    With all the right elements in place, Legends of Wrestling II had all the makings of a great wrestling title but its faults take away from the fun.
    • 59 Metascore
    • 69 Critic Score
    Due to the slower paced action, I would recommend this to people like me who were big fans of WWF Warzone back in the day, and don’t care as much for the faster, arcade style gameplay from Jakks Pacific.
    • 54 Metascore
    • 63 Critic Score
    The biggest frustration with Reign of Fire is the controls themselves, which are cumbersome in either setting and don’t work too well in a fast paced action title.
    • 83 Metascore
    • 81 Critic Score
    Realistic enough to be enjoyable, but not complicated to the point that only current or ex-pilots would be able to enjoy it.
    • 37 Metascore
    • 52 Critic Score
    Gauntlet with no multiplayer is like trying to drive a car with no tires. What the heck is up with that?
    • 24 Metascore
    • 35 Critic Score
    Legends of Wrestling II's graphics look like they were created by a five-year-old.
    • 78 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    It will astound even the most jaded gamer with its seemingly endless list of improvements.
    • 72 Metascore
    • 75 Critic Score
    The learning curve is a huge hump to get over.
    • 76 Metascore
    • 90 Critic Score
    I can not stress how much you need to stop reading this and go pick up this game now! There have been only a few good RPG’s released since GBA launch, this game makes it one more.
    • 77 Metascore
    • 88 Critic Score
    One of the strangest, most well-executed concepts in the history of the survival/horror genre.
    • 49 Metascore
    • 65 Critic Score
    There were too many shortcomings to bring a great idea into a finished product.
    • 74 Metascore
    • 76 Critic Score
    This game does have appeal, but it isn't a strong reflection of the college game.
    • 59 Metascore
    • 79 Critic Score
    It’s not perfect, but it’s a lot better and a lot less glitchy than a ton of other racers out there that I have played. After you get used to the controls it’s a lot of fun.
    • 82 Metascore
    • 91 Critic Score
    An addictive game that has a good spawn rate, wonderful graphical elements and solid sound.
    • 57 Metascore
    • 63 Critic Score
    A good, non-violent, racing game for children this Christmas season, but if you are an older gamer, it will not prove to be that much of a challenge to you.
    • 81 Metascore
    • 84 Critic Score
    Unlocking all the extras will take quite some time and mastering every fighter in the game will also prove a daunting task.
    • 48 Metascore
    • 55 Critic Score
    The controls are what kill this game.
    • 74 Metascore
    • 87 Critic Score
    An utterly impressive extreme dirt bike racing title with plenty of modes and enough tricks up its sleeve.
    • 81 Metascore
    • 92 Critic Score
    The Force is strong with this one!
    • 47 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    Plenty of cool fighting moves aren’t enough to save Dark Angel from its repetitious and boring cycle of fights and unoriginal design.
    • 75 Metascore
    • 78 Critic Score
    Like people, this game has its share of problems, but once you get to know it, you'll likely find that it's a game worth spending time with.
    • 78 Metascore
    • 76 Critic Score
    A bit rough around the edges, and the controls are too sluggish for today's high standards.
    • 49 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    The controls are also tough to manage or manipulate.
    • 50 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Each level just feels like the last level.
    • 65 Metascore
    • 90 Critic Score
    A joy to play.
    • 51 Metascore
    • 46 Critic Score
    Even diehard Shinobi fans won’t derive a great deal of entertainment from this one. It hurts to say it, but Shinobi truly has fallen from grace.
    • 54 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    A poorly translated movie-to-game title that offers very little in challenging levels and what little fun there is here is not nearly enough.
    • 44 Metascore
    • 49 Critic Score
    Extremely awful controls.
    • 70 Metascore
    • 92 Critic Score
    It is fresh, new, and puts an unusual twist on the ordinary.
    • 54 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    The audio track, control setbacks, and average physical graphics combine to make this an average first-person shooter.
    • 53 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    Ugly, unpolished and boring, Minority Report is best left on the shelf.
    • 48 Metascore
    • 75 Critic Score
    To be perfectly honest I like it more than the PSone Spyro games.
    • 61 Metascore
    • 75 Critic Score
    The challenging puzzles and great graphics will entice old-school fans, although the poor controls and somewhat simplistic gameplay will likely turn anyone else away.
    • 60 Metascore
    • 65 Critic Score
    The downside to the lock-on feature is -- yep, you guessed it -- it makes the game easier. A LOT easier. Without it, it would have been too hard, and not nearly as fun, but with it, you'll exit the game almost as fast as you came.
    • 76 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Bringing 56 well-known characters to the screen in tag-team combat, while maintaining the general animation style of the original characters is terrific.
    • 74 Metascore
    • 91 Critic Score
    The sounds of gloves hitting faces gives off a satisfying smack, and body blows have a painful thudding sound to them.
    • 77 Metascore
    • 83 Critic Score
    While never reaching the first-person shooter standards of games like "Time Splitters 2" or "Red Faction 2," this is still one enjoyable game.
    • 48 Metascore
    • 51 Critic Score
    Stay away from this game at all costs, if you see it in the store, turn and run away now!
    • 73 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    It's nonstop action with some of the most unique combat moves ever found in a video game.
    • 82 Metascore
    • 83 Critic Score
    Immersive, looks good and is an incredible challenge.
    • 81 Metascore
    • 87 Critic Score
    Savage and wildly entertaining, Deadly Alliance is a high impact fighting game that packs quite a punch.
    • 60 Metascore
    • 75 Critic Score
    One of the interesting things that sets this apart from other racers is the AI's ability to "learn" from how you behave on the track.
    • 62 Metascore
    • 75 Critic Score
