    It's a game that will reward those that spend the time with it properly rather than rush through.
    • 54 Metascore
    • 55 Critic Score
    The game has none of the style or effectiveness of other similar games and as I've said several times in this review, the whole thing smells of generic.

    A welcome arcade street racing title with enough bits and pieces to mess around with to keep the pimp in us all quite happy.
    • 53 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    Very basic, very average and a little fun in small doses.
    • 66 Metascore
    • 65 Critic Score
    With none of the finesse displayed in the "Silent Hill" games and lacking in general atmosphere from the "Resident Evils" of this world, Obscure is a rental at best which is a shame as the developers could have been a little more imaginative and put some more meat into the game.

    I think the worst flaw as far as the AI is concerned was the fact that the reaction time of your unit at times was extremely sluggish.

    The animation and quirkiness of the characters is superb and brings a whole new dimension seeing them in Lego form.
    • 88 Metascore
    • 90 Critic Score
    Whilst the game play isn't as complex as other first person shooters as it's simply a case of kill or be killed in the mindless sense (but would you have it any other way), the fact remains that Doom 3 is an engaging, scary and highly entertaining title.
    • 94 Metascore
    • 95 Critic Score
    I am truly amazed at how this game can interest nearly all types of gamers with the ability to play Chaos Theory either by stealth or action.
    • 51 Metascore
    • 40 Critic Score
    A poor attempt to be controversial from the magazine adverts featuring busty women to the drug taking/selling in the game.
    • 60 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    However the length of the game is increased by the furiously frustrating trial and error game play and super accurate guards on occasion.
    • 83 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    If you are looking for a wide variety of single and multiplayer game types then I would say that this game is well worth a look.
    • 81 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    An unusually un-hyped game, which is surprising because although being a little strange and different from the norm is actually a fun and well polished title.
    • 71 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    A short game and might make some players feel sea sick. The lack of a map does prolong the experience for perhaps the wrong reasons and the camera angles take a little getting used to.
    • 88 Metascore
    • 85 Critic Score
    A "thinking mans" shooter.
    • 78 Metascore
    • 85 Critic Score
    The graphics and audio are excellent with a superb interface for you to control your squad but the main game is fairly short.
    • 88 Metascore
    • 85 Critic Score
    This is the best boxing game on any system ever. It is not perfect and has not got the options and scenarios of the "Tiger Woods" series has for golfing, but as a stand-alone game it is very good.
    • 73 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    There are huge problems with the consistency of the mission difficulty, the sound that is awful, the flawed story; but after all that Scrapland has just enough going for it to make it enjoyable to play through, although the experience might be slightly frustrating.
    • 79 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    I found Snowblind to be an engaging and highly entertaining title, and as a fan of "Deus Ex" was pleasantly surprised at how they incorporated the features into this simplified spin off version of the game.
    • 79 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    If you are looking for a slice of fighting game history then you won't find a better package than this one.
    • 45 Metascore
    • 40 Critic Score
    The Xbox is not bereft of good racing games, and this one is just plain bad.
    • 60 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    A very average game and one that is for fans of Keanu, the movie or those who are simply bored and looking for a title to rent.
    • 88 Metascore
    • 95 Critic Score
    There is only one word to describe this game – beautiful.
    • 61 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Much like the real Playboy magazine in that it is simply more than a cheap gimmick of pert breasts and tight peachy buttocks.
    • 69 Metascore
    • 75 Critic Score
    The interrogations are unique but do tend to repeat themselves frequently.
    • 86 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Whilst some elements could be considered repetitive the pacing of the game is such that it's great to just pick up and play for while.
    • 81 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    MechAssault 2 sounds pretty damn good as far as simulating a giant robot fight.
    • 78 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    The game is very fast and fun.
    • 45 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    I suspect that you would be better off renting the game if you are unsure, as the evidence suggests that you might be a little disappointed with the game once you put your finger prints on it.
    • 86 Metascore
    • 85 Critic Score
    Not as good as the original as far as locations and story is concerned but better in other areas such as character development and combat.
