Bully Scholarship Edition for the Wii is a remake of the original Bully game. Both were created by Rockstar games who made Grand Theft Auto (GTA) series. Like GTA, Bully is a sandbox game in which players are invited to explore the game world and ignore many of the games objectives if they like. The game centers on Jimmy Hopkins, abandoned at Bullworth Academy as his mother leaves with her new husband on a very long honeymoon cruise. Jimmy has been kicked out of many schools, but Bullworth proves rougher than the rest. He quickly finds that Bullworth lives up to its Latin motto, Canis Canem Edit (Dog Eat Dog) and decides he needs to bring “law and order” to Bullworth.

Developed by The Behemoth, creators of Alien Hominid HD, Castle Crashers is a beat-em-up RPG for the Xbox Live Arcade for 1-4 players online or offline.

After the evil nameless wizard and his barbarian hordes kidnap the four princesses and take the magic crystal for their own, the knights with the king in tow set off to save the princesses and reclaim the magic crystal.

The Wild West. The time of Cowboys, Indians and buried ancient treasure. That's the theme set by Call of Juarez. Very few shooters and games for that matter tread into the Wild West territory. There's a gold mine of material to choose from but the slower pace of Wild West battles may be what turns off most developers from this era. Techland have done a great job of bringing the feel of the Wild West to a game.

Joseph Turok is a Native American commando who can manhandle dinosaurs and kill them with a combat knife. The good news is that's a pretty cool hook for what is an otherwise generic first-person shooter. The bad news is... it's an otherwise generic first-person shooter that failed to earn distinction upon its release in February 2008. But if hunting dinosaurs and gunning down sci-fi mercenaries sounds like your thing, you'll be pleased to know that while Turok is bloody enough to been rated "Mature" by the ESRB, the most graphic violence is committed against dinosaurs instead of human beings. This, in the eyes of some gamers, makes Turok a different animal than other recent first-person shooters.

“Splinter Cell: Double Agent” is the fourth installment of the “Splinter Cell” series, a popular franchise of stealth/action games. Although the Xbox version shares the same title as the 360 version, the two have differences in both gameplay and story events.

After Sam’s daughter is killed in a car accident, he feels he has nothing left to lose. In response to this tragedy, he teams up with his long time partner in the NSA, Irving Lambert, to undertake the most dangerous mission of his life: to stop the JBA by becoming a double agent.

Those familiar to the Warcraft real time strategy (RTS) games will find gameplay a little different this time around, but the offensive content remains similar to its predecessors- just with better graphics. Even so, Warcraft 3 is a very fun game if you can look past its dark elements and other concerns.
