The most disappointing part though was completely raping each boss in the game with a flurry of missiles. There is little challenge. This shortens the game into four or five hours, making it quick and dirty for game players.

The multiplayer is the best reason to play the game. It’s not worth it for the one-player alone, rather for the great experience with a group.

The concept is well and good, and works well – except for the fact that you still must slow down to use Knuckles and Tails (or the equivalent member in one of the three other teams in the game). These are the moments that the game truly lags, and once again the shoddy camera has come back to once again make the game a pain.

The one downfall of this game is that it becomes easy over a short amount of time. Even against the toughest teams, the game becomes fairly simple once you have mastered how to scramble and pass efficiently.

An exciting action game that features a plethora of shooting. While it does this aspect well, the main selling point is the fantastic sense of humor.

A fantastic game that no GameCube owner should be without. I enjoyed it and my girlfriend absolutely loved it.

Quite simply, the game offers nothing that you can’t get in the other games, and can’t have a better time getting in the other games.

From a graphical perspective, Insomniac continues to amaze me with their vibrant worlds that just explode with color.

While there isn’t much there, it’s fun to play while it lasts.

It just seems to be not nearly as epic as "Grand Theft Auto". However playing for the different paths extends the lifetime of the game considerably.

The new game is a little bland, and just doesn’t really excite the same way that the old ones do. It’s the worst game under the Ninja Turtle franchise, and is worth a rental at most.

The best wrestling game on the market for any platform.

Feels like "Castlevania Lite". It's got all of the story, the visual style, the whip, the weapons, and the enemies. What’s missing is the rich fulfilling satisfaction of the rest of the game – the RPG elements, the total depth that has been established since the PlayStation and Game Boy versions of the game.

While the game might be old - it's still one of the best games ever made. [Grade = A+]

The most interesting mode is a capture the flag type mode. I love it in first-person shooters so it only makes sense that I would love it here. While there is some lag in multiplayer games, it isn’t enough to make the game unplayable.

While a pretty easy game even with shocks and grim reaper, is a pretty fun ride.

There are a lot of difficult levels, a lot of difficult enemies. It’s awesome. I appreciate a good challenge in today’s games, and JAK II offers it. It’s plenty long too, and will keep you playing for a good time.

While the gameplay is pretty tight, it’s the addition of charisma and squad mates that sets the game apart.

The visuals have been given an upgrade too. Now some of the songs feature the music video for the song playing in the background. It’s really cool and one of the better features to be implemented in the game.

The game provides an interesting take on platform games and has a nice combination of platform-jumping and puzzle solving gameplay.

Feels like it's just a block of jello. It could have been molded into something new, but instead, Capcom just left it as is, a block. It's uninspired, generic, and there is no reason to play it.

The big improvement over the PlayStation game is the laws that govern each battlefield... It helps diversify the battles quite a bit and keeps things interesting.

While this might not be the most in-depth game out there, WWE WrestleMania XIX is one of the best wrestling games on the market right now.

The coolest new addition to GameDay is the voice-recognition features. Those of you who bought SOCOM: US Navy Seals, and have the VR headset will be able to call your plays, send men in motion, and even hike the ball.

The graphics are beautiful. The back drops are excellent and the character models look great. Color abounds in this eye-candy filled title. I wish some of the animations and moves had been changed up a bit, but what are you going to do?

Some steps in the right direction have been made, and with a little refining, the 2005 version should be competitive. Still, you probably will prefer "NCAA Football" over this.

One cool thing about this game is that, for owners of Deadly Alliance, you can hook up with this game and go head to head with a friend.

One cool thing about NFL Fever 2004 is the ability to save the game whenever you want. If you’ve got to run out for a bit and don’t want to leave the system on, you can save your game in the middle of the quarter.

From a graphical standpoint, the game is mind-blowing. The characters and vehicles all look good, but what's really impressive is the backgrounds around each race and how fast they go screaming by.

A pretty rock-hard game. While it is somewhat short, the game is action packed and the three-form combat modes add a lot to the game.

Even the fans of the show may want to "try-before-you-buy" because there really isn’t much to do after beating the game once.

The best football game of the season. Unlike a lot of football games, the changes to this game aren’t just cosmetic. The result is the most realistic football game you can own.

As good as Madden 2004 is, I distinctly remember playing this game before. Twice actually. I know there isn’t a ton that can be changed, and I know that the console versions don’t change much, but there can be something done here I’m sure.

To be perfectly honest, this is one of the best looking Game Boy Advance games on the market...[and] one of the best arcade style racers on the Game Boy Advance.

One of the best Sea-Doo racing games released.

You should buy it because of the ridiculous courses, because of the energy level, because it’s a racing game that really does overwhelm you and in a lot of ways challenges you to be smart and play with your head – to a much greater extent than SSX.

This is the best game to be released this year, even eclipsing "Wind Waker." [Grade = A+]

The sound is the best part of the game, with all of the fight songs, and one of the best crowds ever.

