NHL 09

I am hyped on this game. I love Hockey so it really appeals to me. But its still a great game. The new Be a Pro mode (similar to Maddens Superstar mode) is great. It is very fun, but gets repetitive after a while. But the best thing this game has to offer is the online hockey league. You start off by joining or creating a club, which can hold up to 50 people. You and 5 other of those people go online, play against other 6 player teams from different clubs, and you pick your position and play it.
Very fun.

Star Wars: The Force Unleashed - Xbox 360

Pros Cons
Engaging story Doesn't live up to expectations
Epic boss fights It's boooring
Innovative concepts Repetitive gameplay
  Unresponsive controls
  Braindead computer AI
Dissapointing to say the least...

Yeah, I thought it was disappointing to say the least. It glitched out on me many times. Physics got wonky, and the worst part of all, my BRAND NEW disc, it fuckin made the cut-scenes are snippy and choppy. It was extremely annoying. Oh, and killing hundreds of the same enemies dosent get repetitve at all...
But the story is good, and I liked the Jedi Fights. The RPG concept was neat, just wish leveling up had more of a visual effect...

Braid - Xbox 360

Amazing visuals Not enough content
Awesome audio  
Addictive gameplay  
Just plain fun  
Braid

This is a flat out great game. Its so fresh, and surprisingly, manages to stay fresh the entire game, by throwing new aspects of time control your way. It is also challenging. Oh, and the Audio. Don't get me started on the Audio. I would put it up on the level of Chrono Trigger. Just fantastic. Now the only downers with this game is the 15 bucks you have to cough up, and that the boss fights are lame. But this is a definite pick up, no matter what kind of games you like.

Mercs 2

Yo, I rented this game off of Gamefly a couple weeks ago, and I was hyping the hell outta it, only to be let down. Sure, the bombs are fun, and the vehicle controls are good, and going on homicidal rampages are good, but at the end of the day, it just wasn't very good. Impressive visuals, but just bland gameplay, very generic, and a lame, short story. A good rent, just for the Mercs 1 nostalgia feel.

Spider-Man 3 - Wii

Slinging Webs Gone Interactive?

For all you people out there who hate Spiderman, to you, T say shove it. For all the homeboys that liked the comics and the movies, do I have a comic book-wrapped treat for you! A new Spiderman game! And with this next-gen installment, there comes one question. How this work on the Wii? Let me describe it in 3 words. Fun, Repetitive, Unresponsive.
Fun:I am not gonna lie to you. I had a blast with these controls when I first got it. It takes a while to get used to, like most Wii games, but they are good.
Repetitive:After about 3 and 1/2 hours of gameplay(Which is a little less then half the time i spent on the story)I got sick of the controls. I'm not sure why, but it could just be me. They just kept doing the same thing.
Unresponsive:This one pretty much describes itself.
Overall, if you are a Spiderman fan, get it. But for all the casual gamers, I give it a Rent-able.
