With few improvements over the last version, NBA Live 2002 is taking a risk by opening the door to its competitors.

The racing, judged alone, can be quite fun, but overall most gamers can't help but be disappointed in the games lack of a true multiplayer feel.

No heartfelt sense of victory remained after the beauty pageant had ended. A more comprehensive motocross biking game might have included racing, not just freestyle.

Nothing chaps my hide more than a really good idea for a video game absolutely destroyed by poor controls and subpar cause and effect.

Sunny Garcia Surfing’s lack of gameplay and graphics make it a weak contender at best.

I didn’t like that the bike could detach. It’s supposed to be used to help you but it always caused me more trouble than it was worth.

Definitely falls flat on its face with simplistic, arcade style gameplay and a lack of decent execution. Most certainly a bargain bin title, I wouldn’t even rent this one if I had the chance.

A disappointment...A neat idea having a city where the socio-economics are broken down so structurally. With nasty goings on occurring in the recesses of the city, I honestly wanted to love this game.

While the game certainly has a flair for the illegal, the graphics are just average. Characters all look underworldly, but they also look to remedial and blocky.

The addition of several features and planes, such as Multiplayer, ATC, Auto Generated Scenery, and the Cessna Caravan Amphibian certainly make the game much more interesting than previous versions.

Once they fix the problems, and I’m sure they will, the game will be a great diversion for kids and adults alike looking for a good, educational and more-or-less non-violent game.

If a 10-inch thick blade rammed through his heart has no effect on him, why should Sin Scissors' demon weapons affect him?

With graphics and frame rate no longer an issue, this time around, gamers will no doubt appreciate the depth of gameplay that the game has to offer.

It is challenging and it can take some time to get comfortable with the controls, but it’s also refreshing to see a simulator that doesn’t throw away the first missions by giving simple goals or weak enemies.

The unique racing experience offered here stands out from the pack of futuristic titles with high-speed action and gorgeous graphics.

Gives you enough to be entertained but doesn't leave you thinking you just wasted a bit of cash on features that should've been included in the first game.

Relatively unique in the fact that it makes clear use of the Hanseatic League and has many references to the history of that large organization, this title still fails to present worthwhile gameplay, leaving the character to shuttle supplies from town to town, without much reward or entertainment value.

Castlevania Chronicles will probably only appeal to fans of the series who can’t ever get enough.

While answering questions is fun, it gets boring watching the computer try to act like it's thinking about the answers and then waiting for a response.

A must for any fan of Tim Burton's style of movies or those of us who like our games to sometimes be a little left of center.

With stunning graphics and solid gameplay, you’ll be hard pressed to find flaws that take anything away from this game.

Save tilting and smashing the glass with my fist, I experienced many of the same challenges, frustrations, and triumphs as with my family’s old Williams Pinball machine.

The only thing preventing me from scoring this graphics masterpiece in the 90’s was the somewhat weak storyline and the tedium that got me down on more then one occasion.

It was a little slow at times and the control issues were frustrating, but the great story, incredible atmosphere and just plain creepiness made it all worthwhile.

Not only will you get your money's worth, but you’ll probably still be playing it when "NHL 2003" is released.

With a combination of stunning graphics, high-octane action and sweet multiplayer gameplay, NHL Hitz 20-02 comes off as one of those rare titles most PS2 owners will not want to miss.

With the exception of "Ico," this is the most fun I’ve had playing a PS2 game ever.

Aside from not producing the kinds of graphics that you’d normally see out of a PS2, Formula One 2001 also has a lackluster interface, unconvincing physics and damage engine, and a shortage of good audio effects.
