    Painful to play, painful to watch, foolish to purchase.
    • 72 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    It's a little better than last year's game, and the play editor helps, but you've seen this, and done this, before.

    Casual gamers should pass Danger Girl like a bad bowl of chili.
    • 52 Metascore
    • 90 Critic Score
    Fans of "StarCraft" "WarCraft," and even "Myth" will love this new addition to the real-time strategy genre, and Trek fans finally have worlds of their own to build, populate -- or destroy.

    Its solid visuals, imaginative tracks, tight control, and over-the-top physics model make it a winner in the arcade racing genre.

    Not enough for you? If this isn't the ultimate football game, you need to suit up and play for real.

    • 80 Critic Score
    Multiplayer is just as frenetic as always, including 8 modes from the classic Monkey Tag to Capture the Flag.
    • 84 Metascore
    • 90 Critic Score
    Its solid visuals, imaginative tracks, tight control, and over-the-top physics model make it a winner in the arcade racing genre.

    • 80 Critic Score
    It's the gameplay, though, where NHL Faceoff comes through, even outdoing EA's series in some respects.
    • 81 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    A ton of alternative playing options (two-player versus, puzzles, timed play, and more), and hidden characters to unlock, so the game never gets boring.
    • 53 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Unfortunately, this title just doesn't measure up on the Dreamcast, with a rushed feel when compared to both the PC and PSX versions.
    • 87 Metascore
    • 100 Critic Score
    It's a great representation of how to handle a superhero in video game form, and surpasses other lame efforts like "Superman N64" and "Batman Forever" (remember that crap?).

    Looking for zombie-blasting kicks? Leave this one buried.
    • 42 Metascore

    Not bad, but certainly not the best vehicle driving game out there.
    • 88 Metascore
    • 90 Critic Score
    It soon becomes a tedious exercise in reversals and grappling, but until you master your technique to that point, it's a great game.
    • 84 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    It's not a perfect simulation of driving in the same way Sega's own "Ferrari F355 Challenge" is, but it's close -- and with a lot more cars and races to choose from.

    Simply the best Star Trek ship game on any console system right now, it's a good thing that Activision took the time and care to give the Trek fans an experience worth waiting for.
    • 91 Metascore
    • 90 Critic Score
    This is a game you'll probably keep coming back to periodically even as the years progress -- its simplicity and charm will likely ensure it a lasting place in your game library.
    • 74 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    It's hardly on par with a game like "Falcon 4.0," but you'll find it a rewarding, if shallow, experience.

    • 70 Critic Score
    ITF is still a better game.
    • 57 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    The QB Club controls...still suffer from occasional glitches, and graphics that, though detailed, are so small you have to squint to make sure you're running the right play.
    • 87 Metascore
    • 90 Critic Score
    You either love it because you loved the first one, or would rather play something more traditional in the fighting genre.

    Madden takes the trophy again this year, with "GameDay" closing the gap by a little.

    D2
    The game is over way too quickly, even if you do have the patience to sit through the endless conversations.
    • 69 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Uneven pacing, clunky interface and mismatched visuals undermine the game's potential.

    If survival horror games went out clubbing together, Countdown Vampires would be the one getting asked, "So, who's your friend?"
    • 72 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    It's a lot of fun if you weren't expecting much.
    • 94 Metascore
    • 100 Critic Score
    Simply, one of the best RPG's ever made, and one of the finest games for the PlayStation console.
