    This is a solid game, nice graphics, great controls, but most importantly, immersive engaging gameplay that makes you forget to sleep and eat.

    The Lead Blocking adds an all new dimension to the game, the Superstar mode lets you live the life of a NFL player, and the countless number of options and features add up to hours upon hours of enjoyment.

    Ace Combat 5 adds a little, takes a little, but still ends up being the best in it's class. A top notch movie-like story helps that along, as well as a eye-melting graphic engine.

    More characters? Check. New and better storyline? Check. Updates in gameplay? Well, half-check. Online play? Check, check, and MATE. Thank you Activision! You have finally given X-Men fans the game they were really waiting for!

    The most impressive feature of Everything or Nothing has to be the visuals. The game makes gamers feel like they are in the middle of James Bond movie while providing top notch graphics.

    It is as good as the previous game, and then some with the enhancements that were made. Most notably, in the computer AI that puts up so much more of a fight than even the best FPS games.

    Solid graphics with a consistent feel, one of the best story presentations I have seen in a game since the original Half-Life, mixed all together with a variety of puzzles and changing environments combine to make a knockout of a title.

    I think it needs a little more oomph on more scenarios and the detail in the graphics. Also, conquering control points over and over gets too repetitive after long play.

    So much better then the last version. And with saying that, the last version was also great. One problem I did find was how hard this game was. You can set the level of difficulty but damn even the easy is tough!

    My honest feeling is that UbiSoft should have made this game downloadable content for current players, or an update pack.

    The presentation is just outstanding. It's just a shame that the gameplay was a little off, and that you couldn't skip the movie cutscenes.

    The reason it falls short of a fantastic expansion is that it does not influence the main single player game as much as I would have liked.

    An awful lot of fun. It's not a fast paced game at all; very methodical in nature. But the strategies you get to employ really give Full Spectrum Warrior it's depth.

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

    If you can get past the lack-luster graphics and the moderately annoying controls then you will be able to really enjoy this title. Do to the somewhat awkward controls I can not say that this game is a “must have”, but I would have to say that if you are looking for a game that is not too heavy or serious then you might want to take a look at this one.

    The best Smackdown game I've played.

    A great game, and it is the best of the Jak series. It is the perfect way to end it all.

    It's got the same magic that The Sands of Time had, and then just slaps you around with how great the new gameplay is. I'm in heaven once again.

    This is a great game, its got a fun story, great humor, an assortment of different traps and challenges to keep you thinking and guessing, and a great graphical experience.

    A decent storyline, lots of NPC interaction, and graphics that you have to see to believe. Anyway, if you are even remotely a fan of FPS games, this is an absolute must have, and one hell of a ride.

    The controls and the gameplay just aren't what they used to be, and this has allowed "NBA Live" to catch up this year.

    Take the great graphics and mix it up with the innovative HUD-less fighting system and solid boxing engine and the result is an excellent boxing game that is at the top of its class.

    The computer AI is not quite as realistic as Konami's game this year, but is still very solid.

    On the GameCube, you can count the number of racing games on your right hand. And with the 480p support for HDTV owners, it's a racer that stands on the more realistic side of the fence across from "Mario Kart."

    The graphics in Tony Hawk’s Underground 2 look so much better then the first THUG.

    I hate to say this after being such a fan of much of Peter’s and the Lionhead Studios work, but once again Fable turns out to be nothing more than a legend.

    But the real star of this 2 disc set is DOA 2 Ultimate, which takes a game that I thought blew away the competition back then, and gives it a hypershot in the arm. It has become by far the best in the DOA series.

    NBA Ballers is beautiful, glamorous, and brings a whole new style of hoops action to the field.
