    Most importantly, "Ground Control" doesn't let itself get weighed down with useless options and nerd-pleasing, making this a RTS almost anyone can enjoy.

    Steeped in style, sleight in substance, and superior in overall satisfaction.

    The fully three dimensional landscapes are stunning, and animation is equally so - units move around the area with superlative realism, and weaponry is as full of life as a piece of machinery can be.

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

    This is the best rally racing game on the Dreamcast, with good graphics, great control and physics, and a ton of options to add to the game's longevity.

    Absolute magic for veterans, still won't raise an eyebrow for the uninitiated.

    It's more evolutionary than revolutionary, really.

    Great graphics, excellent sound, solid control, and lots of replayability. Eons of fun!

    It's a great game with a historical significance that can't be ignored, and an action-packed reason to hang on to your PlayStation.

    The only real criticism of this game is that it's an old title that we've seen in the home before. Still, though, this is a fantastic port, and the addition of net play adds a whole new dimension.

    Takes the game in a new, and sometimes hilarious, direction. Revenge is a dish best served cold - we served it colder than others, but we still ate heartily.

    Merely a good game that feels a bit old hat.

    Shooter fans take note, this is one of the best of its kind on the machine, especially when connected to the Expansion Pak. Time Turok and roll…

    A fantastic racer with great control and a large number of tracks and cars to choose from. Add in the multiplayer mode, and this is a game you really cannot afford to miss.

    Relying too much on its past as other more advanced games pass it by, the series is fast becoming one for diehard fans only.

    It’s like playing with Hot Wheels when you’ve grown up with Matchbox racers. Variety aside, there’s not much in the way of style.

    We take off an extra half point for the high overall difficulty of the game, rendering it all but impossible to play for anyone but the most seasoned war simulation veterans. On the other hand, it is incredibly realistic.

    It may be a bit heavy on the micro-management, but if you’re at all interested in the God game genre, you’ll be hooked on this game for a long time.

    As good as "Tomb Raider 1" was, 2 is twice as good!

    Imagine it this way – it's as if you're playing Tony Hawk in a minefield, and you'll lose your points if you tap a mine.

    Whereas last year the controls seem looser than Madden’s, and therefore more intuitive and fun, this year they seem way too easy.

    Hot Shots Golf 3 takes the game into a whole hilarious new direction - but the realism it loses may hinder real golf fans.

    If you're a FIFA newbie and own nothing but a PSX, FIFA 2001 is by far the best soccer sim out there.

    Rogue Squadron is right up there with the other great N64 space shooters such as "Star Fox 64" and...um...well, buy it anyway. Great stuff.

    If you were looking for the ultimate NASCAR game, you’ve found it.

    Once again the AI needs tuning and the graphics need optimizing. Otherwise, though, this game is still as fun on the PS2 as it is on the PSX, and with the new range of customization options, you're sure to find a gameplay style you like.

    If you bought last year's version of FIFA, you basically already own this game.

    This game rivals Tony Hawk for the Advance, and takes better advantage of the engine than the poorly tuned Mat Hoffman.

    With all of these super cool additions, not to mention the fun-as-Swiss-cheese-in-a-can four player mode, this is the best "Blitz" so far.

    It’s wickedly fast, good-looking, and mean – it’s the muscle car of corridor shooters. But where’s the online support?
