All the ingredients for a thrilling racing recipe are certainly present, but the result is a bit of a disaster.

I am not one to look a gift-horse in the mouth, what is there is fun -- and fun is fun.

If there were ever budget titles for the Game Boy Advance, this title would be the perfect candidate. However, at the price it is being advertised, it's hardly worthy of anyone's time even if you suddenly became an Ice Age fan and must grab everything related to the franchise.

A game that is less puzzle-like than "Commandos" and more action-like than the roots of which this game originated from.

Thus, while Templar's precursor may have been merely good when it was initially released, in the face of new competition from much shallower titles, it is even better, like Citizen Kane's positive reappraisal.

If you bought the first one, save yourself the $40 and just pull out the old one again – you won’t be missing anything of consequence.

Despite the varied modes, the gameplay is the same and the lack of sophisticated AI play means you'll be entertained for one or two rounds until the races become too long (and too easy) to bear.

This version is essentially identical to its highly acclaimed PS2 counterpart with a few visual enhancements, sadly though this version shares the PS2's excruciatingly long load times.

The game is about a 10-hour experience. There's absolutely no reason to replay it.

Probably the only other thing that bugs me is the map restrictions. There are a lot of small rocks and other areas that you aren’t allowed to scale, climb, or jump over and end up hitting this invisible wall.

The target audience Konami will undoubtedly wow will be the 'art house', foreign film loving type who mope around at Cannes. That's the type of gamer, especially those enamored with overseas story-based RPGs, who will be able to appreciate this.

Its depth and attention to detail simply is unrivalled compared to what arcade racers considered 'realistic' beforehand.

Those who enjoyed an inkling of SMA or this title's antecedent on the SNES platform, should not walk, but run to their nearest entertainment outlet to grab this gem.

Though the achievement is not entirely revolutionary, it continues to be an impressive title in its own right like the symbiotic relationship between The Godfather and its second part.

All this eye-candy comes at a price however, the game is plagued with clipping problems that are, at times, completely ridiculous.

A fairly lukewarm expansion pack.

Mall Tycoon's anemic execution really turns any simulation aspects into micromanagement chaos.

It's simply one of the best collections of winter event games available for the GBA, with great emphasis on the word 'game' because this is what Konami does best.

It’s like somebody at Wanadoo wondered just how little time they could put into a game and still release it, and Secret at Loch Ness is the result.

Its open- ended nature lets you mold the game into whatever you want it to be.

[It] impressed me mightily.

The gameplay in MOHAA is really excellent at times but exceptionally frustrating at others.

The disparity, however, between this title and the great classics that LucasArts used to create is too great of a void to disregard.

A vapid title for me, ultimately devoid of any fun.

If you can look past its denounceable play control then you will find a smart, stylish, Batman experience that is, at its foundation, true to its namesake.

Square’s unique story telling ability and their magic to completely immerse us into a world of fantasy and awe gives this game the power to bring a grown man to tears and a crazed gamer to fall in love.
