    For puzzle adventure fans especially kids this game can't possibly miss. Definitely worth a look if you like mysteries as well.
    • 57 Metascore
    • 40 Critic Score
    A silly and often tedious collection of disconnected and ultimately worthless missions loosely held together by a forgettable storyline and some of the worst voice acting imaginable.
    • 81 Metascore
    • 90 Critic Score
    Eets is one of the few titles I have come across to combine elements of puzzle solving into a uniquely immersive world that can only be described as weird and wonderful.
    • 53 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    American Conquest: Divided Nation is an unattractive RTS game that could have faired better if it had been released a few years ago.
    • 42 Metascore
    • 65 Critic Score
    The great sim that could have been, Game Tycoon is instead a dull entry in a genre that is already overflowing with dull entries.
    • 45 Metascore
    • 21 Critic Score
    This game is the worst puzzle mystery game I have ever played. It wouldn't even make a good science fiction novel.
    • 71 Metascore
    • 90 Critic Score
    At the end of the day, the Euro Force expansion is more than worth the price of admission for the new maps alone.
    • 81 Metascore
    • 82 Critic Score
    An accomplished title. But whether or not it can entertain you depends upon your personal taste in games. Love it or hate it, realism rules this roost.
    • 67 Metascore
    • 83 Critic Score
    A creepy and fun title, fans of the Myst series and with a love of horror will be right at home in this game.
    • 78 Metascore
    • 88 Critic Score
    If you want to turn your Sims 2 game into a business management simulation with more details and customization features than you can shake a stick at, then Open For Business is for you.
    • 86 Metascore
    • 90 Critic Score
    One of the best strategy games I've played recently. The depth of gameplay offered is truly remarkable and the AI is good enough to almost make me forget that there is no multiplayer (almost).
    • 79 Metascore
    • 90 Critic Score
    Third time is the charm for LucasArts as they hit a grand slam with their new Star Wars real-time strategy game.
    • 46 Metascore
    • 48 Critic Score
    Think hard before you consider purchasing this bore-fest.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 56 Critic Score
    The game is a big disappointment, as was Bode Miller's Winter Olympics performance.
    • 65 Metascore
    • 71 Critic Score
    A sim that is not for everybody. A smorgasbord of pleasure for train geeks. The cure for insomnia for the rest of us. Add or subtract 20 points from the score, depending on which camp you fall into.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 73 Critic Score
    Worth a look for fans of casino gaming, but not innovative enough to keep most people interested for very long. The game’s attempts to be “more than a gambling sim” fall somewhat short of the mark.
    • 73 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Perfectly competent chess game featuring online play that beats the heck out of Java based games like those on Pogo and Yahoo.
    • 58 Metascore
    • 40 Critic Score
    80 Days could have been a great take on a classic story if more time and care would have been put into it, but as it currently stands it's very hard to recommend the game to anyone.
    • 52 Metascore
    • 78 Critic Score
    What disappointed me was that a game with such a great story displayed some rather under whelming graphics and tons of load screens, which ultimately end up hurting the material instead of supporting it.
    • 85 Metascore
    • 92 Critic Score
    The great talents at Ubisoft have done it again with this one folks and I don't think this is the last we will hear of the Prince of Persia.
    • 67 Metascore
    • 84 Critic Score
    If nothing else, the combination of squad-based combat with a RTS title makes UFO: Aftershock worth picking up, but the game surpasses its gimmick with solid gameplay.
    • 65 Metascore
    • 55 Critic Score
    A half-baked "Rome: Total War" wannabe that just fails to make the grade.
    • 63 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    A good first effort from Rebelmind Games that is worth every cent of the twenty bucks it will cost you - but not much more.
    • 82 Metascore
    • 82 Critic Score
    Fantastic gameplay variety, and stunning graphics make this a worthwhile investment if you own a high-end PC.
    • 48 Metascore
    • 79 Critic Score
    If only there were a way to make The Sims have a flavor that lasts longer than your average stick of gum. That would be a game worth buying.
    • 84 Metascore
    • 86 Critic Score
    Lionhead Studios creates a fun movie mogul sim, while giving wannabe Spielbergs the chance to make their masterpieces.
    • 66 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    A solid action game, however for the discerning gamer it's not something that really stands up next to it's film and book namesakes.
    • 75 Metascore
    • 65 Critic Score
    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.
    • 82 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    A fun, engaging experience. If you loved "City of Heroes," you’ll certainly love what Villains adds to the whole experience.
    • 68 Metascore
    • 75 Critic Score
    This is an interesting and somewhat fun game, but it will appeal to a rather select audience and not the masses. If it sounds like your cup of tea, it probably is.
    • 86 Metascore
    • 85 Critic Score
    Provides a great single-player experience that immerses the player completely in the experience. If not for the lacking multiplayer, this game would be nearly perfect.
    • 64 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Easy to get into and not overly complicated.
    • 81 Metascore
    • 90 Critic Score
    There is nothing terribly new or original here, but this still offers a very solid RTS experience.
