If you are still stuck on the edge of strategy games, hanging on to what you can before delving into the real-time games that seem more popular now – your are going to love this game.

Taken as a scripted series of events the gameplay can be engaging, particularly after an unusual plot twist.

Unfortunately for all of NOLF’s good points, the controls just make the game too frustrating to be worth investing any time in the title.

"Fight Night 2004" is better on all levels, but if you are a Rocky fan or just want to go head up versus a buddy, Legends will give you the action. Just make sure that you time your combos right and know how to block and maneuver, because all it takes is one punch to throw you down.

Costing only $5 bucks, PS3 gamers that enjoy old-school arcade-style gaming won’t find a much better value than the next-generation brick-breaker Hyperballoid HD.

Sure, it's not a brainy game by any means. This is simple, arcade action unspoiled by any complicated puzzles or difficult navigation.

It's only too bad that some of the elements that were only loosely introduced could not have been made more of a focus or an option in the game.

All in all, Kickbeat is a good game, but overpriced for its market.

So while the grading is still off, and the song selection is still scant, PaRappa has so much charm in its songs that it's still worthwhile all of these years later, whether you're revisiting it or playing it for the first time.

Only bother with DBZ:B if you are a steadfast, utterly devoted fan of the series, otherwise steer clear of this title and getting your fighting game fix elsewhere.

There are a lot better music action titles out there.

While the game features its own amount of idiosyncrasies when it comes to the menus and interface, and a steep learning curve, there is some fun to be had, even if it takes a while to get to that point.

There are legions of kids out there that want to be firefighters and this game offers a little look into that career.

The biggest hurdle that I had - having put many, many hours into Elite Beat Agents - is wrapping my brain around not lifting the stylus from the screen. I had to fight my urge to just start tapping, which is my own conditioned problem.

It is hard to get excited about the game. It certainly isn't an embarrassment, and huge Spidey fans will likely find lots to love here, but everything has a “been there, done that” aura about it.

The game's graphics are now dated as compared to the latest technical offerings from the likes of "Half- Life 2."

While NCAA March Madness 07 isn’t without flaws in both its gameplay and presentation values, there certainly is a vast improvement from the franchise’s final appearance on the original Xbox last year.

Fun to play but it's riddled with quirks and some problems.

Offers fun, fast, and wide-open game play in the vein of Tony Hawk, even with the disappointing multiplayer aspect.

Both the exasperating controls and misuse of resources can be unforgiving and crippling to the gameplay progress, but careful and patient gamers that acclimate to both will find an amazing survivor-horror story with plenty of hours of gameplay.

An above average game that will be loved by all fans of the X-Files series, but those gamers who aren’t fans of the series will find a game that requires you to know a little too much about the back story to appreciate the nuances of every character and meeting.

It's too one dimensional – violence being the answer to all the Revolution missions without a stealth objection or changing environments to consider.

No franchise was built in a day, and I’m afraid it might take another installment before CivCity Rome lives up to its potential.

It simply seems like an animal taken out of its native habitat and dropped in the middle of some alien world. If you have a PC, I can think of no reason to recommend the PS2 version.

Something that I believe the RPG genre on the PS2 really needs: a hardcore, difficult RPG that appeals to the gamers that grew up playing the classics on the SNES.

I've had fun with Resident Evil 6 but that could be attributed to playing on Amateur. As written previously in this review, Amateur blunts ammo scarcity and control issues, makes things easier to kill, and sidesteps a lot of quicktime events, but it also allows forgiveness some of the really obvious backtracking the game puts the player through.

Having some smarter AI and more purposeful stealth elements would have gone a long way.

Playing off the huge popularity contests on television that has everybody that watches them dreaming of that being them on stage being adored by millions, the Sims 3 provides that same level of daydreaming-of-stardom to individual Sims 3 players with The Sims 3 Showtime Limited Edition.
