Here you can post your own reviews of video games.
Here's mine:
Game: Dirt 2
Console: Wii
Game rating: 2.5
Review: The game sounds fun because of how it is on the PS3, PC, and Xbox, but on the Wii it's completely HORRIBLE. There are only like 10 tracks, and none of them are actually like a rally track. There are only 6 vehicles in the game, and you can't even change them in any way. You can't paint them or upgrade them. You can't even change the rims! And the graphics look like a PC game from 2003 with the highest graphics settings. And what's even worse is that you can't even drive the cars good. I could barely keep up with the opponents, which in other reviews for the Wii version of the game say are really easy to beat! So, why buy a $10 game from 2005 for $50? So my advice is to never buy this game.

The Legend of Zelda: Spirit Tracks
Console: DS
Rating: 9
This is fantastic. I came in worrying about how the train would handle as well as the limited number of items and left with a refreshed mind compared to my reaction to Phantom Hourglass. The train is great. Fantastic. It wasn't monotonous whatsoever. I was constantly on the lookout for armored trains and enemies, especially when transporting a passenger across New Hyrule. And I actually got more Game Overs in this than Ocarina of Time. Mostly since I freak when an armored train is right ahead of me on a one-way rail.
The gripes I have were that the sidequests were somewhat limited and the Spirit Flute's Lokomo sequences were unforgiving even though it was the microphone's fault. Though I forgive the sequences for their kick-butt music.
This game is a must-buy. The soundtrack is crisp and new, the gameplay fantastic, and the story pretty sweet.

Super Smash Bros. Brawl
Console:Wii
Rating:9.99999999/10
This is hands-down the best game for the Wii. The graphics are amazing, music selection is great, fighting is immersive, and so much more. This Smash Bros. installment has a story mode, which has the various Nintendo characters teaming up and fighting through many sidescrolling stages. There are many challenges to complete in the game, and you'll have a good time doing it. There are plenty of new characters and stages for the game, and most of your old favorite characters as well. The reason this isn't a 10 is because almost all people who owned Melee as well as Brawl say that Melee is much better because it's faster, and doesn't have some of the weird mechanics of Brawl, like tripping. To me, none of that matters; this is still my favorite game!

New Super Mario Bros. Wii
Console: (You guessed it!) Wii
Rating: 7/10
This Mario comeback was amazing, with new outstanding features, super hard levels, and Bowser's children! This game's new multiplayer mode is fun, But MARIO never seemed to be a multiplayer game. It's troublemaking after two people, but it's ok. The graphics, new level designs and features REALLY keeps this game on it's feet. Marvelous! However, Mario is a biiiiiit harder to control sadly, and the gameplay is 2% sloppy. That's MY review for Neeeeeeeewwwww Su-per Mario Bros. - Wii!

OK, maybe it's possibly the best game for the Wii.

Game: Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days
Console: Nintendo DS and DSi
Game rating: 4/5
Review: This game is from the creators of Final Fantasy, and other great games. Not like what you would expect - You'd probably like alot more...Normal living, but with that twist. Well, you do missions, watch scenes...But it's still strangely fun. Not much to say, you gotta' get it to know if you like it or not. I did a review of it for school...But it's hanging up at the classroom right now.

I read the SF64 one, and I skimmed the MP3:Corruption one. I didn't read most of them because I either have or am thinking about getting those games and didnt' want to give away the storyline.

Game: New Super Mario Bros. Wii
Console: Wii
Rating: 8.5/10
Details: It was very fun, but it didn't seem any different from what you would get from the NES version. I was really expecting more. More bosses, trickier puzzles, and it didn't really quite make it.

I agree with that review
(However don't get it unless you've played the other kingdom hearts games, or you're going to be extremely confused)

I bought it.
Here's your review.
Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles: The Crystal Bearers
Console: Wii
Rating: 6
I came in thinking it would be awesome and it slapped me upside the face. This game does not use the Wii remote very well, as it left at least 5 buttons unused. It begs for a jump button, especially considering how many platforms there are, but it was denied the feature. While you are able to fling people around and have a ball with the environment, the feature is incredibly limited and it gets stale and boring after a while. You can interact with nearly all parts of the environment, but you can only throw them/pick them up which still handled terribly.
The story is mediocre at best, it's predictable and drags on.
In fact, probably all I liked about this game was the soundtrack and graphics. It felt as though the game was still under heavy development and I was glitch-testing it.
I wouldn't buy it again.

Game: Empire: Total War
Console: PC
Rating: 9.5/10
Details: The total war series has always been great, and this didn't disappoint. With new modes including online multiplayer and a new campaign mode, it was really great.

Hey, technically Scratch Games count as video games.
Super Sherbert Advanced 2
Console: PC
Rating: 11/10
The amazing sequel to the insanely popular game, Sherbert Advanced made a SMASH hit comeback. Outstanding graphics, plus great gameplay & story. Epic new boss battles, enemies and a brand new ATTACK SYSTEM! This game is perfect, but it was deleted when Dream-Caster quit. If anybody has any saved data of SSA2, please inform!

And I simply had to do this one:
Assassin's Creed 2
Console: Xbox 360, PS3
Rating: 9.2
The first game I picked up for the Xbox 360, and it definitely didn't disappoint. Story had a big plothole, and I really wanted to see Leonardo da Vinci more, but it was made up for in gameplay and musical quality. I absolutely love the free-running in this game. It makes you feel free and unrestrained by the law of which truly has no hold on the elusive Assassin. The animations for each weapon were fresh and exciting as well; I found myself switching from hidden blades to fists just so I could disarm the opponent, use his weapon against him, and then it was back to the dagger for me.
And what I really loved about this game was it's blend of history and fantasy. It used real locations from Italy itself, and mixed them up to match the game. (adding glyphs, assassin tombs, ect.)
Then the music. The music is completely fitting and tasteful, especially in Florence, where the music latches onto the city and draws you to the feeling that it is your home, and you need to protect it.
This game is a must-buy. I highly recommend it.