    • 78 Metascore
    • 86 Critic Score
    Better than all previous offerings, an awesome football experience, but still not quite on a par with "Pro Evolution Soccer."
    • 58 Metascore
    • 86 Critic Score
    Diplomacy is a fun game that has finally been made into a fun PC game. Fans of the board game will love it, strategy fans will love it, and casual strategy gamers will enjoy it.
    • 77 Metascore
    • 74 Critic Score
    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.
    • 71 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    With graphics and play modes that live up to what you expect from an EA Sports title, but gameplay that is seriously lacking, NBA Live 06 is mediocre at best.
    • 85 Metascore
    • 87 Critic Score
    New units, a new race, and a new campaign mixed with the winning formula and presentation of Dawn of War makes for a great expansion worthy of the original.
    • 85 Metascore
    • 87 Critic Score
    A breath of fresh air in the adventure gaming world, well worth playing despite some dodgy camera angles.
    • 83 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    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.
    • 80 Metascore
    • 84 Critic Score
    A must buy for all X-Men or RPG fans. Chalk up another home run for Activision 'cause this one's out of the park
    • 68 Metascore
    • 65 Critic Score
    Its beautiful scenery and personable characters will definitely grab the player. However, its immediate lack of challenge and extremely short amount of playtime are definitely hurtful to the overall quality of the game.
    • 76 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    The numerous entertainment options in the downtown area are a real treat, as are the new items and activities.
    • 75 Metascore
    • 87 Critic Score
    An excellent hardcore simulation for the air combat enthusiast, especially one with an appreciation for history.
    • 63 Metascore
    • 76 Critic Score
    I enjoyed Jetfighter 2015 a lot more than I expected I would. It is a combat flight sim, sure, but it is not so high-end and technical that you need a pilot’s license to enjoy the game.
    • 77 Metascore
    • 82 Critic Score
    Worth buying if you don't own a recent hockey game, but no compelling reason to upgrade if you do.
    • 65 Metascore
    • 84 Critic Score
    Loaded with tons of action and realistic war time simulations, SA2 even with its flaws, gives any RTS fan a realistic taste of war.
    • 78 Metascore
    • 79 Critic Score
    Not only does it help train you to play like a pro, but it offers enough features to make it a worthwhile investment for the serious poker player.
    • 80 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Does it offer anything new? No, it really doesn't. But most importantly: Is it fun? Well, yeah- it's a lot of fun that lasts for many hours even if it doesn't feel all that fresh or innovative.
    • 70 Metascore
    • 55 Critic Score
    Unfortunately, this long-awaited sci-fi shooter suffers from sub-par graphics, simply god-awful controls, run of the mill third person shooter gameplay and a dull storyline.
    • 76 Metascore
    • 84 Critic Score
    When totally bug-fixed and modded, LOMAC could stand alone as the preeminent modern jet combat simulation. However, if you install the first patch and can deal with challenging frame rates, LOMAC already rocks.
    • 90 Metascore
    • 92 Critic Score
    The most detailed combat flight simulator on the market.
    • 79 Metascore
    • 77 Critic Score
    Delivers some nice little twists on the theme park genre and is worth picking up if you're a fan of the series.
    • 91 Metascore
    • 90 Critic Score
    If first person shooters are your bag, be sure to peel this banana and taste its sweet bounty.
    • 50 Metascore
    • 64 Critic Score
    A good game for PvP play, but thoroughly underwhelming in all other areas. Not a game worthy of monthly fees.
    • 93 Metascore
    • 90 Critic Score
    A game with atmosphere and style, and should keep anyone busy for months.
    • 77 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Loads of replay value and gameplay that will appeal perhaps a little more to strategy buffs than to casual gamers.
    • 69 Metascore
    • 89 Critic Score
    The next best thing to attending a real world military college.
    • 45 Metascore
    • 40 Critic Score
    Glitches, bugs, missing features and horrible gameplay are all a part of Dungeon Lords. Avoid this one at all costs.
    • 73 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    For those who love strategy but want it more on the go this game is perfect for you.
    • 79 Metascore
    • 95 Critic Score
    Far exceeds the original and establishes itself as a classic of the genre.
    • 71 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    An enjoyable RPG experience with some interesting game play elements provided you can get past the shortcomings.
    • 63 Metascore
    • 25 Critic Score
    Dated visuals, bad voice acting and an impossible control scheme. Best to stick with the original game.
    • 78 Metascore
    • 90 Critic Score
    While it doesn't fix all of the problems Doom 3 had it's still incredibly fun and the hell powers add something new into the mix.
    • 77 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    The perfect rental game: it's short, it's fun, and it's got a great multi-player mode. It is too short and too easy, though, to warrant a purchase.
    • 92 Metascore
    • 95 Critic Score
    A truly great game that all fans need to own, despite some issues in the co-op mode.
    • 69 Metascore
    • 68 Critic Score
    Even if you loved The Matrix, the same may not hold true for this MMORPG. We're over it, and by the looks of it so are they.
