A breath of fresh air in the adventure gaming world, well worth playing despite some dodgy camera angles.

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.

It is not the revolution in the space combat genre that many were hoping for, but it certainly is the next evolution.

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.

If you want to play a well-balanced baseball game that mixes stats and simulation with arcade action, this is really your best option.

A fun adventure title with some interesting puzzles. However, the rigid control scheme and lack of in-depth interaction detracts from what could have been a much better game.

A game with much to like, but not enough to enjoy regularly.

An excellent add-on to Crysis that won't fry your PC to a melting pulp.

A more than worthy successor to the mayoral throne, and by far the best in the series, except for slow-down issues.

Despite severe unit pathfinding issues, this expansion is a must buy for anyone who owns the original.

Features some beautiful and complex levels that, while great to look at, do a poor job of covering up some less than exciting gameplay and under utilized weapons and utility selections.

My only real complaint is that upon completion of a task, villagers will just stand around doing nothing. This can lead to some annoying micro-management tactics...Problems aside, Age of Empires is one of the most enjoyable and addictive real-time strategy games I’ve ever played.

Created with one thing in mind - absolute realism, right down to the 150 page manual. A top-notch add-on for "FS2K4."

Has less instant fun than "World of Warcraft," but there is a stronger sense of accomplishment.

High immersion factor; some innovative touches; good multiplayer and the Pacific Theater. If you're a fan of WWII era combat flight sims this one is irresistible.

A good, fast-paced strategy game that should appeal to traditional RTS lovers and more impatient gamers alike.

Reality 2.0 is the first Sam & Max episode I would recommend without reservation. I laughed, I cried (with laughter), and I think everyone who plays will do the same.

With a fabulous graphics engine, deep character development and excellent additions to come in the months ahead, AC2 sets a new standard.

If you're hunting for the ultimate flight sim or learning tool then look no further.

This is the biggest, baddest, most fun, large-scale, first person, military, online, action-oriented shooter available. Whew, that was a lot of adjectives. It is more fun and addicting than "BF42."

It's essentially Scrabble for the videogame generation, with mundane numerical scores replaced by hitpoints and flashy animated attacks, wrapped up in a cute and funny package. You'd have to be a serious logophobe not to love it.

Taking a plunge into this mystery may leave you bobbing for more Nancy Drew games.

Adequate, but nothing incredible.

Some people won't take to the fact you can only play humans and that there are no orcs or goblins to bash.

There is nothing terribly new or original here, but this still offers a very solid RTS experience.

It's short, sweet, and funny. Strong Bad humor at it's finest.

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.

The current king of hard-core flight sims has just ascended the throne.
