Mercenaries 2: World in Flames for Xbox 360
Didn't Live Up To Expectations
by digitalvampire
Pros: Many hours of gameplay, improved graphics and sound, open world to explore and blow up.
Cons: Feels rushed, lacks a storyline, weapons feel weak, sometimes buggy...and more.
I loved the PS2 game Mercenaries and was looking forward to playing its supposedly greatly improved sequel on the Xbox 360. Greatly improved graphics, a larger map, more vehicles, more guns...more EVERYTHING plus a two player option sounded just great! ...

Fable 2 for Xbox 360
Imagination Required
by itlog
Pros: Relaxing
Colorful presentation
Easy
Cons: No Challenge
Some pointless aspects
Story is forgettable, for a game named 'Fable'
Fable 2 is a game set in the late medieval to early renaissance period. It combines three genres: RPG, Action and Business simulation - however, not to an equal degree. More on that later. 1. GraphicsThe graphics are lush and colorful. It is ...

Gears of War 2 for Xbox 360
More things to make you go BOOM - Gears of War 2
by Rock_On
Pros: Horde mode, better fleshed out story, fun new weapons
Cons: Matchmaking problems
Gears of War 2 had a hell of a lot of hype leading up to it's release. Ever since the first Gears made waves in 2006 with multiple Game of the Year awards, XBOX 360 owners have slobbered over the inevitable sequel, and here we are. After reading ...

Left 4 Dead for Xbox 360
Surrounded by hordes of zombies, will you be Left 4 Dead or will you survive?
by jbrd
Pros: Excellent premise and brilliant execution, graphics.
Cons: Only four scenarios with 5 levels in each(20 levels)
I wonder what would happen if zombies did swarm all over Earth. What would we do? Run and don't look back or would we be like the four survivors in Left 4 Dead and fight? I, for one, would like to just run and get the hell out, but whats the fun in that ...

GAME 007 JAMES BOND QUANTUM OF SOLACE for Xbox 360
Does Activision's First 007 Title Live Or (Let) Die?
by Shaunpm60
Pros: Good use of Call Of Duty 4 engine, good presentation. Not a failure.
Cons: More Casino than Quantum, no driving segments, short, lacks variety.
As you may have figured out by now, Activision is the new publisher/holder of the 007 franchise. The first game to be released from the company isn't by any means bad, but if they were ever thinking of differentiating themselves from what EA has produced ...

Mirror's Edge Sealed for Xbox 360
Mirror's Edge - All Hype, No Edge
by t13monkeys
Pros: premise is cool
Cons: but the execution is not
After getting over my love of the “tech demo” that is Mirror’s Edge, it’s easy to begin to see that everything else that the game is composed of is meaningless hype, from the story to the promise of “unrivaled ...

Fallout 3 for Xbox 360
Trapped in Time
by onionhead2001
Pros: Long quest, for those inclined.  Fun "VATS" combat system.  Solid RPG elements.
Cons: Horrible character graphics and voice acting.  Tedious quest structure.  Crippling bugs.
Maybe I'm just missing something.  Now, really... don't get me wrong, I enjoyed this game.  I did.  I spent 50 hours exploring the nuclear wasteland that was once Washington DC, and I consdier this to be a decent addition to ...

Gears of War for Xbox 360
Things that make you go BOOM - Gears of War
by Rock_On
Pros: Fast action, active reload, interesting weapons, cooperative play
Cons: Cover controls has some bugs, campaign incredibly short
With the excitement and major hype surrounding the release of Gears of War 2, the few people left that hadn't played its 2006 Game of the Year predecessor were left wondering what was so great about it. A lot along the lines of the success that ...
