    This is knuckle-busting controller-breaking button-mashing action all the way, and it still works as well as ever.

    It's a trimmed down and dumbed-down RPG for younger players that just may find an adult audience with its sense of humor and hilarious story line.

    For Dreamcast gamers who like to pilot their systems solo, Ooga Booga just seems like one long, boring trial.

    Chris Berman and Tom Jackson, both stellar sportscasters, don’t display the showmanship that’s the ESPN vocal trademark. They sound as if they’re doing their jobs, but with the clipped and monotone delivery, it sounds as if they wish they were somewhere else.

    Lots of options, plenty of races, and some challenge puts this racer in a league of its own – it’s actually better than some of the official NASCAR racers available now.

    Who is the audience for this game on the PS2? The answer is really only those who don't own either a Dreamcast or a decent PC.

    But the one thing that can’t be overlooked is that the game is over way too soon...(but) lives up to the engine it’s built on – it’s a great companion to "THPS2."

    If you're a friend-less hermit living in the mountains of Montana you may not get the full experience from this game, but if you've got people to play with, it's easy to overlook Timesplitters' flaws.

    Though it lacks the freshness of the earlier “Parties,” there’s still plenty of multiplayer value here.

    Packs more playability into one disc than some RPGs do with three. A true sleeper.

    The wide variety of reality-based planes combined with convincing engine sounds and strategic combat missions will please veterans of more serious sims, while the easy control scheme and familiar setting will please the kids.

    Nothing new if you’ve played the PSOne version, but a blast if you haven’t. Another problem -- it’s over way too soon.

    Like any program of its ilk, the quality of the results you get from it will be in direct proportion to the amount of time you put into it. Just beware of the memory limitations.

    The game will never live up to the PC version, and the two-player mode (although better than battling on your own), makes a mockery of the fun of the computer's multiplayer capabilities.

    Maneuvering Jehuty is about as intuitive as you can get with the use of a single analog stick. Every combat option from firing your weapons and thrusters to raising your shields becomes an extension of your hand.
    • 73 Metascore

    Not a car game just anyone can pick up and play. You have to be able to fully control the car, which is one of the game's biggest challenges; if you don't, you're in for a long and disappointing afternoon.

    Despite the out of date and fuzzy graphics, Body Harvest is one of those games that just refuses to get boring. With the wide range of vehicles, challenging puzzles and frenetic blasting action, there's something to please everyone here.

    It's a good title for what it is - Crash Bandicoot gone psycho.

    It's time to move on, Lara -- Angelina Jolie is waiting in the wings, and then you're done.

    The game’s best aspect by far is the sound – and the hours of dialogue which make up the base of the game’s audio.
    • 49 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    A good game with solid mechanics backing up its good visuals, but the depth and breadth of the game will have you sitting around waiting for more snow in a very dry season.
    • 83 Metascore

    It's one of those simple games that you know you'll be coming back to long after the latest racers have run out of gas.

    Fans of the title and the WWF in general will flock to it – everyone else will raise an eyebrow and leave it at the rental counter.

    A solid action strategy title that fans of the genre will appreciate.

    At an adult party with a bunch of players (and a couple of GunCons), Point Blank 3 is simply a blast.

    For gamers who found Virtua Tennis 2K2 a little too easy, or Mario tennis a little too silly. It's a serious and thoughtful tennis game with challenging AI and a host f options and features that bring the realism out.

    An excellent buy for newbies looking for humor and gameplay depth. While it doesn’t alter the franchise’s formula, it’s still as fun and frustrating as its predecessors.
    • 67 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    It's not the deepest game, nor is it lengthy by any means, but it is fun, despite the long periods of walking and talking.

    Dark Arena runs smoothly and plays quickly, which means you'll stay in the Arena a little longer than you thought.

    The game is over way too quickly, even if you do have the patience to sit through the endless conversations.
