I Played This Game for Five Minutes: In Lieu of a Review Edition

Ico (PlayStation 2)

Between the unintuitive controls and obtuse puzzles, there’s no wonder this became a cult classic.

Spider-man 3 (Xbox 360)

It’s never a good sign when your game crashes while trying to load the title screen.

skate. (Xbox 360)

Just like real skating, the point is to gain corporate endorsements and go professional. Trademark issues prevented the original title from being used: Tony Hawk Simulator 1.000.

Geometry Wars: Retro Evolved^2 (Xbox Live Arcade)

I imagine this is what being on LSD is like. Warning: May induce epileptic seizures.

1942: Joint Strike (Xbox Live Arcade)

Yet another in the series of endless remakes of old arcade games. To quote Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country, just because we can do a thing, it does not necessarily follow that we should do that thing.
