    Assassin's Creed: Revelations (Special Edition)

    There's a great deal to enjoy about Revelations, but it unfortunately doesn't quite live up to its title.

    The success of Assassin's Creed II can be attributed to Ubisoft's motivation to address the core problems of the original game. Along came Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood shortly afterwards, and surprised many by adding el... Read Full Review

    The Legend of Dragoon

    While many of its key points could've been better, Legend of Dragoon is still a satisfying journey from start to finish.

    Legend of Dragoon shows a world that has a lot of heart, but it's not to say that this game doesn't have its share of problems. While its gratifying storyline and enjoyable game play mechanics are definitely attention-gr... Read Full Review

    This magical, storybook-like adventure game is beautiful and charming at its best.

    Playing the role of a sun god is pretty fun, but when you have to go on a journey to save the world from evil, revive nature, and restore the people's lost faith, it is definitely epic in a grand scale. Okami takes you t... Read Full Review

    Though frustrating at times, Mirror's Edge gives a new and refreshing experience never before seen in first-person game.

    A game that lets you run around a big city scaling walls, perform acrobatic stunts while avoiding the police...sounds like a fun game of cat-and-mouse. Electronic Arts' Mirror's Edge definitely lets you feel that same ex... Read Full Review

    Call of Duty 4 is an excellent modern first-person shooter game that stands tall against many other shooters.

    It looks like many fans got what they wanted when the Call of Duty finally left the WWII setting to the modern era. So, Infinity Ward decided it was time for a change, and Call of Duty 4 is the result. This superb first-... Read Full Review
