Your worst enemy is not the Dark Side but the simple act of trying to jump from one platform to another. The isometric perspective makes it difficult to judge distance and position, and the actual act of jumping is marred by touchy controls.

The biggest issues players will likely have are the annoying time-based objectives, sloppy control in pedaling from one spot to the next, and confusing environments desperately needing some sort of onscreen map or compass.

Diehard rodeo fans will most likely find something to like about Professional Bull Rider 2, though the very nature of the real sport results in repetitive gameplay.

The underlying problem is that despite being the originator of the first-person shooter, Wolfenstein 3D just doesn't hold up nearly ten years after its original release as PC shareware.

This type of game doesn’t lend itself well to repeated visits due to the simplistic control and driving requirements (gas, nitro, repeat).

With no challenge, fishing becomes boring and repetitive -- might as well go down to the corner store and pick up some wrapped bass for dinner.

The competition is rough and cutthroat at times, but only by mastering the intricacies of 14th-17th century European commerce and politics will you become the richest, most powerful and evil man in Italy.

Sadly, the third time is not the charm for this series, and the developers would have been better off remaking either of the first two games and throwing in a few enhancements to increase the replay value.

Despite an extra year in development, Konami's game is still not quite ready for prime time.

Most significantly, Ruins of Myth Drannor does not accomplish the depth of story, the detail of character customization, or the engulfing campaign world that made the original Pool of Radiance such a memorable adventure.

Simple graphics, awkward camera angles, dumb enemies, limited animation, and some questionable control decisions undermine an interesting fighting system peppered with some role-playing aspects and flashes of Matrix-style action.

It combines vibrant colors, fun modes of play, and best of all, large and distinguishable characters.

The Xbox game easily bests the earlier PS2 disc in both frame rate and visual clarity, which are more important to the fun of this title than any other elements.

Surprise, surprise: The Incredible Hulk is yet another boring superhero title on Game Boy Advance, which seems to be the refuse container of choice for action games with little to no redeeming value.

New Legends is so beaten by "Dynasty Warriors 3" on the less powerful PS2 in visuals, control, theme, and playability that you have to pause and scratch your head to figure out how the Xbox is being taken advantage of.

Considering the relatively inexpensive price of "The X-Files: Unrestricted Access" (at the time of review the program was only half the price of most new games), this is an X-Files souvenir well worth the money to the casual watchers and a must-have for the die-hard fan.

The levels are generic in design (for the most part), and the backgrounds are uneven (some are nicely detailed while others are repetitive and/or uninspired), but the 3D-modeled characters are pleasing, the fighting action is enjoyable (despite its flaws).

Featuring inhumane, cold blooded killing and no purpose other than to lay waste to as many fellow human beings as possible, Postal truly stands in a zone of its own – a killing zone.

The entire game from start to finish can be completed in under an hour, with level design as generic as the title.

There's not nearly enough depth to this title, so replay value is completely dependant on how players enjoy the demolition derby action. If that's really all you want, then Totaled! should be viewed as a smashing success.

It has some serious flaws in the gameplay that ultimately keep it from joining the ranks of the truly inspired wrestling titles.

There are several logic flaws that severely diminish the game's storyline.

An average design effort that suffers from rushed production (the "save game" screen is primarily made up of huge blocky text and boxes) and a flawed engine.

As it stands, the game is worth briefly exploring, despite the small annoyances, but loses its luster when one begins to think of what it could (or should) have been.

Driving Emotion Type-S is to racing what fingernails are to a chalkboard.

A weak conversion of what was arguably a middling title to begin with. Though it starts off fast and smooth, the action quickly becomes touch and "d'oh."

The storyline for this game is dull.

The action tends to get repetitive, which is not helped by the lack of enemy variety.
