A Dart Without Feathers

NASCAR 2011: The Game Screenshot

HIGH Going from last to first over eight laps at Darlington.

LOW Getting spun out in turn four at Martinsville and receiving a pit road speeding penalty rather than a caution flag.

WTF Bump-drafting at Martinsville? Kevin Conway winning races? Jeff Burton taking the pole every week? What bizarre alternate universe is this?

Monster Tale Screenshot Monster Tale Screenshot

HIGH Dying on a boss near the end of the game, causing me to actually wake up and focus..

LOW Encountering a defect in the evolution system that blocked my progress and caused me to give up on it.

WTF Seriously, if you max out the xp on a form, you can no longer unlock any forms that branch from it? What sense does that make?!

I Need a Brighter, More Durable Paint

Disney Epic Mickey Screenshot

HIGH Painting in the two images of Oswald in the Dark Beauty throne room, a case where the art and mechanics work perfectly together.

LOW The final boss sequence (occupying almost the last quarter of the game) consists mostly of running around previously visited or horribly dull areas, popping zits on tentacles.

WTF The animatronic Goofy is incredibly creepy-looking.