    Newer gamers who haven't played the original might find this game to not be worth the trouble due to the difficulty.
    • 78 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Probably the best Bond game since, but not better than, "Goldeneye 007."
    • 80 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Does a great job bringing in the Bond-spy factor into the first-person shooter genre, and is a fun, although short, game.
    • 79 Metascore
    • 88 Critic Score
    Does have a few stumbling points, but challenges and entertains with exceptional graphics, and wonderful sound.
    • 70 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    A great game for gamers looking for simple action, a good mix of enemies, and steady progression through the game.
    • 69 Metascore
    • 78 Critic Score
    The free-form style of play keeps things fresh but don’t go into this one expecting to be blown away.
    • 92 Metascore
    • 95 Critic Score
    Fusion is so good that if it weren't for the small, unlit screen, you wouldn't even be able to tell that it is a "portable" game.
    • 63 Metascore
    • 69 Critic Score
    This is clearly not the best-looking fight program for this console, but it is very challenging and entertaining.
    • 56 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Though it was short and easy, I did have fun playing it.
    • 74 Metascore
    • 78 Critic Score
    The problem is that while the moves are smooth, the response time of some punches can be somewhat delayed (shades of "Mike Tyson Heavyweight Boxing") before they make an actual contact.
    • 93 Metascore
    • 97 Critic Score
    Features one of the smoothest, most precise, easy-to-use cameras that I have ever experienced in a game. This is perhaps the game's greatest innovation.
    • 97 Metascore
    • 97 Critic Score
    Metroid Prime is 100% Metroid. It may not seem like it at first, but believe me, it is.
    • 81 Metascore
    • 91 Critic Score
    My only complaint is the reduction of fatalities.
    • 74 Metascore
    • 90 Critic Score
    Captures the intensity of boxing and the enjoyment of the movies in a remarkable manner.
    • 79 Metascore
    • 91 Critic Score
    Diehard MK fans will surely love it, and all of my casual gamer friends think it's one of the best fighting games ever made.
    • 61 Metascore
    • 65 Critic Score
    The script for the game is very well written and the voice acting is superb. However, the rest of the game ranges from average to downright boring.
    • 54 Metascore
    • 62 Critic Score
    The problem is that levels themselves are just so poorly designed that there is no real appeal to them and they lack the certain charm as seen in games like "Aggressive Inline" or "Dave Mirra BMX 2."
    • 77 Metascore
    • 75 Critic Score
    Whether roaming the halls of Hogwarts, or stepping into the options to play a Quidditch match, the game does have entertainment at its heart.
    • 71 Metascore
    • 90 Critic Score
    EA did a great job on this game capturing all of the looks and voices of the characters from the film and books, and a superb job capturing the environments that look almost identical, even if a tad scaled down, to the film.
    • 76 Metascore
    • 72 Critic Score
    I enjoyed roaming around, but started getting tired of the dungeon crawling pretty quickly.
    • 77 Metascore
    • 88 Critic Score
    With a great story and plenty to do, the replay value makes this a game worthy of a purchase.
    • 77 Metascore
    • 88 Critic Score
    One of the best things about Chamber of Secrets is how close the developers stayed to the story purported in the book and movie without resorting to simple fetch quests and lame puzzles in order to integrate all the popular elements from the original plot.
    • 80 Metascore
    • 85 Critic Score
    An enjoyable outing in an historic time, Robin Hood offers solid tactical combat and delightful animation.
    • 88 Metascore
    • 82 Critic Score
    A new control scheme has been put into place that greatly affects how FIFA is played, but it doesn't quite deliver.
    • 86 Metascore
    • 93 Critic Score
    A terrific game on this platform. EASports has nailed virtually every aspect of this game.
    • 60 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Even with the bonus goodies, Wreckless is still that extremely fun game that loses it charms way too quickly.
    • 75 Metascore
    • 89 Critic Score
    Visually stunning. But more than that, this is game that will challenge cerebrally in a way few RTS games have in the past.
    • 62 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    A decently fun action game, albeit one that is a trifle short and a little bland, with not much difference between the levels.
    • 58 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    An average arcade demolition game that does have a good range of features but suffers from game play that is basically the same thing over and over.
    • 38 Metascore
    • 30 Critic Score
    If you’re looking for "Tony Hawk Pro Skater" for a much younger crowd or really love the show, Simpsons Skateboarding will surely disappoint.
    • 74 Metascore
    • 90 Critic Score
    Just when you think you have seen it all, here comes an Expansion Pack that more than doubles the original Game!
    • 61 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    I am addicted to this game. I can’t stop playing mission after mission. The strategy is fun, and the graphics make it visually stimulating.
    • 54 Metascore
    • 65 Critic Score
    The game does have some pretty detailed 2D graphics and nice sound, but the frustrating combat system and repetitive action make the overall presentation of the game lackluster.
    • 66 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Merely average.
    • 88 Metascore
    • 90 Critic Score
    Soccer fans will appreciate the added realism, but casual fans will probably see more of the same game as last year’s version.
    • 83 Metascore
    • 93 Critic Score
    Zero's sound effects are mighty impressive.
    • 77 Metascore
    • 83 Critic Score
    An intriguing and wonderful game feature is the magic-casting system. You find or buy runes and then memorize the symbol and using the control key in conjunction with the mouse, draw the rune on the computer monitor to cast the spell. The effect is stunning.
    • 73 Metascore
    • 74 Critic Score
    People who are a little more partial to straight up racing games will enjoy the jumps, mud, and craziness of Rally racing with some great game modes, great graphics, and a fun arcade style feel.

