    A good game that ends before its time. Now that it's over, I want to go back and unlock all of the cars that I missed, but I don't have any desire to play through the entire game again.

    Not the best superhero game every created, Hero X still has its own charm. The action is well done, and the game has bright, lush graphics and a large gaming world. Stability problems are its bane.

    Though some of the missions were quite fun, there are still a few that had me yawning a bit. Typical search and destroy, find this, blow up that, escort him to safety… blah blah blah.

    Everything about it feels like a rushed production and in the end this is what finally brings it down.

    Sadly this game runs out of steam way too quickly but it does have a multiplayer option worth the price of admission.

    "Burnout" still holds the crown for most-realistic crashes, but Stuntman is the new champ of realistic body damage. Think you've seen a car get beat up before? Think again.

    MX Superfly is the best motocross game currently out for the Gamecube, and arguably any 128bit system, so a recommendation is inevitable.

    At worst this game still remains a somewhat enjoyable experience thanks to the deep customizability of creating rooms.

    Despite being one of the shortest games I have ever played, I still recommend SkyGunner. I've always wondered what Gladius or R-Type would be like in 3D. Now I finally have an answer.

    It’s almost mind boggling how the opponent can easily deflect your super power kicks but totally not catch the weaker shots you happen to unleash.

    Give it time. Don't expect to love it if you're not a Tetris fan. But if you loved the original Tetris, then play this new addition for a while. Soon enough, you'll discover the beauty of the game.
    • 71 Metascore

    It may not have the totally outrageous antics of NFL Blitz, or NHL Hitz, but it does thrive on contact, speed and transition.
    • 77 Metascore
    • 82 Critic Score
    The game’s finishing touches are what set the game apart from other titles. Nothing brings people out of their seats like good old-fashioned violence, and Slugfest will keep you on for feet for hours.
    • 47 Metascore

    A total disappointment, as it does not live up to its prestigious heritage that other Tetris games had.
    • 92 Metascore

    If you have a semi-firm grasp on reality, don't mind the machinations of evil tugging at your own sanity factor, then you will enjoy this puzzle-riddled romp.

    As a stand alone game could have benefited from just a bit of extra tweaking in the controls and graphics department, but as a companion game to the movie, it does satisfy the non-novice gamer.

    Too often I found myself cursing at the unusually hard to manage team attacks and screaming as I started the whole field over for the 100th time.

    Advanced strategy game fans will find Airborne Assault a true challenge and this game should not be missed.
    • 37 Metascore
    • 59 Critic Score
    The control and camera bugs made it somewhat frustrating to keep trying to progress, the enemy AI made it dull and too easy to battle, the side quests were mostly silly and I didn’t want to do them.

    Although not completely perfect, it does manage to provide a few thrills until the next Ricky Carmichael inspired MX title.
    • 83 Metascore
    • 95 Critic Score
    Every single aspect -- the controls, the gameplay, the graphics, etc. -- has been improved 110%. You may not notice all of the improvements at first, but the game will suck you in immediately.
    • 78 Metascore

    Aside from some fielding glitches and a few graphical annoyances, this is a great, replay worthy sports title.
    • 81 Metascore

    Sure, this isn’t a ‘real’ Mega Man game but after so many traditional sequels it’s about time the franchise explores new directions.
    • 64 Metascore
    • 77 Critic Score
    The kind of combat title gamers will find hard to put down and, while it suffers from a number of imperfections, the missions are far too engaging to care about the little things.
    • 91 Metascore
    • 93 Critic Score
    Simply incredible. The plot has depth, the game play has so many options and side quests that players will be immersed in this three-dimensional world for a long, long time.

    • 90 Critic Score
    Although House of the Dead has been done before, and Pinball has been done before, SEGA and THQ did a great job of mixing the two together and making a fun and unique title with plenty of challenge and replayability.

    A wonderful ode to the old school racing games of yesteryear and fans of the racing genre will be quite pleased and entertained by its intensity.

    Graphically I was disappointed. I was hoping for a little animation.
    • 70 Metascore
    • 68 Critic Score
    Merely an average game. It just doesn't have the graphical quality to compete, and there are other games with unique power-ups that would give it a run for the Cup.
    • 54 Metascore

    The levels are simple, but there is enough challenge to keep you interested, though older gamers may finish it too easily.

    An engaging kart racer, which while not as good as the top of the class Mario Kart, manages to hold its own in the crowded field of racing games.

    Sadly, Monster Jam fails miserably in all aspects and does not provide an entertaining title worthy of those fans that enjoy a good vehicle smash-and-bash.

    A solid adventure game... Just spare yourself and turn the volume off when you're playing Faust.
    • 86 Metascore
    • 74 Critic Score
    The environments are lush and the special effects are well delivered. However, in regards to the actual game playing, this is a typical strategy game.
    • 81 Metascore
    • 85 Critic Score
    Yes, this is another installment of a long-running series, but it is by far the best, most enjoyable one of them all.

