Price: $9.99

The Skinny: You play an acrobatic sperm, called a "grimp," on a mission to pollenate the gardens of Eden.

The Good: The game keeps things simple—jump up, stick to something, and swing yourself around to collect pollen and plant seeds. Unlock more seeds and you'll reach the higher planes of the level and eventually activate more Spectra for collection. A cool feature we'll never use is the ability to record your gameplay and automatically upload it to YouTube from your PS3.

The Bad: Miss a swing and you'll find yourself hurtling down toward the beginning of the level, and you'll have to keep doing it all again. Frustrating doesn't begin to cover it.

Smile For the Camera: Hey, Resistance 2 developers! Steal this game's upload feature—We want to upload our alien teabagging videos to YouTube. KTHNXBAI.

Buy, Rent, or Disembowel? You'll either love it or want to murder someone after playing it. Play the demo before purchasing and save yourself 20 years to life.
