It's a completely weak title. If you're a diehard KOF fan, you might find something worthwhile here, but I can't say as I found more than a few minutes of fun.

An excellent single-player racing game. It has great features, and its simple control structure and ability to work effectively with slower machines make this an excellent game for almost any racing fan.

The rare quality of drawing the player into the campaign and making him want to keep fighting for turf (even if it's the cold snow of Iceland) is Eurofighter Typhoon's most outstanding quality.

There’s nothing that’s going to knock your socks off, but enough for your 10 year old to enjoy it at least as a rental.

Unless you’re only into multiplay, Pariah quickly loses it’s appeal. First person storyline has low appeal and almost no replay value, and frankly, there are other titles out there that do it much, much better.

The surprising thing about Scaler is the game is just plain fun to play. The gameplay is robust with reasonably challenging puzzles to solve, the control system is enjoyable as Scaler is easy to move and smooth, and the story is humorous with a solid plot.

As far as the controls go though... oh, boy. Let me say that the control configuration is incredibly difficult as every button is used frequently including the never used L3 and R3 buttons.

As an add-on pack, Team Arena rocks. It adds everything I wanted to see in "Quake III Arena," but wasn't actually there.

There’s a level of immersion that’s created flawlessly through the often sharp visuals and impeccable sound, and if I weren’t the observant type, I’d be sure I was in the Matrix myself.

I'd most liken this title to Armored Core: Project Phantasma, as although most AC games have a small mystery going on in their backstory, this one is quite nasty, and well, like Phantasma.

The game itself is showing signs of wear. There’s only so much cosmetic surgery they can do and so many new lands they can create before it becomes obvious that the game is just on its last legs.

Even at the later stages of the game, it seemed quite easy to progress, offering little challenge.

It was missing however that polished interface and feel of Rainbow Six and also didn't have the in-depth tactical abilities.

It’s a niche game that will only appeal to fans of this genre. If you enjoyed "Zoo Tycoon," you are sure to like JPOR. All others who are interested should rent first.

A bit short, and to the point, almost like this was an experiment in RPG design from Capcom.

As far as my ears went, I think the jarringly bad voice acting, especially with units that are talking regularly, is what really killed me.

There are games that stand out, and then there are games that are just good. Painkiller doesn't really break any new ground, but it presents an experience that was satisfying throughout.

This is obviously a labor of love for the programmers who made the title, but the focus (a little known conflict in the early 80’s) is just too narrow to be of any entertainment value for all but the most rabid of war sim gamers.

As an interactive cinematic experience, it ain’t bad, but if it had to rely entirely on its own gameplay, then it’d be something else entirely.

The missions are well designed with sub goals available and there is plenty of area to explore.

What makes this game original is the storyline.

Although it hasn’t made up any ground against its competition, it doesn’t step backwards either. What World Tour Soccer 2005 does offer is an enormous variety of options ranging from over 900 teams to 18,000 plus players.

The controls seemed chunky, the gameplay wasn’t diverse, and the graphics were average.

Overall, it looks terrific, but there are some issues. Environments are a bit blocky, textures are a bit drab, and there are some noticeable framerate hitches, but Tak and the Power of Juju still looks great despite these faults.

I think the graphics in this game were best summed up by one of my friends, who said that these graphics couldn't be more annoying if they tried.

Personally, I would have liked a slightly more complex gameplay but what’s here works well enough.

A decent game but isn’t going to be on a top ten list. The graphics and audio follow suit with the gameplay by not distracting but not giving an impressive showing either.

With racing that’s both difficult and hard to control, as well a poor trick system, I’d be quick to pass this up.