    • 45 Critic Score
    Even after you've succeeded in mastering the ridiculous controls, the game never really feels like a racing game should.
    • 44 Metascore
    • 55 Critic Score
    It was a failure as a challenge, and tribute, to a Disney film.
    • 53 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    An arcade battle game that lacks depth, but does bring some nice characters to the program.
    • 46 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    It's simple, yet still cool looking, and is one of the very few fighting games to include a four-player mode. It's not the best feature in the world, but it's something fun to do with your friends on the weekend.
    • 84 Metascore

    Even if you’re not a subscriber to the Xbox Live service, this game packs quite a punch with plenty of modes and missions.

    I cannot stress to how awesome this game is... It is just breath taking, and a great game to demonstrate the power of Microsoft's console, and their new online service.
    • 64 Metascore
    • 71 Critic Score
    Solid racing action but the interface needs some work.

    Control-wise, NHL 2K3 is sheer perfection.
    • 71 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    An extremely difficult, linear, yet well-polished game. While it has its flaws, the game design is excellent, and the graphics are nice.
    • 75 Metascore
    • 88 Critic Score
    The controls are top-notch -- even the thumbstick is usable, and it works flawlessly.
    • 66 Metascore
    • 65 Critic Score
    I was disappointed in the interaction between the Team Manager and your self, no video, just a static picture and a few lines of text ends up being your advice.
    • 82 Metascore

    Unbelievably exciting.

    Loaded with 40 new missions, 19 multiplayer maps, some new weapons, and mechs, this is a must have for any MW fan.

    An amazing experience from the very start.

    With good gameplay, amazing sound and absorbing atmosphere, Frontline is a great title not to be missed.
    • 78 Metascore
    • 85 Critic Score
    Where the game excels in its gameplay mechanics, it lacks in its visual presentation.
    • 77 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Everything about the game engine, graphics, sounds, and options roll into a well rounded Rally Racing game that ranks among the top of the genre.
    • 80 Metascore
    • 89 Critic Score
    The game does open up new areas of the island, and does challenge players. It is graphically strong, and a welcomed addition to the Morrowind realm.
    • 55 Metascore
    • 71 Critic Score
    As for the controls, the camera itself caused some goof ups here and there.
    • 71 Metascore
    • 85 Critic Score
    The campaigns are dynamic to an extent, but it’s very similar to many other “destroy everything” games such as Warcraft. Like that’s bad.
