Rampage World Tour is a bare-bones port of the arcade original, which means it's shallow but fun when played with friends for a short while.

The gameplay is incredibly unbalanced, the graphics are dated, and, most importantly, the game fails to capture the essence of the college football experience.

Big Bumpin' might have worked as a part of a large minigame collection, but on its own, it's sort of lame.

An undeveloped plot, derivative gameplay, idiotic enemies, and boring presentation.

There's plenty to do early on while playing The Tower SP, but after three hours or so, you can literally watch it play itself.

The updated graphics and tilt control support aren't enough to make Q*bert appeal to anyone other than extreme fans, and even those people will find something to be disappointed about.

A new Blitzkrieg game in everything but its title, Frontline: Fields of Thunder is yet another cookie-cutter WWII RTS.

The game isn't all bad, but its easy campaigns and straightforward, simplistic gameplay mean that it won't last you for very long.

To its credit, Mutant Nightmare is a touch better than the last game, "Battle Nexus," in that it doesn't force-feed you a gaggle of terribly clunky platforming sequences to try to keep things interesting. But beyond that meager distinction, this still isn't a very enjoyable game.

While it may have been aimed at a younger audience, the game mechanics aren't necessarily simple enough for the kids to grasp easily and subsequently enjoy fully.

Just doesn't even come close to what the competition offers in terms of gameplay--both in the fundamental mechanics of the game and in its technical aspects.

The interesting premise of Emergency 3 is negated by often clumsy controls, frustrating mission design, and terrible artificial intelligence.

Rayman Raving Rabbids on the GBA returns the titular hero to his platforming roots, but the game itself is so rote and uninteresting that it's hard to care all that much.

This game has more weapons, more tracks, and more cars than you could possibly know what to do with. But for all that content, V4 just isn't fun to play. The novelty of racing tiny cars isn't as entertaining as it used to be, which leaves V4 sitting on four flat tires.

There isn't much reason to continue playing once you've finished the second, kind-of-good mission. And honestly, there isn't much reason to even do that. Still, there's a germ of a good idea here.

It's not that it's entirely broken, mind you, but X-Men's missions are entirely generic and devoid of captivating content, and there are enough annoying little glitches and other obnoxious things prevalent throughout to give the game that thrown-together feel.

This rendition of Open Season is a plodding adventure full of inane fetch quests and lifeless dialogue scenes.

Many of the problems that marred the original game rear their ugly heads again, and new ones also pop up, making it hard to enjoy Wind Warriors' strengths.

If you look past a painfully weak back story and the painfully simple graphics, you'll find there is an enjoyable game to be played in Ball Breakers.

Only casual players with an undeniable urge to play online should be interested in the game as it is now.

Some of the greatest wrestlers from decades past are making their first-ever appearance in a video game, and that in itself is exciting. However, the lack of match variety, the sloppy control, and the poor overall execution make Legends of Wrestling a rental at best.

Those who missed out on the PlayStation version could still find a good bit of entertainment value here, but this dated title simply can't compete on the same level as current software.

Its limited use of cel-shaded graphics, which seemed revolutionary when Dragon's Lair 3D was first revealed two years ago, is now thoroughly outdated, as is its simplistic, puzzle-based gameplay.

Amazing visuals have come at a price--as a gameplay experience, Shrek is pretty unsubstantial. Only the youngest of players will find its gameplay compelling in the least, and even they, by now, have become accustomed to something more.

The game's solid level design and passable audio quality just aren't enough to make up for its numerous problems.

Too simplistic for fans of the strategic military genre, and too slow and complex for anyone looking for a high intensity shooter.

While the idea of playing as these wrestling legends is certainly appealing, Legends of Wrestling sadly doesn't follow through with a game that's as good as its concept.

Its short list of options, buggy gameplay, and generally tepid presentation prevent it from being anywhere near as enjoyable as the game it's trying to emulate.
