    Frogger: Helmet Chaos
    Certainly seems to be directed towards a younger gaming audience with its colorful environments, cute characters and simple controls. The game is pretty childish with a straightforward story mode and a nice selection of multiplayer games.

    Suikoden Tactics
    It looks decent enough, and, excluding actual voiced speech, sounds decent enough too, but the overall package is a meager offering in a very competitive genre.

    Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell Essentials
    Splinter Cell Essentials is nonessential for any Sam Fisher fan.

    Untold Legends: Dark Kingdom
    Untold Legends sticks to its roots and doesn’t quite feel like it’s made the jump to the next-generation.
    • 60 Metascore
    • 63 Critic Score
    Blade Dancer: Lineage of Light
    The goal of the game seems to be that you level up to the point that you can walk through a new area without dying in the middle, and this isn’t enjoyable in the slightest.

    Mercury Meltdown Remix
    It's not an awful game, but it’s not exactly good either. Simply put, Mercury Meltdown Remix doesn’t feel comfortable on the PlayStation 2.
    • 54 Metascore
    • 63 Critic Score
    Rainbow Islands Revolution
    Rainbow Islands Revolution will only appeal to fans of the original game who are accepting of the new changes. Other than that, it really doesn’t offer anything new when it comes to touch-focused games because other games, like Kirby: Canvas Curse, does it better and with more polish.
    • 58 Metascore
    • 62 Critic Score
    Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 3: Mutant Nightmare
    Pick it up if you really love the Ninja Turtles, because although the game does have more merits than its console brethren, that’s not saying much.
    • 65 Metascore
    • 62 Critic Score
    Animaniacs: The Great Edgar Hunt
    Animaniacs: The Great Edgar Hunt is a decent game if you are between the ages of five and ten and enjoy the cartoon series.
    • 58 Metascore
    • 62 Critic Score
    Samurai Warriors 2
    The problem is the hack-and-slash title is mostly a rehash and the AI is unintelligent at best.

    Animaniacs: The Great Edgar Hunt
    Animaniacs: The Great Edgar Hunt is a decent game if you are between the ages of five and ten and enjoy the cartoon series.

    MS Saga: A New Dawn
    I remain unimpressed by MS Saga: A New Dawn as well as the Gundam series it's based upon. While Bandai has crafted a playable game with some points of enjoyment, the majority of its content is extremely dull and flat.

    NBA 06
    There are too many glitches, the graphics are poor and the game just isn’t fun to play.
    • 64 Metascore
    • 61 Critic Score
    Phantasy Star Universe
    Just about the only thing that is going for it is the online play, and even then $9.99 is a pretty steep price to pay for such an underwhelming experience. In the end, the game is a big disappointment due to its lackluster graphics, sound, and gameplay.
    • 48 Metascore
    • 61 Critic Score
    Astonishia Story
    Lackluster story, flat characters, and a mere fifteen or so hours of gameplay really make this hard to recommend even to the most hardcore RPG players.
    • 61 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Death Jr.
    It has memorable characters that certainly could have made it a standout hit for gamers, but it seems the developers didn’t put enough time into fixing all the faults that included problems with camera angles, controls and more.
    • 56 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Fullmetal Alchemist and the Broken Angel
    You’re probably going to be more hardcore and surprised at the light-heartedness offered in Broken Angel, but that by no means makes it a bad title.
    • 52 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Hammer & Sickle
    Takes an interesting concept and hammers it into the ground with a ridiculously high difficulty level and several issues and bugs which should have been resolved before the game shipped. Unless you are a die-hard fan of turn-based strategy, you should look elsewhere for your gaming fix.

    Dynasty Warriors Vol. 2
    It may offer more than the first one, which was a launch title, but it doesn’t offer that much more.

    FIFA 06: Road to FIFA World Cup
    Unless you’ve got an urgent need to launder $60, there’s not a single reason to go out and buy FIFA 06 for the Xbox 360. Go out and by the far superior (and cheaper) FIFA 06 for the PS2 or Xbox – both versions are excellent.

    Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six 3
    If you're looking for a fun shooter, and all you've got is a GameCube, this game would be worth picking up on the cheap, but if you can play it on any other system, then by all means do so.
    • 63 Metascore
    • 59 Critic Score
    Space Hack
    Personally, I’m not entertained by its gameplay because it takes little to no focus or attention to play through it. But where’s the fun in that?
    • 51 Metascore
    • 59 Critic Score
    Ape Escape Academy
    The game fails where it counts with bad mini-games, terrible instructions, slow controls and a pretty worthless multiplayer option.
    • 61 Metascore
    • 58 Critic Score
    Neopets: The Darkest Faerie
    It’s an average action/adventure game for the Neopets fan; everyone else is strongly discouraged from playing.
    • 58 Metascore
    • 57 Critic Score
    Commandos Strike Force
    It’s just another WWII-era first-person shooter.
    • 61 Metascore
    • 56 Critic Score
    Gauntlet: Seven Sorrows
    If it weren't for the enjoyment you get from playing with the people you've gathered around you or hopping online to meet up with other Live users, this would be a game that I'd recommend you stay far away from considering its repetitive mindless gameplay and rather lackluster presentation.
    • 76 Metascore
    • 56 Critic Score
    Silent Hill 4: The Room
    Silent Hill 4 may look pretty on the surface, but after an hour or so you'll have found out that like most pretty things, what's beneath can be pretty disappointing.
    • 60 Metascore
    • 56 Critic Score
    True Crime: New York City
    Riddled with errors, glitches, catches, freezes, clippings, and resets. If you can endure the insane amount of problems and don't mind that you'll routinely run into errors that'll force you to restart from the beginning of the current primary mission, you'll get some marginal enjoyment out of the title.
    • 53 Metascore
    • 55 Critic Score
    The Da Vinci Code
    The Da Vinci Code does keep intact a solid storyline of conspiracy and corruption, but the actual playable aspects of the game are pretty dull. You primarily find yourself sneaking around, fighting enemies and solving puzzles, but none of these aspects are done especially well. Overall there should be no question for gamers that The Da Vinci Code is one mystery that should be left unsolved.
