It quite simply didn’t surpass the original in the place it should have: length.

If I were to describe this game in a single word, I would simple say, "Vast."

A more fleshed out online mode would have put this game right next to the original version.

A very solid one player game coupled with a rock solid multiplayer frag fest.

A good game, but it isn’t nearly as good as the original Deus Ex. While I feel the changes that were made only improved the quality of the game, the overall drop in length, the incredibly stupid AI and the slight graphic downgrade really hurt it in the end.

Guild Wars: Factions is a standalone game instead of being a true expansion pack, so you get 4 character slots and 8 profession to choose from. Luckily, owners of both campaigns can bring over the original 4 character slots and 2 additional ones in Factions.

An excellent mix of exceptional graphics, incredible music and voice acting and incredibly fun gameplay.

Nowhere to run baby, nowhere to hide. The Warriors are going to march straight through your set and there's not a damn thing you can do about it.

I think I found myself enjoying the original game more than the sequel simply due to the story, which is simply a tad bit better.

When it's all said and done, Silmeria is a fantastic RPG and a proud trophy that the Playstation 2 will display as one of the finest "farewell" games. Fans of the series will surely rekindle their love for the Norse-inspired tale of redemption, and the game more than provides on the fan-front.

While it lacks a lot of actual scenes from the new film (it uses more footage from the Two Towers and the Fellowship of the Ring with Gandalf doing voiceovers), it still tells the final part of the story and will spoil many facets of the film.

Darwinia is a game unlike any other, with a mixture of gameplay elements that have been thrust together forming one glorious gameplay experience that has to be played to be believed.

If you are a puzzle fan and hate role-playing games, you'll love it. If you're a role-playing lover who despises puzzle games, you'll want to hug it. If you're a first person shooter fan who loves to kill things, well, you might like this.

Honor Among Thieves does steal a bit from the previous installments, but still ends up beating the rap most franchises suffer from: repetitive game play.

NHL2K6 blends all that is good about hockey, as well as bad, all into one board shattering title. Fans of the 2K series will be able to jump right onto the ice and take over where the last game left off.

When I play this game, it feels utterly complete. I don't find myself thinking that they should have had this thing or left out that thing, because every single bit of it just belongs.

If you can get past the pay-per-month boundry, you'll find yourself enjoying one of the finest online experiences you can play.

The accompanying *PING* sound effect when you hit the soldiers in the head still has me rolling.

With stellar production values, a storyline that ties many of the series lore together, a plethora of replayability in Mercenaries mode, unlock-able characters/costumes and the addition of online co-op; RE5 is one of the best in the series.

In a world where driving titles such as Gran Turismo and Ridge Racer rule, Racing Gears Advance stands out as a breath of fresh air; a driving game that is simply out to entertain the masses with an incredibly developed sense of excitement and panache.

My PSP has never looked (or felt) this good. Do yourself a favor and play this.

The DS has been around for three years and we finally have a fighting game worth playing!

The lack of a story is offset by the addition of tons of ass kicking - and sometimes a good ass kicking is more satisfying.

Of the many puzzles games currently available, this is one of the most inventive and imaginative, offering up a tiny reward each and every time you solve a puzzle.

The storyline is worth the ride and I can easily say that Xenosaga is one fantastic RPG.

I've played for at least a couple of hours every day since I got it -- I've played a lot of my all time favorites (Chess, Backgammon), learned how to play a few games that have interested me for a while (Shogi, Hanafuda), and even came close to destroying my DS on a number of occasions thanks to a couple of insanely hard missions (Bowling, Hasami Shogi).

Though the game suffers a bit musically and the 2 player versus mode is a bit lacking, the overall package is well presented and worth a purchase.

One of the most enjoyable breaks from traditional gaming to date. The possibilities are endless, the amusement factor is high, and the gameplay is quite easy to learn.
