Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix is typically average for a licensed game. The addition of the wand controls edges it above mediocre -- but only barely.

Yet another uninspired 'Wii-make' that adds little to the PS2/Xbox original.

At World's End delivers exactly what you'd expect from a movie licensed game: It's deep enough and features enough referential material to draw in the diehard fans of the source material but it isn't innovative or interesting enough to stand alone in the action genre. However, if you come in with lowered expectations, you just might have fun with it.

Grim Grimoire is an RPG that fails to innovate the genre in any area. While far from terrible, the overall experience is decidedly average.

Beyond its online career mode, there's not much that leads Juiced 2 to stand out from the pack. It's an unassuming street racer with few flaws, but at the same time, few outstanding qualities. Even the visuals don't inspire much, leaving Juiced 2: Hot Import Nights cold by morning.

The game is great graphically, especially considering how quickly the environment responds to climate changes, though the hyper-cute characters and level designs may turn off many. Had the physics been less dramatic, we probably would have had more fun with it. Instead, the game is just too frustrating for its own good, which is strange considering its kid-friendly vibe.

Table Tennis is more a novelty with the Wii Remote adding some interest to the game, but the 360 version had online multiplayer and achievements to keep you going. However, for many, it won't be enough to justify anything more than a weekend rental.

There are just too many problems with Kane & Lynch to cover here. The gritty atmosphere and balls-out gunplay offer some thrills, offline co-op demands a strong partnership, and the online cops-and-robbers mode holds some potential, but it takes a lot more than a hard-boiled noir tone and a mildly interesting amalgam of ideas to form the taut tour de force Kane & Lynch aspires to be.

Beowulf: The Game is a simple and gory tie-in to the big budget movie. However, it doesn't live up to the epic nature of the classic poem and it certainly isn't going to make you forget about God of War III either.

Untamed is a pup past its prime. The multiplayer mode holds potential overall but the uninspired off-road racing and bland presentation means you should only consider it if you're a die-hard franchise fan or an off-road racing junkie.

Some fun—but probably not long-term playability
