With incredible graphics, stellar gameplay, and an engaging story, Far Cry: Instincts stands proud as a testament to how good a game can be.

A rental at best, pure and simple. There are vastly superior action titles on the market, and everything presented here played better in the first game.

I had fun swinging and leaping about, doding the police and the enemy gangs, and just about everything else in this game.

Be prepared to come with a strong stomach, as this game earns its "M" rating in spades.

The fun of this game is that you can pick it up at any time and swing around for a while and then shelf the title for the day. It is a rare game that you can do that sort of thing.

I really wish that when companies port console titles that they put some effort into understanding the PC gamer perspective.

The fun of this game is that you can pick it up at any time and swing around for a while and then shelf the title for the day. It is a rare game that you can do that sort of thing. Even the full missions are short enough where you can plow through one or two on a lunch break.

As with Neverwinter Nights, community will drive this game and a lack of it will easily kill it. Hopefully the community will pull together with Agetec's help (perhaps through a contest or something) and this game will give both classes of players plenty to do.

I cannot stress enough how incredibly great this game is. The storyline, the graphical style and movie-like scene-shifting, the incredible score, the voice-acting, it's all top-notch.

Another place that the game really worked was the social system that was put in place. It's not terribly deep, but each town had its own life and people in it. The world changed depending on the quests that you did. The game had a level of detail in it that made me feel like I was doing something.

There's a ton of gameplay, it's simple, it's addictive and it's a heck of a lot of fun.

This game is a great foundation – now would be a great time to expand on it and fix some of the minor issues to bring out the AAA potential in this title.

A non-intuitive interface, some gameplay issues on the ice and little replay value.

A vast improvement over its predecessor, just by adding online play and improving the character management system.

Control-wise, it still suffers a bit from the transition of the genre from PC, but it's easier to see how it can be done and done well.

A vast improvement over its predecessor, just by adding Live play and improving the character management system.

A vast improvement over its predecessor. There are limitations to the hardware that really impact this particular platform, but 4-player co-op, even locally, is a great deal of fun.

Myst V certainly is not the leap forward game that the original Myst was, but if you like solving puzzles, Myst V will satisfy the Lara Croft or Indiana Jones in you.

The game is varied enough and contains enough special moves to give you a few runs though without feeling like complete repetition.

The two-player aspect might make it a wonderful game for a parent to play along with his or her child, as I think it makes a good tool for demonstrating cooperation and teamwork.

A passably decent game, all but ruined by some gameplay flaws and a lack of immersiveness.

Some of the more hardcore fans of the series may decry the lack of a plot in the game, but it really serves to get the player more involved and may also be a good draw for people who have never played the game before.

Fast, furious, funny, and a breeze to play through so it’s perfect for the weekend gamer.

This game is a refined and better game than "Burnout 3" even if there are a couple missteps along the way. The graphics, sound and overall sense of speed are greatly improved and the game is as addicting as ever.

A repetitive game that looks decent but has a horrible (lack of a) save game feature, Scooby-Doo! Unmasked is a perfect example of [a] recipe for mediocrity.

There are a few things that make me wonder how good the game could have been with a little more time devoted to adding more variation and leveraging some of the core concepts better. Either way, it is a solid effort that my kids are having a blast with.

Lockdown is definitely a good game for those who are new to the tactical shooter genre, but the controls hamper the enjoyment of the game.
