A solid RPG... even if it isn't as deep or difficult as the original.

It's a great game to own, especially given its low retail price, but this version is not an essential purchase.

Makes up for its technical shortcomings with a great location and an impressive amount of detail.

Had the battle sequences not been so maddeningly frustrating and frequent, Evil Dead: Hail to the King would at least weigh in as a decent Resident Evil clone, but they work to make the game almost unplayable.

Die-hard fans of the original may feel a twinge of déjà vu when they dig into the update. For everyone else, though, Colin McRae Rally 2.0 represents one of the most solidly addictive racing experiences that money can buy.

The interesting level design, copious eye candy, and heavily touted online play are crippled by the games fumbled controls.

It's clearly stated on the box that it isn't suitable for inexperienced players, while those who are experienced enough to explore the new lands it has to offer will certainly find these areas to be extremely challenging and rewarding.

Though it has some startling moments and a few fun sections, it's mostly just a mediocre version of a mediocre game.

A slow-paced but rewarding simulation that borders on relaxing.

While far from perfect, it is easily the best surfing game on the market, but more importantly, it's also a fun game.

Ultimately, Earth 2150 delivers complex and challenging gameplay - and even an absorbing story.

Meant to be dark and atmospheric. It's set in a strange amusement park. And when it makes sense, it can be fairly creepy. Unfortunately, it doesn't make sense very often.

It can be endlessly frustrating, but it also has most of the elements that make the Jagged Alliance series so outstanding.

It enhances a number of the original game's features, adds a handful of new ones, and, ultimately, it will undoubtedly please racing enthusiasts and interested beginners alike.

The inclusion of different gameplay elements drag down what is otherwise an oftentimes surprisingly playable game.

Awkward level design and poor presentation make the 2000 release of Q*Bert a dull endeavor, to say the least.

Why only three CPU opponents? Why only support for two human players? Why can't the CPU race on custom tracks? The Dreamcast could have done better.

While the innovative game mechanics are challenging and fun at first, they quickly become frustrating where precise or fast control is needed.

The game's incomplete interface, uneven pacing, and typical units all serve to make it less interesting than it might have been.

As solid a game as any of its predecessors.

A worthy enough "sequel" to the original and can deliver an adequate number of thrills, though nothing unique or surprising.

If you're a hard-core video game wrestling fan with a cadre of game systems, there are better choices.

The less than engaging storyline and the heavy focus on defensive missions holds the game back and keeps it from being as good as the classics.

If you're in the mood for a game where each event is reasonably well designed and integrated into a greater, meatier whole, then Infogrames' Xtreme Sports should prove satisfying.

Massages the retinas quite well, but the cheap AI and random power-ups place an unwanted emphasis on luck instead of skill.

The graphics may be unparalleled in the series, but fans of the series will be greatly disappointed by the lack of innovation and features.

Unfortunately, Prye's adventures aren't anywhere near as exciting as they might sound because of the game's poor control, its awkward camera angles, and its simplistic and repetitive story.

FIFA 2001 isn't flawless, but the game is extremely well rounded and it excels in every category.
