Has its rough edges but I probably spent more time than was necessary playing it because I was enjoying it!- Armchair Empire

It's a solid title and it'll pay for itself if you can addict your significant other to Dr. Mario's gameplay.- Armchair Empire

It's unfortunate that the simple gameplay hasn't held up well over the years, because most of the fun here is had through shear nostalgia (whipping candles, etc).- Armchair Empire

This is the only Zelda game I can think of that used experience points to level-up. Other than that, you're dealing with a typical (and engrossing) Legend of Zelda experience.- Armchair Empire

Provides an excellent source of platforming at a very moderate price tag. There can’t be enough good said about this title as it serves as a remake of one of the early titles that changed the face of gaming forever.- Armchair Empire

Outrun 2 may not be the best racer out there but the infusion of nostalgia, speed and fun make for a satisfying arcade racing experience.- Armchair Empire

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

Action fans owe it to themselves to play Otogi 2: Immortal Souls. Don't be fooled by its art house sensibility – this is non-stop action and it has everything you want, plus a little extra.- Armchair Empire

Fills a void on the PC, that gray area between Freddy Fish and "Half-Life 2."- Armchair Empire

- Critic Score
There’s a minimal amount of modes, the fighting is too similar to just about every other fighting game on the market, and it doesn’t even look all that nice.- Armchair Empire

It's geared toward younger gamers specifically because the level of difficulty and simplicity alleviates boredom.- Armchair Empire

After some initial frustration, which I'll admit was high, it's really a game worth playing for the epic feel and chaos of open-field warfare.- Armchair Empire

With so many options available and constant re-evaluations about the situation I didn't feel the creep of boredom even if most of the enemies are pushovers.- Armchair Empire

Flaws are in short supply. It's easy to save, the control is great, the presentation awesome, and the gameplay deep and addictive.- Armchair Empire

I didn’t have much fun playing Leisure Suit Larry: Magna Cum Laude and if any old-school adventure fan is thinking about purchasing MCL I’d urge them to re play the old games because they’re more fun.- Armchair Empire

The PS2 version suffers from some absolutely brutal load times. Every time that you start to talk with a character you can expect a 30 second wait, and every time that you head to a new area, you can expect a 45-60 second wait. Not exactly a great way to keep people in the game.- Armchair Empire

A game that would be closer to an interactive episode of the show rather than a proper video game.- Armchair Empire

Had it featured the original songs by the original artists and had a more workable interface, it could have been lots of fun.- Armchair Empire

If you're a fan of adventure games, staying away from Syberia II is like refusing to drink water in the scorching desert because it's not cold enough.- Armchair Empire

Some objects in the environments look aliased and you’ll occasionally see some texture pop-in problems as well.- Armchair Empire

From the pure amount of massive content available, I'm sure that most gamers will not run out of things to do with Underground 2.- Armchair Empire

In terms of challenge and entertainment Mario Pinball Land is a good choice for a long flight or a series of shorter periods.- Armchair Empire

A lack of online support and, more prominently, the cheesy-bad story mode are negatives in THUG2, and represent a stumble for the franchise.- Armchair Empire

The days when the new Tony Hawk games were one of the highlights of the year are gone, but THUG 2 still offers plenty of joy for gamers that haven't left the genre behind.- Armchair Empire

Codename Panzers does an effective job of stripping away the standard base building options and replacing them with a strategic core for battles that is thoroughly engaging.- Armchair Empire
