And when I say vintage, I really mean vintage. The new gaming generation would most certainly be too young to even know about most of the games that were around in the early 80’s. Hell I was just sucking my thumb in those years.

The story of Shaun White Snowboarding is a tale of two fun, distinct games that, if joined together, probably would have formed something better than either attempt on its own.
That's something the Wii version - a completely different game in every respect - does much better. Road Trip is less attractive, less ambitious and more linear than its Xbox 360 PlayStation 3 cousin, but the events fall more consistently in line with what one expects and wants from a snowboarding game.Trip also benefits from excellent use of the balance board as a mock snowboard, although the game also works surprisingly well with just the Wiimote. The Wiimote scheme is considerably easier, but mastering the board is considerably more fun. In a nice touch, the game adjusts the target times and scores for every event to reflect your control method, and you're free to change back and forth between events without sacrificing your overall progress.
The downside to either method is a familiar song for Wii games: less flexibility in controls. With buttons at a premium, your range of acrobatics is sorely limited. While pulling tricks off isn't a mindless cakewalk, the sense of risk and danger is considerably less than what the other game allows. "Trip" would have benefited from some kind of nunchuck attachment support, but the disparity between that degree of control and that of the available methods probably was too large for Ubisoft to justify its inclusion.In the end, neither game completely nails it. Fortunately, neither game blows it, either. Issues await you no matter which poison you pick, but if you're steeled for those issues, a good time awaits, as well.

Shaun is a friend and mentor in the game, and will help you with your skills. And if you are deemed worthy, you may even be able to play as Shaun in the game…
Quantum of Solace
"Quantum of Solace" is combines story cues and characters from both the recent movie release and the "Casino Royale" movie. If you never saw either movie then the story of the game will not connect neatly. The problem is that the dialogue is sparse throughout the game, with most of is coming between missions. And it sets up the next snippet of action, instead of establishing a stronger link between events. The action takes places across 14 stages in locales such as Madagascar and Miami, and settings ranging from caves to estates.The individual stages are short. If you are familiar with video games you can breeze through most of them in 30 minutes, including multiple deaths. The game presents an interesting mix of foot chases, hand-to-hand combat and some decent gunfights. The "Call of Duty 4" game engine was used as a template but they forgot to give the game the same level of intensity. Only the timed missions have a sense of urgency. The enemies are not very aware. They are bright enough to chase and flank you, they also should be bright enough not to take cover behind explosive containers.
The game is played from first- and third-person perspectives. The controls get caught in the middle at times. The main example is when you have to remove yourself from cover then hop over an object. Bond will remove himself from cover but instead of immediately hopping over the barrier you might have to step back to try to clear it. The weapons targeting is decent, much better at mid-range and long distance when in first-person view. At up-close range you have some of those "how did I miss?" moments.The environments are fully destructible. In some instances they are falling down around you as you are moving through them. Exploding melons in market gunfights, splintered fences and shattered windows are just a few of the effects. The explosions, which look nice, have a Hollywood soundstage feel. But it is cool how the ripple from a nearby grenade or large explosion can shake your aim.
Guitar Hero - On Tour Decades
PES 2009: Pro Evolution Soccer 
The computer AI doesn't make many mistakes with the ball. The auto-switch system (player takes control of the nearest man to ball) feels sluggish. The "Master League" features remain a draw for fans of international soccer by allowing them to take day-to-day control of a club. The graphics are rich and detailed. Announcers keep up with the action fairly well and even comment on your coaching skills (or lack thereof).
Metal Slug 7 
Each of seven mercenaries has a combat specialty. The trick is juggling your "continues" so you can have the right solider for each situation. The reward for making it to the end of the stage is a battle with a mechanical juggernaut of some sorts.
