    The attempt at injecting a strategy theme into the series just doesn’t seem to fit in with the game’s arcade feel and the battling is repetitive and generally bland.

    While it does lack in certain graphical aspects and contains some fairly linear worlds, the game's concept is unique and the transformation feature really adds a lot of variety to the gameplay.

    If you're getting a few mates around and don't have enough controllers for them, give Worms 3D a rent as you only need one controller to play the multiplayer.

    There isn't a lot that stands out except the obvious online features a good level design, and decent stealth action.
    • 70 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    The fact that they deliberately ensured that you can't pick up items until you need them is just a lame attempt to lengthen what is already a short game.

    Gates of Troy, like "Spartan," could use some graphical improvements during battle sequences, but overall is an enjoyable Strategy game and a worthy expansion to its predecessor.

    Eventually you’ll find yourself getting fed up with the repetitiveness of each track.

    Unfortunately it only has about 5-7 hours of gameplay without much lastability.
    • 70 Metascore
    • 76 Critic Score
    Levels are often linear and heavily scripted.
    • 70 Metascore
    • 72 Critic Score
    With the lack luster graphics, textures, lighting, and shadows being stripped from the port, the game suffers and doesn’t allow the full gaming experience of a Clancy title that we know in titles like "Ghost Recon Jungle Storm."
    • 70 Metascore
    • 75 Critic Score
    A unique and interesting concept for a game, but unfortunately some ideas were put forward early in to the development of the game which finalized in a title that seems unfinished and thrown together by amateurs.
    • 70 Metascore
    • 65 Critic Score
    Overall we gave it a 6.5 because it does have a fair bit of life in it, but there’s a few things about the game that are just too annoying to put up with for very long.
    • 70 Metascore
    • 65 Critic Score
    Features the backbone and potential of a great first-person shooter: lush graphics, great music and ambience, massive, well-designed environments and a unique storyline. When it comes down to it, though, the story is told poorly and the gameplay is incredibly repetitive, bland and hardly innovative.
    • 69 Metascore
    • 75 Critic Score
    The new innovations to the genre are likely to be copied by other games. Ultimately Driver Parallel Lines is definitely worth trying out.
    • 69 Metascore
    • 75 Critic Score
    More boomerangs, much more diverse gameplay.
    • 69 Metascore
    • 76 Critic Score
    The short sessions ensure you grab as many pedestrians as you can, but, like an arcade game, you get bored of it quickly, and wouldn't play more than 15 minutes at a time after the novelty has worn off.
    • 69 Metascore
    • 74 Critic Score
    It’s very enjoyable the whole way through and the puzzles are extremely well designed and varied, some being simple and some requiring quite a bit of thinking.
    • 69 Metascore
    • 63 Critic Score
    Shark Tale does a fantastic job of representing the film authentically as a whole, but it’s its very basic, mini-game style levels and side-scrolling gameplay that let it down.
    • 69 Metascore
    • 74 Critic Score
    A bad thing about the enemies though is that while they do change from world to world, they are still limited with the total number of 14 enemies being seen and there also being a few types of enemies that are seen in every world.
    • 69 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Designing your maps and heading online has never been easier than it is in Pariah, but you may have trouble spreading your map around in the public when every other man and his dog has designed a map that they want to show off too.
    • 69 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    It just lacks some of the special elements that other Survival Horror and Action Adventure games have that make the game immensely fun, and therefore you won’t pick this over "Resident Evil or "Silent Hill."
    • 69 Metascore
    • 82 Critic Score
    Unfortunately, it can grow a little bit repetitive and is a bit too easy.
    • 69 Metascore
    • 71 Critic Score
    If you don’t intend to play with friends or family that much don’t bother with the title unless you haven’t played a Mario Party title before.
    • 69 Metascore
    • 65 Critic Score
    If you can put up with annoying controls, stupid team mates, and what simply feels like a rushed title, then there are some moments in Close Combat: First to Fight which are rewarding, but overall the game really isn't worth the trouble.
    • 69 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    A good solid game, as it should be considering it’s the fifth in the series. Being released around the same time as "Tekken 5" though, it’s incredibly noticeable how one series can progress and develop new modes of gameplay, while another can simply try to release the same old.

    Kya’s fantastic and diverse gameplay makes the standing block for a successful start in the gaming industry, Visuals and sound could have been a lot better but by and large Kya is fun.
    • 68 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Demon Stone deserves 75% because it’s not the best hack and slash game out there, probably because it’s a measly port that they probably threw together at the last minute.
    • 68 Metascore
    • 72 Critic Score
    A good example how top quality motion capture can be used within a game. Unfortunately the "revolutionary" control system hurts an otherwise solid game.
    • 68 Metascore
    • 75 Critic Score
    The gameplay is solid and enjoyable. The visuals fit the atmosphere wonderfully, the sound is suitably heroic and epic and the gameplay gets rid of some of the tired conventions of the genre and in their place introduces new ideas that help move it forward.
    • 68 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    The game is visually appealing but does also suffer a few problems such as poor AI for your team mates, this is alleviated in multiplayer mode.
