    The controls are perfect for a hockey game while also only being as difficult as you want them to be.

    It is just a basic old school shooter. The graphics are decent at best and you are basically getting what you paid for.

    Probably the biggest flaw of this Story Mode is that it only lasts a year. Once you go to Wrestlemania and win the World Title (which you are required to do), the game ends.

    The gameplay is tight and solid.

    Graphics are not very great though, and coming from Sega I was very disappointed. Also I wish that you could have been able to do more as well in terms of gameplay.

    The camera in Astro Boy is absolutely inexcusable. Although you can manipulate the view using the L2 and R2 buttons (which you will be doing a lot), you find yourself looking straight into little Astro’s gigantic eyes again before you know it.

    If you put it up against almost any GBA game released this year, Astro knocks 'em flat.

    It's a middle of the road 3rd person shooter lost in a rather large genre. It has some small control and camera issues, but those can be overcome. But I can't overcome the feeling of disinterest I have playing the game.

    And a $30 game and no battery backup in sight, what is with this? It is just not fun to play. I found myself bored after about five minutes.

    In addition to all of the different defensive moves that you can make, EA Sports has improved the defensive A.I. The defensive is much more aggressive, and they really go after the ball. Some of the stupid mistakes that the A.I. has made in the past have been cut.

    The two new multiplayer games alone are worth trading in the first Rainbow Six 3.

    Doom 3 ignores all of the "rare" and "true find" tags and fills any void you might have had for having the piss scared out of you.

    A marvelous example of great graphics and sound bundled with a great storyline.

    I am sorry, I love Electronic Arts, but this game is really bad. The graphics are pretty decent, but it can’t save this game from its horrible controls.

    I have found almost NOTHING wrong or flawed in NFL 2K5. It is what I would consider right now the perfect Football game. It is a must have game.

    Another Climax masterpiece.

    The controls remind me of what "Tomb Raider" would be if it were strung out on crack. I think I can honestly say that I hate the controls in this game.

    The single player mode of SCPT is just as good as the Playstation 2, and some ways between that and the Xbox version.

    The passing game is out of whack. There are way too many dropped passes. The offensive line's blocking on running plays is horrendous at times. I felt it neccessary to go back and change the score [from 98], so it wouldn't so misleading to our readers.

    There are some things I would have liked to have seen, like using the DDR pad for the whole game, and absolutely no online play. We're in a big online push, and I think this could have been a big thing for this game. But still, it's a solid job.

    I have only one other recommendation for Konami. Either port the game on the Xbox or make the next PS2 version usable with the PS2 HDD and broadband adapter. It would be killer to be able to download new songs to keep things fresh.

    The GameCube finally has a kick-ass RPG that they can call their own. I am simply blown away by Tales of Symphonia. The graphics are beautiful, the music is awesome, the voices are top-notch and the game play is to die for.

    My bottom line is, there needs to be more content and more challenge. Good ideas are in this game, but the actual racing totally stinks.
    • 77 Metascore
    • 75 Critic Score
    It’s complexity will turn many gamers far, far away, but to those with the dedication to play a solid game that will last them hours, this one is for you.

    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.

    • 79 Critic Score
    The RPG elements do add more to the title. I was starting to get tired of the same old card duel on the Game Boy Advance, now you can have a nice little story to go along with the duels.
    • 80 Metascore
    • 90 Critic Score
    What I think is the most significant about the game is that it takes the movie's story, but it doesn't deviate from the gameplay that makes Spider-Man so fun. And this time it's very open ended.
