    Beating everything in this game will be extremely tough. And this isn't a good kind of tough either. It's a throw-your-controller-the-computer-is-too-good kind of tough. Pity.

    This is a lot of fun. The car damage alone makes it worth it.
    • 79 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Scoring is what wins the game, but beating the crap out of other players is what makes the game fun.
    • 64 Metascore
    • 55 Critic Score
    What it has in excellent concepts such as wide open areas that stretch as far as the eye can see, and all the name brand trucks and Hummers you can drive, it lacks in updated graphics and control precision.
    • 49 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    Despite the decent options, the game is just an average racer with nothing to pull it out of the crowd of already ho-hum PS2 titles.
    • 64 Metascore
    • 77 Critic Score
    The game is pretty fun, but with its sort of linear game play (considering you're always moving down), and sometimes confusing objective layout, it doesn't quite sit as high on the throne as "Tony Hawk 3" does.

    An all too familiar Sega story: a refreshing new take on an old genre, featuring great control, sharp graphics, but crippled by lack of depth.
    • 72 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    When you're not being dragged throughout the game, you'll love the sharp, extremely well done graphics that hide a horrible truth; the programmer's were either extremely rushed or very lazy.

    It has graphics that match, if not pass the PS2 version thanks to a lack of jaggies...Controller aside, it just felt better than the PS2 version.

    If you own a PS2 and you do not own and play through this game 100% you will forfeit your right to call yourself a game player and should trade in everything you own and become a monk.

    Fanatics and realists should head for "Amped." Folks looking for a fun, solid game that just happens to take place on the snow will probably like Dark Summit.

    It seems that Capcom does listen to its followers, because CVS2 is light year ahead of its predecessor, in game play, options, and presentation.
    • 73 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Everyone in general is pretty stiff, and trying to control our hero while dodging the insane amount of enemies is more chore than thrill.
    • 75 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    What makes the game fun is its ease of control...It's light years above "Ready 2 Rumble" and "Knockout Kings."
    • 84 Metascore
    • 77 Critic Score
    Incredibly addictive and loads of fun...Sadly, the game only takes a few hours to beat on easy, and is ridiculously hard on the higher difficulty setting.
    • 64 Metascore
    • 55 Critic Score
    This is one of the worst attempts to make money with a Resident Evil type game I've seen in a while.
    • 82 Metascore

    The thing that stands out the most is the commentary, which is usually a weak part to most sports games.
    • 89 Metascore
    • 93 Critic Score
    Simplistic and intuitive controls are what make the game fun to play. The analog controls are dead on, and very precise.
    • 66 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    The same old stuff in a new skin and THE WORLD'S WORST LOADING TIME EVER.
    • 79 Metascore
    • 66 Critic Score
    Though the game has it's fun points, it comes off as somewhat bland, and you may be a little disappointed.
    • 81 Metascore
    • 75 Critic Score
    The close up celebration scenes are good but the players look a bit more blocky, that may be why the camera angle is so far out in the actual game.
    • 59 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    It looks good, handles well, and has a nice variety of things to it, but it doesn't stand out when tossed in with the rest of the PlayStation library.
    • 78 Metascore

    The first 2 hours are some of the most boring hours you will ever play in a video game.
    • 69 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Isn't quite stern enough to be a simulation game, nor is it easy enough to be an arcade game. What's left is a great looking game that's too shallow to be truly enjoyable.

    • 77 Critic Score
    A fun, solid game that's worth picking up...My one complaint is that the game only has two environments to drive through. As I said, they're huge, but the original had three, and the absence of one is noticeable.
    • 97 Metascore
    • 95 Critic Score
    Third grind is the charm.
    • 81 Metascore
    • 61 Critic Score
    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.
    • 80 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Controls are a cinch to learn and master, so the game becomes enjoyable in record time.
    • 70 Metascore

    One, why are the replays so dark? And two, why do they just give an overall ranking for the teams, why not also have it broken down by offence and defense?
    • 90 Metascore
    • 65 Critic Score
    [It] blow chunks. It's bland, it's repetitive, it's looked the same since it went to PS2 the first time around.
