Kameo: Elements of Power Review
------------------------------------ Quote-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Plenty of original, funny, visually stunning, and fun-filled moments await in Kameo: Elements of Power, which is the first Xbox 360 action adventure game, as well as a standard-setter.
The Good: Inventive, fun gameplay involves transforming into various cool, kooky creatures; plenty of variety will keep you guessing and entertained; drop-dead gorgeous visuals showcase the power of the xbox 360; beautifully composed orchestral score, as well as tons of amusing sound effects
.
The Bad: Disjointed introduction may be frustrating; fairly short game at fewer than 10 hours in length; two-player cooperative mode isn't very compelling.

Call of Duty 2 Review
------------------------------------ Quote-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
On the Xbox 360, this first-rate WWII first-person shooter is every bit as intense and hard-hitting as the PC version of the game.
The Good: Smooth, detailed graphics and great sound; aggressive enemy artificial intelligence; makes you really feel like a small part of a bigger war; varied campaign.
The Bad: Online multiplayer restricted to eight players ; higher pricepoint than its pc counterpart.

Need For Speed Most Wanted Review
------------------------------------ Quote-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Most Wanted is great fun on the Xbox 360, from its hysterical cutscenes to its extremely tense police chases.
The Good: Mind-blowing full-motion video cutscenes; outrunning the cops is extremely exciting; outstanding sound effects; tones down some of the over-the-top product placement found in the previous nfs games; 360 version looks good in standard resolutions, much better in hd.
The Bad: Racer AI isn't too bright at first, gets wicked smart later on; not enough mind-blowing full-motion video cutscenes; occasional skipping and stuttering from the graphics.

NBA 2K6 Review
------------------------------------ Quote-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
NBA 2K6 looks fantastic if you have an HDTV, but the gameplay will seem familiar to you if you've played one of the other versions of the game already.
The Good: Isomotion and shot stick are great; fantastic graphics and presentation; teams and players play like they do in real life; tons of content; plays just like the xbox and ps2 versions.
The Bad: Plays just like the Xbox and PS2 versions; not for casual basketball fans; need a high-definition display to get the most out of it.

Project Gotham Racing 3 Review
------------------------------------ Quote-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
PGR3's dazzling line-up of exotics autos trump just about anything we've seen on consoles thus far. And just as much of the inherent sexiness of cars in real-life is in how they -- quite literally -- reflect the world around them, the rides in PGR3 are pure sex thanks to the game engine's real-time environment mapping. As you race, streetlights, sunlight, buildings, other vehicles bend, flow, and stream off your car's curved exteriors. Even the headlights of trailing competitors can be seen reflecting off the windshield of your car. That is, if you happen to be driving using the behind-the-dashboard view, which -- trust me -- you should be.
Additionally, Gotham TV should give gamers an even more fulfilling way to view their friend's races and check out the techniques of the best of the best.
