    All things considered, there is a place for Greed: fans of the point-and-click "Diablo" style of gameplay will find quite a lot to enjoy here, and for all of its quirks, it still does offer a pretty immersive universe to delve into and all for 20 bucks.

    Overall, NBA Street Homecourt is leaps and bounds better than EA’s other basketball game, NBA Live, but still isn’t gaming perfection.

    Granted, I fell asleep playing it.

    Though the game has it's fun points, it comes off as somewhat bland, and you may be a little disappointed.

    With the large amount of areas Pipe Dreams 3D has plenty of gamelife, plus the game does get truly addictive after the first few times.

    After you get past the learning curve of the controls and the darkness of the graphics, the game is definitely worth checking out. Even with the exclusion of the multiplayer features, the single player adventure will be enough to satisfy the average gamer.

    I think the X-box magic is starting to wear off.

    What makes this game rise above its humble beginnings are the tons of unlockable characters and the six different environments.

    Some kid games are fun for adults, Backyard Soccer is not one of those games but it is very well done game for younger kids.

    You actually have to use EVERY button on the controller, pretty much all at the same time, or at least be able to access them quickly. The Xbox controller is large and the buttons are small, the game action moves fast. You do the math.

    There's a total of eight rounds, and the story is still genius (if you like extremely quirky non-sequitors), but I don't feel like I'm getting a new game. More like Parappa Version 1.2.

    It's got great potential, even high expectations, and in every department there is some glaring detail that cannot be overlooked. Had there been just a little more time spent with it, tweaking the small things here and there, it could have been a surefire hit.

    Ah yes, the joy of a horribly translated yet strangely satisfying gun came finds itself unexpectedly on American shores.

    Sadly, after a promising start the game falls into the pattern of a rather unremarkable shooter, with a hurried storyline, bland weaponry, and undeveloped characters that just happen to be placed in a Wild West setting.

    There's a ridiculous amount of flickering and billions of jaggies per square inch. There's also a small amount of slowdown when there are a lot of enemies on screen as well as some background animations.

    If there is one thing the Mortal Kombat series is good at, its giving you the bloodiest way to beat somebody's ass.

    If Illusion Softworks can solve the load-time issues and bump up the graphics a little for the Xbox version, they may have a winner on consoles as big as the one they had on PC.

    If you're a Crazy Taxi or Simpsons fanatic, this game will definitely appeal to you. If you don't care much about either, don't bother.

    [It] blow chunks. It's bland, it's repetitive, it's looked the same since it went to PS2 the first time around.

    Like the other Hunter games, features a limp sound track, silly dialog, and giant swarms of monsters. It's also really meant to be played multiplayer; the person playing by themselves is likely to end up frustrated by the amount of baddies and the punishing difficulty of boss battles.

    The wacky control requirements kill any desire to play the game. If you have a lot of patience, and a weird sense of humor, you may get a kick out of Illbleed.

    It's enjoyable but short, easy to learn but difficult to master, with a character who isn't quite compelling enough for the title to stand out in a genre that has too long been crowded and cutthroat.

    The problem with Nexagon is that the gameplay isn't enjoyable because of the all the elements that don't gel together in a cohesive way. The AI doesn't always work.

    This system is dead, and the best that you can hope for is a game that will keep your interest for a few hours, and D-Ball does it.

    The cel-shaded gimmick quickly proves unable to support an otherwise unremarkable title, falling to the roadside next to ragdoll physics and destructible terrain.

    A game that is less than its originator, in almost every way.

    However, if you are a fan of the Mission: Impossible movies and of stealth games such as "Splinter Cell" and in general, then you will want to check this out if for nothing more than seeing what the IMF team is up to nowadays.

    This PSX game is a complete mess from excessively square graphics to the point of almost block-head-looking-players. Plus commentating that seems 10 to 15 seconds slow.

    The clipping is absolutely horrible, particularly with the fish.
