All reviewsForza Motorsport 42011
5 out of 5 starsI don't do driving sims. I've given them a shot, but archaic design and license tests turned me off.

Add in some bland level design and multiplayer that doesn't amount to more than a…
Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 32011
5 out of 5 starsThis is really only the second Call of Duty game I've gotten deep into, the first being MW2. That game hooked me like maybe no other multiplayer shooter ever, and this makes minor tweaks that keep me coming back over and over. Support class really changes everything for me. I love it that I can help my team even if I can't string together a bunch of kills. Single-player isn't great, but is serviceable. It can be…
