Poor and rich people alike have no excuse to look elsewhere for a sensible purchase.

Even more tragic is the fact that there is no way for you to turn the tables and play as the Arachnids. I don't know about you, but I wanted to be the first kid on my block to suck a human brain out of a skull with a three-foot long proboscis.

Spastic action, beautiful graphics and robotic sound effects do not a classic make.

Although the graphics and the sound effects could have been improved in some areas, there is one thing that remains a constant throughout the game: it is damn funny the whole way through.

The controls take some getting used to and the AI can be infuriating, but, it's still an insanely addictive game. It's one of those titles that'll have you storming out of the room swearing that you'll never play it again, only to find yourself back in front of the screen, Dual Shock in hand, half an hour later.

Great-looking models of some of the coolest planes ever made. Easy to jump right in and start blasting.

The game sounds better than it looks.

Die-hard point-and-clickers may be turned off by the lack of any real brain-busting puzzle action, but an engaging plot combined with terrific graphics and sound should make up for these shortcomings.

If you liked the first one and are bored its levels, this game is perfect for you. If you never got a chance to play the first one and want a solid trick-based game for the PSX this, too, is a great choice.

It's always nice to see a license stretch its wings succesfully.

One of the most intriguing blast-a-thons in recent memory.

Too realistic at times, with frustrating, overly complex features.

Dated technology, distracting controls, and some downright sloppy programming undo what could have been a great game.

If you have some vision, creative ambition, and a whole lot of time on your hands, RPG Maker just may be the game for you.

A mixed bag. And it definitely isn't for everyone. If you want a serious NASCAR sim and are willing to put up with some very schizophrenic graphics, this is your game.

I could go on for hours describing the game's pendulum swings from ground-breaking presentation and production value, to sub-par action and repetitious, short gameplay.

Although a brief new Age (Rime) with additional puzzles and subtle foreshadowing of the Riven sequel has been added as an ending bonus, it's not really enough of an incentive to play MYST over again.

A solid game for those who are looking for something fun and different, and it's not as complicated as Konami's "Dance Dance Revolution."

Imagine the ugliest person you know, and then imagine that the person is made to be just a bit uglier. That's how horrible the graphics are in this game.

Sheesh, this clunker might as well be subtitled "Interactive Espionage Game Design Basics for Dummies." How retailers can live with such rubbish polluting their shelves isn't apparent.

The lack of anything more in-depth, such as a career mode, severely cuts the replay value of Royal Rumble.

Blocky graphics, a complete lack of challenges or fun mini-games, and really bad stabs at humor make this game a drag.

While this magnificently dumb galoot blatantly treads on common ground, it leaves a lasting trail of wreckage that gamers will happily follow.

Perhaps the freakiest, most outright offensive title since "Panty Raider," this no-brain child of development house Xilam proudly touts its own immaturity, Fred Durst-style. Technically, that's why you'll have such a blast playing the sucker despite a few glaring flaws.

Fun as hell to play.

If you're looking for your first PSX golf title, this is the game for you. But if you're a veteran PGA Tour player, the 2001 edition of the series may not be worth the upgrade.

Tiger plays poorly and finishes last among this year's golf sims, and that's not the only flaw in this game's realism.

There are a few new mini-games thrown in, and the crazy cheat codes are back, but they're a fleeting distraction at best. This game is worth nothing to people who have played one of these before.
