    Midway and Pitbull Syndicate missed a golden opportunity to really give "Burnout Revenge" a run for it's money, knowing what I know about the series. But instead, this game goes after "Midnight Club." And it does it without online gameplay, which I can't figure out at all.

    Crappy computer AI, and a very "vanilla" Create-A-Wrestler mode just doesn't put this in the same category as Smackdown, Raw, or Wrestlemania.

    This is a rental title, plain and simple.

    If you are looking for a game to play for a few minutes when you get home from work to blow off some steam without asking you to think or work to hard, then this might just be a game for you. However, if you want a game that will push your skills to the limit, then you will quickly get bored with this game.

    Critical Hour just isn't going to get much playtime from me anymore. It's fine to rent for a weekend, but you're doing yourself better by getting an Xbox 360 and playing "Ghost Recon Advanced Warfighter" in wait for "Rainbow Six: Vegas."

    The music, controls, combat and environments all feel like they are straight out of my SNES, simply updated with a few nice touches added on for fun. Basically this game was put together well, and they stayed true to their design core.

    This is an old school style RPG, those of you that enjoyed the old styles should grab a copy of this game. Those out there that enjoy overhead fast RPG’s should also give this game a shot.

    There's not enough nudity to satisfy fans of the magazine, and there's not enough depth of gameplay to satisfy sim-gamers. Really the only people who might get into Playboy: The Mansion are Playboy historians, and even they won't find a whole lot of reasons to keep playing.

    One thing that I was kind of disappointed about with King Arthur is the fact that it goes by too damn quick. You basically hack and slash your enemies until the end, and that is pretty much what the game comes down too; hacking and slashing.

    But the potential of a great movie-to-game translation is marred by sub-standard controls dictated by a lack of 3rd person perspective.

    Features some very good arcade-style gameplay that will somewhat take you back to the start of the videogame era, the days when you could play a arcade game for .25 cent, the days when you thought games like "Pac-Man" and "Pong" kicked ass.

    A mixed bag of gaming goods and bads. The game is a basic platform. And it really does not seem to add anything new to a somewhat saturated platform gaming market.

    I was pretty disappointed in the Playstation 2 port because it just did not seem right. The graphics could not match the Xbox version and the controls felt a tab better on the Xbox controller.

    Not a bad fighting game. The game looks pretty nice with cool familiar backdrop levels and the characters look like the cartoon characters. It just seems clunky to play at times.

    The lack of anything truly innovative, and the so-so gameplay doesn’t offer any incentive to want to play the game for an extended period of time. I was not having fun with the game at all.

    It is not a bad RPG, and the tanks customization and combat add a nice touch of fun, but I would not classify this as a must have title for RPG fans.

    The problem is that you get thrown into the game with very little to work with. That would be fine if using the weapons weren't so freaking hard to do. Collision detection was not a big thought in this game, or at least it seemed to be an afterthought.

    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.

    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.

    Yu-Gi-Oh! offers a very good sense of strategy that beginners and novice Yu-Gi-Oh! players will enjoy.

    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.

    This game is simply sub-par to it's Xbox counterpart, and I would really like to hear from anyone who plays both games and disagrees with me.

    American SK8Land doesn't quite capture the magic of its console brethren.
