    The game does revolutionize the genre by bringing it into 3D successfully. It also offers over 150 hours of alternate reality, to help you escape the doldrums of everyday life. In that, the game is a winner.

    Shadowgrounds is a great game that is very fun to play and nice to look at. Players looking for a cheap action packed game or some nostalgia would be well advised to give Shadowgrounds a try.

    The spark might be there, but it doesn’t burn as bright as it has in the past.

    The best game of its genre out right now. A more than acceptable addition to one of the best Diablo-esque games out there today.

    The array of cars and the wide open roadways are wonderful, but there aren't a great deal of things to do with either of them.

    A somewhat disappointing, but fun sequel.

    For those who love strategy but want it more on the go this game is perfect for you.

    More or less a good game with some good concepts. Could be done just a little better but in the most part fun, especially if you’re bored with the same-old same-old murder mystery games.

    It is what it is. Great fun for those breaks between the games you like to play that make you think.

    Though Nightfire does have its problems, it most definitely could have been worse.

    The numerous entertainment options in the downtown area are a real treat, as are the new items and activities.

    Seemingly a clone of The Sims at first glance, The Partners does a good number of things well to distinguish itself.
    • 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.
    • 71 Metascore

    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.

    A fun, engaging experience. If you loved "City of Heroes," you’ll certainly love what Villains adds to the whole experience.

    This quasi-expansion pack/sequel doesn’t really light any fires, but it does play well. Unfortunately, it lacks that compelling reason to continue playing.

    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.

    The new areas, quests, and missions are very well conceived for the most part, and the addition of new NMs, HNMs, and gear is just icing on the cake.

    Manhunt is no kid’s game. Adult players should anticipate an incredible amount of gore and some uncomfortable scenes of violence. Looking beyond that, Manhunt does offer a unique story and some challenging, stealth-based gameplay.

    FSX is a simulator that can be appreciated fully only with tomorrow’s technology.
    • 78 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    A fairly decent third-person action game, only mildly bungled by some not-so-great camera perspectives, long-winded cutscenes, and a tendency to go overboard with the shear number of enemy forces directed at you at once.

    While it mostly succeeds at what it strives to do, the gameplay may be dampened for some by its few short-comings.

    When Nosferatu is at its best, the game is a moody frightfest of first person survival-horror unlike anything on the PC, but when it’s at its worst Nosferatu is a frustrating exercise in dying. Still, for horror fans this can be overlooked, as Nosferatu delivers some great goosebumps.

    If you’re looking for something completely mindless, that gives your reflexes a good workout, give Dr. Blob’s Organism a whirl. If you’re looking for something deeper, look elsewhere.

    Monolith clearly made Extraction Point just for the people who loved the original F.E.A.R. It offers an extension to the game, but not much else falls under the “new” column.

    A decent strategy game with solid gameplay and good graphics being held back by stunningly bad voice-overs and flawed music delivery.
    • 75 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    A very well made game for World War II fans, but a bit too much for the average gamer.
    • 68 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    It is a very good game. It’s just that it doesn’t bring anything revolutionary to the table.

    Despite being more action-oriented than tactical, Vegas does have some memorable moments. But the franchise clearly appears to be shifting away from its traditional audience toward a more action-oriented mass market.

    Perfectly competent chess game featuring online play that beats the heck out of Java based games like those on Pogo and Yahoo.
