Despite its admirable music and noteworthy play control, Pac 3 is too bland for the common gamer to take notice. It's pleasant for a while, but you'll quickly grow tired of it.- Nintendophiles

It would almost be a extraordinary game to play if only it weren't for the game's bouncy difficulty levels, slightly sluggish gameplay when groups of enemies are present and the requirement of all players having separate game cards.- Nintendophiles

On paper, Narnia could have been so much more, but the predictable and often annoying gameplay mechanics, combined with unpolished presentations and weak sound effects take away from the overall experience.- Nintendophiles

A short game. It has its flaws, but it can be an enjoyable title, if only for a little while, and the price is a little cheaper than other titles coming out this holiday season.- Nintendophiles

A must for hardcore Mario buffs, as well as those GameCube owners dying to get on the Dance Dance bandwagon.- Nintendophiles

If you can't sit down with three other friends, don't bother, but I'll tell you right now this kicks the pants out of "Mario Kart: Double Dash!!" - yes, you heard me.- Nintendophiles

A fun game that's worth a play through but is brought down by a lack of variety in the game play.- Nintendophiles

It's a youthful and entertaining way to fill some time; I happily played through it while doing laundry the other day and found that time just flew by.- Nintendophiles

A great experience for a niche crowd, but you'll just have to figure out for yourself whether or not you're part of that niche.- Nintendophiles

Donkey Konga 2's main mode Street Performance is just as fun as the original's, even though it has no good music what-so-ever (well, not counting the REM songs).- Nintendophiles

It's too frustrating for an eleven year old and too mindless for anyone older, so it's hard to tell exactly who this game is for or even why it was made in the first place.- Nintendophiles

If you’re a fan of brain teasers, then the game’s 100 puzzles are definitely worth the price of admission (even though it is a little steep). If, on the other hand, you tend to enjoy the more traditional puzzle games that involve making falling objects disappear, you might want to skip Polarium.- Nintendophiles

Combine the lack of utilization of the DS’ unique capabilities and any improvements over the original with sloppy graphics, horrid controls, and a dreadful save feature, and the Rayman name begins a steady decline into mediocrity with this title.- Nintendophiles

Feels too much like the average cart racer. And the fact that you take hold of a plane rather then a cart is entertaining, but still doesn't feel any different, and has just as many boundries (and some odd ones at that).- Nintendophiles

A mildly amusing game that half-heartedly struggles to maintain the feel of its predecessor while still maintaining an air of uniqueness. It'll definitely serve to entertain, though those who haven't played the original game may be a little lost.- Nintendophiles

It just doesn't feel like the same series we've come to know, and follows the traits of similar action games of today, rather then the simple style to that of our yester years. It has its fair share of problems sure, but still remains fun.- Nintendophiles

While the graphics (or lack thereof) may be a turn off, solid gameplay and storylines free from excessive details help keep Dawn of Souls from derailing like so many RPGs out there today.- Nintendophiles

To be blunt, if you played this game to death on the Super Nintendo, there really is no convincing reason to revisit it on the GBA. The bonus levels don't give it enough of a rationale to verify a purchase. With no multiplayer and literally no replay value, you'll be done with this game within a day if you try.- Nintendophiles

Not enough work was put in to the GCN version, which only helps to hinder a game that is ultimately mediocre in its execution anyway.- Nintendophiles

Climax Studios restricted themselves too much by maintaining this old style though; gorgeous environments fall short of their potential and elements to enhance gameplay were intentionally left out, and yet with more of a negative result than their exclusion from original games back in the day.- Nintendophiles

The hit or miss of long-range weapons is a back breaker, especially in the single player against a computer opponent that knows how to judge everything perfectly.- Nintendophiles

It’s not the worst game I’ve ever played in my life; in fact, it’s fairly decent, but it’s just so disappointing. Like all Nintendo gamers, I had high hopes for this game and we got a totally half-assed game.- Nintendophiles

It can be fun, quick, breathtaking, and all sorts of great things. However, the bad control problems pop up too often, and just ruin the entire experience. It comes down to five or ten minutes of great gameplay ruined by the game not working where and when it should.- Nintendophiles

Little variety in the gameplay coupled with a mere four hour timespan would probably make Max Payne a bad idea for a purchase, but if you can find it cheap, it's decent fun.- Nintendophiles

The game isn’t fun to play, which is the only really glaring problem with it...It needs more polished mechanics, enhanced physics, and overall better ideas.- Nintendophiles

It's the same thing that has been on a couple of different consoles. If you only played the original Code: Veronica, the only thing that X offers you is some new storyline elements and a few extra cut-scenes. However, if you've never played this game before, you should really give it a shot.- Nintendophiles

Decent as a virtual pet game, but anyone over the age of seven will get bored fast so matter how much they enjoy Pokemon.- Nintendophiles

Seems like a step back for the franchise. XG3 had a weapon system based on powerups that were bought, XGRA is sort of random. The tracks don't entice the way XG3's did either.- Nintendophiles

Even with less than average graphics the basic gameplay wasn't too hard and it would prove easy for kids to get into playing as Bugs and Daffy.- Nintendophiles

The graphics system works, not too well, but every level is playable and enjoyable if it weren’t for having to start over completely after each life.- Nintendophiles
