Wacky Races: Crash & Dash
Wii
If you're old enough to remember watching 60s-era Hanna-Barbara cartoons on Saturday mornings, take off the rose-colored spectacles o' nostalgia for a minute and recall how crappy they really were. Wacky Races on Wii is like that, only you have to pay for it. So don't.

UEFA Euro 2008
PlayStation 2, PlayStation 3, Xbox 360
Funny how a fanatic can be expected to pay any price for a soccer game. But as UEFA Euro 2008 is basically akin to a single-purpose expansion pack for FIFA soccer, is it so not worth a full $50. Not even close.

Princess Bride Game
Windows PC
Water-fetching, cliffs that'll drive you insane, unusually large rodents, blathe, land wars in Asia, omitting a wheelbarrow from a list of assets... sound familiar? Princess Bride Game brings it all back.

Blast Works
Wii
As the likes of RPG Maker and Fighter Maker date back to the mid-90's, Majesco's Blast Works is not the first game of game design, but is it the first to bust out of the swamp of casual mediocrity on Wii to offer something that is still expectedly "casual" yet elaborately interactive, too.

Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots
PlayStation 3
If you're old enough to remember the incept of the Metal Gear chronicles, dude, u r old. But Snake's right there with you in the new, epic finale, Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots, which is so not a whimper.

Ninja Gaiden II
Xbox 360
If you like your decapitations with a fountainous blood-spurt chaser, your severed limbs to do a little death-throe wiggle, your dismembered torsos to work as projectiles in a pinch, then oh boy, is Ninja Gaiden II for you.

Kung Fu Panda
PlayStation 2, PlayStation 3, Wii, Xbox 360
There's nothing quite like gathering the family together on the couch, firing up the oh-so wholesome Wii and then beating the crap out of all creatures great and small. And cuddly.

SingStar
PlayStation 3
While several SingStar karaoke games for PlayStation2 have allowed Sony's previous-generation console to enjoy significant, reinvented success as a party-game machine, bringing the franchise to the high-powered, new-generation PlayStation3 isn't all that. Simply put, SingStar on PlayStation3 is a devout underachiever.

Emergency Mayhem
Wii
As Wii successfully engages the "casual" and "social" gamers, the tots and the grandparents of tots, kids and their parents, software expectations in general become notably lower than the "new generation" average. Emergency Mayhem for Wii does absolutely nothing to argue the point.

Lego Indiana Jones: The Original Adventures
PlayStation 2, PlayStation 3, Wii, Xbox 360
Swapping Force for Fedora, the plastic fantastic Lego games go grave robbing with some whipsmacking professor named Henry. Mind the snakes.

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?
