    Star Wars: Bounty Hunter
    What’s the point of eliminating wave after wave of identical baddie if you can’t even buy anything worthwhile with the credits earned? My advice: keep your hard earned credits and use them to put a bounty on the head of the poor schlup that implemented the moronic money system.

    Mafia
    While the game provides an accurate depiction of the family business through a beautifully crafter story, its visual presentation is decidedly lacking due to lengthy loading times and poor textures throughout the game.

    Counter-Strike: Condition Zero
    Brings nothing new to the table. The Deleted Scenes are a nice bonus, but the meat of the game consists of bot matches with some objectives to complete. The game as a whole appears to be rushed, as if they just wanted the ordeal to be over.

    Chaos Legion
    Thrown in the face of a history of outstanding action gaming, Chaos Legion may just be one of the worst action titles of the year. Imperfect controls and lackluster gameplay.

    • 82 Critic Score
    NHL Rivals 2004
    Features slick controls, an outstanding presentation, and challenging play. Unfortunately, the game’s AI is a little too challenging to the point of being too difficult.
    • 65 Metascore
    • 86 Critic Score
    Off-Road Redneck Racing
    Very average racer, but nothing more than that.
    • 65 Metascore
    • 74 Critic Score
    Gunman Chronicles
    It is fun in places and does have some FPS gaming goodness, but it is too short in both length and originality.
    • 65 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Tao Feng: Fist of the Lotus
    It’s fun and some of the brutal visuals can be a blast to behold with friends, but on the whole, the game is just ok.

    Jagged Alliance 2: Unfinished Business
    New mercenaries, new toys, new game engine, an enhanced role-playing aspect, and more combat options combine to make this another winner from Sir-Tech.
    • 64 Metascore
    • 78 Critic Score
    Mission: Impossible: Operation Surma
    Engaging gameplay full of intriguing gadgets and weaponry, a tightly-wound story, and intricate stealth-action. Unfortunately, there are a few problems with the game, mostly graphically, as the framerate varies, unlike the detail, which is consistently mediocre.

    • 48 Critic Score
    World War II: Prisoner of War
    With outdated graphics that showcase choppy animations and low-resolution textures, and below average audio, plagued by horrible voice acting, the game’s presentation fails.
    • 64 Metascore

    Fire Blade
    While the action levels are exciting, things like the stealth levels, a bad draw-in distance, and ill-placed music detract from the experience.
    • 64 Metascore
    • 56 Critic Score
    Pirates of the Caribbean
    The lackluster sword fighting, terrible interface, and nasty bugs detract from the experience a great deal. Excellent naval combat isn't enough to make up for these issues.
    • 64 Metascore
    • 72 Critic Score
    Spy Hunter
    The missions are not terribly hard, but yet it still makes for a fulfilling experience to complete a mission.
    • 64 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Unreal II: The Awakening
    A large and varied weapons arsenal, as well as vehicular-based play, makes XMP fun to play; however, its apparent influence from other games limits its originality and future playability.
    • 64 Metascore
    • 30 Critic Score
    WWE WrestleMania X8
    Lacks any great game modes, the controls are wacky at times, the AI needs some major work and the name just doesn’t fit.
    • 64 Metascore
    • 54 Critic Score
    Wrath Unleashed
    Its aspects of action, while moderately engaging, are wholly unbalanced; in addition, the elements of strategy are watered-down for ease of play.
    • 64 Metascore
    • 83 Critic Score
    Dinotopia: The Timestone Pirates
    The gameplay is not worth spending the dough for unless you have children that are dinosaur fanatics in your household.
    • 64 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Pro Rally
    Gameplay, although it is rooted in traditional racing gameplay, is very much more challenging and can prove to draw even mild racing fans into its action.
    • 63 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    X-Men: Next Dimension
    Gameplay is solid, fun, and addictive. On the other hand, graphics-though they are fresh-could have been better.
    • 63 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Enter the Matrix
    It has a good story, kick ass martial arts fights, good graphics, and the cinematics in between levels are really well done.
    • 63 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    Van Helsing
    Fans of third-person action games will find the gameplay in Van Helsing satisfactory with several hours of enjoyment but beyond the fact you get to fight movie monsters from the past, the game just falls short with lack luster environments and limited gameplay.
    • 63 Metascore
    • 40 Critic Score
    Empire Earth: The Art of Conquest
    With the exception of new culture specific powers that are only available in multiplayer gaming, there is nothing in EEAC that enhances the gameplay experience or adds to what is available from the core Empire Earth game.
    • 63 Metascore
    • 78 Critic Score
    Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon
    In every respect besides multiplayer, Clancy’s Ghosts eliminate those damn pansy SEALs across the board.
    • 63 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    Furious Karting
    It just isn’t fun. It’s a classic case of a game trying to be all things to all people, but it lacks the wackiness of a game like "Mario Kart," the simulation accuracy of "Gran Turismo," and the polish of "SSX Tricky."
    • 63 Metascore
    • 36 Critic Score
    Batman: Rise of Sin Tzu
    Not only is the gameplay not fun, it is downright boring. The button mashing beat ‘em up is a genre that needs to be done away with and this game is a perfect example why.
    • 63 Metascore
    • 40 Critic Score
    Curse: The Eye of Isis
    Despite a moderately intriguing story, the game suffers from jarring controls and a clunky combat interface. While the visuals are generally good, the audio is lacking for a survival-horror game and a few glitches prevent a truly enjoyable experience.
    • 63 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Gangland
    Shoot outs are troublesome and hectic, moving around the map is too much of an effort, and keeping track of what you’ve actually done is a chore.
    • 63 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Rocky
    Overall I was quite impressed. I would very much like to see another game like it, but with a lot more difficulty.
    • 63 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Batman: Rise of Sin Tzu
    Offers fantastic action in its quality and quantity, but repetitive design.
