    There may be those who will find Pool Paradise’s strange setting and overall eccentric nature in conflict with what they would consider a realistic or acceptable pool game experience. However, for those who don’t mind a bit of zaniness mixed in with their billiards fun, Pool Paradise is worth a look.

    The gameplay is highly addictive and includes some nice, new tricks; however, the game leaves you wanting more than is provided, and the lack of a multiplayer really hurts the replay value.

    My experience with Age of Mythology was one of apathy and boredom... Think of AoM as Led Zeppelin’s "Stairway to Heaven." Sure, it’s a great song, but do you really want to hear it over and over again?

    An amazing story that many will enjoy - if you have the patience to sit through the lengthy conversations.

    Not the kind of innovative game as its forbearer, Incoming. Instead, it comes across as a bit behind the times. While it does manage to be fun in parts, it still lacks in many areas.

    A fun little game that slowly unfolds an adventurous epic. Bring on the third installment!

    Though dated, Stronghold Crusader is a worthy addition to any RTS fan's library.

    The cuddly interface and ride creations are aimed at the casual gamer. The fuzzy bear feel of the game would probably make the hardcore gamers do what my little sim customers do on my rides, vomit.

    Clunky island controls and gameplay darken what is otherwise an extremely enjoyable action RPG that truly shines during its high seas adventures.

    Disappointing. Not for newbies or those looking to jump into established worlds.

    Recreates its real-life counterpart quite well and offers a welcome alternative to the normal racing game.

    Ground Control II isn’t going to redefine the genre, but it’s a solid entry with a few interesting tweaks and innovations, making it good enough for any gamer looking for a fast-paced, story-driven, real-time strategy title.

    CivCity Rome could’ve been a great game. It is the culmination of a lot of minor problems that ultimately bring down this empire. All of these issues, however, are easily fixable.

    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.

    Not legendary by any means, this game is a good one to pass the time with. It's intense action should draw you in, even if the less than stellar graphics and the subpar production values do not.

    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.

    It’s hard to know which is worse; the interface or the AI. Both combine to spoil the latest Master of Orion title.
    • 61 Metascore
    • 74 Critic Score
    Great for old-school action fans. Repetitive and dull for everyone else.
    • 65 Metascore
    • 74 Critic Score
    While it's good for a quick game, in the long term you must ask yourself, "How much fun is it to place objects and watch people?"

    Goes a long way in making EverQuest accessible to casual RTS fans. Hardcore fans on the other hand could find the game to be too simple, and focused on too small a scale. Creation of units is slow, and mines run out often, so if you don’t mind expanding your force for most of the mission you will find an entertaining game in Lords of Everquest.

    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.

    A fine game with no glaring flaws, but also offers nothing to really rev up a gamer's engines either.
    • 56 Metascore

    Sadly, it’s attempts at being challenging only contribute to make the game less accessible to players.

    Caters to hardcore puzzle gamers. It’s a well-produced puzzle/adventure game, albeit with a weak story, but newbies to the genre should definitely know what they’re getting into.

    Not a terrible game, but far from a good game, DarkStar One finds itself right in the middle, orbiting the planet mediocre.

    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.
    • 81 Metascore
    • 72 Critic Score
    Adequate, but nothing incredible.
    • 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.

    Moscow to Berlin regains some of its quality with its dramatic cut scenes that set up the plot and objectives for the mission extremely well and its encyclopedia of all units and vehicles allows you to examine unit’s strengths, weaknesses, and purpose.

    The worst crime ever committed against PC gamers was releasing the sequel to UT without an Assault mode.