    • 82 Metascore
    • 86 Critic Score
    A good, fast-paced strategy game that should appeal to traditional RTS lovers and more impatient gamers alike.
    • 90 Metascore
    • 94 Critic Score
    As it is, Silent Hunter III is easily the best submarine simulation ever made.
    • 74 Metascore
    • 61 Critic Score
    Despite some improvements, the series has clearly fallen behind the competition.
    • 86 Metascore
    • 90 Critic Score
    This is what the comic book craze has been waiting for. It’s an original, interesting game that breaks the bonds of the usual hack-and-slash drudgery.
    • 87 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    An average World War II shooter, with elements of strategy implemented somewhat successfully. However, the game is also available on consoles, and I can't help but think the game would have been so much better had it been developed solely for PC.
    • 69 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    A decent strategy game with solid gameplay and good graphics being held back by stunningly bad voice-overs and flawed music delivery.
    • 70 Metascore
    • 75 Critic Score
    An amazing story that many will enjoy - if you have the patience to sit through the lengthy conversations.
    • 40 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Just remember to keep playing for more than five levels because once you complete a couple of the dream levels you'll be hooked!
    • 85 Metascore
    • 91 Critic Score
    If you want to play a well-balanced baseball game that mixes stats and simulation with arcade action, this is really your best option.
    • 82 Metascore
    • 90 Critic Score
    One of the most detailed non-classified naval simulations available to the public. Definitely has the “Military Channel” wow factor.
    • 85 Metascore
    • 89 Critic Score
    This game almost perfectly caters to both the sim fanatic and the average player.
    • 85 Metascore
    • 81 Critic Score
    there’s nothing new or innovative in this sequel and thus is merely a good RPG. Fans of the original will probably find the story enjoyable but will feel like they are just replaying "KOTOR" with a different story.
    • 62 Metascore
    • 65 Critic Score
    A somewhat decent dog fighting game, yet the slow pace, dull story, and awkward controls bring it down.
    • 44 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Horrible writing, voice acting, graphics, and gameplay combine to make a less than memorable game that should only be purchased by the extremely hardcore strategy gamer.
    • 59 Metascore
    • 53 Critic Score
    Scores marks for trying to take "The Sims" on and adding new elements. Looses them again for bad implementation and general rough finish.
    • 83 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    With incredible flexibility, freedom, and depth, this is a history buffs dream and should not be passed up if you are a fan of the genre.
    • 82 Metascore
    • 95 Critic Score
    If you're hunting for the ultimate flight sim or learning tool then look no further.
    • 90 Metascore
    • 91 Critic Score
    It is technically and artistically sound, not to mention fun. Definitely underrated.
    • 75 Metascore
    • 85 Critic Score
    For fans of the first game, I have only this to say: semi-automatic sniper-rifle stake gun. With more of everything, this is a must own!
    • 69 Metascore
    • 72 Critic Score
    It's not a classic of the genre, but it gets the job done and has outstanding graphics and animation work.
    • 83 Metascore
    • 84 Critic Score
    Not as pure as its prequel, but Warrior Within is still a gritty masterpiece.
    • 73 Metascore
    • 81 Critic Score
    A quaintly pleasant WWII RTS that offers little new but makes up for that deficiency with an incredible passion for subject matter and meticulous accuracy within its remit. Rommel would be proud.
    • 93 Metascore
    • 91 Critic Score
    Despite a rough start and ongoing issues, Blizzard's epic MMORPG is a very fun experience.
    • 96 Metascore
    • 92 Critic Score
    One issue that pops up early is the game's rather inept AI. Enemies just do not have the kind of intelligence or cleverness the first game had. Combine soldiers do little to evade your fire, preferring to just stand there shooting at you.
    • 54 Metascore
    • 69 Critic Score
    A decent game if you dig mystery fiction and have an itch to use forensic tools.
    • 77 Metascore
    • 78 Critic Score
    If you were a fan of the original game you’ll enjoy this expansion, especially if the idea of creating custom missions appeals to you.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 89 Critic Score
    A very good add-on that gives you plenty of missions and fresh content with well thought-out use of the mission editor.
    • 71 Metascore
    • 79 Critic Score
    As long as you treat it like the no-frills budget game that it is, there is plenty to enjoy here.
    • 83 Metascore
    • 90 Critic Score
    Has less instant fun than "World of Warcraft," but there is a stronger sense of accomplishment.
    • 75 Metascore
    • 82 Critic Score
    A great ancient city build strategy game. Despite some design flaws, it's a winner!
    • 62 Metascore
    • 65 Critic Score
    Space fans should use the free trial, and science fiction fans might want to read the story, but paying for the game probably isn’t worth it in the long run.
    • 79 Metascore
    • 90 Critic Score
    A fantastic point-and-click adventure game that both long time fans of the genre and newcomers will enjoy.
    • 71 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    A competent historically based shooter with some unique features and an occasional flash of brilliance, making it one of the few quality Vietnam War FPS to date.
