Review: NHL 2K10 (Xbox360)
I honestly don’t “get” ice hockey at all. I don’t understand the rules, and I don’t understand why there are three periods instead of two halves or four quarters. I also don’t see why there is such an emphasis on fighting (apart from the obvious draw factor this brings for a certain subculture...

Halo Wars Review (Xbox 360)

When finding an event select it with the “A” button and it will then calculate it for you and set up the navigation system in your car. This is another feature that is done so well! You have a narrator telling you to turn left or rig...
