    Hitman: Blood Money
    All in all, however, Hitman Blood Money is a worthwhile experience. The satisfaction of seamlessly pulling off an assassination and raking in the highest reward makes all the trial and error worthwhile and, frustration aside, the act of playing through a mission again in an attempt to end up with less notoriety or more money becomes challenging rather than tedious.

    Test Drive Unlimited
    Its slower pace might put off the usual crowd, but those with the patience to explore the immense island and unlock its many secrets won't be disappointed.

    Street Fighter II' Hyper Fighting
    The conversion to the Xbox 360 isn’t perfect, but it does the job. For the love, everyone stop using Ryu and Ken!

    Nervous Brickdown
    Incredibly fun and unique, but it can become frustrating. A good bet for fans of old school twitch action.

    Guilty Gear Isuka
    GG Boost mode adds in a nice change of pace, seamlessly blending a complicated tournament fighter with a traditional, simplistic side-scrolling beat-em-up; Multi-tap support makes for great 4-player party fun.

    Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Vegas 2
    Vegas 2 would have worked better if it cut out the single player entirely and added more to he multiplayer.

    The Godfather: The Don's Edition
    Graphical upgrades, adjustments to the combat system, new missions, and additional content (there are more warehouses, hubs, rackets and such) make it the version that offers the most bang for the buck.

    Final Fantasy Fables: Chocobo's Dungeon
    Chocobo's Dungeon takes a strict gameplay structure, bends it for the sake of accessibility and then builds something new on it to enhance it further without entirely breaking the game.

    Wolf of the Battlefield: Commando 3
    For $10, you get a great presentation, packing plenty of action, three difficulties, scoreboards, and online play.

    Marc Ecko's Getting Up: Contents Under Pressure
    Overall this is a really solid game that has the potential to be so much more. Unfortunately the repetitive missions and ho-hum gameplay hold it back.

    Shadowrun
    Shadowrun is far from perfect and the things that are missing will definitely be missed by many, but it is a very fun take on an old FPS formula and offers addictive gameplay that will make you overlook otherwise major flaws in game design.

    Worms
    It loses a few points due to the price, but it's an otherwise fine game.

    Star Ocean: Till the End of Time
    A brilliant, if somewhat belated, RPG with a gripping, unique story and one of the best combat systems of any RPG.
    • 78 Metascore

    Baldur's Gate: Dark Alliance II
    While it does have its share of bugs and bad points, overall this game is well worth buying if you enjoy the genre. The multitude of items and armors keep things interesting, while socketed items and armor take customization to higher levels.

    Dig Dug
    If you’ve downloaded Pac-Man, Frogger and the like already, you’ll have more of the same fun with Dig Dug, once you get past the less-than-perfect controls that plague all these games.
    • 78 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Hitman: Contracts
    Essentially, if you liked the gameplay and subject matter of its predecessor, you’ll enjoy Hitman: Contracts all the more. If violence and suspense aren’t your style, you’d best look elsewhere.

    Hot Shots Golf: Open Tee
    Newcomers to the genre who want a light-hearted golf experience will appreciate the game’s intuitive gameplay mechanics. However, those desiring a more in-depth golf experience may not find it here.

    Suikoden Tactics
    Its simple learning curve and stimulating gameplay make it a high recommendation for not only Suikoden fans but also to those who are new to RPG/Strategy gaming.

    Robert Ludlum's The Bourne Conspiracy
    It's fun to be Bourne. Great fighting moves and various takedowns. The story has some gaps, but you can fill them in if you're familiar with the movies.

    Pinball Hall of Fame: The Williams Collection
    An excellent pinball title and a perfect dose of retro action that won't get old fast.
    • 71 Metascore

    Shrek 2
    It has all the elements needed in a movie-based video game, and in some aspects even goes above and beyond that. However, the lasting appeal of the game leaves a lot to be desired. If they had just thrown in another gameplay mode, this game could have been spectacular.

    Super Monkey Ball: Banana Blitz
    Fans of the series will no doubt find exactly what they are looking for, while some will struggle with the hard-to-master controls.
    • 77 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Lego Indiana Jones: The Original Adventures
    Like Lego Star Wars before it, it's a worthy homage to a classic movie franchise.
    • 62 Metascore
    • 79 Critic Score
    Mario Party 8
    Bottom line is that if you love Mario Party, you’ll still love Mario Party 8. If you don’t love the Mario Party games, this one isn’t going to do anything that will change your mind, even with the Wii controls.

    NFL Head Coach
    It's not perfect, but it's worth a look.

    • 79 Critic Score
    Tiger Woods PGA Tour 07
    Remarkably similar to the console version. The portable offering will no doubt find a home with fans of the series. Just a few more tweaks and it could draw an even larger, more enthusiastic gallery.
    • 73 Metascore
    • 79 Critic Score
    Yoshi Touch & Go
    Offers some novelty, and a good casual gaming experience, but nothing that takes it beyond that.
    • 56 Metascore
    • 79 Critic Score
    Don King Presents: Prizefighter
    Don King Presents Prizefighter is a competent boxing game that is fun to play and which offers an entertaining career mode. That's all it is, however, and isn't really going to blow anyone away.
    • 63 Metascore
    • 79 Critic Score
    Red Steel
    It is a fun and skilled gamer experience that requires some learning and patience. You will enjoy Red Steel the first time around, but I don’t see any space for replayability value.
    • 81 Metascore
    • 79 Critic Score
    Assassin's Creed
    A great game that has lots of great features, but is also lacking in the fundamentals.
