    Questionable design decisions, terrible implementation, and the apparent lack of faith in a project doomed long before its completion make for a game that is more frustration than fun.
    • 40 Metascore
    • 38 Critic Score
    It's a collect-a-thon that's not so big, not so deep, and not so tall, and it's also devoid of the fun that's craved by all.
    • 48 Metascore
    • 38 Critic Score
    If nothing else, this game should serve as a fine example of what not to do when developing a street sports game, and if it serves this purpose well, hopefully no one will ever have to endure another urban-themed train wreck like Freestyle Street Soccer.

    Clunky and unpolished.

    Starship Troopers has little dedication to faithfully re-creating the things that made the film unique, and it's a pretty lousy and technically deficient shooter to boot.

    The discount price isn't enough to make SnoCross 2: Featuring Blair Morgan an attractive purchase for even the most price-conscious consumer.
    • 51 Metascore

    Playing Appaloosa's ultraviolent and ultrastupid take on the titular killer shark is about as much fun as having your legs chewed off.
    • 49 Metascore
    • 38 Critic Score
    The game is inadequate and tedious--22 levels of mindless button mashing that will come as a major letdown to anyone who grabs it hoping to relive any portion of the film.

    Jaws Unleashed was a truly awful game on consoles, and it's no better six months later on the PC.
    • 47 Metascore
    • 38 Critic Score
    The unfulfilling combat system and poorly implemented stealth mode turn up the frustration factor to a level where even the most die-hard Alba fan will turn back to reruns rather than finish this game.
    • 31 Metascore
    • 38 Critic Score
    While there are graphics, they actually make the game seem less like a game and more like an exercise in clicking on things for no good reason.
    • 44 Metascore
    • 38 Critic Score
    A generic and frustrating side scroller that could have been much better had it spent a few more weeks in development. Likewise, more work should have gone into tying the game into the television show.
    • 39 Metascore

    Another key difference between Green Rogue and other games in the genre is the CONSTANT scrolling of the levels, which can be annoying.

    It was clearly developed with a younger audience in mind, but it is precisely this demographic that will be the most put off by its often-punishing difficulty levels and extremely touchy controls.
    • 44 Metascore
    • 38 Critic Score
    National Hockey Night's graphics are solid, but its no-frills gameplay modes and abysmal control leech the fun from the game, leaving a superficial shell behind.
    • 51 Metascore
    • 38 Critic Score
    Legion has many sound concepts, but just about everything falls apart in the execution, resulting in a game that runs the gamut from frustrating to just plain terrible.

    Polaris SnoCross totally bites. Unless you're desperate for anything snowmobile-ish, keep a safe distance away from this dud.
    • 40 Metascore

    Just about as broken as it was on the Xbox and PlayStation 2 last year, and thanks to the ill-conceived introduction of a mouse and keyboard into the mix, it manages to be even worse, overall.

    Yet now he wants you to drop $20 on this slightly functional, altogether bad game of poker that features nobody playing online and atrocious computer opponents?
    • 49 Metascore
    • 38 Critic Score
    A short, ugly, slightly buggy, and brain-dead beat-'em-up that all but nullifies the good work of the Budokai games.
    • 53 Metascore
    • 38 Critic Score
    Because of the inconsistent graphics and horrible, horrible physics in HSX, the game is virtually unplayable by anybody.

    Awkward level design and poor presentation make the 2000 release of Q*Bert a dull endeavor, to say the least.
    • 46 Metascore
    • 37 Critic Score
    As a licensed product, it's mediocre, with enough charming moments to rescue it from the immediate bargain-basement abyss. But as a game, it's an absolute insult and more likely to put kids to sleep than it is to entertain them.
    • 36 Metascore
    • 37 Critic Score
    A resounding failure. Unless you're a masochistic Fight Club fan looking to purposely have your sensibilities offended, then you'd be well advised to stay far away from this game.
    • 42 Metascore
    • 37 Critic Score
    The Third Wave is embarrassingly primitive in every conceivable way.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 37 Critic Score
    Weak graphics and dodgy controls hamstring an already mediocre air combat game.
    • 56 Metascore
    • 37 Critic Score
    The free flowing nature of the sport is stifled, and it all comes off as if the developers have never strapped a board to their feet and headed down the mountain, let alone hung out with a crew of real riders to find out where they're coming from.
