    Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3
    If you are a fan of the series, you will be happy with a relatively short, limited freedom of the (not quite) 'shooter on rails' story mode that plays like an interactive Hollywood blockbuster coupled with a strong online co-op and multiplayer experience with new features.

    Star Wars: Republic Commando
    The near-flawless squad-based combat comes at a certain price. The levels often feel very limiting, highly railed, and brimming with scripted sequences. They never even attempt to create the illusion of non-linearity.

    The Lord of the Rings: The Battle for Middle-Earth II - The Rise of the Witch-King
    One of the most commendable aspects of the expansion pack is the inclusion of a revamped version of the War of the Ring turn-based mode.

    Heavy Metal: F.A.K.K. 2
    Now if I can only find that "Nude Julie" patch everybody's been talking about.

    NBA Live 2001
    The fact that EA Sports hasn't adequately dealt with the nagging AI glitches is not nearly enough to seriously diminish the overall impression and the unmatched atmosphere of the series that has been its trademark throughout the years.

    Life is Strange: Episode 2 - Out of Time
    Out of Time may not be as captivating as the first episode, but it leaves plenty to look forward to and answers just enough questions to ask a few more.
    • 78 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Skylanders Trap Team
    Skylanders Trap Team may break the bank a little, but it’s still a great game for kids, little and big alike.
    • 78 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Medal of Honor: Airborne
    Nonetheless, despite some of its shortcomings, I still recommend MoH: Airborne to shooter fans. With a couple of patches that tweak the AI and collision detection, one should overlook the lack of more single-player content as the gameplay experience you'll get is rewarding enough to warrant a purchase.

    Summoner
    Beautiful locations, excellent gameplay, and, basically quite a good RPG.
    • 78 Metascore
    • 85 Critic Score
    Stronghold: Crusader
    Economy and warfare are well balanced and equally exciting. The gameplay is fantastic, and it will require you to think strategically in stead of just massing up units.
    • 78 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Etherlords II
    Sound effects and music are well done as is the extra environmental samples that play during combat and as you travel around the map.
    • 78 Metascore
    • 78 Critic Score
    Need for Speed: Carbon
    EA tries to do a lot with NFS: Carbon, but that still doesn't help me shake the feeling that the accelerated pace of NFS releases is in many ways pointless and counter-productive. It dilutes the overall impression of the franchise, rather than make it more appealing to the fans.

    • 70 Critic Score
    Dead Space 3
    It’s clear that they’ve upped the ante when it comes to action and EA and Visceral are not shying away from this fact, often admitting openly that it was the right course for the series to take. This, however, doesn’t mean they made the right decision.

    Austerlitz: Napoleon's Greatest Victory
    The graphics look atrocious! First things first, the screen resolution is limited to 800x600 with no possibility to change this; the only thing you can turn on is the fog effect, which does look all right, but it utterly kills the gameplay.
    • 78 Metascore
    • 84 Critic Score
    Desperados: Wanted Dead or Alive
    I loved the fact that the characters know how to hide behind corners, pop out to shoot and then return to cover immediately, and the fact that you have to calm your hand for some time before you can fire a sniper-shot.
    • 78 Metascore
    • 90 Critic Score
    Everybody's Gone to the Rapture
    Those that chose to invest their valuable time in this 5 hour gem will be rewarded with one of the most compelling experiences in recent memory.
    • 77 Metascore
    • 79 Critic Score
    Titan Quest
    The combat segment of the action RPG experience is spectacular, the game looks beautiful and it offers an epic journey through a massive single-player campaign. Still, I must admit that my interest in it kept waning as time went on.

    Ground Control: Dark Conspiracy
    There are indeed few novelties. If somebody showed me the thing after a couple of months, I wouldn't be able to tell if it were the original game or the add-on.
    • 77 Metascore
    • 68 Critic Score
    Emperor: Rise of the Middle Kingdom
    Those of you who spent months playing "Caesar III" or "Zeus" can give this game a miss, as it won't bring them anything new at all.

    Geoff Crammond's Grand Prix 4
    The biggest novelty in GP4 is the completely new, better and more efficient engine which provides higher level of detail, and more realistic effects.
    • 77 Metascore
    • 75 Critic Score
    Far Cry Primal
    The lack of mission variety and combat tools hold the game back from being something truly groundbreaking.
    • 77 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Street Fighter V
    Street Fighter V has a lot of potential, but unless you’re training for those ranked matches, that’s all the game will be for you – potential.
    • 77 Metascore
    • 83 Critic Score
    Call of Juarez: Bound in Blood
    Amidst all the generic shooters, Call of Juarez: Bound in Blood is a great relief and offers a surprisingly convincing depiction of the Civil War era, coupled with satisfying gameplay.
    • 77 Metascore
    • 85 Critic Score
    Etherlords
    Etherlords and its 3D fantasy world are capable of holding players glued to the screen for hours.
    • 77 Metascore
    • 94 Critic Score
    FIFA Soccer 2002
    It takes a lot more skill to pass well in FIFA 2002, but that also gives the attacker a lot more options. It grants players more freedom, and consequently more ways of being creative.

    • 77 Critic Score
    Operation Flashpoint: Resistance
    The mission editor and multiplayer (I tried that, but it wasn't a good experience for me) are perfect additions to this extremely popular tactical game. If that kind of thing is your bag, baby, then there is no reason you shouldn't own this game by now.
    • 77 Metascore
    • 85 Critic Score
    Soldiers: Heroes of World War II
    While some RTS fans may not be happy that it does not follow the same Build & Overwhelm pattern of many other RTS titles, the depth and strategy it offers is a welcome change.
    • 77 Metascore
    • 73 Critic Score
    Command & Conquer 3: Kane's Wrath
    Regrettably, Kane's Wrath doesn't exactly do a good job of delivering on the kind of epic single-player experience you'd hope to get after an excellent campaign from the previous game.
    • 77 Metascore
    • 87 Critic Score
    Battlefield 2: Modern Combat
    Somehow the guys at EA have worked some magic by reproducing the Battlefield experience without the expense or hassle that comes with today's gaming PC.
    • 77 Metascore
    • 84 Critic Score
    Quantum Break
    Remedy has, without a doubt, crafted a very creative title with Quantum Break. It’s not going to be the killer exclusive game that so many were looking for with the Xbox One, but it’s definitely been worth the wait. Story gamers will especially delight in replaying the game multiple times to see the various episodes and experience the different paths the game itself can take. For anyone with an Xbox One, Quantum Break is a must-own.
