    A much higher score would be given if the ridiculously long 90 second load time between levels had been optimized. Otherwise, it’s a great shooter.

    A well-rounded, challenging game without much flash or innovation.

    With the addition of min-games like First and Goal, Blitz is destined to become a party favorite, but don't expect a lot more than last years game.

    Batman Vengeance had a hopeful start, but the controls, cameras, and crappy graphics make this bat look like a rat.

    It's a wild, insanely challenging, and great-looking game.
    • 70 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    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.

    A fairly dry, emotionless golf simulation that’s competent in execution but lacks inspiration.

    Better on the Box. Sharper, fuller, and more variable detail, excellent sound, and precise controls are all contained herein, along with the patented Crash game play that makes this such a fan favorite.

    You never really escape the feeling that you've played all of this before - twice, in fact... As for people who just like to drive around and cause mayhem, we've got one word for you - "Driver."

    The two biggest knocks against Confidential Mission are the aforementioned lack of real innovation and the game’s short length. You can finish the game in about fifteen minutes.

    Owners of the original, however, have little reason to upgrade -- unless the idea of beating a virtual Michael Jackson to a bloody pulp is just too juicy for you to pass up.

    Although not the stellar accomplishment that "Splashdown" was for the Atari label, it's still a solid effort, and a good choice for fans of motocross.

    • 80 Critic Score
    A witty and pretty game that's absorbing and charming, but ultimately will bore you with its long quests and constant backtracking.

    It wears on you after a while, but for new players, you have a lot of passengers to pick up before you get jaded.

    Uneven pacing, clunky interface and mismatched visuals undermine the game's potential.

    Can’t live up to its big brother on the PS2, but don’t let that stop you from playing it, especially if you’re a NASCAR fan. It’s fun, exciting, and very playable, but its hard to keep people who’ve seen the Sistine Chapel to appreciate graffiti.

    If you want something more advanced for your Advance, pass this fossil up.

    D2
    The game is over way too quickly, even if you do have the patience to sit through the endless conversations.
    • 69 Metascore

    This one is just a trip down memory lane that will bring a tear to the eye of old-school gamers, and tears of frustration to the eyes of newbies who don’t understand that this was gaming way back when.

    If not for the "xtreme" difficulty of the game, this would be one of the best titles of the year. It's still a landmark in terms of graphics.

    A definite improvement over last year’s game, this version offers the best baseball on the Dreamcast, but "All Star Baseball" on the PS2 is still the tops.

    Not only is it a fun, clean, and interesting platform game, but it includes the original game as well -- two games for one low price.

    It's just that Bungie was obviously trying for an ambitiously epic, innovative game with a distinct style and a hip, futuristic plot, and almost none of those new and unique elements work well.

    3D terrain, AI that for once is actually more intelligent than artificial, lots of things to build and most importantly pretty explosions when something blows up.
    • 68 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    Pretty vanilla, as RTS goes.
    • 68 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    It is a fun game that anyone can play without shelling out for added accessories or peripherals, and it simply oozes style.

    • 80 Critic Score
    A better-than-average motorcycle simulation, with a deep career mode and satisfying racing action.
    • 68 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    What it lacks in the variety of teams it makes up for in the variety of options.
    • 68 Metascore
    • 90 Critic Score
    One of the better looking shooters around, with spectacular special effects, "Gunship" is a worthy contender for "Freespace"'s throne.

    Fast and fun.
