The lastability isn't extraordinary, but it is decent.

I highly recommend this game to anyone who has any interest in fighting games, especially those who were disappointed with "Tekken 4" or people who have a craving for the Mortal Kombat series.

Though the shortness of a game may sound like a flaw, it’s really not. In ICO’s case, a longer length would have made the game quite tiresome as puzzle solving & pulling the girl from he pits of hell could tend to get a bit repetitive.

The game may not be completely up to par with the competition in other areas, but the career mode is definitely the best to have.

The only thing about these simple controls is that the game’s response seems too sensitive to each use of the d-pad. Simple, and yet, they still have some gripes.

For those who are amateurs and have not played much of the Tiger Woods series you may find yourself frustrated at crucial times.

A perfect example of how it SHOULD be done... somehow the full size game has been crammed into the impossibly tiny (they are small aren't they? geez!) GBA cart.

With the PS2 RPG release list suffering, Dark Cloud could easily be named the best offering in this genre to date.

Definitely good in the sound department as long as you don't mind that there is no music.

Once you have a highly tuned car, the game becomes a lot more enjoyable as you now have a fair chance against the other cars. It will take a long time to get to that stage.

Once you get used to the unique style of play, it becomes second nature as any game does.

The one drawback in my opinion would be the replay value, as many people would find it pointless to replay the entire game just for a few secrets, since the story is the main reason to play a game like this.

Game mechanics may be tedious, but they are also very enjoyable nonetheless.

Truly a game of patience.

And your cars? Well, eventually you'll get some nice ones. Just set aside a month.

If you ever wished you could use the Goldeneye sniper rifle in a more realistic context, this is your chance. It's also one of the best action-strategy games available on any system.

Like a "Battletanx" meets WWF type of game; instead of the whole game being based around a B-Movie type plot, the game is based around an intense post-apocalyptic battle tournament.

A solid platformer, but also at the same time is somewhat generic.

Its lastability is the only drawback of the title.

There's one disappointment - the lack of animation. You may see two or three birds way out flying, but closer surrounding area are completely static; trees leaves do not move, glowing electronic billboards don't animate, ocean water is stiff as stone, and there is no detectable change in weather condition....Still the overall package is very sweet.

Most importantly, it is fun. Something that most games do not have going for them now a days.

Another thing that kinda irks me is the fact that the game pretty much flaunts a late 60's model Mustang muscle car as your main ride, but yet there is only like 1 mission that lets you drive it... its never the default car in any level.

It's great looking, amusing at times, and the Star Wars themes never gets old.

The AI and specific aspects of the gameplay need tweaking, and graphically it could stand a few tweaks too, but very fun to play regardless.

Diddy Kong may be a prize to little kids this Xmas of 97, but if you in the teenage or adult years.... This game replay value is slim to none. So rent if you're not buying this for your kids.

Given the free-flowing, non-linear nature of the game, gamers will either love the freedom to cruise around, or hate the lack of a real objective.

If you're starved for a platformer you'll find plenty to do here, but personally, I'm content to let the apes run free. For now.

Even with an online mode for competitions by rules set on the game's site, it just isn't enough that to keep you coming back to fish some more.

It’s a little short, and it doesn’t have a great variety of play, but WotS will satisfy those longing for a Bushido Blade 2 sequel.

"Zombie Revenge" does deliver a true beat'em up game with an excellent visual presentation and enough to make it worth a look.

The game offers a great ride while also telling us a little more about the inner stories of Episode II that were not mentioned in the movie.

Even though it is somewhat of dissatisfaction, I will say there is a bit of fun, but also frustration.

The game sucks you in to it, and wont let go.

If you need a RPG or just a game that lasts longer than more than half of the current PS2 line-up, then this game is something to pick up.

A just as addicting game as last years game, and improves pretty well upon it too.

But what can keep you going back for more are the key aspects like creating your own elite players to go head-to-head with all the NBA teams, or recreate your own signature dunks to showoff who's the man.

As for the actual game playing, this game keeps a F1 games physics, and gives you a sometimes unforgiving difficulty.

Definitely the best next-generation FPS out right now.

It's got the greatest rally driver endorsing it, all the cars, absolutely jaw-dropping graphics, realistic handling... but somehow, it just DOESN'T QUITE make it.

The story itself may not live up to the expectations of an engrossing plot with surprising twists, but the light-hearted humor of the game compensates somewhat.

I hate to use this cliché, but if you liked the first one.... etc. Just be aware that this game falls into the 'controller-throwing' realm of difficulty and frustration. But it also falls into the 'turning it back on 5 minutes later' realm of addictiveness.

If you miss the good old days of arcade blastfests, Cannon Spike is your wish come true. It's a good, exciting, simple game anyone should be able to pick up and play. Yes, it will all be over way too soon, but while it lasts you'll have a blast.

There is no shame in being inferior to a groundbreaking title like SSX. And while CB2001 has its share of flaws, you'll still get a thrill seeking challenge.

