    It follows the story line and the characters from the comic well, and does a great job of capturing the overall mood of the series, but the gameplay itself doesn't have the right attitude.

    The biggest problem is that there is no online gameplay. And for the more experienced and hardcore adult gamer, this game will get boring very quick[ly].

    It's certainly not a realistic bowling game by any stretch, but it is fun and with up to four players it not bad to have to whip out at a party or if you just want to throw a few games. Good job.

    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.

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

    The reason I am giving Spider-Man 2 an average score is because of the shabby 3D graphics and the fact that the controls can get shabby from time to time and leaving you very frustrated.

    For those who aren’t familiar with the series, you won’t find anything here that will knock you over. Without understanding how good the other games were, you won’t have the context to see this one as anything but a sub-par WWII game.

    The decent graphics, fun soundtrack and addictive egg collecting make this a game worth a play if you are a fan of the Pokémon franchise and the action-platform genre.

    While there are quite a few lacking elements, there are just as many innovative extras to make up for it. Decent game play and a good presentation make this a title worth a look.

    Is it the next "DDR?" No. Will a 13 year old girl love this game? Yeah, I think so.

    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.

    More selectable wrestlers really could have boosted the replay value. Still, with its great graphics, solid grappling system and AWESOME Create a Wrestler mode, WrestleMania XIX shows that its franchise is on the right track.

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

    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.

    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.
    • 50 Metascore

    The biggest problem with this game is, once again, that it really doesn’t offer anything to set it apart.

    If you love Corvettes, check this game out, you can't lose. If you don't then pass this title on by. The bottom line is that Corvette is a mediocre racing game with a great price.

    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.

    It's ok for a secondary Football game if you have friends over, or want to go online occasionally. But as a single player game, or something you play leagues with on the PS2, I think this is the year Blitz doesn't quite fit in. And I love Midway, so this is a very difficult thing to say.

    The levels, though beter designed this time around, still aren’t interesting enough to enjoy playing through.

    I think the game modes are lacking, and the fighter creator is very rudimentary. But the controls and gameplay are still as good as they used to be.

    The voice acting, graphics, use of IP (Intellectual Property), and special effects are all very nice...its too bad other things in the game distract me from truly enjoying this title.

    I appreciate that they expanded the tricks, and added some real players to the mix. And the new Gamebreaker is nice. But overall the trick controls are just as difficult, if not more, than the first game. And not having online gameplay is a big big big issue for me.

    Gameplay has always been the staple of a good Soccer game, and when playing against the computer, FIFA '06 just doesn't have it like "FIFA 2005" did.

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

    What happens when a game does all of the little things right, but doesn't deliver much in the gameplay department? That's exactly what happened with Cars.

    Gretzky NHL 2005 has taken a giant step forward from previous "FaceOff" games, but it is still falls way short of the competition. With two solid hockey titles already out, Gretzky just doesn't offer anything different to make it worth a purchase.
