    Excitebike 64
    Added bonuses like the inclusion of the original side-scrolling turbo-cooling itty-bitty-bit masterpiece plus a tremendous hybrid of classic and new with 3D-ified straight and narrow, linear and delineated track design adds great gobs of icing to the cake.

    NBA 2K2
    Nobody has developed a perfect basketball sim. Visual Concepts however has come the closest with NBA 2K2. By far this is the best hoops title on the market today.

    Final Fantasy VII: Advent Children
    If you're a fan of Final Fantasy VII, then this is the next best thing to a full-fledged sequel. If you aren't a fan, you'll still probably agree that it's an amazing visual experience.

    Syphon Filter
    What especially impresses me is that although the presentation is smooth and competent, it is understated and lets the brilliant gameplay speak for itself.

    Homeworld: Cataclysm
    Outstanding visuals, an ominous orchestral score, a well-scripted story with real plot twists, excellent voice acting and a host of brand new ships and weapons, Cataclysm is a sequel to Homeworld as much as "Aliens" was a sequel to "Alien." It’s better, has more action, and plays longer.

    Throne of Darkness
    Its innovative combat system, addictive click and kill adventuring, and solid story make it a title that keeps reviewers up late.

    Tekken Tag Tournament
    Currently the high water mark for the PS2.
    • 74 Metascore

    Fatal Frame
    Through careful scripting, disturbing audio-visual tricks, solid gameplay and a judicious use of cinematics, Fatal Frame manages to convey the disarming sense of feeling one's sanity crumble under the assault of otherworldly influences...At least, that's what the Voices told me to say.

    NBA 2K2
    The most well-rounded simulation in this highly-competitive genre.

    NCAA College Football 2K2
    Aside from the talented AI, there are a lot more impressive game features. One of the first things to come to mind is the incredibly deep playbook and coverage set.

    NCAA Football 2002
    The massive number of features and solid gameplay more than make up for any of my minor gripes.

    Myth III: The Wolf Age
    A must-see RTS experience with a rich single-player campaign and a whopping 14 styles of multiplayer competition.

    Grand Theft Auto III
    The number of different ways you can play GTA III is astonishing.

    NHL Hitz 20-02
    The thing that I enjoy most about this arcade style hockey is the big hits. You can actually practice the many skills you will need in this game, including driving your opponent through the glass.

    Tony Hawk's Underground 2
    I love the game's soundtrack, which has old and newer hits, and completely fits the game's attitude. I never would have thought that skateboarding tricks and Johnny Cash would go together, but they do.

    Condemned: Criminal Origins
    Is it a fresh and unusual take on shooters, on horror survival, or both? Ah, let's just say it's fresh and unusual and leave it at that.

    Fallout
    This top-down RPG is without a doubt the best PC RPG we have played in years. That's not an exaggeration. Years. I can't think of another game that comes even close to Fallout's excellent character generation and skill system, great story, and classy delivery.

    Extreme-G
    What a classy, clever package. Without a doubt, Extreme-G has the coolest futuristic atmosphere I've seen on the Nintendo 64. Probe may have lifted design ideas for its game but they obviously took the time to borrow from the best. Extreme-G is simply magnificent to watch.

    Def Jam Vendetta
    I don't listen to rap music and I know very little about it, but I am enthralled by this game's easy control; wild over-the-top moves; and enjoyable story mode.

    Kohan: Immortal Sovereigns
    This is a great game for those who tire of the endless tank-rushes of real-time strategy games past. Victory is determined not by the speed of the clicks, but rather the strength of decisions.

    Mario Kart DS
    The graphics are phenomenal, some of the best so far for the handheld system. The controls in the game are simple enough for anyone to jump right into, and the variety of gameplay will keep most players coming back for more.

    Pirates: The Legend of Black Kat
    The kind of product Westwood is largely known for--complete, compelling, full of great little touches, and just generally elegant (which is a funny thing to say about a game of pirates, pillage and plunder, but so be it).
    • 94 Metascore

    God of War
    On top of the fun factor, GoW is also a delightful treat for the senses with its artistic rendition of ancient Greece.

    Pilotwings 64
    A silky smooth wonder. The absolute freedom that can be yours in this game is unprecedented. With a large screen television and proper stereo amplification, Pilot Wings 64 truly takes us where no console game has ever gone before.

    Age of Empires II: The Conquerors Expansion
    Just when Age of Empires II was starting to seem a little played out, Ensemble Studios has made it a game that might just keep you up late again with The Conquerors expansion.

    Oddworld: Munch's Oddysee
    The game is beautiful and offers plenty of platform gaming excitement that wouldn’t be possible on the PS2 or even the GameCube.

    Sly Cooper and the Thievius Raccoonus
    The worlds and characters the designers have created here will charm your boots off.
    • 73 Metascore

    Tribes Aerial Assault
    If you want to get online and play action games against other people, Tribes Aerial Assault is a must. The consoles have never seen anything like it before.
    • 83 Metascore

    Unreal Championship
    A game that makes you feel like you're sucking on a IV drip that's pumping adrenalin.
    • 75 Metascore
    • 90 Critic Score
    World Driver Championship
    The system has its fair share of racing titles to be sure, but most of those games feature balloon-headed cartoon drivers or vehicles that jump over city buildings. What a breath of fresh air then, to be able to play a game on the Nintendo 64 that is at once stunning to behold and completely satisfying in its realism.
