If you can ignore the bugs, the SFC V2 is one of the best games released in the past little while. However, in reality it isn't possible to ignore bugs in a game so my advice is buyer beware.

Hey, American McGee: Do more! I'd like to see Snow White done in the same style (with evil dwarves). I see no reason why this couldn't be a series of games, and I think the technology and the audience is ready.

Offers up a mixed bag - it's a title that offers an excellent plot, creepy sound effects and responsive gameplay. These good features are then marred by the games poor graphics.

Hell...the levels are fun, as well as the bonus levels, but when the game ends there is a very empty feeling. If not more levels included there should at least be a level editor.

A game without much to offer that you haven't seen plenty of times before.

A potentially great game marred by bugs and funky play balance, Sea Dogs is still not a failure. Visually, sailing around is breathtaking, and the gameplay has moments of brilliance.

Of all the games set in the Battletech universe, MW4 comes the closest by far to creating an "authentic" mech experience.

Nothing other than more of the same stuff that we've already seen and that is simply not enough.

Simply too little, too late... When compared against some of the established leaders in strategy games, Call to Power II falls glaringly short and if you're looking to purchase a new strategy game, your money would probably be better spent elsewhere.

The game would have been a great freebie to offer as a download. Episodic? Sure! Packed in with "Half-Life Platinum"? You betcha. Slap a price tag on it? No.

Great story, missions lack direction, but once you get used to the feel of Hitman it is really a great game.

For those looking for a simple 'opponent' to play against, you might be better off saving your money and simply playing chess online. As its multiplayer capabilities have shown, Chessmaster 8000 does not focus on this aspect of the game.

Yes, Virtual Pool 3 really does improve your game, I'm living proof! Blatant commercialism aside, Interplay brings back the best of billiards with VP3.

If word gets out that the single player experience is a bit short, and there is no included multplayer, then trouble is on the horizon for the developer and publisher.

Honestly, comparing "Half-Life" to NOLF is like comparing an Indiana Jones movie to a post-Connery Bond flick - just as fun, but not as "big".

Exciting, fun, addictive - Counter-Strike is an awesome game, but I'd recommend buying Half-Life Game of the Year Edition then simply downloading CS rather than purchasing this more limited release.

An incredibly amusing experience from start to finish, die-hard fans of Monkey Island shouldn't let the game's new look scare them away; when it comes to heart, this is the same old Guybrush.

The simplistic combat isn't always fun, but the awesome environments make up for it.

The game in the series that seems most accessible, and if you've avoided it up until this point, I'd recommend picking it up if sniping or large areas appeal to you.

The sheer size of the single player game is worth the purchase price alone, as is the multiplayer. Perhaps a lesser company would have sold the two separately -- since they're equally marketable and attractive.

I found myself playing all night, and well into the next day (8 AM). To make matters worse I'm not even a soccer (or football, whichever you prefer) fan really.

The racing is tough (especially trying to navigate these monstrosities through those checkpoints), and finding all the right shortcuts will take some time.

If you've got one of the consoles this game appeared on, I'd recommend playing the console version instead. This game is just more at home there.

Its gameplay was relatively good, but there is still room for improvement. The sound quips in the game could use some improvement and features such as the course editor could clearly use more work.

This game goes where so many better games have gone before. Games with better graphics, sound, physics models and combat systems.

Nice visuals and nifty RPG elements help to spice things up, but can't save this game from the quicksand of mediocrity.

A well oiled machine (not unlike Kirk Douglas in "Spartacus") that needs no fine tuning. While the pacing is a bit slow (even with the game going at top speed), the gameplay is nevertheless addicting.

Even though you're not breaking new boundaries in the technological field your definitely raising the standards in gameplay for RTS games to come.
