    Fans of the film will enjoy interacting with the lovable characters and playing through the movie-inspired sequences, but those diligent enough to go through and complete every objective will probably come away from the game feeling a little disappointed.

    The first truly challenging expansion pack for The Sims... It adds lots of interesting and challenging new stuff that should keep any fan of The Sims busy for some time.

    It's also rather unpolished. But while the game may not make a very remarkable first impression, it does have some strong gameplay elements that give it some real substance and help make it deserving of your attention.

    If by some chance you've put off playing Vice City up till now, don't wait any longer.

    While there have certainly been worse Disney games in the past, this adaptation of Finding Nemo is just an average game with a few kinks that mar an otherwise decent experience.

    The expansion's scenarios, and the ideas behind them, seem tired and overused, and the expansion itself is overpriced.

    It's fun and more manageable than the original, thanks to the new campaign, and is ultimately a worthwhile addition to the original game.

    Even if you really liked Infection, you probably won't like this second installment as much, since it's just like the first, minus the originality.

    EVE offers little in the way of instant gratification, and progress in the game is slow and often unnoticeable.

    Despite its flaws, Day of Defeat offers unusually intense gameplay with excellent pacing, good weapons, and a really fine combination of all-out action and teamwork.
    • 91 Metascore
    • 86 Critic Score
    Just a really great action game in the same vein as classics like "Symphony of the Night" and "Super Metroid" before it, and it stands tall among the GBA's best action games, including "Circle of the Moon" and last year's "Metroid Fusion."

    A less-than-stellar RPG, though it's certainly competent, so undiscriminating fans of the genre who've played most other GBA RPGs already might as well give it a go.
    • 84 Metascore
    • 82 Critic Score
    A fairly uninteresting single-player game, but its multiplayer mode is a ton of fun.

    In many respects, Stake is the antithesis of "Super Smash Bros. Melee" and that game's best features.
    • 88 Metascore
    • 86 Critic Score
    The crash mode alone makes this game worth seeing, and the inclusion of the well-done championship and multiplayer modes makes it the best pure arcade-style racing game available on the Xbox.
    • 44 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    A turn-based role-playing game with a strange combat system, and at times it plays more like a poorly designed board game, where the rules don't make much sense but instead exist only to make you carefully scrutinize your every move.
    • 68 Metascore
    • 72 Critic Score
    A solid, complete baseball game, even if many of you have seen it before.
    • 90 Metascore
    • 84 Critic Score
    A textbook case of how to update a game like this--it makes a few solid improvements to the series' gameplay and visuals, and, most importantly, it doesn't break anything that was great in the first game.
    • 89 Metascore

    A great game... Any fan of basketball who isn't necessarily sold on the complexities of your average NBA simulation will find plenty to love here.

    This version of Splinter Cell is a good enough game on its own merits to tide over Splinter Cell fans looking for a portable version or GBA owners looking for a briskly paced game to have on the go.

    The saying "They don't make 'em like they used to" is totally applicable to video games, and Ninja Five-0 is a great throwback to how they used to make 'em.
    • 71 Metascore
    • 75 Critic Score
    A number of Xbox Live-compatible multiplayer modes for up to eight players (or four players on a split-screen) round out a good, solid Star Wars game that should appeal to anyone who'd care to relive Episode II's large-scale action scenes.

    The interface and poor control are bigger enemies than the game's Iraqi soldiers ever are, and in the end, this is a game you can surely live without.
    • 62 Metascore
    • 56 Critic Score
    A generally uninteresting futuristic racer that doesn't do anything that hasn't already been done, and done better, by previous futuristic racers.
    • 71 Metascore
    • 64 Critic Score
    Quite shallow, and while it could easily tide over Godzilla fans for a while, it ultimately relies on the strength of its license to compensate for its weakness as a game.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 39 Critic Score
    It's simple, short, slightly buggy, and generally not very good.
    • 74 Metascore
    • 71 Critic Score
    A racing game that puts drivers in the spotlight without sacrificing exciting ontrack action.
    • 55 Metascore
    • 57 Critic Score
    For all its problems, the single most grating aspect of Wolverine's Revenge is its sound.
