It's about pure gameplay and solid mission design, and it's also a hypnotic experience.

While the PS2-level graphics make the game prettier than its PSone predecessors, the basics of gameplay remain essentially unchanged since the debut of the first title.

A racing title that blends adrenaline-pumping racing action to its purest level. Excellent physics detection and even better physical car damage and being topped off with crisp sound makes Burnout a title that should not be overlooked.

. It blends fast gameplay, great graphics, and a variety of option to create perhaps the greatest golf outing to date.

The game's brevity and lack of real suspense or horror make for a mellower game than anticipated. It's worth playing.

The sense of speed, the detailed graphics, and most of all, the fun makes this a great addition to the PS2 lineup.

Due to the sheer difficulty, it's actually only for a select few.

Beautiful graphics and bumping Trance music with jovial shooting to boot is a wicked combination any way you look at it. Definitely one of the best games out right now.

There are too many creative and technical glitches, but it can still be enjoyable and fun.

The game is fun for a limited amount of time, but due to its lack of depth and lackluster at best multi-player mode, you will probably not find yourself playing this game whole a helluva lot once that initial excitement wears off.

Well-presented, deep and involving.

Once you begin to see some of the same puzzles present itself, and the soundtrack begins to chafe, you will probably begin to lose interest, but that doesn't mean you should avoid this title. As a matter of fact, the game can get quite addictive.

It's solid and has a ton of dungeon crawling. But don't expect the story to still be percolating in your mind six months after you finish.

It was the sound that really sets Drakan: The Ancients Gates apart from other action/adventures.

Without a doubt, the best arcade hockey game out there. If you're a hockey fan, or even a general sports fan, you should check this game out.

It's not the giant that its characters are, but it is a pretty big fish that should be checked out, by rental at least.

Stunning visuals, spectacular gameplay, and a realistic plot.

The simulated gameplay is well created, the depth is more than appropriate, and the graphics are quite good, but the repetitive soundtrack and somewhat frustrating races and opponents take away from the fun factor.

Some baseball games may offer sharper graphics or more voice acting, but no game offers a deeper, more realistic simulation of America's pastime.

Takes an established genre and gives it an SSX-style touch. Wipeout fans everywhere should give this game a try.

One mighty fine soccer game. Yep, mighty fine indeed.

Fluid gameplay, great visuals, and a huge amount of overall depth easily override some low-key soundtracks, a frustrating camera, and a high degree of difficulty.

The game is pretty simple in terms of menus and navigation, yet incredibly in-depth in terms of styles of music you can mix and match.

The game still continues to have a great sense of speed and the thrill for being chased.

The graphics are excellent, the replays are amazing, the gameplay is solid, and even though the sound is sub-par, it's definitely worth a rent for racing fans.

A solid game. It doesn't make anywhere near the full use of the PS2, nor does it add a lot to the mix in order to compensate for the natural lack of ubiquitous mouse/keyboard support and Internet play.

Underneath the silver lining of good graphics and bunches of options lies seriously flawed gameplay that ultimately ruins the experience.

A huge success. With great graphics, hilarious situations, and solid gameplay, MLB Slugfest 20-03 brings fun to a sport that is known for its slow-paced tempo.
