    F-Zero GX
    So-so bonuses notwithstanding, there's just nothing else like this on the GameCube.

    Battlefield 2: Modern Combat
    Xbox Live carnage on a profound scale - this is easily the best multiplayer game on the system since Bungie's opus. [Xbox World 360]
    • 85 Metascore
    • 90 Critic Score
    Freelancer
    Mindbogglingly huge and engaging, this is one of the great space games of all time... A classic. [PC Gamer UK]

    Sega GT 2002
    From start to finish, it's a class act, and one that you'll obsess over for months to come. [XGamer]

    Total Overdose: A Gunslinger's Tale in Mexico
    It's stupid, it's cliched and you can leave your brain at the door but, when you're having this much fun playing Total Overdose, can you really complain? [PSM2]

    Homeworld 2
    The clincher that transforms Homeworld 2 from a good game into a great one is the depth of detail. Every battle is an epic worthy of Lucas' early days; every backdrop a mind-blowing kaleidoscope of nebulae which constantly rams home the very vastness of space. [PC Gamer UK]

    The Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind
    Morrowind will please both serious role-playing fans as well as anyone looking for a technically stunning adventure that will hold their attention longer than your average hack-and-slash title. This is the good stuff.

    Unreal Championship 2: The Liandri Conflict
    It won't be for everyone - but the melee combat brings something fresh to the genre and the online games are absolutely cracking. [Xbox World]
    • 85 Metascore
    • 90 Critic Score
    Brothers in Arms: Earned in Blood
    But if you fancy a deep, serious game that represents a huge challenge - and aren't adverse to constantly studying a map and positioning your men before seeing any action - then this war hero is in a league of its own. [Xbox World]

    Worldwide Soccer Manager 2005
    Few developers have the ability to craft a virtual world with the amount of depth and realism that SI deliver here. For football fans, there is no better place to lose yourself than Football Manager's deep, stat-filled realm. [PC Gamer UK]

    Final Fantasy VI Advance
    A well-made game that's better than most RPGs that we've seen released these past few years, and all of the new additions in this version only help make it even more awesome.
    • 77 Metascore
    • 90 Critic Score
    Gun
    If there's a nit to pick with Gun, it's that it's short. Depending on how much you poke around, you can beat it in anywhere from six to ten hours. To us, that's no problem; we'll take a short amazing game over a long lackluster one any day.

    Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door
    An enchanting adventure in Mario's familiar world, with excellent fighting and a brilliant script. [GamesMaster]
    • 88 Metascore
    • 90 Critic Score
    Fight Night Round 2
    The repetitive training mode and fiddly defence let it down a little but, if being the main protagonist in a civilised man's most uncivilised sport rocks your world, look no further: this is a supreme sequel. [Xbox World]
    • 93 Metascore

    Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell Pandora Tomorrow
    In single player this is more an expansion than a whole new game, although fans will be happy. Online is what really steals the show. [GamesMaster]
    • 87 Metascore

    Midnight Club 3: DUB Edition Remix
    It all adds up to a breakneck racing experience that offers a lot of fun (especially when you consider the online modes) for a little cash.
    • 85 Metascore
    • 90 Critic Score
    Prince of Persia: The Two Thrones
    With the series' clever design and sense of humor fully restored, The Two Thrones is a stellar return to form for Prince of Persia.

    Age of Mythology
    The best Age game yet, featuring frightening fantasy units without all the bearded baggage. [PC Gamer UK]
    • 88 Metascore
    • 90 Critic Score
    Brothers in Arms: Road to Hill 30
    Realistic missions and tactics plus a superb squad system make this a must-take tour of duty.

    Phantasy Star Online Episode I & II
    A gloriously realised futuristic Gauntlet-style playground where you can chat, trade, cooperate and do battle. Pure magic. [NGC]

    Onimusha 2: Samurai's Destiny
    Brutal, bloody and brilliant with a massive body count. Few can match its looks. [GamesMaster]
    • 85 Metascore
    • 90 Critic Score
    Ikaruga
    Monstrously tough and definitely not for part-timers. Ikaruga is demanding but ultimately rewarding. [GamesMaster]
    • 80 Metascore
    • 90 Critic Score
    Broken Sword: The Shadow of the Templars
    The graphics and animation are consistently brilliant. There are some gorgeous environments to explore, a superbly adapted control system for GBA. [GamesMaster Magazine]
    • 83 Metascore
    • 90 Critic Score
    Fight Night Round 3
    This complexity demands your total concentration, resulting in an all-consuming gaming experience. You're gonna lose hours to this game.
    • 92 Metascore

    Metroid Prime 2: Echoes
    Not quite as blinding as the original but still a glaringly brilliant and consuming piece of first-person adventuring. [GamesMaster]
    • 77 Metascore
    • 90 Critic Score
    Perimeter
    Perimeter blows most traditional RTS games out of the water. There are so many unexpected options for attack, more ways to defend, more ideas to experiment with than you'd think possible. It's an enormous, gloopy toolkit of war. And we love it. [PC Gamer UK]
    • 79 Metascore
    • 90 Critic Score
    Tekken 4
    A leaner, more vicious Tekken for a competitive age - surprising how much two new characters add to an already classy game. [Import, PSM2]
    • 88 Metascore
    • 90 Critic Score
    TimeSplitters 2
    An instant classic with the best multiplayer mode of any console title. [XGamer]
    • 88 Metascore
    • 90 Critic Score
    Psychonauts
    Loading screens can stall the action on Xbox and especially PlayStation 2, and there are some rough platform encounters late in the game, but Psychonauts is still easily one of the best titles of this, or any other, year.
    • 82 Metascore
    • 90 Critic Score
    Tomb Raider: Legend
    Every second of this game screams skillful design and the result is a liberating game world that feels open and responsive. Nearly every object in the game reacts to Lara's influence, and this applies to the gamer holding the control pad as well - it's impossible to play this game and not fall under its tempting spell.
