    The Sims 2: Castaway
    The only thing I think the developers could have improved on would have been the diversity of the animals in which you hunt. They could have also added some island natives for you to interact with.

    Sacred 2: Fallen Angel
    Sacred 2: Fallen Angel is not the perfect console RPG but it’s really enjoyable and highly addicting.

    Colin McRae Rally 3
    Definitely a niche game targeted to a specific group of racing fans, mainly hardcore rally racers. With its ultra-realistic driving and damage model combined with a distinct lack of game modes and content, this may not be the game for everyone.

    Secret Weapons Over Normandy
    From “console port” to delightfully entertaining diversion, SWON eventual won me over and vanquished my early skepticism.
    • 63 Metascore

    Blacklight: Tango Down
    While Blacklight might not have the longevity of a Call of Duty game, or the depth of tactical options, it stands head and shoulders above the vast majority of downloadable games.
    • 76 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Battlestations: Midway
    The only thing keeping this game from having a top score is its lack of single player content (at least by PC standards) and some buggy issues with multiplayer. But otherwise this is a really solid game that combines both first-person and strategic gameplay flawlessly.

    SingStar ABBA
    I would highly recommend that anyone that enjoys singing try out the series and if you love ABBA then this latest addition to the series is worth a look.

    Tiger Woods PGA Tour 07
    And while this new version still lacks a lot of the content (courses) you can still get playing on last-gen systems, the integrated ESPN, amazing GameFace features for your characters and UCAP technology for the pros, and an enhanced True Swing and True Aiming system all combine to make this the best and most advanced professional golf simulation available.

    Anomaly: Warzone Earth
    Aside from the mediocre voice acting and shortness of the game I highly recommend Anomaly: Warzone Earth to everyone with a couple of hours to burn. You won't play through this game just once. You'll keep coming back just to make that one change to your route or upgrade to achieve that perfect score. The mayhem mode is a nice way to let us continue to get our fix after completing Tokyo's city story.

    World of Tanks
    I look forward to playing this game long after this review is on the shelf, and I look forward to future patches and additions to this game, as well as future installments from Wargaming.net. They're working on similar style games called World of Battleships and World of Warplanes. These games will be a part of a trilogy that will use your common account and, as I understand it, your earnings will be transferable between them as well. So, expect to see a couple more reviews in the not-too-distant future.

    Multiwinia: Survival of the Flattest
    While it certainly lacks the complexity of most RTS titles, Multiwinia still strikes a good balance between strategy and arcade action.

    Klonoa 2: Dream Champ Tournament
    The game is easy to learn, fun to play, and quite challenging. There aren't too many quality platform games currently being issued for the GBA, and this fills the void nicely.

    Crash Nitro Kart
    If you already have "Crash Team Racing," don’t expect anything new or exciting beyond the updated graphics – Crash Nitro Kart is basically the same game in a pretty new package.

    Star Wars: Battlefront II (2005)
    By fixing some of the prior title’s technical wrongs, and by including space-based combat and an attempt at an actual storyline, Pandemic and Lucas Arts have finally produced a game that has a little bit of something for every Star Was fan and non-fan alike.

    Me & My Katamari
    Combine addictive gameplay with fun, colorful graphics and a wacky soundtrack and you have a recipe for a good time – even if it has all been done before.

    Crash Twinsanity
    Crash’s current developer Traveller’s Tales does the series great justice by adding new elements like free-roaming environment and three very noticeable new gameplay mechanics, but all in all, it’s the evolved sense of humor that really offers Crash a new hope.

    Serious Sam 3: BFE
    With its awesome environments, outrageous creatures, powerful weapons, and insane level of challenging gameplay, there should be enough violent bloodletting to satiate the hardest of hardcore players.

    Bleach: Shattered Blade
    The Bankai activation scenes are still one of my favorite parts about Bleach. If you are a die-hard fan of Bleach then definitely pick this one up, but for all of those that are not yet familiar with the series, I would recommend renting it first.

    Spider-Man 2
    The missions can get repetitive, but there are hundreds of them to take care of. The story mirrors that of the movie, yet it adds in a lot of twists and turns without feeling stilted.

    DreamWorks Monsters vs. Aliens
    Activision and DreamWorks have another solid movie-licensed game ready for fans of the upcoming film.

    Myst III: Exile
    A great adventure game. While it is short, it is still a great ride while it lasts and one of the few games that a family (of all ages) can actually sit around the computer and play together.

    Phantasy Star Online Episode I & II
    If you are looking for a true MMORPG and not a fan of "dungeon crawlers", PSO may not be for you. With that said, I detest dungeon drawlers and thrive on the complexity found in games like Ultima Online but still enjoyed my time with Phantasy Star Online Episode 1 & 2 immensely.

    Outpost Kaloki X
    The game’s eccentric and peculiar take on micromanagement gives Outpost Kaloki X a fresh and innovate feel that fits perfectly within Microsoft’s new loose “360” attitude, while still offering many nontraditional gamers a more conservative and cerebral experience.

    Metal Arms: Glitch in the System
    Puts a serious strain on the PS2 – a strain that drastically and negatively affects gameplay.

    Diplomacy
    Was the game perfect, no, but it did do a reasonable good job of transferring the material to a different medium.
    • 69 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Wrath Unleashed
    While I can think of plenty of minor tweaks and improvements that would make this game even better, as is, Wrath Unleashed is a bold and innovative concept that will delight both strategy and action gamers who enjoy challenging gameplay, fantasy creatures, spells, and sexy goddesses.

    X-Men: The Arcade Game
    I'll definitely be playing it again in the months to come. I definitely recommend this one for all you out there that enjoy a good old-fashioned brawler.

    Def Jam: Fight for NY
    Yeah, this is a bit of a button masher, but there is enough style to the game and depth to the system that you can get beyond this.
    • 81 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Airborne Assault: Highway to the Reich
    As good a war simulation as this is, it tends to be so thorough in its attention to historical accuracy that unless you wear a lot of tweed and smoke a pipe, you’d probably do well to stick to your Battlefield 1942 mods. Fast-paced this ain’t.

    L.A. Noire
    If you want a period piece action-adventure with a great story then Mafia II is still the game of choice. If you prefer a slower-paced game that requires you to collect evidence to fill your notebook then subsequently check off those items in your notebook one by one, either through travel or intense conversations, then L.A. Noire is the game for you. Loaded with style but short on substance, L.A. Noire is definitely worth checking out, if only to witness the best facial mo-cap in gaming history, but you can do that with a rental.
