    Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six: Lockdown
    The graphics seem to be a step backwards in the franchise but as I have said before, the PEC mode is the saving grace of this game.

    MotoGP 3: Ultimate Racing Technology
    A great racing title that offers a different playing experience compared to the four wheeled variety which most gamers are probably used to.
    • 51 Metascore
    • 55 Critic Score
    187 Ride or Die
    The driving and shooting is something different yet the repetitive nature of the game, lack of true variety or tactics with the weapons means that the game soon becomes old.

    Big Mutha Truckers 2
    An interesting and unusual concept that surprisingly works, within the confines of itself. The major problem I have with the title is its size and general lack of ambition. Basically you go from one place to another and repeat which does become boring after extended play.
    • 84 Metascore
    • 75 Critic Score
    The Incredible Hulk: Ultimate Destruction
    A must for true Hulk fans as it captures the spirit of this green beast to perfection, BUT the game play as mentioned before it repetitive and short lived if you are just going to play the main missions.
    • 51 Metascore
    • 75 Critic Score
    Beat Down
    The RPG free roaming nature of the game is great and actually reminded me a little of the Tobal games from times past.
    • 75 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Darkwatch
    No nonsense, to the point, no "brainer" gaming that not only looks good but works well.
    • 84 Metascore
    • 85 Critic Score
    Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon 2 Summit Strike
    Smooth graphics, smooth control, great sound and plenty of modes means that Summit Strike is well worth the price of entry for all you serious and perhaps non serious military gamers.
    • 61 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Delta Force: Black Hawk Down
    As it stands you have a hit and miss campaign which yes, is very Hollywood and fairly engaging but on the other hand can be rather lacklustre at times.
    • 66 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Outlaw Tennis
    The characters are wacky and funny, the game play smooth (although doing specials seemed fiddly) and really there isn't much to complain about.
    • 71 Metascore
    • 75 Critic Score
    FlatOut
    Featuring 45 tracks in one of 16 fully upgradeable cars FlatOut offers a great fun racer combined with the car tuning although this is not as extensive as say "Forza Motorsport."
    • 80 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Sid Meier's Pirates!
    The game does feel like a collection of mini games at times and can get a little repetitive as you repeat tasks over and over. However at the end of the day there is a lot of fun to be had here as you go about your pirating career.
    • 62 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Fantastic 4
    Not so fantastic and a game that I would say is disappointing considering the possibilities of the characters.
    • 78 Metascore
    • 85 Critic Score
    Conker: Live & Reloaded
    Graphically superb with a great story and very funny to play.
    • 76 Metascore
    • 75 Critic Score
    Destroy All Humans!
    I guess it boils down to how fun you think it is to toss cows at unsuspecting people!
    • 65 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Batman Begins
    The game felt a little like a cheaper more linear version of splinter cell with none of the style and with some hand to hand combat and plat forming moments thrown in for good measure.
    • 72 Metascore
    • 75 Critic Score
    Medal of Honor: European Assault
    Yes the action is thick and fast and very cinematic yet the lack of subtlety and arcade elements really stop this game from being a true MOH game in my opinion.
    • 93 Metascore
    • 90 Critic Score
    Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas
    I like San Andreas as it offers so much to mess around with on an unprecedented level.
    • 70 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Still Life
    With plenty of spooky atmosphere and a gripping tale Still Life is an intriguing prospect although I can really only suggest a rental at best.
    • 68 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Advent Rising
    Sits just above average.
    • 61 Metascore
    • 75 Critic Score
    Star Wars Episode III: Revenge of the Sith
    It's another film license gone to waste.
    • 70 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Pariah
    If you are not grabbed in the first hour or so of play then maybe it's not for you.
    • 92 Metascore
    • 90 Critic Score
    Forza Motorsport
    The first ever true driving simulation to arrive on the Xbox console has achieved the highest standards in terms of graphics, sound, realism and playability.
    • 46 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Predator: Concrete Jungle
    Sadly the graphics are what lets the game down and to non fans will appear to be a basic no frills run of the mill game.
    • 72 Metascore
    • 85 Critic Score
    Area 51
    An interesting, atmospheric, engaging and most importantly fun to play shooter despite being a little mindless at times.
    • 50 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    Stolen
    Below average and somewhat unpolished when compared to other games in the genre.
    • 71 Metascore
    • 75 Critic Score
    Raze's Hell
    Raze's Hell is a fun but short-lived experience. While its story mode can be entertaining at times, it soon becomes repetitive as it's all shooting and killing.
    • 88 Metascore
    • 90 Critic Score
    Psychonauts
    The puzzle element is intriguing the way it has been implemented into the game and the general all out wackiness of the characters and story surely sets it apart from its peers.
    • 56 Metascore
    • 75 Critic Score
    WWE WrestleMania 21
    I think despite the shortcomings with this title it does a good job of providing some entertainment and fun and at the end of the day this is what counts.
    • 85 Metascore
    • 90 Critic Score
    Unreal Championship 2: The Liandri Conflict
    With all of the added single player goodness of a Story Mode, Tournaments, Challenges, the new/classic game types, and the inclusion of Xbox Live play (which is a rule for Unreal) Unreal Championship 2 has the highest replay value of any 2005 release yet, and every minute, online or off, is just damn fun.
