The only games I picked up lately were
DOW:Winter Assault 5/10. Solid game, I guess, but they really didn't add ANY content for 30 bucks. The main game was even worse about content, but at least they put the engine in place, this just added a boring race and some maps, and I could download those sorts of things third party for free.
Skies of Arcadia Legends: 8/10. I loved playing the original on the 'cast but it's not worth pulling it out of the box anymore and plus it's starting to act up, so I shelled out the 20 bucks to see what the new content was like. My only complaint is they didn't find a very good way of dealing with the content that was centered on the VMU (namely the Pinta quest and Cupil's appearance when you're near a cham) but the wanted battles are sort of cool and the moonfish stuff is all right, albeit more of the same style as chams and discoveries. Still a great RPG, and it stands up pretty damn well.
