As adventures go, the "Ratchet & Clank" series reminds me of the work of both J.R.R. Tolkien and George Lucas.
I'm not sure what I was expecting with "NHL 10," but the end result is not unlike "NHL 09."
Disney Interactive Studios' "A Christmas Carol" video game -- exclusive to the Nintendo DS -- is now available at retailers. In the game, based on the Jim Carrey holiday film now in theaters, players experience narrated animated scenes inspired by the film that unfold like an interactive storybook.

Gamezone: Going into "Saw," my expectations were ridiculously low. Sure, Konami knows a thing or two about the survivor horror genre thanks to the "Silent Hill" franchise, but the movie franchise Konami's latest game is based on has always struck me as a more violent and bloody version of Vincent Price's "The Abominable Dr. Phibes."
