    Its innovations with regard to timed-run and in-level goal designs are sure to become trends used in the next generation of alternative sports games.
    • 62 Metascore
    • 59 Critic Score
    The game's characters look and seem very faithful to their television counterparts. Some corners were cut in terms of the gameplay, however, and the result is a kart racer that isn't quite as solid as the best that the genre has to offer.

    While the idea of playing as these wrestling legends is certainly appealing, Legends of Wrestling sadly doesn't follow through with a game that's as good as its concept.
    • 72 Metascore
    • 71 Critic Score
    As an RPG, Lost Kingdoms lacks a lot of the depth, scope, and production values that makes the genre so compelling.
    • 50 Metascore
    • 53 Critic Score
    The game's poor frame rate seems almost inexcusable considering the hardware it's running on.
    • 55 Metascore
    • 49 Critic Score
    Those looking for the Frogger they grew up with should probably look somewhere else.
    • 79 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Definitely a fun game, but it's also a short one. It shouldn't take you more than five hours to go from beginning to end.
    • 93 Metascore
    • 93 Critic Score
    Other than the addition of mouselook--whose beneficial impact on gameplay cannot be understated--nothing much has been added...But--and this is a big "but"--GTAIII is a faithful port of a truly exceptional game.
    • 69 Metascore
    • 73 Critic Score
    One of those rarities that lives up to the spirit of its subject matter while also dishing out a reasonably decent gameplay experience.
    • 80 Metascore
    • 83 Critic Score
    Though it introduces a few new features that don't quite work, it retains and improves upon virtually every element of the original, both in its single-player campaign and in its multiplayer mode.
    • 58 Metascore
    • 55 Critic Score
    More of a self-running soccer simulator than a soccer game. The computer takes care of the majority of the controls.
    • 67 Metascore
    • 64 Critic Score
    Dinosaur Digs isn't nearly as visually or audibly rewarding as it could have been.
    • 84 Metascore
    • 85 Critic Score
    A remarkable amount of replay value for a licensed racing game, and it boasts what's arguably the most precise control of any console driving game to date.
    • 85 Metascore
    • 74 Critic Score
    The game offers strong graphics and sound as well as a good variety of modes, but it's held back somewhat by its lack of polish.
    • 78 Metascore
    • 79 Critic Score
    Occasionally frustrating, but when it's good, it's very, very good.
    • 53 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    Could be entertaining as a novelty for short while, but stops short of becoming a game worth playing for any length of time.
    • 71 Metascore
    • 64 Critic Score
    Unfortunately, there's not much here that stands out, making this feel more like a series of tweaks than what we've come to expect from a fully featured expansion.
    • 74 Metascore
    • 77 Critic Score
    Its graphics fall short of the best the console has to offer, but its blend of action, stealth, and driving manages to keep things interesting throughout.
    • 53 Metascore
    • 54 Critic Score
    Short, easy, and lacking in imagination.
    • 64 Metascore
    • 62 Critic Score
    A great-looking game, though the gameplay can start to wear thin pretty quickly.
    • 71 Metascore
    • 42 Critic Score
    Simple and forgettable.
    • 42 Metascore
    • 35 Critic Score
    Has virtually no lasting value whatsoever and just isn't much fun to play even as long as it lasts.
    • 78 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    While it's not the prettiest Xbox game out there, let alone the best-looking Star Wars game, it does offer good control and entertaining gameplay.
    • 88 Metascore
    • 91 Critic Score
    The action focuses on the turn-based management and strategic command of a small group of soldiers. This is a complex idea, but the gameplay of Tactics Ogre truly shines, and the Game Boy Advance is a capable platform for it.
    • 63 Metascore
    • 69 Critic Score
    An enjoyable if short-lived experience, and it serves as a good introduction for the uninitiated to the world of rhythm games.
    • 77 Metascore
    • 73 Critic Score
    Although the game does feature some annoying faults, it boasts impressive graphics, audio, and gameplay in a tight package that most baseball fans will enjoy.

    • 49 Critic Score
    The mobility of a box of trivia cards beats huddling around the TV nine times out of 10.
    • 67 Metascore
    • 73 Critic Score
    ZooCube requires quick thinking and patience, and those who are up to the challenge will derive quite a bit of satisfaction from this solid new effort.
    • 89 Metascore
    • 87 Critic Score
    Offers some of best value for the money of any single-player game currently available, and it ranks up there in terms of size, scope, and quality with some of the best games the role-playing genre has ever had to offer.
    • 80 Metascore
    • 88 Critic Score
    Quite simply one of the most exciting PC sports games ever created.