Doesn’t offer anything new to players who have played "Wave Race" and "Jet Moto."

Multiplayer fans should skip this title and pick up "Timesplitters 2" or "Red Faction 2" instead.

Casual sports gamers will often find frustration due to the computer AI.

It's a party title without the boring drama of rolling dice. It's a game that gets right to the point...the fun.

Adequate for those seeking a second dose of some hoppin beats and humorous raps from the crew.

Great game, horrible music. Very addictive gameplay, and different sports that are all crammed into one game combine to make a very innovative and fun game.

It'll definitely give you the closest experience to being on Who Wants to Be a Millionaire without actually being a contestant on TV.

Overall, this is definitely a decent 3D fighter, just it is too generic of a 3D fighter at times.

There have been a few improvements. Just if you're looking for a vast improvement you won't find it here.

Very decent. Old fans of the 2D installment and first time players should look into this title.

The biggest disappointment is the terrible multiplayer options in the game.

The missions are too short, the controls too slow, the graphics too dated, the characters too dull.

The simple gameplay and easy stages could easily entertain a child and keep him/her busy for hours, but an experienced adult gamer should easily be able to breeze through this game.

A pretty interesting one. But if you ask me the AI was way too easy in some parts of the game.

The game fell short of what I was hoping for, but it still was some fun to play.

Hardcore gamers should absolutely love this game because of the challenge it presents, but regular gamers like myself might have a bit of trouble swallowing the frustrating gameplay.

Extremely fast paced action and a very addictive style of gameplay will keep you playing for a long time, if the frustration of not coming in first doesn't settle in.

This thing is too easy to run against. I usually get a average of 7 yards on my running plays in this game.

There's nothing like watching a hot chic beating the crap out of a couple guys.

For what it sets out to do, that is to be a home version of the arcade game, 18 Wheeler gets a 99% perfect score, since the only thing missing is that extra driver. But as a game you play at home, it's just way too short.

Breathes fresh new life into a basketball game genre that has been very repetitive, in terms of games.

Generic sounds, with graphics that don't blow you away, and gameplay that matches every F1 game I've played before, it just isn't worth a pick-up unless you are a hardcore Formula One racing fan.

Unfortunately, it also has very limited long-term appeal, especially when you consider for the price you could buy a BB gun and go shoot cans off your fence.

I was truly amazed by how much fun this game actually is. The planes all look amazing, the action is exciting, and it is an admirable attempt to bring high-flying antics to the Playstation... That said, it's the very simplicity of the gameplay that scuppers the game, as it is at times far too easy.

Those looking for a brake from "SOCOM" will sadly be disappointed by what this game has to offer with a simply laid out list of options which simplify the game to a point where its no fun at all.

As much as I'd like to say yet another great Sonic title, this one just doesn't deliver past its looks and sound. So sorry to say this, but here's a Sonic game you probably should avoid.

If you ask me, LucasArt and Luxoflux pumped as much out of the Sega Dreamcast in terms of graphics and just gave up on the rest. I say again, strictly a rental.

It isn't on the scale of greatness as Mario, Sonic, Conker, etc., but it is a decent platformer for the almost dead console.

I had high hopes for this game, and it's been pretty much exactly what I was expecting.

If you see NCAA Final Four 2003 on the shelf just pass it and pretend its not there.

Rogue Squadron doesn’t quite work as well as it should. Frustrating, repetitive gameplay and eye-straining graphics hurt this title quite badly. In fact, I doubt that it would score so highly if it weren’t for the Star Wars license.

If, like me, you grew up watching the Dukes of Hazzard and pushing little orange '68 Chargers around your Hot Wheels set, you'll simply lap up Daisy Dukes it Out.

Overall, gameplay is its strength, but overall, it doesn’t seem to be up to par with its competitors, especially when drawing a player in.

The classic damsel in distress tale takes a sci-fi twist and then falls flat on its face.

It isn't bad, but this game isn't that great either.

With too many in game flaws and lack of customization you’ll be lucky if you can get through one season of NHL Faceoff 2003.

The game itself is long, but without an interesting story, fun characters, or even challenging puzzles, this version of Blinx just misses the opportunity to make up for the first outing.

Horribly stiff and unfriendly controls, a tedious plot with unskippable cutscenes, a graphics engine that slows down with alarming regularity and a general lack of the magic that makes a truly excellent game.

Well, if snow isn't on the ground outside, and you want to get an experience close to that of snowmobiling, then... take a vacation to Colorado cause you aren't going to find it here.

If you walk away from this game in less than a couple minutes I wouldn't be surprised in the least bit. The control is the most horrible I have ever seen, making is near impossible to control Ash using the control stick.

This game is horrible. THQ's long line of successful wrestling games has just gone down the drain. This game was just an overall extremely poor attempt at a game, and a laughable attempt at a wrestling game.

Of course misery loves company. So call up someone you hate, and invite them over for hours of terminal and ponderous gaming. Whee!
