    When all is said and done, the most important thing that can be said about FlatOut 2 is that it is fun.

    The new content is useless, the lack of Internet play is disappointing, and the load times are excruciating ... but this is one of the rare exceptions in gaming where the port is better than the original.

    EA Sports Big has once again delivered the big air, big stunts, big hits, and big competition we have come to know and love them for.

    The effective loss of the "First Touch" control due to it's placement on the D-pad is a major blow to this game, and the frustration is only exacerbated by the graphic hiccups and long load times.

    Madden, Sega, and Fever fanboys need not apply. Blitz is Blitz! And it is fun.

    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!!!

    I’m sorry to say but FIFA World Cup 2002 is game to catch consumers when they get cup fever rather a game to provide the ultimate World Cup experience.

    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 was like playing a toned down version of last year’s Blitz game with 11 players and 10 yards for a first down. Same playbooks, same style of play, same moves and a turbo button.

    If you are a baseball fan and don’t mind the lack of graphics or the fact that you can't control your team’s every move, this is a must-buy.

    It’s the best game of soccer available on the “next-gen” console and one of the best soccer titles to date.

    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.

    While the Challenge mode is a nice addition and the Ultimate Team card game in pretty innovative to the genre, I’m not convinced enough has changed since the FIFA 07 release to justify the $59.99 price tag. For Champions League fans, it’s a no-brainer at any price.

    No matter what anyone tells you, Inside Drive 2003 is NOT the same game as last year. With the addition of sliders, how can you honestly say it's the same game??

    Tony Hawk’s Proving Ground does it again. The team at Neversoft has taken a great game and improved it like we’ve seen time and time before.

    With no true multiplayer mode, online or offline, it's hard to suggest Amped 3 as anything more than a rental.

    When it comes down to it, Need for Speed Pro Street is a racing game that’s focus is entirely on one thing: racing. There are no cute little stories or “other” things to do.

    I think that they have, and not only have they finally gotten a button mashing game on the right track, they found a way to present it in a fashion where the player can not only enjoy the game, but have you coming back for more in the long run.

    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.

    What is my biggest complaint with NASCAR 07? Simply put, if you've played "NASCAR 06: Total Team Control," you will likely be bored with NASCAR 07.

    It's fun and clever blended-arcade approach to the sport worked for me, and the variations in game play are welcome.

    Online play adds so much more than the original, as well a lot of other improvements. The average look of the games graphics and audio does weigh a little bit on the gamer, but for the price, why argue?

    There's no delicate way to put it - this game is ugly. I feel awful saying so, but I've got to come clean - it looks like a first-generation PS2 game, not a game released for a four-month old system.

    It's a solid enough effort, but it doesn't really feel fresh at all, online play doesn't work, and its appeal seems limited to only a certain number of Champions League fans - preferably ones who don't already have FIFA 07 - and that doesn't seem likely to comprise a large number of gamers.

    The problem is that EA’s "NCAA Football 2003" is a MUCH better game then NCAA2k3. EA’s game makes 2k3 pale in comparison.

    If you are the type of person who cares more about gameplay and is looking for a sim-like basketball experience, run out and get this game as soon as possible. No game comes closer to replicating the on the court action of the NBA.

    Unfortunately, NHL 2K8 made a decision to make a change that, to many people, undid all the good that they had done in other areas.

    Major League Baseball 2K6 is chock full of issues. For every good thing that I found, I found three things that hurt the game. If this is their best effort, it's not good enough. Gamers deserve better.

    Tiger Woods PGA Tour has gone from a throwaway golf-like substance on a disc to a surprisingly challenging and fun simulation with loads of promise for the future.

    Since the features are pretty much identical to the current-gen versions of the games, I find it hard to suggest that someone pay 30 dollars more for what surmounts to a graphical upgrade.
