    Ask yourself if battling through hundreds of combats, most of which require no strategy other than kill the other guy first, sounds like fun.

    The worst crime ever committed against PC gamers was releasing the sequel to UT without an Assault mode.
    • 84 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    A game with much to like, but not enough to enjoy regularly.

    Nightfall doesn’t really bring anything new game mechanic wise to the Guild Wars franchise, but it does offer some beautiful environments and cultural inventiveness to an otherwise bland fantasy genre.
    • 83 Metascore
    • 69 Critic Score
    The new additions lack enough substance to make Zero Hour worth the investment for those who weren’t sold on the original.

    If you have played the original Fable and still own an xbox, I would recommend waiting for the xbox release of The Lost Chapters. If you have not played Fable and won’t be disappointed by the relatively short time required to beat the game, then buy it.

    Adequate, but nothing incredible.

    It’s good to see Sam & Max back in action, but the fun is over all too quickly. Let’s hope the plot improves in the next episode.

    It's still not quite good enough to recommend purchasing individual episodes, but the season package is starting to look pretty tempting. Make sure your system is well above the minimum requirements for maximum pleasure.
    • 79 Metascore

    It’s as brief and easy as the previous episode, but overall it’s more palatable.
    • 79 Metascore

    A great way to add new travel options to your existing Sim City 4 infrastructure, with a somewhat gimmicky U-Drive-It mode.

    For "Giants" veterans, don't expect too much from A&D, as it isn't half as special as its precursor, but I would recommend playing it if only for the fantastic cutscenes.
    • 78 Metascore

    A disappointment. Not as good as the original. This is a series that has definitely lost something from its Interplay roots.
    • 77 Metascore

    The best of its genre, which isn't saying a lot to be honest, but it will definitely appeal if this is the kind of thing you enjoy. Unfortunately, Enigma's niche appeal doesn't make it a particularly attractive proposition to anyone else.

    An interesting arcade/simulation mix that is restrained from greatness by a few integral inadequacies. There has never been such a fine line between enjoyment and annoyance. Only consider playing it if you have a decent wheel.

    Great for a weekend of Star Wars geekery with a bunch of friends, offering solid fun for the first four or five hours. After that, well, to impersonate Yoda: whether or not to own it you will want, only the future will tell.

    In the end Rush for Berlin is a less entertaining version of Codename: Panzers that looks a bit better and has a few moments of intense combat but mostly comes up short in this department.
    • 75 Metascore
    • 71 Critic Score
    Despite my initial aversion, this game turned out to be quite entertaining, if not revolutionary in any way. A must have for C&C fans, and a lot of fun for FPS players.

    The switch to 3D was a welcome addition, but one saddled with camera and control issues.
    • 75 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Good if you’re methodical and like to play your games in short bursts. Not for twitch gamers or those who play to relax; it’s a surprisingly stressful experience!
    • 75 Metascore

    There may be an audience for this game made up of hardcore fans of the point and click genre, but it’s not anything that the majority of us can’t live without.

    If you like the WW2 shooters and prefer the stealth and sniper aspects then this game is for you. Want something revolutionary? Then keep looking.
    • 74 Metascore
    • 71 Critic Score
    A very good tactical simulator that will appeal to all players, at all levels.
    • 74 Metascore
    • 58 Critic Score
    This episode has the shortest playtime and smallest laughs-per-dollar-spent ratio, and it cribs many elements from the previous episodes. Only worth playing if the following episodes improve greatly.

    • 61 Critic Score
    Despite some improvements, the series has clearly fallen behind the competition.
    • 73 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    This game gets a low rating because it is basically the same game as last year. To top it all off, there is less content in the PC version than the other versions.

    I don't see anyone anticipate a co-worker saying, "man, I wish 5pm would hurry up and get here. I want to get home and play Secrets of the Ark" in the near future. But I can see the adventure fans finding something of value buried in there somewhere with Mary of Magdalene.

    The gameplay just doesn't have the excitement it could have without the lenient physics model.

    Crusader Kings has a lot of potential: the underlying historical model is a gem. However, when all is said and done, games need to be playable: and there’s some way to go here.
    • 72 Metascore

    With varied missions, nice visuals, and an awesome musical score Commandos 3 is a game you very much want to enjoy, but in the end there are too many issues to keep you from fully feeling satisfied.
