UberSoldier II
Windows PC
Apparently, what the world needs now is another World War II themed first-person-shooter (FPS) in which you kill many, many Nazis. Well, the world also needs cheaper games, and UberSoldier II certainly fits that bill.

Spore
Macintosh, Windows PC
Better and more sadly described as a "Life Simulator for Dummies," Spore is not quite the evolution of videogaming most hoped it to be, though it is all about evolution.

Spore Creatures
Nintendo DS
Focusing on and sensibly enhancing a single stage of Spore on PC, Spore Creatures for Nintendo DS is easily the better Spore game.

Peggle Nights
Windows PC
Phoop, thonk, ping, wap, boink, boink, tink, tink, tink, TINK, bonk, piddle, piddle, piddle, sploosh. Sure, it's no Call of Duty 4, Halo 3 or Rock Band 2, but Peggle Nights pretty much dares you to call it a "casual game" Go on, try. Thing is, there's no such thing as a "casual crack" either.

Lumosity
Windows PC
If you've any sort of penchant for "brain games," be they the Touch Generation titles found abundantly on Nintendo DS, or just the classics like the New York Times Crossword and 100,000 piece jigsaw puzzles, you'll likely take a shine to Lumosity.

Tiger Woods PGA Tour 09
PlayStation 3
Some people play golf, some people watch golf on TV, some people play golf on their TV, and some people do all of the above. Tiger Woods PGA Tour 09 for PlayStation3 lets you and others across the interweb do all that at the same, together.

Mario Super Sluggers
Wii
Typical of Nintendo, Mario and Co. have gathered yet again to play in some real-world sport but brought their magical mushroom trappings, fantastical power-up razzle-dazzle, and hallucinogenic sense of decor along with them.

Mercenaries 2: World In Flames
PlayStation 2, PlayStation 3, Xbox 360
EA's new go-anywhere, over-the-top sandbox combat game, brimming with Hollywood-grade, oft-comedic violence, is very aptly named. "World in Flames" indeed. It's all good.

Disgaea 3: Absence of Justice
PlayStation 3
Like electronics-as-fetishism, artfully-overpackaged snacks, the practice of Cute-bordering-on-Creepy and Little-Ghost-Girls that Freak-You-Right-The-Hell-Out, the Japanese invented -- and have continued to perfect -- the art/science of "fan service."

Too Human
Xbox 360
Ten years coming, plagued with delays, a terabyte of hate and hype on interweb message boards, one very public lawsuit and two opposing executive windbags postulating on the wherefore of it all, Too Human for Xbox 360 is finally here. If only they'd waited a bit more.

Fallout 3 Xbox 360 Fallout 3 follows in the auspicious footsteps of role-playing/shooter hybrids before it, Elder Scrolls IV Oblivion and BioShock, widely accepted as Game of the Year in 2006 and 2007 respectively. '08 just might be the year of the Fallout -- on Xbox 360, anyway (the PC version could've been better).
LEGO Batman: The Videogame Xbox 360 Seems this trippin'-the-plastic-fantastic thing just doesn't get old. LEGO Star Wars, LEGO Star Wars Complete, LEGO Indiana Jones and now LEGO Batman. So what's next? LEGO Terminator? LEGO Desperate Housewives? LEGO Jerry Springer?
NBA 2k9 Xbox 360 The battle of the basketball sims between EA Sports and 2K Sports has been going on for several years now and heading into the end of this decade, 2K Sports has edged its way into the lead, surpassing gameplay and presentation every iteration.
