    The horrible shot controls simply aren't saved by a good presentation and online play.

    There comes a time when you should just move on. I think Tom Clancy games and the Playstation 2 should go ahead and part ways. The system just isn't powerful enough to do what I think UbiSoft really wants to do with their games.

    The game is not horrible, but there is nothing really awesome to overcome the games bad parts.

    If Cy Girls had stronger gameplay to support the story, or a more compelling story to support the "backtrack and wander aimlessly" puzzle solving, Konami may have had a sleeper hit.

    I did not like "Kingdom Under Fire" and I do not like this game either. I still have hope that someone will make a good hack n’ slash game for the Xbox 360, but this is not it.

    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.

    So much potential, so little in execution.

    A sad excuse for a clone of the decent PC shooter that bares the same name that came out long before this title.
    • 68 Metascore
    • 56 Critic Score
    But the execution just totally destroyed all the good things this came could have been. Saying the game was almost devoid of gameplay might be a harsh statement, but when I turn off a game and say to myself “I have had enough”, and vow never to play it again, then harsh is a reality.

    They still do not have a fun game, but simply a collection of features… maybe the next time around they will have a fun game… one can always hope.

    Until the next Shrek movie comes out (or we're treated to "Shrek Swamp Golf"), I'm going to close the story book on Shrek games.

    One of the biggest problems that I found about Yu-Gi-Oh! Dawn of Destiny was the fact that it lacked online play. This fact just downright boggles the mind! Why would you make a game based on a card game, and then slap a $40 price tag on it and NOT have online play?

    The controls and AI in the game are frustrating at best.
    • 43 Metascore

    You can call it sour grapes (for liking the old TMNT, not this new 2005 TMNT cartoon garbage), or you can just call it a very mediocre game.
    • 52 Metascore
    • 55 Critic Score
    Only controlling three characters, no multiplayer of any kind, and reverting to basically a 3rd-person "beat 'em up" is not the way to take this franchise.
    • 43 Metascore

    The boring levels mixed with the poor control scheme suck any fun that the action in the game could provide.

    What can I say, with so many other WWII RTS games out there, and with this one having some serious drawbacks I cannot recommend this title to anyone.

    The concept of the game, the living ships that can morph as the situation changes, if implemented correctly, could have been VERY cool for an RTS game. It’s just too darn bad that the rest of the game fell flat on its face and left the graphics and concept high and dry.

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

    Failed miserably in execution and you will not find me playing this game again because I just don’t think it is very fun to play.

    This game is boring. I will not play this game anymore, and I would have to say that the only people that should be playing it are die hard fans of the TV show. On second thought, I can’t recommend this title for them either.

    There are better puzzle games out there, and games that do not pretend to be something they are not.

    Two things work against Stacked in the end. One, while the computer AI is great, whoever is dealing the cards needs to be looked into by the gaming commission. And it says "Halo With Chips" on the back, which gives the game higher expectations than it should. Being that I am really enjoying playing Texas Hold'em both in video games and in real life, I wanted to like Stacked. Unfortunately there are just too many other Poker games out there that are better, even with less realistic AI.