    Overall this is the best F1 racing game to date, every detail, has been covered. The game plays great, the graphics are top notch, the sounds are realistic, and the ability to tweak and adjust everything in the game is fantastic!
    • 71 Metascore
    • 83 Critic Score
    The police pursuit ends way too quickly (only once was a roadblock encountered), but solid graphics and sound accelerate this game down the home stretch.
    • 59 Metascore
    • 73 Critic Score
    Actually playable, not too hard on the eyes, and pretty darn fun for those of us who hold to our classic fantasy movies despite the passage of time.

    As much of a wrestling and WWE fan as I am, there were far too many issues and frustrations while playing Wrestlemania X8 for me to enjoy the experience overall.
    • 80 Metascore
    • 89 Critic Score
    The levels are fast-paced and exciting, with lots of non-bloody mayhem. However, the game offers limited replay value, and will be too difficult for many younger players.

    If there is one word that best describes this game, it would be depth. Morrowind has a terrific storyline, enough quests to keep players busy for a long, long time, and exceptional environments.
    • 47 Metascore

    Hardcore gamers (young or old) would be wise to ignore the kiddy image and give the game a shot.

    Fans of light-gunners won’t find all the bells and whistles in "Time Crisis 2," but they will find a game that is thankfully much longer than TC2 with just as much action.

    If you love FPS you should definitely give this one a try!
    • 59 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    A good strategy game doesn't depend on graphics like some games, but instead needs depth of play that engrosses players for hours without micromanaging them to death.
    • 68 Metascore

    Has some drawbacks, but offers incredible fight graphics.
    • 81 Metascore
    • 78 Critic Score
    1) It's a blast to play. 2) There are a ton of extra items to collect and lots of hidden (albeit small) areas to explore. 3) The multiplayer mode is very explosive (in other words, it rocks).
    • 60 Metascore
    • 75 Critic Score
    This game isn't flashy, no stellar graphics to oooooh and aaaaah over, no damage (which would have made the game much more realistic), and sounds that could use some work...BUT, it is a good racing game with a strong and reliable game engine that works very well and makes up for the other short comings.

    Although the game’s controls can seem a bit complex and sometimes even a tad frustrating, gamers will have a good time learning as they play.

    Acquire did an outstanding job with the storyline of this game.

    There are so many bugs in this game that at times it is unplayable, and futile to even attempt to do so.

    Hands down the most entertaining boxing title currently out for the GBA. Unfortunately there are a few too many minor issues that ultimately keep this title from being an instant classic along the same lines of it’s predecessors.

    While it has a few frustrating problems, Attack of the Clones is just about as good as a Star Wars game can get on the GBA.

    Fans of the Bomberman franchise will undoubtedly find a lot to like in Red Advance thanks to the addition of the battle mode, mini-games, and charabom-collecting elements.

    • 96 Critic Score
    The attention to detail is mind-boggling. I don't know how they did it, but EA has created a game with enemies that can practically think for themselves. The soldiers will swarm around you in a deadly strategic pattern. Their intelligence is amazing.
    • 75 Metascore

    Addictive and graphically pleasing.

    For horse lovers, and lovers of the movie, I would rank this game higher, but many GBA gamers may find the action a bit slow and repetitive.

    Filled with all of the delightfully loony character of the Looney Tunes cartoons and their wildly hilarious antics, Space Race is a game that will not fail to amuse or bring a smile to your face.

    The counter/reversal/combination system is definitely a heavyweight champion.
    • 72 Metascore

    What it comes down to though is if this game can compete with other console platform programs. Only on an average level.
    • 79 Metascore
    • 84 Critic Score
    A graphically strong game that is crammed with action. It is not for everyone, and does have an undercurrent of pure evil in the story.

    The sound in GTA III is phenomenal - nothing was overlooked in this department.
    • 69 Metascore

    The entire control scheme hampers any fun that this game would have been, and is very disappointing!

    A decent expansion pack that adds new fun to the original, but is rather thin of content.

    Although World Series Baseball has all the modes baseball fans and sports gamers have been longing for, its awkward controls and mediocre graphics does not make this the ultimate baseball game to own.
    • 43 Metascore

    A game for those with a massive amount of patience. However, if you're a fan of top of the line simulations, the Norns may be a good pick.

    Every visual facet about the game is brimming with life, textures are crisp and colorful, shadows reflect accurately, weapons look very cool, and of course Duke himself has never looked better.

    Collision detection problems, too dark color palette, and boring objectives are the main problems. However, even a jaded reviewer like myself can find a lot to like with SpyHunter.
    • 71 Metascore

    A blast to play. Even though the game is on the easy side, it still has enough challenge to keep the players coming back for more.
    • 49 Metascore

    What is important here is the fun factor, which I think is pretty high. The game keeps you quite involved and makes you have the feeling of just one more game.

    It's the perfect car trip game. I haven't been on a car trip in years, and I haven't been on a plane since I was 12, but I have been in plenty of boring situations. Desert Strike would have been the perfect solution to all of them.
