    Ultimately an average game at its best and a frustrating and boring one at its worst. It's also exceedingly short.

    Players already familiar with arcade-style tennis games like "Virtua Tennis" will probably find the gameplay in WTA Tour Tennis a bit sluggish, and the lack of variety in the modes doesn't help the game's case, either.
    • 70 Metascore
    • 73 Critic Score
    A good, solid beat-'em-up with enough variety to stay fresh throughout.
    • 50 Metascore
    • 62 Critic Score
    The game doesn't really do anything to differentiate itself from these older foot-racing games and doesn't bring anything new to the table.

    Team Factor's dated graphics, sparse sound, and lack of interesting play modes keep it from measuring up to action-game heavyweights like "Counter-Strike," "Battlefield 1942," and "Medal of Honor: Allied Assault," and even to budget-priced shooters like "Serious Sam."

    • 75 Critic Score
    It does have a fanciful quest, endearing characters, and solid Zelda-style gameplay, and this should more than satisfy true fans of the genre.

    If you're more interested in the relaxing sights and sounds of Las Vegas than you are in playing a highly challenging strategy game, you might want to take a gamble with Casino Empire.
    • 68 Metascore
    • 72 Critic Score
    A solid-playing game that simply doesn't look that great.
    • 76 Metascore
    • 79 Critic Score
    By and large a very good adventure role-playing game, with a memorable cast of characters and plenty of pure action.
    • 79 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    The core game--and its various problems--is definitely starting to show its age, but if you've ever enjoyed The Sims at least a little, you'll probably find Unleashed to be a worthwhile add-on.

    Broadband-enabled PS2 owners will find that Tribes Aerial Assault is a fun, tactics-oriented online first-person shooter with some impressive technical features.
    • 79 Metascore
    • 84 Critic Score
    An extremely solid, long-lasting, accessible, and fun-to-play fighting game.
    • 60 Metascore
    • 55 Critic Score
    Could have been better.
    • 72 Metascore
    • 83 Critic Score
    While there are more available wrestlers and more custom edit options in this new game, there isn't much that is actually new, improved, or different when compared with the original release.
    • 78 Metascore
    • 74 Critic Score
    A tight game that experiences a few technical difficulties along the way...A straight port of the original along with a few extras thrown in.
    • 82 Metascore
    • 83 Critic Score
    While [it] won't go down in history as Rare's finest achievement, it's still a great action adventure game by any standard, filled with a surprising amount of variety and lots of impressive graphics.
    • 68 Metascore
    • 54 Critic Score
    A solid fighting game, filled with many likable characters. Unfortunately, the GameCube's controller just wasn't designed to work well with a game like this, and it cripples your ability to play and enjoy it.
    • 57 Metascore
    • 65 Critic Score
    Some players will surely find it all rather dull or frustrating. Still, this relaxed pace can be refreshing.
    • 79 Metascore
    • 86 Critic Score
    A well-designed, open-ended, lengthy role-playing game sporting impressive graphics and sound and a lot of replay value.
    • 55 Metascore
    • 67 Critic Score
    Ultimately, what's most impressive about Myst III: Exile is that it combines intellectual challenge with scene after scene of enchanting beauty.
    • 84 Metascore
    • 81 Critic Score
    The core gameplay remains solid and is perhaps a bit more focused.
    • 85 Metascore
    • 81 Critic Score
    A well-made, polished, and thoroughly playable game, and stock car racing fans should be quite pleased with it.
    • 61 Metascore
    • 56 Critic Score
    It's ultimately too simplistic, too short, and far too prone to bumper-car madness and pinball-like ricochets.
    • 67 Metascore
    • 78 Critic Score
    The developers have done a commendable job both of translating mouse-and-keyboard controls to the Xbox's stock controller and of not sacrificing the finer points of Commandos 2's extremely challenging gameplay.
    • 53 Metascore
    • 66 Critic Score
    A mediocre action game with a terrific license.
    • 63 Metascore
    • 52 Critic Score
    This disappointing addition to Stainless Steel Studios' everything-and-the-kitchen-sink real-time strategy game doesn't do much to justify its steep $30 price tag.
    • 65 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    The game's frustrating reliance on awkward platform jumping and its poor camera keep it from being recommendable to anyone at all.
    • 79 Metascore
    • 82 Critic Score
    A bit more work on the broad-scale strategy portions and the interface could have made Dynasty Tactics virtually above reproach.
