    A pretty simplistic game and many people might look at this as a bad thing but I see this as actually what makes the game so fun.
    • 88 Metascore
    • 90 Critic Score
    What makes this game even more impressive is the Xbox Live support, which is honestly the best online squad-based experience out there today.

    Although I will admit Fight Night Round 2 leaves plenty of room improvement, it still is an amazing game on its own merits.
    • 89 Metascore
    • 90 Critic Score
    The only reason this game isn't perfectly fun is because it does once again leave us wanting more, and in that I am referring to online play.
    • 72 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    It combines the old school style gameplay from the games past and it takes on a new aged style as well.
    • 78 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    It has all the making to be a great game but just doesn't do anything to really make it to a great game.
    • 73 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Strategy buffs out there will not find much to Kessen III as the strategy in the game is quite limited.
    • 86 Metascore
    • 90 Critic Score
    I must say that I am very impressed with how smooth the game runs, and how smooth the gameplay is.
    • 58 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    You get the sense that the developers are simply going through the motions and don't didn't bother to offer a refreshing take on the genre.
    • 67 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Undone by the clunky and unpolished on-foot missions. Star Fox: Assault is a missed opportunity for the developers to resurrect the series, which means you probably should give this a miss too.
    • 75 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    The game only makes a good purchase if you are a diehard Gladiator fan; otherwise the game is a perfect rental title.
    • 89 Metascore
    • 90 Critic Score
    One thing really neat about this mode is the props in which you can place on the court to add to the difficulty and style of your dunk. It's a simple getaway from the main draw but it's [definitely] a worthwhile one.
    • 77 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    For those of you fans of the original wishing for better online support should definitely check out Return to Arms, because I think it just may have what you are looking for.

    • 90 Critic Score
    The best soccer game on the Xbox to date.
    • 56 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    A pretty mediocre game. Unless you're a huge fan of the TV series, you can probably just either shy away from this one or keep as a back up choice for a rental.
    • 68 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    The game doesn't do anything to go above and beyond what is already out on the market today. If you are a fan of the comic book then this is going to be a great game for you, if not this is a perfect rental.
    • 63 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    A very mediocre Japanese RPG's, which unfortunately in this day and age that's just not good enough.
    • 57 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    This is one of those games that of course tried to put the "open ended" gameplay into play, but failed to do that, and threw in some clunky controls with it.
    • 86 Metascore
    • 90 Critic Score
    I am a huge fan of open-ended action games, and this one just really did the business for me. There is still just so much action in the game and the storyline is so interesting that it's hard not to just sit back and say wow, this is a fun game.

    MechAssault 2 struggles with its single player mode and strives with its multiplayer support to still bring you another great Mech experience.
    • 78 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    The one and only thing in the game that hasn't changed is the fun factor, which thankfully is still alive and well.
    • 86 Metascore
    • 90 Critic Score
    It's hard to hide the fact that the game has great replay value, excellent gameplay mechanics, and a very intuitive storyline.
    • 61 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Rogue Agent just isn't that fun of a game because of the somewhat sluggish gameplay, the lack of a real good story, and pretty average multiplayer.
    • 78 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    It's fast paced, has beautiful visuals, and just a whole lot of fun.
    • 85 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    For those of you who never got the privilege of playing the original, or want to relive those fond memories, the game is a good purchase for you!
    • 91 Metascore
    • 90 Critic Score
    Combines great stealth action with a superb storyline and excellent visuals.
    • 75 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    A great game? No, but the game did have some neat ideas and a few interesting mini-games.
    • 61 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    The game just doesn't come through like it had the potential to do. Spider-Man 2 just didn't take advantage of the new hardware and left us with a very average side scrolling action game.
    • 80 Metascore
    • 90 Critic Score
    One of the, if not the best, best squad based shooters on the market today.
    • 65 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    The one thing that does however drag the game down is the poor computer AI, which at first can be funny but after a while just becomes a big annoyance.