This game really shines with its environment models. Every part of the environment seems real, from the grass swaying in the breeze or the ripples on the water as you run through it.

More than just an expansion - technically, I think the game could be considered a sequel with all the depth that is in the game. If you have Reign of Chaos, this is a must buy for you and RTS fans everywhere.

The moves and modifers require a lot more memorization and button tapping. It's frustrating and there is quite the learning curve on the controls, so you can't just jump in.

One of the best games to hit the market this year, portable or otherwise.

A rental at best. It's too short, and too repetitive to be a purchase.

The game does suffer from a bit of a slowdown when there are numerous zombies on-screen.

The camera is by far one of the worst in a 3d game ever. When you're zipping along, it's not too big a deal, but in any sort of exploration mode you might as well just give up now.

Another complaint I have with the game is the map. No longer do you have much control of where your character goes.

A vast improvement over the first game. The game is much sharper in the gameplay and in graphics, and is a much more enjoyable experience all around.

One thing that Mace Griffin has going for it is its graphics. The real-time lighting on weapons and animations are just awesome.

The cool thing about the online mode is that you can join games already in progress.

While the gameplay is still fairly solid, it just isn’t quite as fun as it used to be. It didn’t blow me away and make me want to play for hour after hour.

The game looks awesome for a GBA title. The 3D engine used for the game looks great, and since there isn’t a whole lot to animate in space and there are only a few ships on-screen at one time, there isn’t much slowdown on this beautiful game.

Probably one of the best looking games on the Xbox, no questions asked.

The only downfall is that you might find it a little short, but it still is one of the most unique titles I've played in a while and comes recommended.

While there may not be many differences between this game and its predecessor, this still is the best motorcycle game on the Xbox.

The game is supposed to be pure action and loads of fun, and Fistfull of Boomstick certainly delivers.

With no franchise mode, the game lacks. Yes, you can create your own team but what is the point for one season.

While Enter the Matrix ties in really well with the movie franchise, it isn’t much of a game.

I’m not sure if there was a deadline for the game and the developers just slept through the development process or something, and threw something together at the last minute, but this can’t be what Metro3D was hoping for.

One of the best party games released on the Xbox yet. If you’ve been looking for a fun fighting game to play with some friends, or even alone, this is one to get.

While the game obviously plays like a 2D shooter, the backgrounds are 3D rendered and the game just combines the technology of today with the old-school gameplay perfectly.

Camelot made a great game engine, and until someone can come along with something better, this is the game to beat.

A treat for fans of the original, but it won’t blow you away in any particular aspect.

A no-brainer for anyone that enjoys RPGS.

Maybe wrestling and rap will suit you more than me, or maybe it won’t.

Furious Karting isn’t that furious, or really that extreme to me.

While it does retail for 10 bucks less than most other brand new games, marketing a 5 year old game for 40 bucks is still ridiculous.

The biggest problem I found was control. Nag all you want about the AI, its not that big a deal. But I hardly ever felt like I was in true control of the car that I was driving.

The only reason I won’t give this game an "F" is because of the original voice acting and that the game is only selling for 20 bucks. If not for that, this game should be burned.

A rally fan’s dream come true. While the game suffers a little from graphical glitches, the game handles like a dream and most racing fans will find V-RALLY 3 to be a game that they can play for hours.

An awesome sequel to Frequency and one of the best music games on the PlayStation 2.

There's quite a bit of value in the title. Tons of subquests, and a second quest after you complete it, but the main run-through is just not as satisfactory as Ocarina's was.

With the game’s ability to trade and battle with friends, plus incredible amount of Pokemon to capture and train, you won’t be putting these two down anytime soon.

While AM2 has gone in and added a bunch of modes to the game such as two-player and mini-games, it hasn’t really done anything to make the game any deeper or more enjoyable.

The best fighting game currently out for the Xbox.

What’s so cool about the game is that anyone can pick up and play, and can get into the deep simulation that the game is. I like that fact a lot. [Score = A+]

To be perfectly honest, this is probably one of the worst games I have ever played in my life.

An improvement in just about every way.

The levels are huge now. While they were pretty big before, they were basically straight forward. Not anymore.

Fans of Ocarina will love diving back into one of the best games ever, only with new dungeons. It's hard to say which is better, but if you love a challenge, Master Quest will satisfy your craving.

While Kung Fu Chaos is marketed as a party game intended for four players, I keep finding the single-player mode more riveting and fun.

Falls short by being vastly repetitive and not offering much new to gamers. A rental at best.

A lot better than last year’s incarnation.

The Xbox Live support really adds to the lifespan of the game, so if you’re ever in need of opponent, it feels good to know there is one only a few button presses away.

One of the biggest improvements to the game is the full-fledged air battles.

Where the game really shines in my opinion is the control. I don’t think I’ve ever played a Game Boy Advance game that handles as well as this one.

While the game is visually stunning, the gameplay and sound really bring Black & Bruised down for the count.

The problem is that the game was taken from its original close quarters setting and brought to a more open setting. Something about it just doesn’t feel right.
