    Farscape: The Game
    Misfires on pretty much all cylinders.

    The Legend of Alon D'ar
    While a good story can sometimes save even the most mediocre of RPGs, and The Legend of Alon D'ar does provide a compelling beginning and plot, the pacing is so slow that only the most patient will make it through to the end.

    Jazz and Faust
    Its beautifully rendered backgrounds and intriguing premise aren't enough to cover the fact that the program resembles an early 1990s point-and-click scavenger hunt, released ten years too late.

    Alien Blast: The Encounter
    Contrary to what many hardcore gamers frequently assume, I believe there are still a lot of people who would enjoy this kind of brain-free, white-knuckle virtual leisure activity that brings back the simplicity of earlier days.

    Timeline (2000)
    Though there are minor problems with the graphics system, control scheme and interface, the primary drawback is that an experienced player can fly though it in around three hours and thirty minutes.

    Freedom: First Resistance
    With clearly low production values, this game is ultimately quite boring. Dreary drudgery is what you have to slog through to get to the end, and believe me it is just not worth it.

    SuperPower
    A key problem may simply be that the international system is too hard to replicate under its current condition of relative anarchy.

    Deep Raider
    To paraphrase a writer from "Mystery Science Theater 3000," this game hurt me.

    Army Men: Sarge's War
    Had the absurdity of the setting been more efficiently exploited for humor value, the many shortcomings might be more easily overlooked. As it stands, this title comes across as a last minute, off-the-cuff port from consoles to PC that skimped as often as possible.

    Tsunami 2265
    The complete lack of innovation and diversity, along with the utterly draining repetitiveness of the obstacles you encounter, suck most of the joy out of the gameplay experience.
    • 34 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    Industry Giant
    Occasionally I came across against a scenario or mission that was entertaining for a while, but the game wasn't different enough often enough.

    Bruce Lee: Quest of the Dragon
    While there are some isolated elements of Bruce Lee: Quest of the Dragon that work, such as the extensive collection of moves and authentic sound effects, they are very tiny islands in a swirling maelstrom of poor gameplay and distressing visuals.
    • 31 Metascore
    • 40 Critic Score
    Sniper: Path of Vengeance
    Possessing a sketchy storyline, abysmal artificial intelligence and repetitive gameplay, nothing about it engrosses you in the action and keeps you coming back for more.
    • 27 Metascore
    • 40 Critic Score
    Mission: Humanity
    Unfortunately, the unbalanced squad-combat and wrap-around maps are not enough to pull this one away from the Pit of Despair.
    • 25 Metascore
    • 30 Critic Score
    Batman: Dark Tomorrow
    The vexing controls and camera system, combined with the poor enemy AI and simplified combat, make even a weekend rental of Dark Tomorrow tough to justify.

    Lightweight Ninja
    The title of this game is ironically accurate, as I have not encountered a platform side-scroller this lightweight in years. There is simply nothing to recommend.

    Humvee Assault
    The graphics are pretty and you get what you came for - cheap, mindless action. If you want even a smidgen more, however, pass.

    • 70 Critic Score
    Castle Strike
    The single-player campaign does a great job of going against the build-a-base-and-kill-everything grain that is the stock-and-trade of the RTS scene. Plus, it infuses some inspired missions into the mix, keeping you interested and coming back for more.

    Against Rome
    There are some good ideas, like the grouping banner and the ability to plunder, that should’ve come off a lot better, but instead thwarted the gameplay.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 30 Critic Score
    Mob Enforcer
    Every single aspect of the game falls short of the industry average. What was supposed to be an adrenaline-fueled trip through the heady yesteryears of prohibition and mob rule is instead a tedious grind through repetitive and uninspired drudgery.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Steel Saviour
    For an avowed lover of the 2D scrolling space shooter, Steel Saviour is an answer to prayers. With mesmerizing graphics and audio, an intuitive control system, rapid-fire gameplay, and even a solid background story, this release definitely delivers on what it promises.
