    Batman: Arkham Asylum
    Batman: Arkham Asylum doesn't quite deliver on all of its big ideas, and thus dodges the highest of accolades, but its rousing peaks make its low points more than bearable. Its best moments of dazzling showmanship easily qualify as must-see entertainment, even if they're not sufficient to make the game as a whole a must-play.

    Super Mario Sunshine
    A masterpiece of superior game design, infinite gameplay variety, creativity, and life-and it's got a water cannon…and a damn brilliant one at that.

    Thief: The Dark Project
    Not only is Thief an anti-shooter, it's also like an RPG without the trappings of levels, skills, and experience points. That's how it feels-again, as though I'm actually doing something.

    Tony Hawk's Pro Skater
    Fun, addictive, and exciting -- you couldn't ask for more in a game. Tony Hawk may not have the graphic flair of the Dreamcast, but it goes to prove that looks aren't everything.

    SoulCalibur II
    Spawn's struggles with the forces of good and evil in the comic actually make him the best fit, story wise, of the exclusive console characters. His powerful strikes and air-based attacks also make him an extremely tough character to beat.

    Age of Empires II: The Age of Kings
    Extraordinary.

    Final Fantasy X
    A memorable, fantastic adventure that falls short in key areas that could have benefited from fine-tuning—namely control tweaks and unpolished graphics...The last must-have title of 2001.

    Unreal Tournament (1999)
    But what separates UT from Quake 3 is its glossy presentation...Audio in UT is also superb.

    Sid Meier's Alpha Centauri
    Its brilliance is in a seamless and convincing storytelling that begins with the opening cinematic and never stops unfolding, developing, and engaging. With each new expansion, each contact, crisis, and step closer to ultimate resolution, Alpha Centauri is a hell of a yarn.

    Guitar Hero II
    While I personally don't LOVE the overabundance of hard rock and metal songs, every track on the game is more than fun to play along with, and the classic rock tunes are savage, as usual...One of the best gaming experiences ever.

    Chrono Trigger
    Regardless of whether you played it already or are new to the series, you owe it to yourself to check out this amazing title. [Dec 2008, p.97]

    Xenoblade Chronicles
    What makes Monolith's game such a stellar experience is the fact that everything it does dramatically improves and innovates the RPG genre. Xenoblade gives the player a whole world to interact with and explore, removing boundaries and convenient game design choices for the sake of fun and immersion.

    Medal of Honor
    It does create an eerie sense of tension and excitement. This is probably as close as you want to get to real battle.

    PaRappa the Rapper
    The kind of inexplicable game that you have to own.

    Conker's Bad Fur Day
    It's a brilliantly bizarre, insanely fun 3D-platformer extraordinaire, and a wonderfully ironic swan song for the N64.
    • 92 Metascore
    • 100 Critic Score
    Rock Band 2
    If you already own the first game and all the instruments, this is a must-own title; if you haven't experienced the magic, this is a great place to start.
    • 92 Metascore
    • 90 Critic Score
    The ICO & Shadow of the Colossus Collection
    If you've yet to play either Ico or Shadow of the Colossus, then I can't recommend the Collection enough, and even if you've already spent a substantial amount of time with these two titles in their original incarnations, I'd still say that they're worth revisiting.

    Metroid Prime 2: Echoes
    Visually, MP 2's dazzling, organic-looking environments represent a quantum leap for console-based shooters.
    • 92 Metascore
    • 90 Critic Score
    Metroid Fusion
    A little too short, but the secrets are bountiful, and the addition of power-ups that potentially fight back is sublimely ingenious.

    • 95 Critic Score
    Final Fantasy VI Advance
    Assuredly, a great majority of RPGers have already beaten Final Fantasy VI multiple times, and while this game is pretty much a direct port, I still recommend it highly just for sweet nostalgia's sake.

    Madden NFL 2005
    Madden remains the best in the business at presenting football plays. The playbook and playcalling interface in this year's game are clean, easy to read, and snap to use. [Sept 2004, p.96]
    • 91 Metascore
    • 90 Critic Score
    Super Street Fighter IV
    Super Street Fighter IV is just more of a good thing and fans of the original have plenty of reasons to invest in it. But seasoned players who didn't care for the original SFIV won't have any reason to like the update because, despite the improvements and additions, the fundamental gameplay hasn't changed. [Jun 2010, p.88]

    Dark Nebula - Episode Two
    The game is clearly made by a professional, and I can't recommend it enough.

    ESPN NFL Football
    The potential replay value for the game is enormous. Of course, until ESPN has had a full season under its belt, the jury’s out as to whether first-person view is major revolution or a nifty diversion...but it’s very cool.

    Medal of Honor: Allied Assault
    If you’re just looking for the best shooter for the PC—a game that engages your senses, thrills your nerves, and impresses your neighbors—stop reading this right now and go get MoH: Allied Assault.

    LittleBigPlanet 2
    Whether you're looking for a solo diversion or online camaraderie, personal expression, or community inclusion, there's just no good reason whatsoever not to dive in and explore the many wild worlds of LittleBigPlanet 2.

    Guitar Hero
    Besides the enormous song library, you get an incredibly fun controller that helps make you feel like you're really rocking the Casbah to a sold-out audience.

    Metroid Prime Trilogy
    Three of the finest FPS experiences from the GameCube days gets the port they deserves in this stellar recollection of the Metroid Prime series.

    • 100 Critic Score
    Madden NFL 2001
    With some of the best graphics the PS2 is likely to see in a sports game this year, Madden NFL 2001 also has the gameplay to back up the window dressing and a fat selection of options to tweak the game to your liking.
    • 91 Metascore
    • 90 Critic Score
    Baldur's Gate
    It’s a huge, sprawling, wonderfully involved game that makes you feel as though you’ve read a fantasy trilogy by game’s end.
