    There is just enough of a story for Resident Evil fans to play the game and find out new information, but there certainly could have been much more in terms of the story.

    An awesome and unique racing game with truly blazzing speed.

    The quirkiness of the game, along with its innovative premise, promises a pleasant time to be had by all the family.

    The concept for the game is wholly imaginative, and I can't think of any game out there with a similar type of control to it.

    I’m not sure why it wasn’t a little harder to beat in the end though. There are many goodies to unlock and keep you busy for a while, but it all depends on how much you like puzzle games.

    This is a clear example of a shoddy port to a terrific game. No one would stand up to these misgivings on any other title, but for some reason you can forgive Hitman 2. At moments things just get so bad, and the distractions become too much.

    Everything is nearly identical to what you played in Sands of Time, and in the case of combat, the bar has been raised. With a much more even balance of fighting and foot work, PoP fans should be pleased.

    You can't help but fall in love with the little critters. Nintendogs is entertaining, innovative, and packs quite a bit of staying power thanks to all the great unlockables in the game. Believe me, when you get it, you'll fall in love with this incredible, complex game and the little furry pal that goes with it. [JPN Import]

    A fast paced platforming action game. With the ability to play five playable characters and having different paths in each level, the ideal amount of replay value is added to the game.

    A great platformer but can be beaten fairly quickly.

    This game has personality, detail, and polish that very few games can even come close to.

    The A.I. in the game varies and can either be a push over or incredibly hard. The races will be very close if you are in the top position.

    Sadly I must say even the gameplay is starting to be outdated, yet it is still by many standards one of the best formulas for a videogame on the market today.

    It plays like an absolute dream. Sometimes I forgot I was playing on my GBA.

    If you are a fan of the series you will eat this one up because it’s not a port. Instead, it’s a good original game of the Mega Man saga that will take you ten to twenty hours to beat. However, it will definitely frustrate those who are not good at games or someone that does not like hard games.

    The Two Towers the movie absolutely blew my mind. I sat in awe throughout most of the movie. EA has managed to recreate that feeling with their game. There truly is a feeling of being in the middle of an epic adventure, up against insurmountable odds, and yet pulling it off.

    Overall this game is easily the best RPG on the Nintendo 64. It lives up to the greatness of the original and actually surpasses it.

    While the game isn't nearly as perfected and amazing as "Ocarina of Time," it still provides Nintendo fans with an epic and excellent experience.

    The game itself is extremely short and can be beat in less than two hours or so; however, unlocking all the features and playing all five characters adds to the replay value.

    There's only a few things that keep Ninja Five-O from being a perfect game: one save file, tiny graphics, and most importantly, the lack of a connection to "Hawaii Five-O."

    Its simplistic, but addictive gameplay will have you playing long after everything is unlocked. Despite a missed opportunity for multiplayer, Wario Ware Touched! beautifully shows off the potential of the Nintendo DS.

    Even though Duke Nukem turned heel and became more of a world hero instead of solo killer, this game still has the same good fun that you would expect from a Duke Nukem game but without the bathroom jokes and strippers.

    Playing NFL Street made me re-realize why I hated "Madden" so much. Arcade football is just more fun, plain and simple. And, on top of that, it offers quite the extensive one player mode that will keep players busy for months.

    While it can get repetitive at times, Trauma Center is an incredibly fun and unique game experience that offers some of the fastest paced stylus action out there.

    When it comes to sports games, nothing can really beat "Tiger Woods" in the realism department, but nothing can really beat Mario Golf: Toadstool Tour in the fun department.

    A very engaging experience packed with fun and interesting characters and puzzles that really make you think.

    It’s one of best top-down racers we have ever seen... I love the mixing of 2D and 3D graphics seen here.

    The extreme fun will end with a short trek but you'll get true gaming bliss during the process.

    I’m torn here because Donkey Kong ’94 is one of my favorite games of all time, and Mario vs. Donkey Kong just isn’t as good.

    It even has the odd delay time that occurs when you beat someone. I like that, because it gives you a grace period where you can kick the crap out of your opponent a little more before he falls to the floor.
