    I think if they had a little more time to work on the camera and control issues (and improve the graphics), Dawn of Fate could've been a great game. Instead it's just a game that the publisher rushed out the door, and it's mediocre (at best) because of it.

    Provides a number of strong enhancements to a game that already offers immeasurably high replay value.

    Chinese chess on steroids.

    An excellent surfing game that not only looks and sounds great, but also makes all three aspects of competitive surfing fun; the tube tricks, the face tricks, and the aerials.

    You'd have more fun watching both movies than playing this game.

    In a league by itself.

    Brilliant looks and attitude (each new level starts with the message "Kick Their Ass!") only get you so far.
    • 85 Metascore
    • 84 Critic Score
    While I would have liked more cohesion in the plot and more depth in the combat, the overall package is filled with enough fun and surprises to keep you playing through the end.

    Its simple, yet challenging gameplay will last a long time.

    Does a good job of capturing the basic flavor of "SotN's" gameplay. Indeed, almost all of the special moves you can obtain have been lifted directly from Symphony.

    About as challenging, fun, and multi-dimensional as an overhead aerial combat game can get on a handheld system.

    The Duke Kahanamoku of surfing video games. Yes, that's good.

    You can instantly tell that it was born out of corporate necessity, not creative passion. It's a game without a soul, thrown together to "fill a niche" and "target a demographic."
    • 80 Metascore
    • 84 Critic Score
    The best surfing game to date, with energetic play, a strong audio-visual presentation, and design mechanics.
    • 68 Metascore
    • 67 Critic Score
    Maybe the developers are just using the characters in an average game so people won't realize how average it is.
    • 87 Metascore
    • 84 Critic Score
    Although the game is technically lacking and isn't for everyone, it's one of the most original and engaging titles on the market.

    The combination of highly accurate aircraft reproduction, flight model and the rigorous aircraft management system should appeal to those armchair pilots anxious to take their turn around the pylons.

    • 84 Critic Score
    It never gets quite as fun or inventive as any of the Mario or Rayman platform games, but Tarzan: Return to the Jungle holds its own surprisingly well, and is a must-have for fans of its GBC predecessor.
    • 56 Metascore
    • 62 Critic Score
    A slightly-upgraded version of the unremarkable "MXRider."
    • 64 Metascore
    • 72 Critic Score
    A good puzzle game. If you can get past the load times, it's even better.
    • 69 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    A novice looking for an easy way to enter the world of virtual business-building would probably enjoy this game, but hardcore tycoons will find it a short-term diversion at best.

    To be sure, Grand Prix 4 is a souped-up version of its predecessors with no major innovations, but this is about as close as you can get to the real thing without being scraped off the pavement.

    If your PC has the horsepower, Battlefield: 1942 is an online action experience no gamer should miss.

    The screeching of the monsters when they're getting shot and killed is piercing to the ears. Coupled with believable voice acting and excellent moody music, The Thing will be music to your ears.
    • 77 Metascore
    • 85 Critic Score
    It's not all that new and not all that different from the other games in Sierra's classic "City Building" franchise -- but it's loads of fun all the same.

    Aside from the horribly awkward controls, Dino Stalker suffers from what can best be described as a lack of inspiration.
    • 82 Metascore
    • 85 Critic Score
    Despite such minor setbacks, the overwhelming characteristic of the game is high-speed action of the fun (and generally not too frustrating) variety.
    • 70 Metascore
    • 75 Critic Score
    A college football game whose gameplay just does not compete with its competitor.
    • 74 Metascore
    • 82 Critic Score
    The game hasn't changed drastically since its leap to the PS2, but two years of minor tweaking has made this the most accessible title of the franchise.
    • 78 Metascore
    • 81 Critic Score
    The kind of game that truly rewards skillful play, and like "SSX" before it, is a true joy to play once you've attained full mastery of the intricate controls.
