If you are into more fast paced puzzled, even though this game has a clock there is little rush with most of the maps (thank god, cause I would be screaming at Mr. Esc to move faster than the crawling pace he moves around at).

In the end, Rugby '06 is what I think real Rugby players will gravitate to. It's authentic, and that is always something EA is good at.

I was glad to see so many different modes, but the only two that were really worthwhile were Story and Memories. Add that to the shoddy graphics and terrible music, and you have a below average game.

After how big a fan I was of Tales of Symphonia I was really hoping for more.

While the game doesn’t contain all the bells and whistles of its NFL counterparts, the game makes up for it in gameplay.

A game that has no rival in the Soccer world. It's better than FIFA, and it's even better than FIFA Soccer for the Xbox 360.

As for Torino 2006, I would look in the bargain bin for "International Winter Sports 2002" instead.

I love this game. It's one of those games that when you just don't want to play anything else, or your tired of the racing and sports games, this is something you can turn to that is fun yet challenging. And playing online is a blast.

The game itself is pretty decent, but it doesn't pack the punch of an MLB license.

I am not usually one to judge a game based on its graphics, but it is unforgivable to have a game look this bad so late in the Xbox's life cycle.

[Control] has to be the worst part of the game.

Ape Escape isn’t a graphically impressive game, it more than makes up for it in its gameplay. You will have a blast trying to catch the hundreds of monkeys in the game, and you will really enjoy some of the solid platform gaming that Ape Escape 3 provides.

You won't even believe how nearly identical the game is to it's PS2 counterpart. If ever there was the "perfect port", this is very close to what you'll get.

It keeps the classic feel, but has enough new gameplay to make it solid. And it's the first real console-based Gauntlet game ever, which adds a new element to the 4 player co-op play that was a cornerstone of the series.

This collection has more classic titles than many other collections I have seen, but more importantly, it has more good old school games than I have seen in any other game collection.

Pinball Hall of Fame is a nice throwback to an old and dying arcade game.

I'm addicted to the gameplay.

I can honestly say that Burnout Legends is the best "real" racing game that I’ve played on the DS.

The voice acting is spectacular.

The game does little to add to the original title.

The voice acting is spectacular.

A surprisingly solid game.

A good, solid foundation was laid to make this a good portable fighter, but there wasn’t enough to back it up.

I like this game better on the Xbox 360 than I do the PC. It's the difference between having the Xbox 360 and just putting the game in and playing worry-free, or having someone email me to tell me I really should upgrade my video card if I REALLY want to get the game to run at a decent framerate.

It's mostly as an online game, which I have been enjoying quite a bit. Unfortunately, in order to unlock cars and tracks, I have to run through a somewhat boring single player game. I say boring because it's too easy.

It's not the controls or the FPS feel that started to get me into the game. It's the variation of the missions and your specific goals that make PDZ so interesting and addicting.

Both online and offline, this is my frontrunner for Game of the Year until something else shows me otherwise.

When all is said and done, there is really only one word to describe this game- boring. Very, very boring. At the risk of being to harsh, this game seems like nothing more than an attempt to cash in on ignorant shoppers (mostly parents) who are looking for Nintendogs, and see this as a less expensive alternative.

It suffers because of its story. All of the twists and turns and never knowing what is really going on detracts from all of the cool moves and action the game provides.

There is not a whole lot of good things I can say about the storyline in this game. Frankly I just wanted the characters to stop talking so I could try and enjoy the game.

If you’re a fan of Neopets you will like this game.

A great break from the standard FPS, combining gadgets, thinking, searching and good old fashioned combat. This is a great game.

It's one thing to be the same game and just blow you away with presentation or little tweaks to the gameplay. It's another to just be the same game. On it's merits, Tony Hawk American Wasteland is a great skateboarding game. But it is not really a next-gen game, and that's a shame.

Project Gotham 3 is the best overall racing game I've seen. Pretty much my final answer!

It doesn't have the same level of "wow" factor that NBA 2K6 has.

It isn't a short game to beat, but after you're done there's no online play to make you go back to it. Still, a solid game.

I can't think of a single good reason to play NBA Live, especially over 2K's "NBA 2K6." I'm sorry guys, I really am. But I can't.

Not quite the next-generation game I was hoping for... But the World Cup mode is still very strong, and there is Xbox Live, which is always a good thing.

But yes, the graphics are better...insanely better. Better to a point that you should trade in your Xbox version to get this if you're getting an Xbox 360.

Having only a single player mode for a game like this doesn't help the cause either. So Amped 3 ends up being pretty good, but not great.

The Xbox 360 version is where the biggest jump should have been, but fell a bit short. In fact, even in 720p/1080i High Definition, there only thing you gain over the Xbox and PS2 games is the clarity of the in-game textures. And clarity isn't strong enough a word! Borderline photo-realistic is probably a better word to use.

