    Madden NFL 08
    From the completely lackluster presentation to the utterly uninteresting modes, Madden NFL 08 is a great game for a very short time.

    FIFA Soccer 2004
    If they had spent a tenth of the effort they made on their graphics and presentation on the gameplay instead, would we have a game that was comparable to the "Winning Eleven" series?

    Major League Baseball 2K5
    The multiple bugs and lack of multiple fielding camera angles hurt this game severely and simply can't be forgiven. [*Note: original score posted by Operation Sports as 3/5 = 60. Current score on their redesigned site is inaccurate.]

    Mario Golf: Toadstool Tour
    It's the perfect game to enjoy with kids, the wife, or friends who may not be into golf while still giving you that golf fix you need.

    SSX On Tour
    It's technically excellent, and really only suffers in comparison to its strong legacy. [*Note: original score posted by Operation Sports as 3/5 = 60. Current score on their redesigned site is inaccurate.]

    College Hoops 2K8
    For all of the additions and enhancements that this season brought, the core gameplay has too many little issues to call it an improvement over last season.

    Madden NFL 07
    The major issue plaguing Madden 07 is this: at it's most basic, there is no fatigue whatsoever. After the excellent implementation of fatigue in "NCAA Football 07," it's a mystery why this fundamental aspect of football is absent from the pro version.

    FIFA Soccer 06
    It is inexcusable to omit adding intelligent substitution and foul AI.

    NBA Live 06
    Games for this kind of system are supposed to be fun, simple and not terribly time-consuming. Viewed in this light, NBA Live 06 is a success, but real hoops fans will undoubtedly spend more of their gaming time on more fleshed-out console titles, and keep Live around as a quick artificially-basketball-flavored snack for their PSP.

    NHL 07
    While I’d still like to see more options on and off the ice, such as being able to increase the playing time by individual minutes rather than increments of five, the series appears to finally be heading in the right direction.

    NBA Live 06
    Out of the box, the game is an unrealistic dunkfest, but after some slider changes, the game resembles the NBA.

    Tiger Woods PGA Tour 07
    I can, without a doubt, say that the more people you have huddled around the PS2, the more fun you’ll have.

    NHL 06
    The title is sure to horrify the hardcore, while providing hours and hours of fun for those who are looking for more action and less strategy. [*Note: original score posted by Operation Sports as 3/5 = 60. Current score on their redesigned site is inaccurate.]

    Major League Baseball 2K7
    To say it’s an improvement over last year’s 360 release may be the understatement of the century. However, with all that has improved, there is a lot of room to do more.

    Knockout Kings 2003
    I think I might be in the minority thinking this game is an absolute mountain of canine fecal matter... just another quick hit to get a gamer’s $50 on a new console that doesn’t have any competition for it.

    NASCAR Heat 2002
    It's the same old song with a new background tune.
    • 78 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Blitz: The League
    Blitz: The League has the potential to become the "Burnout" of football, a game that takes big risks and blazes a path for a legion of imitators.

    NFL Street 2
    There's just not enough meat in NFL Street 2 to provide a complete single-player experience.

    Geoff Crammond's Grand Prix 4
    I can’t think of one thing that will bring me back to it for my F1 fix.

    All-Star Baseball 2002
    Gameplay is a definite mixed bag but I think there is more good than bad, and it's a great game, if you can get past the quirky bugs.

    ESPN MLS ExtraTime
    The best thing to do would be to take the ExtraTime stadiums, scenarios mode and gameplay and merge it with FIFA's incredible play by play and graphics.

    NCAA March Madness 06
    With a few slider tweaks, March Madness 06 plays a darn good game of basketball. The major issues are off-the-court bugs and features that should have been included.

    WWE WrestleMania XIX
    Better, if for no other reason but the improved game mechanics. If they had made those improvements alone and left out the "Revenge" mode, I probably would score the game higher. However, the fact that they invested time, effort, and money into this mode forces me to push their score down.

    Burnout Dominator
    I think newbies to the franchise will dig it. Unfortunately for the Burnout vets out there, Burnout Dominator will leave you with a half-finished feel because of the omission of Crash mode and online play.

    MVP 07 NCAA Baseball
    MVP 07 NCAA Baseball plays a solid game of baseball...One can't help but be underwhelmed.

    NFL Blitz 20-02
    This game is for the long multiplayer sessions with friends looking for something less challenging game than your standard simulation.

    Total Extreme Wrestling 2004
    While the challenge of the game is strong and the replay is huge, the ability to draw in a non-wrestling gamer is not here. This game is only for the hardcore wrestling fans.
    • 76 Metascore
    • 71 Critic Score
    V-Rally 3
    V-Rally 3 features all of the gameplay modes and options you could ever ask for, but unfortunately they just didn’t pull off the driving model very well.
    • 76 Metascore
    • 74 Critic Score
    NBA Live 2002
    It doesn't matter who's on the boards but the ball always seems to go to the nearest offensive player.
    • 75 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    NHL 2005
    Fans of the ‘sport’ of hockey are going to be frustrated by the extreme emphasis of arcade gameplay. So frustrated they are going to wonder when Midway’s next title will be coming out to get the true arcade hockey video game. Those who are looking for a more simulation based hockey experience also better look elsewhere.
