    Championship Bowling
    It's unsophisticated controls, stingy list of gameplay modes, and lack of depth are bolstered only slightly by a couple of funny character designs and some decent physics. The result is a game that even diehard bowling nuts should avoid.

    Black
    Black's first few levels are exciting, but the action movie formula wears thin fast, and the game's over not long after.

    Dungeons & Dragons Online: Stormreach
    This online role-playing game lives up to its namesake as far as the quality of its action-packed quests is concerned, but it doesn't have all the features you'd probably want.

    24: The Game
    Like the show's action, 24's gameplay tries to throw in everything but the kitchen sink, but in this case, it couldn't make any one of these attempts work well enough to be fun.
    • 43 Metascore
    • 33 Critic Score
    Final Fight: Streetwise
    Final Fight: Streetwise doesn't look good, doesn't play well, and it can't even get its unlockable bonus--the original arcade game--right.
    • 64 Metascore
    • 67 Critic Score
    Ys: The Ark of Napishtim
    This PSP port of Ys: The Ark of Napishtim keeps pace with the hack-and-slash action, but long loading times and other issues mar the overall package.

    Generation of Chaos
    Generation of Chaos is a unique and interesting strategy game that manages to be somewhat enjoyable despite its technical shortcomings and exceedingly steep learning curve.

    FIFA Street 2
    A significant improvement over its predecessor and is fun for solo players and small groups of friends alike.

    FIFA Street 2
    The PSP version of FIFA Street 2 plays about as well as the lackluster PS2 version of the original FIFA Street on which it's based.

    SWAT 4: The Stetchkov Syndicate
    The Stetchkov Syndicate's additional weapons, aggressive suspects, and new multiplayer mode breathe new life into an already great tactical shooter.
    • 41 Metascore
    • 45 Critic Score
    Street Supremacy
    Not to mention that Street Supremacy includes quite possibly the most perplexing and seemingly broken ad-hoc multiplayer mode we've ever seen on the PSP.

    MLB 06: The Show
    All of the little improvements, and there are tons of them, make MLB '06: The Show a masterful follow-up to last year's game.
    • 83 Metascore
    • 86 Critic Score
    MLB 06: The Show
    Despite not having a few of the features that its PS2 counterpart has, MLB '06: The Show for the PSP is a rock-solid baseball sim and a delight to the senses.

    The Sims 2: Open for Business
    By introducing new job-related skills, the ability to hire and fire employees, and a healthy number of new items, Open for Business makes it fun to put your sims to work.

    FIFA Street 2
    Putting this game into your Nintendo DS could seriously jeopardize the special relationship that you enjoy with your favorite handheld.

    The Apprentice
    If this haphazard collection of minigames was the best the developer could muster for an Apprentice game, The Donald may be due for a firing spree.

    Etrom: The Astral Essence
    An unplayable, buggy mess.
    • 77 Metascore
    • 74 Critic Score
    Black
    Black's first few levels are exciting, but the action movie formula wears thin fast, and the game's over not long after.

    Super Princess Peach
    It's an interesting bit of role-reversal for Peach, and it does a good job of defining itself outside the Mario formula, but the game is just too easy for its own good.
    • 68 Metascore
    • 71 Critic Score
    MX vs. ATV Unleashed: On the Edge
    Captures the zippy arcade spirit of the console versions, but doesn't always hit the mark.
    • 83 Metascore
    • 82 Critic Score
    Fight Night Round 3
    Admittedly, most of the improvements and updates found in Round 3 are merely incremental, but they're still enough to warrant stepping into the ring for another bout.

    TOCA Race Driver 3
    TOCA 3 boasts an awesome variety of racing disciplines, and it backs that boast up with some really excellent driving mechanics.

    Galactic Civilizations II: Dread Lords
    A strategy gamer's dream, boasting a rare mix of depth, customizability, humor, and replayability.
    • 67 Metascore
    • 67 Critic Score
    Tycoon City: New York
    The interface elements in the game are also fairly well conceived, but the overall package suffers from gameplay that doesn't offer much challenge, eliminating any sense of tension.
    • 55 Metascore
    • 66 Critic Score
    Sonic Riders
    Sonic Riders can occasionally be quite entertaining, but too many of those entertaining moments are overridden by bouts of frustration and weak mechanics.
