    Those who loved previous Thief games will equally enjoy the latest title, though it is by no means innovative.

    The newest in the Splinter Cell series is a fairly solid game, but lacks a bit of polish, and won't appeal to everyone.
    • 80 Metascore

    For a full game, Prologue is lacking very highly. Yet for its lower price, and the knowledge that it isn't the full game and is only a taste of what's to come, we're left embittered and wanting more, better, and sooner.

    The bottom line is that Battlefront is an A-list rental; great for a weekend of Star Wars geekery with a bunch of friends, offering solid fun for the first four or five hours. After that, well, to impersonate Yoda: whether or not to own it you will want, only the future will tell.

    A good motocross game that qualifies as a rental for everyone, and a purchase for those that truly love the sport of dirt bike racing.

    Try the Mario baseball game for cute, or a more realistic MLB title for robust realism.

    A mediocre follow-up to the original Champions of Norrath. Good, but not $50 worth of good.
    • 76 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    If played for too long, I found the game to be rather tedious and repetitive, but in short busts (about one mission per seating, I would say) the game can provide fun.

    • 72 Critic Score
    Brave Story isn’t for everyone. The storyline drags along at a snails pace and the lack of customization options doesn’t benefit the replay value.
    • 76 Metascore
    • 74 Critic Score
    While lacking in many areas, Star Fox Command is easily the best Star Fox game in years.
    • 76 Metascore
    • 71 Critic Score
    The Cube version lacks innovation, is disappointing and is almost a complete copy of the GBA version.
    • 76 Metascore

    Despite control issues Wii Sports is probably one of the only launch titles that offers so much fun from such a small package.
    • 76 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    While you certainly won’t be disappointed with the quality of the conversions or the usability of the collection, the game's prolonged existence has almost deliberately been removed by the addition of infinite credits.

    Rugby 08 is at the end of the day an average re-release with some updated features.
    • 74 Metascore
    • 67 Critic Score
    Konami needs to go back and re-think the direction of this series. A somewhat disappointing hardcore hack and slash game for fans of pure action.
    • 73 Metascore
    • 73 Critic Score
    While DDR fans may be a bit put off by the “natural” layout of the buttons, the stellar music and fun graphics will have you making room on your floor for a new dance pad.
    • 73 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Rather than focus on a cleanly executed adventure game, the designers poorly implemented a number of unnecessary gameplay mechanics like combat and stealth.
    • 73 Metascore
    • 67 Critic Score
    LarryBoy and the Bad Apple for the GBA is clever and fun but also far too short, and is best suited for younger/inexperienced gamers.
    • 73 Metascore
    • 65 Critic Score
    There are so many problems caused by pure sloppiness that it is difficult to recommend it. However, if you are willing to overlook the terrible controls and lacking extras and sub-par interface, Metal Slug Anthology can provide a very rewarding experience.
    • 73 Metascore
    • 74 Critic Score
    As enjoyable as any of the FIFA incarnations, but it just has not reached the level of simulation that hardcore soccer hooligans are looking for.
    • 73 Metascore
    • 65 Critic Score
    Contact offers a refreshingly unique experience, but it certainly is not for everyone.
    • 72 Metascore
    • 55 Critic Score
    You'll want badly to love it, but only a select few will be able to forgive the flaws.
    • 72 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Budokai Tenkaichi 2 provides an authentic Dragonball Z experience fordie-hard fans, and a decent at best fighting game for the rest of us.
    • 72 Metascore
    • 62 Critic Score
    While a fairly decent attempt at a Dragonball Z game it does not live up to the legacy left behind by the Budokai games.

    As a single player experience, Amped 3 shows lots of humor, creativity and diverse gameplay. Gamers will easily lose three hours in a sitting, trying to unlock additional challenges and courses.
    • 72 Metascore
    • 68 Critic Score
    If you’re looking for a good DBZ fighter, go to your nearest bargain bin and pick up Budokai 3. If you’re looking for the ultimate Dragonball Z simulation game, go pick up Budokai Tenkaichi 3. Both games are cheaper and provide better gaming experiences than Burst Limit.

    A confusing storyline, chunky graphics, hit and miss controls, and repetitive gameplay make this a game that will only appeal to fans of the anime series.
    • 72 Metascore
    • 65 Critic Score
    A flawed first person shooter, marred by an incredibly frustrating control system, coupled with a dull combat experience.
    • 72 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    It can be fun with two players, but it's a real stretch. With Aggro, there is a sentiment to try it at least once, but we can't recommend more than that.
    • 71 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Hardcore RPG fans that are willing to overlook Wild Arms 5’s obvious faults will likely still get enjoyment out of the title. For everyone else however, there are much better RPGs on the PS2 that are more worth your while.
