    Had the comedy not fallen so flat and completely undermined what is otherwise a great story to follow, I seriously would have considered this as a personal RPG of the Year contender for last year seeing that the gameplay is just as fun as any RPG that came out in 2004.

    The game is way too simplistic for sophisticated gamers and becomes too much of a challenge for the kiddies.

    If you're tired of watching the same aerobic videos over and over, or need some motivation to get in shape, give Yourself!Fitness a try and actually use your console (or PC) as a path to a healthier lifestyle.

    The gunplay just has that “right” feeling to it that makes shooting enemy after enemy extremely satisfying. It’s too bad that the controls, story, and voice acting weren’t fully realized, because this game could have been great.

    The game holds about 40-60 hours just playing the single player campaign, and if Capcom could (or even would) go through and solidfy the gameplay elements and features they’ve instilled, Monster Hunter could really be a killer franchise. Until then, rent it first.

    As a total package, Katamari Damacy is one of the most original, imaginative, and purely entertaining games to come along in years.

    If you are a hardcore online player, Battlefront should have you traveling that galaxy far, far away. Unless you fall into that category or you are just a die-hard Star Wars geek, give the game a test drive from your local rental store.

    The game is easy to pick up and play, the sound and graphics are spectacular, and the amount of content jammed onto this DVD is just mind-boggling.

    You'll get about four to five hours out of the game for each character on Easy, and about an hour or two more for each difficulty level, depending on your skills.

    Flat out awful mission and objective designs tear down what is really only a mediocre-at-best third person shooter engine.

    Demon Stone just happens to be in a more frantic, third-person mode, yet the same immersion is multiplied ten or twenty fold. You’d have to be pretty jaded to dismiss this game without giving respect to Stormfront for pushing the visual envelope on the memory-starved PlayStation 2 and bringing gamers who’ve never experienced a Forgotten Realms game a taste of one of the worlds of D&D.

    We waited about five years for a beautiful, immersive, and imaginative roleplaying game, but were given something that doesn't deserve to lick the dirt off of "Morrowind's" feet.

    For twenty bucks you get a deep and challenging fighter with fantastic high-resolution graphics, 26 characters, and 9 gameplay modes including solid Xbox Live play that supports Voice Chat, Friends, and weekly ranking scoreboards. This is easily one of the best game deals on any console, period.

    Dedicated followers of the Silent Hill mythology will find plenty to sink their teeth into with a solid eight-hour adventure and multiple endings, and the new “Room” mechanics and intriguing plot might even snare a few newcomers.

    The game’s controls are simplistic and some of the tightest out there.

    One thing that’s subtle-yet-striking is that you can tell the difference when you hit someone and when you’re getting being hit by the way the screen shakes.

    Sounds like the American dream of most 18 - 25 year old males, right? Too bad the game never really breaks free from mediocrity and ends up being far too much work for just some quick flashes of the shirt puppies.

    You have the nasty frame rate issue that can’t seem to be shaken. Honestly, the same company that made this is responsible for the Need For Speed Underground series, and we still can’t fix this problem for a game with lower-end graphics and less programming technicalities?

    There's a lot to like about what's here, and if Namco can take it to the next level depth-wise, like adding more cars and parts while keeping that same attention to detail in the driving model and making it even more realistic, they'll have the next big racing franchise all wrapped up.

    The game delivers on everything possible, which should make for some happy Southern boys. All of your favorite racers are in tow, but working through your own career really plays out better than expected.

    After taking a couple of Prozacs and some beer, you might get a little calmed down from playing this game. All in all, WWE: Day of Reckoning tries to melt together the best parts of WCW/nWo Revenge and Here Comes The Pain into one title. However, the result is nothing but a failed mockery of two classic grappling titles.
