An arcade game, plain and simple. Unfortunately, that just doesn't cut it with today's console systems.

Certainly engrossing, but it's just not quite fun enough.

Looks almost as good as its PC brother, the only real difference being screen resolution, which can't be helped. The game is playing on your T.V., for God's sake

While not totally original, it's got enough intensity and excitement to have even the most jaded real-time strategy gamer glued to his computer for hours. Death to the American dogs, comrade.

It's a good game and a good PC conversion, but without true multiplayer and no real one-player quest, it's an appetizer and not quite a meal.

It's much better than "Sega Bass Fishing," but the same major problem still exists: What the hell are you doing inside, fishing out of a TV screen, when there are actual, live fish outside?

One of the most average games I've ever played. It has some mindlessly fun arcade moments balanced by a a mediocre plot and boring graphics.

Without the maracas, this game turns into a bad version of "Parappa the Rapper." A REALLY bad version.

Clearly the product of a talented group of developers who apparently give a damn about whether or not anyone actually likes playing their games. And unless there's something severely wrong with you, you will certainly like playing this one.

Fatally flawed by some of the worst control on record. Still, its beautifully dark graphics, spooky atmosphere, and intriguing story make it compelling enough to play through.

Third Strike comes out marginally better than the previous "Street Fighter III Double Impact" only because of the additional characters, but viewed as a whole is still lacking inspiration and ingenuity.

The camera problems and bad play balance hold it back from the hellish glory it strives for.

Pure and simple fun.

Pork is generally one of my favorite foods, but it doesn't seem to translate to much of a game.

The additions to combat, varieties of gameplay, and throngs of enemies who are serious about doing you harm make this infinitely more playable than most of the self-styled "survival horror" games.

May have a fine pedigree, but it's the runt of the litter. As Bonk once might have shouted, "Game not very good! Get C! Probably. Not Sure!!"

Improved graphics, more cars, and several new modes are among the upgrades that Destruction Derby Raw has to offer.

I really enjoy this game. It's just that too many things slow down what could have been a truly amazing experience.

Too bad it's not at all fun to play. Let's see a real track and field game before the next Olympics come around, okay?

I wish there really were a Buzz Lightyear, because he would probably beat the crap out of the guys who made this game.

Still a great game, but just wait until next year for the real show.

It is the kind of game you could easily find yourself dusting off two years from now and enjoying just as thoroughly.

Unfortunately, the limited replay (showing "highlights" rather than the entire race) is the only time you'll be able to have an outside perspective.

Whether you call it an arcade racer or a city driving simulation, I call it good fun.

Overall, Elite Force screams quality gaming, though perhaps a little short of quantity.

It's so good it should come with a warning label -- or at least some methadone.

Take a combination of realism and arcade action, add a large helping of 1930's romantic attitude and a healthy dose of humor, and you've got all the pirate treasure you'll ever need.

This is free roaming BMX action, complete with dirt tracks, half pipes, empty pools -- just the goods to fulfill any BMXers dream.
