I really enjoyed Gungrave. I was able to come to terms with it’s short play length and old school simplicity, but I understand that this game might not pack enough staying power to warrant the $50 price tag.

A veritable avalanche of gameplay options.

While some hardcore gameplay fans may appreciate the purity of this experience, the plot and lack of characters is so glaring, I find it hard to believe even so-called "hardcore gamers" won't find it annoying.

The game is great in both short bursts and over the long haul.

The characters are stiff and look almost mechanical in their movement. The character response time isn't all the great either. Most of all, SFEX3 lacks any type of fun factor. I can't recommend this game to even the most die-hard SF fan.

Not many people will be entertained enough to see the game through to the end, mainly because the bad control will cause you to snap your controller in two.

It’s got some decent control (albeit with a few quirky cameras), and a whole lot of potential, but I saw none of the flash that it should’ve had.

Awful sound, and graphics (although mostly sharp) that were contrived and dull, 4x4 Evo isn't nearly as technically sound as it should've been.

There's a dozen titles that look better, but they don't play nearly as well.

A solid, yet simple rally game that works for what it tries to do. Its lack of vehicle customization restrict its appeal, and hinders its chance against heavy hitters like Colin Mcrae 3 and even GT3’s rally mode.

Try it out if you must, but don't blame me if you PS2 ends up flying out your bedroom window. Mine almost did.

A more complete gameplay model with refined controls could have made this racing title of the launch, excluding "SSX" of course.

Short length and repetitive gameplay take a little away from it, but action fans should be pleased.

The most entertaining feature in Barbarian is, without a doubt, the interactive environments.

Suffers tremendously because of the control issues. Without the sniper rifle peripheral that made the arcade game a joy, Silent Scope is only a game that entertains in a brief, arcade-y way.

Having fun is great, but the rest of the package isn't as alluring as a sparkling new PS2 title should be.

By far a breath of fresh air on PlayStation 2, a system with far too many FPS games that simply have lackluster plots and characters that are basically on a mission to kill everything using the biggest explosions possible.

It blends military vehicular action with RPG elements and manages to pull it off fairly well.

The game has it's moments, but for every one thing that it does right, it manages to do three other things wrong.

Heavy on the pretty and light on the substance makes for a game that could have waited for round two.

If you are looking for an arcade basketball experience like no other, go for (the now greatest hit) NBA Street.

The second-best simulation basketball game for the PS2, but it's a far cry from "NBA Live 2001."

Sim junkies will be totally captivated by its career mode, and if you can get past this games technical woes, you'll have a great time playing.

Manages to be an entertaining RPG that navigates its flaws fairly well. There's nothing classic here.

The game is just a little more tedious to play than it is enjoyable.

It's not like playing 18-Wheeler isn't fun; it is. The problem is that it's over far too quickly and doesn't compare well to "Crazy Taxi" in terms of variety and replayability.

Unbalanced characters, cheap AI, and ugly graphics mar this game to the point that its' not even worth trying out.

The game's visual bugs, familiar gameplay, and suspect framerate make this game seem more like a devolution.
