Review: Dragonball Evolution
Only traces of the original plot remain: evil alien Piccolo (James Marsters) still fights to collect all seven dragonballs to summon a dragon that will grant one wish.
Review: Left 4 Dead 2
When Valve announced a full-priced sequel to Left 4 Dead only one year after the original, 40,000 frustrated gamers joined an on-line boycott. The boycotters had a point, but they'll miss out if they stand on principle.
Review: New Super Mario Bros. Wii

Review: God of War III
What is Kratos so angry about — again? There used to be a good reason for his non-stop temper tantrums.
Review: Final Fantasy XIII
I’m so old, I can remember when Final Fantasy VIII came out and everybody complained about it.
Review: Singularity
