Everything about this title makes the previous installments seem archaic in comparison. [Nov 2001, p.100]

In the end, I found this game compelling and highly entertaining, even though the puzzles are rather average and lack variety.

A little repetitive, but still amusing. [Jan 2002, p.88]

When you go up against "RE Code: Veronica" armed with only a flashlight, you just aren't going to win the battle. [Nov 2001, p.125]

Version 2 is essentially the same game with new material scattered along the outskirts. [Nov 2001, p.124]

I realized that playing this game is a little like having a girlfriend: You experience brief periods of joy followed by extended intervals of utter confusion. [Nov 2001, p.29]

Nothing but wild fun. [Nov 2001, p.125]

An engine dubbed Geo-Mod...puts this game in a class by itself. [Nov 2001, p.129]

The game is nothing but an exercise in pressing X at the right time. [Nov 2001, p.110]

Playing the trivia games was about as fun as Bliz got. [Dec 2001, p.118]

Foremost among these flaws is the camera, which is so poor that it almost defies imagination. [Dec 2001, p.113]

The game is saddled with the same lackluster gameplay that has plagued the entire Army Men series.

For the majority of gamers, it's too little too late. [Dec 2001, p.113]

The best QBC yet, and that fact still only scratches the surface of what this franchise could do. [Nov 2001, p.112]

There is no battery backup to save with, and $40 is pretty steep for another version of Tetris. [January 2002, p.98]

Even if I never played "NBA 2K1" or "NBA Live," I'd still know this game sucks. [Nov 2001, p.122]

It's so exacting in detail, the Marines are showing interest in using it as part of their training programs. [Nov 2001, p.126]

I found the gameplay became a bit stale after the first few runs. [Nov 2001, p.112]

I would seriously caution a rookie to cut his or her teeth on something a bit more forgiving, but the rest should feel free to jump in with both feet. [Nov 2001, p.128]

Though the menu system can be awkward at times, and the tutorials need smoothing over, this is an excellent offering for a rookie release. [Nov 2001, p.128]

As much fun as I had with Extreme G3, I have to give the slight nod to Kinetica in this issue's futuristic racer debate. [Nov 2001, p.110]

Madden is even deeper this year with the return of the Create-a-Team and the Two-Minute Drill, but that's not why my jock is still on the field. Tiburon could have merely made these additions, but it went the remaining nine yards to make a football game that is that much closer to perfection, if it hasn't already got there.

Fortress is basically a good idea that got a bit fouled in the execution. [Nov 2001, p.131]

Gives you plenty of targets, but no real reason to keep pulling the trigger. [Dec 2001, p.113]

These goodies, along with the title's speed, really gave me a sense of the college game. Whether you compare it to the pros or not, it's hard to ask for more.

Even though it drove me nuts, I couldn’t put it down. It’s not a must have, but it’s well worth a look.

It hasn't changed, and has made little effort to improve itself. [Dec 2001, p.111]
