    IndyCar Series
    Does a remarkable job of simulating just about every aspect of the IndyCar season and the world famous Indianapolis 500 right up to the point where you get behind the wheel. The car setup, the schedules, the teams, the racers, everything is perfect and you won’t find a more authentic presentation of IndyCar racing - just don't drive this out of pit row.

    NBA Jam 2004
    While Acclaim has managed to make a game that is better than any of the other attempts at a home edition NBA Jam still doesn't live up to the arcade original and falls short of other arcade hoops like "NBA Street" and "NBA Showtime."

    DDRMAX2 Dance Dance Revolution
    You’ll never catch me playing this game in the arcades but having DDRMAX 2 on my PS2 ready to humiliate myself in the privacy of my own home is undeniable fun.

    Neighbors from Hell
    The combination of puzzle-solving and strategy works well, but there simply are not enough episodes and environmental variations to keep the player engaged for more than 5 hours at the maximum.

    Star Wars Jedi Knight: Jedi Academy
    Despite the graphical flaws, poor mission design, and lack of a compelling story I still have to admit I had "fun" playing this game. Sure it was easy, sure I finished it in record time, and no, I probably won’t be going back and playing it again anytime soon.

    Dungeons & Dragons Heroes
    This is one of the best new multiplayer games and its exclusive to the Xbox, so you even get some system bragging rights to go along with your hack and slash adventures.

    XGRA: Extreme-G Racing Association
    Even though we can't score this game as high as the GameCube's "F-Zero GX" everyone here at GCM who has played XGRA unanimously agrees this is the better racing game, both in gameplay and track design.

    The Temple of Elemental Evil
    The music is better if your turn it off and the tinny sound effects are a bit disappointing, but at its heart there is a fun and substantial gameplay experience to be had if you have the perseverance to tough it out.

    Homeworld 2
    From its finely honed user interface to its nearly flawless campaign and PvP modes, Homeworld2 is a breath of fresh air when most games of its ilk are bogging themselves down with needless complexity.

    The Simpsons: Hit & Run
    It is, by a wide margin, the best put together Simpsons game that’s ever been released to the public. It fixes most of what many people found lacking with “Road Rage” and added new and better things to drawn in as wide a demographic as possible.

    Boktai: The Sun Is in Your Hand
    An exciting and challenging game that will bring a whole new generation of gamers out into something they might not have seen in a long time, the sunlight.

    The Simpsons: Hit & Run
    This game oozes with the same quality and professional presentation values as any episode shown in the past decade thanks to quality writing and an outstanding performance by the original cast.

    The Simpsons: Hit & Run
    What really sets it apart from other Simpsons games is that behind all of the quick wit and polished voice acting lies a very, very good game.

    WWE Raw 2
    Whether you rent this game or buy it, just make sure you play it. Many hours of hardcore WWE entertainment await you.

    XGRA: Extreme-G Racing Association
    It fails to innovate as much as it promised. The courses are longer and there are more of them. The weapons are more advanced and so is the AI of the other racers, so winning will take strategy and skill.

    ESPN NHL Hockey
    A near-flawless gameplay experience that is marred only by a slightly deficient Franchise mode, but when you have a game that exudes this much quality in just about every other facet I’m more than happy to overlook it.

    Savage: The Battle for Newerth
    A near-perfect mix of action, teamwork, and RPG influences, Savage is the core of everything that I loved about "PlanetSide" except on a smaller scale and without the monthly charge.

    Lethal Skies II
    Easily equals the quality of "Ace Combat 4" and in some ways it may even surpass the competition.

    Starsky & Hutch
    Frankly, the light gun and cooperative play turn an otherwise mediocre game into a pretty darn good one.

    EverQuest: Lost Dungeons of Norrath
    Just the shot in the arm that EverQuest needed at this juncture. A graphical update would be nice, but the new mission based gameplay and the augmentation system, have really brought my opinion of EverQuest and SOE to a new, higher level.

    WWE WrestleMania XIX
    If customizing is your thing, the CAW is the single most amazing thing about XIX. You could get lost in the myriad options it offers to you.

    ESPN NFL Football
    A near-flawless gameplay experience that not only rivals "Madden" and "Fever" but storms past these two former contenders and into the end zone for a clear and decisive victory.

    Disney's Extreme Skate Adventure
    Much like the wholesome Kix breakfast cereal, Disney’s Extreme Skate Adventure has seemingly been "kid-tested, mother-approved" for quality. It’s not just kid stuff, mind you.

    Disney's Extreme Skate Adventure
    The younger kids who are unable to grasp the more complicated aspects of Tony Hawk will love the simplified trick system and adults and teens will find the challenging mission objectives highly entertaining.

    Disney's Extreme Skate Adventure
    For older teens and adult gamers, it may get a bit dull or annoying in certain spots. However, if you're under 13, or looking for a way to have fun with your kids while playing a video game, you won't be disappointed.

    Mortal Kombat: Tournament Edition
    There is a ton of stuff to uncover in this latest game, and the only thing they didn't include was any type of bonus for linking to the GameCube version of Mortal Kombat.

    Otogi: Myth of Demons
    Guaranteed to satisfy the gamer that craves fast and furious combat, haunting music and stunning visuals. Put your brain on hold and prime those reflexes for one of the most intense action games to hit the Xbox this summer.

    NFL Fever 2004
    Microsoft keeps inserting small innovations when what is really needed is a major overhaul to the entire game engine.
