    Kingdom Under Fire: Heroes
    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.

    X-Men Legends II: Rise of Apocalypse
    A vast improvement over its predecessor, just by adding Live play and improving the character management system.

    X-Men Legends II: Rise of Apocalypse
    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: End of Ages
    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.

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

    Tak: The Great Juju Challenge
    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.

    Tak: The Great Juju Challenge
    A passably decent game, all but ruined by some gameplay flaws and a lack of immersiveness.

    Armored Core: Nine Breaker
    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.

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

    Burnout Revenge
    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.

    Scooby-Doo! Unmasked
    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.

    Scooby-Doo! Unmasked
    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.

    Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six: Lockdown
    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.

    Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six: Lockdown
    Do not pick up Rainbow Six: Lockdown for the single-player experience. If you plan on picking this game up be sure you have Xbox Live because that is the only place you are going to find meaningful gameplay.

    The King of Fighters 02/03
    This game will have limited appeal, and only those who are fanatics of King of Fighters are likely to pick up this game.

    World Series of Poker
    With graphics that are muddy and sound that will make your eyes cross, this title has to lean heavily on the merits of the mechanics. Thankfully it is able to deliver the goods and the gameplay is fast, challenging, and fun.

    WWE Day of Reckoning 2
    It isn't quite as good as the "Smackdown" series on PS2, but in this generation of wrestling games not much is.
    • 51 Metascore
    • 65 Critic Score
    187 Ride or Die
    No matter how you slice it, it's a sub-standard driving game in the vein of the "Twisted Metal" series without the sense of humor or fun that was found in it.

    • 59 Critic Score
    187 Ride or Die
    Unfortunately, no matter how “hip” the culture is for the background story, without a good game, it falls flat. Take a ride, and let this game die a quick death.

    Big Mutha Truckers 2
    It just seemed that the game conspired to suck all the fun out of it.

    Big Mutha Truckers 2
    If you like Redneck jokes and the idea of taking short trips in a big rig, you might get a kick out of this game.

    Metal Slug 4 & 5
    We should be glad they included both in this release and not separated them as Metal Slug 4 is the far lesser of the games presented here.

    Darkwatch
    The run and gun gameplay and unique storyline delivers, even if only for a short while.

    Dungeon Siege II
    If you are a fan of the series then you absolutely have to play this. If you are a loot junkie, like I am, then you have to get this game, but if you are a hardcore RPGer looking for a challenge, you will be disappointed.

    EyeToy: Play 2
    EyeToy Play 2 plays a lot like a flash game as it is fast and furious but ultimately not built to last. To combat that, Sony has provided us with an incredible catalog of unique minigames packed on this one DVD.

    Madden NFL 06
    This is still a great game and it is the only licensed NFL game out there whether you like it or not.

    Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon 2 Summit Strike
    This game is not very easy, but with the ability to choose where you're going and how you're going to finish the mission you may be able to find an easier way out of a situation than you were able to in the previous game.

    Sid Meier's Pirates!
    A ridiculous amount of fun... for a while. I truly love the game and have had an absolute blast while playing, but parts of it will eventually wear on you. There are very few unique environments and combat animations, and the dancing mini-game and other elements will eventually test your patience.

    Meteos
    I cannot stress strongly enough just how much fun and how addicting this game is.

    Atelier Iris: Eternal Mana
    The biggest complaint is that some of the English voices are really lacking, especially comparing them to how the Japanese voice actors sound doing the same (or similar) lines, and the entire jumping mess. Outside of that, this is a very solid title, and quite possibly a contender for 2005 RPG of the year.
