    WWE Day of Reckoning 2
    There's little wrong with DOR2, but it's missing that star quality that puts you in the big leagues. [GamesMaster]
    • 76 Metascore

    WarioWare, Inc.: Mega Party Game$!
    The transition to Cube isn't entirely successful, and more new games would have been good. If you've got a GBA, buy it for that instead. [GamesMaster]

    Myth III: The Wolf Age
    Keeps the series on the cutting edge of visual excellence, but the storyline goes in the opposite direction, taking the player back 1,000 years before the first two games in the franchise.

    Speed Devils Online Racing
    Playable racer that's lifted above the herd by its online mode. A tad slow when racing on US servers, but the European version will hopefully be a treat.
    • 76 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Destroy All Humans!
    An original take on the shooting game and a subversive take on US paranoia executed with character and style. Destroy All Humans is hard not to enjoy. [Xbox World]
    • 76 Metascore
    • 90 Critic Score
    Battalion Wars
    Brilliant fun. An absolute blast from start to finish and, without question, the best action strategy game available. [NGC]
    • 76 Metascore
    • 58 Critic Score
    Super Mario Strikers
    Mario hasn't starred in something this weak since his pinball effort on GBA. [GamesMaster]
    • 76 Metascore
    • 74 Critic Score
    Silent Hill 4: The Room
    The most deliciously dark Silent Hill yet but the compulsive storytelling can't compensate for the fiddly controls, fractured structure and frustrating combat. [PSM2]
    • 76 Metascore
    • 81 Critic Score
    Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets
    Looks great and, while it can be a bit easy, the new sneaking skills, Quidditch and card collecting make Hogwarts a fun place to be. [GamesMaster]

    Midtown Madness 3
    The single-player is slow and unforgiving next to the white-hot motoring antics of the online experience.
    • 76 Metascore
    • 67 Critic Score
    The Sims 2: Nightlife
    A funny, worthwhile and well made expansion, but let down by slow loading times. Until Sims technology changes in a fundamental way, Nightlife is going to leave all too many home on a Saturday night.

    Pokemon Emerald Version
    Pokemon's winning concept refuses to crumble with age, and Emerald is as much fun as our old friends Red and Blue were back in 1998. [NGC Pocket]
    • 75 Metascore
    • 82 Critic Score
    Area 51
    Fast and riotous, with plenty of crud-faced mutants to shoot down, but the moment the chaos stops, so does your grin. [GamesMaster]

    NHL 07
    The graphics might be a little dated, but they still look good. The manual shot aiming works like a dream – the puck always goes where you want, and the targets that appear in the net make it especially intuitive for newcomers.

    Ready 2 Rumble Boxing: Round 2
    There's just not that much to it. Even the career mode suffers from a distinct lack of depth.

    Baten Kaitos Origins
    While it may look awfully similar to the first, don't be fooled: Origins tests negative for sequelitis.
    • 75 Metascore
    • 78 Critic Score
    The Suffering: Ties That Bind
    The excellent atmosphere might test your baldder control but your thumbs won't be troubled for a second. [GamesMaster]

    Chicken Run
    Fun to play, charming and challenging to boot, shame about its length.

    Evil Genius
    Anyone who enjoys constant challenge (the gaming equivalent of juggling with chainsaws) will find much to love in Evil Genius. The majority of the game's features function extremely well and the theme is rock-solid throughout. [PC Gamer UK]

    Bomberman
    It's exactly what you'd expect but DS makes it classic multiplayer stuff. [GamesMaster]
    • 75 Metascore
    • 83 Critic Score
    Unreal II: The Awakening
    It's so predictable that a player will find himself quickly out-thinking the designers. [PC Gamer UK]
    • 75 Metascore
    • 82 Critic Score
    Legacy of Kain: Defiance
    Whether you start as Kain in a towering Nosgoth citadel or as Raziel in the other-worldly Elder God Caverns, you'll find environments lush, solid and atmospheric. [Playstation 2 Max]
    • 75 Metascore
    • 76 Critic Score
    Savage: The Battle for Newerth
    Visually scrumptious, and innovative, but lacking the vital fluid of satisfaction. [PC Gamer UK]
    • 75 Metascore
    • 76 Critic Score
    The Sims: Vacation
    Unlike previous expansions it doesn't pack any real innovations. Looks like we'll have to wait for The Sims Online for that. [GamesMaster]
    • 75 Metascore
    • 88 Critic Score
    Star Wars Rogue Squadron III: Rebel Strike
    This is the game they should have made last time. Gorgeous, sizey and ambitious. The new modes just need a little more tweaking. [GamesMaster]
    • 75 Metascore
    • 68 Critic Score
    Painkiller: Battle out of Hell
    The story is pointless and the levels make little sense thematically, but forget cutscenes and everything else - this is about aiming at monsters and firing. Again. [PC Gamer UK]
    • 75 Metascore
    • 91 Critic Score
    Black & White 2
    There's a hell of a lot to do and it often feels daunting - like a big cross between Sim City and Total War. But it's well worth having a go if you think you're man - sorry, god - enough. [GamesMaster]
    • 75 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Pursuit Force
    It's hard not to like Pursuit Force. Even when you've started the Don the Run mission for the twentieth time you'll still be enjoying it. We fully expect an even better sequel next year. [PSM2]
    • 75 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Feel the Magic: XY/XX
    It's stylish, inventive and, perhaps most importantly, won't fail to put a beaming smile on your face. [NGC Pocket]
    • 75 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Immortal Cities: Children of the Nile
    Moving at a more restful pace than your average game, some may find Children of the Nile a little slow and unchallenging. But when you've put in the work, seeing your population grow and prosper is certainly rewarding, engrossing and even a little educational. [PC Gamer UK]
