    MLB 07: The Show plays a fantastically realistic and remarkably fun game on the field - in fact, it's perhaps the best on-field baseball game ever created, and certainly the best one this year.

    While Tiger Woods himself continues to reach new heights in his golf game, the Tiger Woods PGA Tour franchise also made noticeable improvements in the last year.

    With the depth of the legacy mode, the replay value is huge.

    My plea to VC: Please don't revert back to last year's game. The game is a few steps away from being a great game. Just fix the bugs.

    The pinball running, even if you can circumvent it much of the time with the Y button, as well as the aging game engine knock this game 10% for me right away.

    The lack of a true Franchise mode is still noticeable, but aside from the disappointing frame-rate issue and exceedingly long loading times, there's a lot to like here.

    If you have great group of online buddies or real-world friends who are on Xbox Live, this game is the next best thing to the Friday night poker-fest in your pal's basement.

    I think that the "major" issue with Major League Baseball 2K5 World Series Edition is that it's too much of the same. There aren't enough changes in this game to justify a whole new game, or to justify a purchase from someone who owns the earlier version.

    The EA team made their off-season adjustments and released a solid product. Maybe not groundbreaking or innovative, but certainly a step forward.

    The Xbox 360 version of Tony Hawk's American Wasteland is - despite the only-modest improvements - the best version of the game available on any system, and can be recommended as such.

    It might be time for EA to let the Burnout field lie fallow for a year or two, before one of the most exciting titles of the current generation becomes a tired has-been in the next generation.

    If you are a Franchise Freak I think you would want to check this game out.

    It’s a game I think I should like, but have no desire to play it and when I am playing I am usually hoping it will be over soon.

    This game really needs to be SEEN in ACTION to fully appreciate what an outstanding effort EA put forth in this game.

    I enjoyed playing the game but the re-playability with only one player is limited, unless you really like the challenge of unlocking teams and stadiums.

    It’s a fun game to pick up and play, and it plays great online, but in the end; by not doing the little things right on the field, and by lacking depth off the field compared to it’s competition, I just don’t see myself spending an extended period of time playing this game.

    I love the draft idea and the impact that a GM can have on the finances of the team. However, the unrealistic simulated stats are a huge roadblock right now, but all that repairing that requires is some tweaking by the programming team.

    It just doesn't have enough variety to satisfy the offline gamer.

    The Gameplay reminded me more of a charity All-Star game than an actual NBA game.

    If I felt like I had more control over stopping the pass, I would probably rate Gameday 2003 higher.

    The game play is very solid. The game is very fluid as you make a string of passes to the left and right to get over the try line for a "try". The kicking game is also very well done...If you are not knowledgeable about Rugby, do not buy this game!!!

    With all of the features and fun that Slugfest has, the game has a problem with longevity. After you have unlocked all of the extras there really isn’t much else to play for.

    There is not really anything groundbreaking here, but the element it provides does the sport justice and brings an entertaining time to the gamer. However, the lack of seeing anything new affects the amount of time you'll spend.

    Outlaw Golf is a golf game that relies too heavily on gimmicks and forgets about simple things that should be standard in a golf game (simulation or arcade) like the lie affecting the ball.

    While a fun and frantic racing game it doesn't scream out innovative and fresh.

    If the developers can put as much emphasis on gameplay as they do in the franchise mode, this series might actually become something noteworthy.

    If you are outside the U.S. and have access to "Winning Eleven" or "Pro Evolution Soccer" this game isn’t going to impress you.

    While this game is incredibly deep in a lot of areas, it falls just short in delivering an addictive must have snowboarding title.

    The things they did well, were recreating a football atmosphere with a hard-hitting, fast paced game. I don’t think they are far off; they need to come up with a challenging level of play, more animations and a completely revamped recruiting system.

    Not as deep as "Out of the Park," but some people might like a more simple game. If you are looking to sim a bunch of seasons a night and not worry about drafts and other little things, then Baseball Mogul is for you.
