    The game evokes memories of Blade Runner, the dark-grey/pink palettes lending a film noir ambiance that fits the plot like a black leather glove.

    This is not the fighting game for the young nor the squeamish, but it is a truly excellent fighting game. Mortal Kombat is back in the ring.

    I didn't find it very scary. Maybe after so many games we're on to its tricks, but there seem to be far less boo! moments than in other RE games.

    Starts off with one of the best opening scenes of any game in the last few years.

    A lot of fun, with many different kinds of activities, with an immediate sense of accomplishment. It also has copious amount of practise modes.

    It’s somewhat remarkable then that Project Eden not only offers an update to the genre, but also takes it to the next level with tons of challenging environmental puzzles, amazing graphics, and not one, but four lead characters.

    Beautiful, fun, and very easy for anyone to pick up and play.

    Although ATV Offroad Fury is not a keeper for everyone, you don't want to miss playing it at least once.

    As cranky as DK64 made me, I can ill refute the fact that the game is still remarkable. Had this title come from any other game developer in the world I'd be doing back flips raving about how great it is.

    If you've got a top end PC I'd still say the PC version is the best choice, but the Xbox version is still well worth owning.

    The detail is reminiscent of "Sudden Strike," but rendered in 3D. It's truly awesome.

    While this first PC foray into the Blair mythos is excellent, you needn't bother unless you have a relatively high-end system. If you harbor any doubts as to whether your system is good enough, it isn't. The base requirements (Pentium II 233, etc.) refer to the game running at all, not the game running well when you've got multiple enemies onscreen...and believe me, you will.

    Keith David provides the voice of the leader of the Saints, and that guy has such an awesome voice he could make reading off his grocery list sound cool.

    The GameCube engine is used well to convey the feeling of playing within a cartoon world and the play balance is just right for young and old players alike.

    While the gameplay and situations in Deus Ex are immersive, the story execution is not.

    If you are more interested in a game that looks great and has easy controls and simplified gameplay, then Triple Play Baseball is the right title for you.

    One final note: if you get the Collector's Edition of Doom III, you also get ports of "Doom II" and "Ultimate Doom." If you're an old timer, that's a lot of great nostalgia.

    Shadow Hearts’ enthralling plot and superb combat system make this one a keeper. Did I mention the micro-skirted heroine?

    Innovative, exciting, and once you look past the visuals (which aren't really awful, just plain), a truly great game to play.

    [Its] frantic, hard-as-heck action has apparently fused those vital language-center synapses, so fongoo, this review's just gonna peter out because your reviewer's brain is fried.

    In the end, the game felt forced like a classic episode of "Nightboat."

    In addition to the plot straight out of an LSD hallucination, it has unique game mechanics that really spice up the platform gaming scene.

    City Of Heroes is a breath of fresh air, and a hell of a lot of fun to play. By building on this initial framework, COH has the potential to grow by leaps and bounds.

    Though it would seem like a completely different experience, StarFox Adventures is a little like "Eternal Darkness"--a beautiful, well put together action and adventure game with so much to do and see.

    Here's hoping Amusement Vision knows when to move on and begins a new project instead of staying stuck and trying to squeeze out a "Monkey Ball 3."

    Expect well over 120 hours of play from this bundle, and the three main titles truly are worth your time.

    Chess can be intimidating for some people, and the makers of Chessmaster 8000 make it easy for everyone to enjoy the game.

    Kinetica has done bold new things with track design and playability, as well as giving gamers the sugar rush of speed that racing game fans crave.

    In the end, the word of the day is "detail." Restaurant Empire has it to spare, incorporating design, bean-counting, empire-building, and plenty of customization into its gameplay. And yet, it's not that tricky to learn.
    • 78 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    A fine mix of arcade hackin’ and halfway-serious golf sim.
