    Drips with style in every possible way. It's a brilliant game, but at times it's more challenging than it is fun.

    It's not there yet (with this version), but we look forward to the elimination of players running through each other, balls landing perfectly in gloves, and a more simplified swing system.

    At the very least, a 72-hole tournament -- the mainstay of PGA Golf -- should have been part of the package.

    The biggest problem Lord Blackthorn's Revenge has is that even with the new things that have been added, it's still basically a dated game.
    • 73 Metascore
    • 84 Critic Score
    A fun platformer with a good mix of nostalgia and modern technology.
    • 67 Metascore
    • 76 Critic Score
    A fun game, but it could've benefited from more polish and a little more imagination.
    • 61 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    You have to own military manuals to make any sense of the thousands of acronyms which are "understood" in the game.

    • 75 Critic Score
    While it's about as edifying and substantial as potato chips, it's also just as engaging and tasty.
    • 49 Metascore
    • 35 Critic Score
    This one stinks of yesterday's diapers.
    • 52 Metascore
    • 68 Critic Score
    Fun for a few minutes but gets played out all too quickly.
    • 82 Metascore
    • 85 Critic Score
    Overall it shows how a rhythm game should be made: it's weird, witty, and addictive.

    If there was actually a sense that Smashing Drive modeled the rubber meeting the road, it might have been interesting.
    • 72 Metascore
    • 89 Critic Score
    Pirates' great mix of excellent control, superb presentation, fun third-person action, and ship combat make it far more interesting than most of the third-person adventures hitting next gen systems.
    • 74 Metascore
    • 68 Critic Score
    It takes far too long to get good.
    • 56 Metascore
    • 73 Critic Score
    An interesting concept for an action/adventure game with a deep storyline that evolves gradually, but it suffers from the scope of its technical glitches.

    • 94 Critic Score
    Perhaps the best enhancement to be found in NASCAR 2002 is the audio. It is light years ahead of previous installments in the series.
    • 71 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    The sheer pandemonium and brutal weapons can be pretty amusing, at least until the gimmick of all the explosions and rioting wears off. Unfortunately, that can wear off fairly quickly.
    • 68 Metascore
    • 85 Critic Score
    Features terrific graphics, sound, and a presentation that does what WWF fans really want a game to do -- recreate the whole experience in their living room!
    • 84 Metascore
    • 83 Critic Score
    If you can look past the graphics, the gameplay alone makes this game worth owning.
    • 84 Metascore
    • 90 Critic Score
    This is exceptional fun, tests the mettle of even the most hardened platform junkie, remains completely true to its roots, and delivers spectacularly in the graphics, combat, design, music, and most importantly, gameplay departments.
    • 73 Metascore
    • 75 Critic Score
    The graphics, while generally underwhelming, flow smooth and fast, and the controls match the graphics turn for turn. I wish all of the game was as polished as the best parts.
    • 73 Metascore
    • 84 Critic Score
    Blazes across your screen with incredible graphics, addictive gameplay, and deep play options. Sure, it's not flawless, but it's definitely worth playing.
    • 79 Metascore
    • 83 Critic Score
    While the gameplay will mostly appeal to the hardcore fans of the hobby, almost anyone will get a smile as they watch the cars roll by.
    • 92 Metascore
    • 91 Critic Score
    As good as a platformer as we'll ever see. However, it's time that the Nintendo brain trust hits us with something new with the same level of quality.
    • 76 Metascore
    • 84 Critic Score
    Has everything an arcade football nut would want. The gameplay is great, the graphics are incredible, the cheerleaders are cute, and it's an all around blast.
    • 85 Metascore
    • 82 Critic Score
    While T2E is essentially more of the same, and doesn't quite have the same "wow" factor of the original, the improved engine and netcode make it a much more solid game.
    • 70 Metascore
    • 75 Critic Score
    It's enough to make you want to hold hands and sing Kum Bai Ya -- if you can put down your GBA long enough.
    • 74 Metascore
    • 86 Critic Score
    With the opportunity to choose to "save" your mission replay to the Xbox's hard drive after every undertaking, combined with the absolute treat of watching this enhanced, multi-camera replay, Wreckless takes the concept of replay to a higher level.
    • 68 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Its combination of tricks and pseudo-strategy is a bit underwhelming.
    • 78 Metascore
    • 81 Critic Score
    If you enjoyed the lethargic pace of Tropico, you will likely find Paradise Island a decent enough expansion, but if you couldn't bear the seemingly endless waits for each building to be constructed, this add-on doesn't provide enough to make it worth a second try.
