    For pure on-course excitement and graphical wizardry, Tiger Woods 2004 will be awfully hard to beat.
    • 83 Metascore
    • 86 Critic Score
    A great expansion that's a must for anyone who enjoyed Generals. It fundamentally improves the core game, it and should ensure that C&C Generals continues to be popular well into the next year.

    Neighbors From Hell's simple gameplay mechanics and quirky theme make it a fun, albeit easy and short, strategy game reminiscent of the classic '80s computer game "Spy vs. Spy."

    There really isn't much to Medal of Honor Allied Assault Breakthrough that you haven't already seen before, and it's definitely not a product that will make people go out and buy Medal of Honor Allied Assault if they haven't already.
    • 89 Metascore
    • 88 Critic Score
    Even if EA Sports had left every other aspect of the game identical to Tiger Woods 2003, the staggering number of new, playable courses alone makes 2004 worthwhile.

    Although NHL 2004 does fall just shy of beating out the competition, any previous fan of EA's NHL series will find very little to complain about in this installment.

    With the sheer number of courses available, the variety of gameplay modes offered, and the overall polish of the presentation, there just doesn't seem like a lot of room for improvement for "Tiger Woods PGA Tour 2005."
    • 85 Metascore

    In a few fundamental ways, the game actually does manage to beat out the opposition, though ultimately it falls a bit short of being the best overall package. It's still a really great hockey game in its own right, though.
    • 81 Metascore
    • 84 Critic Score
    A nonstop action ride that starts out on a high point and manages to remain there for the entire game. Gameplay elements that can be tedious, such as jumping puzzles, are limited, while the use of Force powers is accentuated.
    • 67 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Despite the fact that its graphics leave something to be desired, Blackthorne's gameplay and atmosphere are just as satisfying as they were on the Super NES nearly a decade ago.
    • 72 Metascore
    • 66 Critic Score
    Unfortunately, the game's lackluster visuals and simple and easy gameplay prevent this experience from being anything remarkable, especially in the wake of the much better, much older games that inspired it.
    • 66 Metascore
    • 74 Critic Score
    It's bigger and more ambitious than any of its predecessors, but XGRA is hindered by a few unfortunate technical and design issues.

    The "Madden" or "Tony Hawk" of stock car racing games. It's as close as you can get to the real thing.
    • 61 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    A mediocre re-creation of the sport, but it doesn't have the level of polish or any of the bells and whistles that have become standard in other EA Sports series, like "Madden" or "NBA Live."
    • 71 Metascore
    • 79 Critic Score
    Despite its bugs, The Temple of Elemental Evil stands as one of the most authentic PC Dungeons & Dragons experiences of the past few years.
    • 83 Metascore
    • 87 Critic Score
    It may not be the ideal real-time strategy game for the player looking for another quick rush of multiplayer battles, but its production values are impeccably well done, its campaign is long and captivating, and its core gameplay is complex, tactical, and rewarding.
    • 78 Metascore
    • 83 Critic Score
    It creates the most accurate representation of the world of Springfield ever put into a game, and it manages to make the gameplay surrounding it quite a lot of fun. Additionally, the game's overall sense of humor is delightfully self-referential.
    • 78 Metascore
    • 75 Critic Score
    A competent game that looks like it's only going to get better as time goes on.
    • 27 Metascore
    • 20 Critic Score
    It is just an awful game through and through, and it won't be enjoyed by anyone. Simply put: Don't play this game.
    • 31 Metascore
    • 25 Critic Score
    Deplorable, miserable, and abominable indeed.
    • 58 Metascore
    • 56 Critic Score
    The simplistic gameplay and the lack of both difficulty and any real pressing motivation to complete the game severely limit any appeal.
    • 83 Metascore
    • 83 Critic Score
    At its core, this is a first-rate action adventure game that features a good story, challenging puzzles, memorable battles, and some of the finest graphics and sound, to date, on the Game Boy Advance.
    • 51 Metascore
    • 54 Critic Score
    What could have been a pretty cool game is mired by a slew of poor design decisions, and, ultimately, playing Dino Crisis 3 is far more tedious and frustrating than it is fun.

    If you're drawn to this title because of the Lego name, just know that there are better futuristic racing experiences to be had.
    • 68 Metascore
    • 69 Critic Score
    Just doesn't feel like much of a step forward in the series. Instead it feels more like a big step sideways.
    • 68 Metascore
    • 72 Critic Score
    It's bigger and more ambitious than any of its predecessors, but XGRA is hindered by a few unfortunate technical and design issues.
    • 78 Metascore
    • 75 Critic Score
    The fact that the game doesn't hold your hand and force you through the story is certainly one of the finer points.
