you won't get any closer on a console this holiday.

In other words, Wii Fit 2.0

It's a family game night where you don't have to feel bad about your purchase.
