    ShellShock: Nam '67
    The cutscenes are shockingly brutal, the language is shockingly harsh, and the gameplay is shockingly bad.
    • 86 Metascore
    • 84 Critic Score
    EverQuest: Omens of War
    While it does cater primarily to existing players of newcomers, EverQuest: Omens of War is one off the strongest expansions since "Scars of Velious."

    The Adventures of Jimmy Neutron Boy Genius: Attack of the Twonkies
    By far, the best Nickelodeon game available, The Adventures of Jimmy Neutron Boy Genius: Attack of the Twonkies sports some interesting gameplay and beautiful graphics and sound.

    The Adventures of Jimmy Neutron Boy Genius: Attack of the Twonkies
    The game's simplicity combined with relatively open exploration makes it a decent purchase for younger fans of the show and should provide many hours of nonviolent entertainment (unless you count the scene where a monkey goes flying into a wall at terminal velocity - but I digress).

    Conflict: Vietnam
    The controls are cramped, the AI questionable, and the pacing and gameplay seems more geared toward an action-shooter than a stealthy military sim.
    • 59 Metascore
    • 39 Critic Score
    Chris Sawyer's Locomotion
    A game that plays as badly as it looks. There is no formal presentation, no story to follow, just a variety of different missions to beat with no reward to be found at the end of the tunnel.

    The Fairly OddParents! Shadow Showdown
    If, like me, you have a couple of kids, even teens, prancing around the house – go ahead and rent Fairly Odd Parents: Shadow Showdown for a weekend. They’re sure to get a kick out of seeing familiar characters onscreen, even if only for a few minutes. For seasoned adults, the gameplay will prove to be a bit tired, yet strangely addictive.

    The Fairly OddParents Shadow Showdown
    Well Timmy, after going with you through the course of the game, I saw many things. I saw graphics that just weren’t that great. Voice acting that, while somewhat funny, oftentimes felt forced or the acting was uneven. I saw stages that changed the gameplay too little from level to level.

    Silent Hill 4: The Room
    Just be warned when I say it’s violent. It’s insanely violent. There’s blood everywhere. Literally. There’s blood that will make you wonder how it got there. Oh, and corpses, in varying degrees of decay.

    Test Drive: Eve of Destruction
    And while the whole demolition derby thing may have been done before, it has never been done this well – with this much care.
    • 76 Metascore
    • 87 Critic Score
    Silent Hill 4: The Room
    The clunky inventory and save system that forces you to return to your room is annoying at first but you eventually learn to live with it.
    • 68 Metascore

    Terminator 3: The Redemption
    Antiquated controls combine with a lackluster storytelling technique to create a game that might have been cool five years ago.

    Terminator 3: The Redemption
    The type of game you and a friend will rent, get home with, open up, start playing and both say “This is awesome” simultaneously. Unfortunately a half hour later you will both want to play something else because your fun level has just plummeted nose first into the ground.
    • 66 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Terminator 3: The Redemption
    While fun at times, Redemption quickly gets tedious and repetitive with its unforgiving, "win or die and try again" design. If you are a true masochist then Atari is ready to make you its little bitch.

    Street Racing Syndicate
    There really is a solid game here – it just that the timing is all off.
    • 53 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Carmen Sandiego: The Secret of the Stolen Drums
    Simply an average game, both in quality and the skill level needed to complete it. I was very disappointed that the educational aspect that the series was founded on was truncated to include a small area before each level.
    • 73 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Anarchy Online: Alien Invasion
    While it may not do much to attract the new players, the more than welcome addition of player created cities will give wealthy Organizations a new way to flaunt their power.
    • 80 Metascore
    • 93 Critic Score
    Star Ocean: Till the End of Time
    A game for gamers and not just RPG gamers. With a carefully blended mix of strategy, intense real-time combat, customizable characters and weapons, and a rich sci-fi universe to explore, there is literally something here for everyone.
    • 81 Metascore
    • 75 Critic Score
    Phantom Brave
    An excellent game at its core, couched in mediocre production values and a charming but nonetheless cliched storyline.
    • 70 Metascore
    • 85 Critic Score
    Gallop Racer 2004
    Remember, this is not an arcade experience. This game is more for serious sim lovers of an equine bent. If you’ve ever played (and liked) any games of this series, you’ll probably like this latest version and its requisite additional bells and whistles.
    • 48 Metascore
    • 65 Critic Score
    The Guy Game
    A pretty good game, with a great gimmick – the whole rebirth of the FMV thing, finally being used in an entertaining manner, is great. It could have used a bit more polish, and maybe a couple more sets of trivia.
    • 66 Metascore
    • 79 Critic Score
    Dark Fall: Lights Out
    With a bit more music, sound, and speech, this game would have shined. Even so, Lights Out is an excellent game and worth a look, especially if you don’t have enough tension in your life.
    • 66 Metascore
    • 77 Critic Score
    Street Racing Syndicate
    The massive parts list will keep you in the garage for hours on end, and the online racing will be the ultimate test of your skills as a mechanic and driver.
    • 53 Metascore
    • 75 Critic Score
    Carmen Sandiego: The Secret of the Stolen Drums
    As a game that balances so many forms of gameplay successfully, Carmen certainly earns my respect. For younger gamers (especially those with only an Xbox) this is a must buy.
    • 62 Metascore
    • 58 Critic Score
    Pro Fishing Challenge
    The game’s new above-water struggle and online capabilities bring something new to the Xbox, but after that, we really have the same old fishing experience we had on the Dreamcast years ago.
    • 62 Metascore
    • 78 Critic Score
    Wings of War
    As long as you don’t expect a riveting simulation or some epic WWI tale, Wings of War is an entertaining, albeit arcade, flight combat game with lots of action spread across a massive campaign with plenty of unique missions, both ground and air.
    • 47 Metascore
    • 88 Critic Score
    The Guy Game
    There is a really good game lurking under those boobies.
    • 79 Metascore
    • 85 Critic Score
    WWE Day of Reckoning
    The game itself still has a great blending of wresting and "sports entertainment" so if you won't that signature WWE feel you won't be disappointed. Flaws and all, this is THE best wrestler for GameCube, bar none.
    • 72 Metascore
    • 87 Critic Score
    Test Drive: Eve of Destruction
    Just when racing sims got too deep and repetitive, Monster Games has given us an arcade game that makes being white trash fun. Demolition derby has never been so entertaining and certainly never this addictive.
    • 69 Metascore
    • 81 Critic Score
    Ghosthunter
    If you are looking for serious scares there are better games for the job, and hardcore survival horror buffs will likely find the gameplay a bit too light for their tastes, but anyone looking for a stunning visual experience with entertaining characters, an interesting storyline, and an overall creepy atmosphere will find plenty to enjoy with Ghosthunter.