There are some things missing from the game. No pre-season camps, a very basic Franchise mode, and the fact that you can't do small and meaningful things like challenge a play on the field! That I still don't get.

The cut-scenes add a nice touch to the storyline, and the nearly limitless number of enemy bugs; matched with their hard armor and aggressive behavior defiantly keep the game, if nothing else, interesting.

One of my favorite games of the year. Great graphics, storyline, characters, gameplay, controls and polish, this is simply a fantastic title. I have not been this addicted to a Dragon Warrior (Quest) game since the original on the NES.

The return of the police is an excellent addition to the game, too bad that they are not available for online play.

I have to be honest, in order of what I would prefer to do with this story, I would choose to read the book again, then watch the movie, follow far behind by playing this game.

Wow, I don’t think I have ever be thrown through a wall and wound up in empty space in a console game in a LONG time.

My other major complaint about the game is with the difficulty levels. The difficulty levels are fairly lopsided, Easy is too easy for someone who has played any other dance games, Medium is a huge jump up from it, and I was really not ready for it, then there is the hard setting which is just crazy.

My only complaint would be that I would have liked more songs that I recognized and more dance/techno music.

If the movie delivers as well as the DS version of the game did, I’ll be a very happy camper.

The best DS game to date. It is like having the best from every Mario Kart game and bundled into one great package.

The best Smackdown game I've played.

The Chronicles of Narnia is an excellent game for the kids. The controls and gameplay are simple, and there is enough variety in the gameplay that will keep things moving along.

Being such a huge fan of X2, I was very disappointed in X3. If you can get past the controls and storyline then this is can be a awesome game for you, its just too bad these parts are so bad.

If you want to play some great classic arcade games, this is your game.

The visual presentation will suck in fans of the show, and the story should placate anyone who follows KP’s adventures. However, due to the lack of replay value, I’d advise those fans to either rent the game, or wait until the price comes down.

Great controls, fun storyline, an addictive game that you just can’t stop playing and top it all with fantastic movie creation and viewing and you have one top notch game that is hard to pass up.

It makes really nice use of the DS features, both in the story mode and the mini-games, and shows you exactly what the system was intended to do.

What it does lack is a good multiplayer element. That makes the game seem "done" once you beat it. It isn't a short game to beat, but after you're done there's no online play to make you go back to it.

I cannot recommend this game to anyone.

Would-be singers will as always love this game, and it's a must have if you are collecting the series.

I loved playing the game--it’s scary as hell. The graphics, gameplay, presentation, and sound are decent and they work very well together.

This game is simply trying to cash into the Lord of the Rings franchise, so lets be smart enough and not fall for that old trick, just walk on buy this one on the store shelves.

Sure, the story mode and graphics are almost identical to the DS, but the DS features are what really made the game stand out, and they are understandably missing here.

A sad excuse for a clone of the decent PC shooter that bares the same name that came out long before this title.

Basically you have to sit through a lot of meaningless running around and little fights in order to get to the good stuff once you've gotten past the first castle.

An enjoyable gaming experience even though it is a rather short one. The easy difficulty takes away from some of the enjoyment of the game.

This is without a doubt the best Star Wars game ever created.

The graphic engine and framerate really fail the gameplay engine, which had some very nice controller setup.

The younger generation will probably enjoy this one, but anyone who remembers Rocksteady and Bebop shouldn’t even bother.

I would put Call of Duty 2: Big Red One below "Brothers in Arms: Earned in Blood," but above "Battlefield 2: Modern Combat."

What detracts from the game are the reoccurring enemies, ease of the game throughout most of the missions and the intelligence of the enemies.

If you're above the age of 13, you may find this game extremely boring, and somewhat lackluster. It's got the makings of a fun-filled 3D fighting game, but it just unfortunately doesn't deliver like it should.

Even though the game is comprised of only five mini-games, it provides enough changes of pace for an age group with a shorter attention span.

If you are looking for an epic battle game that takes place in the ancient world, go get yourself a copy of "Rome Total War," if you want an awesome battle game where you are one soldier against many foes then go get yourself a copy of "God of War."

The only redeeming value this game has going for it is its affordable price tag, under 20 bucks, however that does not excuse a poor game.

Personally, I would have preferred they left out the new modes and added online play. The new modes were poorly executed, and online play would have made a great game even better.

You must have this game. This is the front-runner right now for Game of the Year as far as I am concerned.

I might get chastised for giving such a high score on the first game I’ve reviewed since coming back to Next Level Gaming, but this is one that everyone simply must play.

In the end this game delivers what you would expect, a collection of classic titles from the days of yore. For the decent price of the title it’s not a bad little collection.
