    This game just ends up being a very mediocre FPS with the name “Robotech” slapped onto it. The controls are so-so, the voice acting is horrible and the music is very basic.

    Just one of the most hilarious games I have played in a long time.

    The new Konquest mode is ok but nothing major. And I do wish the controls weren't so unforgiving sometimes. It's still Mortal Kombat though, and that's totally ok with me.

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

    This game is so boring and annoying that I can’t force myself to play it anymore. Now I’m not going to say this is one of the worst games of the year (I think "Lords of the Realm III" deserves that honor), but as soon as this review is over I’m not going to play it anymore.

    It’s a Myst game any fan should play or to see how the story family turns out.

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

    Now RTS's are generally a little slow for me, but Evil Genius has a few elements that you have to control simultaneously, so you won't have to sit and wait long for something to build or develop.

    While casual gamers may be put off by its complex political focus, sim and history buffs will love the accuracy this game portrays of medieval politics.

    The General Lee's controls are really rough. I don't think I have played a driving game that handles this poorly. It's so loose that sometimes it's outright hard to control.

    It has the great gameplay from the original, a new story more, and still looks great. But yanking out the big online feature that made me jump for joy, I can't give the game the same score.

    The gameplay is improved a good deal from last year, giving you more of a realistic feel while maintaining a fast-paced arcadey kind of feel. The fight has been taken right to the competition, and EA might just be catching up in the Basketball department.

    The Xbox Live will keep you happy for a very long time. There are some issues with the Xbox controller. Maybe I just have fat fingers, but I think it is best if you use a larger Arcade controller.

    You can really never go wrong with Colin McRae Racing, and now with online gameplay it's even better. Now if we can just find out what actually happened to Colin!

    All I can say is WOW! This game is amazing! Shadow Hearts: Covenant is in my opinion one of the best RPG to hit the scene this year.

    It's not groundbreaking, but it doesn't have to be. Kids don't care about that. They care about having fun playing it, and I think that is where Activision has succeeded here.

    Just all over the board in terms of gameplay, graphics and sound. One minute you will enjoy it and the next you will be wondering what you miss because you are stuck and cant get to the next level.

    Without a doubt the best in the series to date. If you love the franchise this game buy is a no-brainer.

    The action-RPG element really gave Raven Soft the ability to expand on the characters and give you more control than you've ever had with them.

    Once you figure it out and get rolling you'll find a fun romp. It's also extremely kid friendly, which is something parents will like to hear.

    The storyline is everything you'd expect from a game by Free Radical, as is the look. The gameplay is also very solid, although one of these days someone is going to have to learn how to make some really good enemy AI.
