It's a game I can call cute, fun and engaging without the expected "for a licensed title" caveat in the fine print. For its platforming genre, intended audience and even a reasonably more expansive group, Ice Age: Dawn of the Dinosaurs, though brief and simple, is a success. There are some studio-issue clips in some of the grander cut scenes, making for easy eye candy, but even the in-engine cut scenes are sharp enough and well animated. Ice Age is spot-on entertainment for children aged about 6 to perhaps 12 on the high side, and it's even entertaining for adults who want a hybrid platformer with lots of varied action in most levels, but without putting us through the wringer. Basically, the title is a good choice for quick summer play."

why would i just buy a game to boost a fictional score that does nothing for me?
whats the point of 1k'ing? does it give like a 200 points boost? ive got 2 games suck at 985 with 2 achiev each worth 10 and 5. dont see the point of wasting 100+ hours on em.

Ice Age borrows heavily from established franchises and does nothing to separate it from the crowd but its winning factor is it isn't broken. Sometimes its all one can ask of a game and compared to the last twenty years of bad movie titles simply working is a tough expectation."
The Game Guys have officially opened up voting for the 2nd Annual Game Guys' Gamers' Choice Awards. Everybody who votes is entered into a contest to win one of five system-specific prize packs. Each prize pack contains two system-specific games and one accessory, except for the PC prize pack which contains three PC games.
Is it sad that I care less about the actual voting than I do winning the free games?
