    NeverDead rocks with the music and the visuals can be a treat but beyond that, it's not much fun. There are just too many problems that hinder one's enjoyment, and those problems are critical because they translate to faultless deaths.

    Deadliest Catch: Sea of Chaos has a few good ideas and takes a decent stab at producing a fishing RTS of a certain kind. But controlling the boat sucks, the mini-games aren't exactly engrossing, and the total lack of intensity drags the entire experience down.

    A buggy, unfinished and uninspired game.
    • 55 Metascore
    • 48 Critic Score
    Racing games are supposed to be games of skill, not chance. Sonic Riders, despite all of its shortcuts and power-up items, feels like a game of chance. What's more, it's also a real pain in the ass to play.
    • 54 Metascore

    It's broken, it's brief, and it'll only make you wonder "what if" every time you play it.
    • 56 Metascore
    • 48 Critic Score
    This is the epitome a game that was quickly thrown together with the most basic and juvenile concepts videogaming has.
    • 60 Metascore
    • 48 Critic Score
    Without a sense of direction or a goal, you never feel as if you’re working towards something, and the entire quest almost seems arbitrary.
    • 44 Metascore
    • 47 Critic Score
    If you desperately want to try something new and are willing to put up with a totally disappointing production, maybe you'll want this when it drops down to a budget price.

    I did expect lackluster technical aspects, but I also expected a fun, bouncy little adventure. Instead, I got nothing like that, so I ended up with a concept that didn’t fit the spirit of Garfield, and while the controls and design should be commended to a point, the rest is just too boring and flawed to bother with.

    A very poorly done game, that suffers from uninspired gameplay, poor track design, redundancy, and innovation. Furthermore, gamers who enjoy a decent looking title will find that MX vs. ATV Untamed is one of the worst visual offenders out there on the PlayStation 2, as it features an absurd lack of texture detail and a never ending supply of ugly.

    G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra fails to deliver the goods on any conceivable level, and it’s simply because the production is mediocre in terms of both technicals and gameplay.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 46 Critic Score
    The game suffers from a decided lack of control, the fixed camera should’ve been completely reformatted, the environments are unappealing, the story isn’t worth following, and the gameplay as a whole falters big time.
    • 43 Metascore
    • 46 Critic Score
    Seriously though, how important are these extras if the game itself is so mind-numbingly underdeveloped?
    • 43 Metascore
    • 46 Critic Score
    If you're willing to withstand the constant onslaught of glaring issues regarding the control, you might be able to revel in some of those aforementioned highlights, but it won't last. In the end, you'll find yourself wishing for the good ol' 16-bit days.
    • 52 Metascore
    • 46 Critic Score
    Having varying objectives that may change at a moment’s notice add a little flavor to this very bland dish, but it’s not enough to save it.
    • 49 Metascore
    • 46 Critic Score
    It's accessible and sort of amusing for a little while, but the instant you realize the single-player element is extremely short and ultimately disappointing, you might regret the purchase.

    Slow, and stupid. Fielders will inexplicably hold onto the ball before moving to throw it, which in turn causes a whole lot of infield hits.
    • 61 Metascore
    • 45 Critic Score
    Cars Race-O-Rama takes a good concept and fails to implement it properly. The idea comes up well short due to erratic and somewhat unreliable physics, an overly bland atmosphere, a sense of definite repetitiveness, and a lack of mechanical upgrades that could’ve made the experience richer.
    • 47 Metascore
    • 45 Critic Score
    This is the epitome a game that was quickly thrown together with the most basic and juvenile concepts videogaming has.

    From Russia With Love is a perfect example of how not to port a game from the PS2 to PSP. It does absolutely nothing new and a host of things much worse.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 45 Critic Score
    So in the end, there are plenty of great games out there, and without any doubt, this definitely isn't one of them.
    • 51 Metascore
    • 45 Critic Score
    Incredibly disappointing. Even if you were to find three friends with PSP’s and copies of the game, you could only play four games, which is a complete joke.

    If it isn't obvious by now, I'll make it painfully obvious here...this is a terrible game with no redeemable merits. Championship Paintball 2009 offers absolutely nothing in terms of fun or a rewarding experience. It is one of the most monotone, hollow gaming experiences available and you're better off putting your gaming money elsewhere.
    • 51 Metascore

    I can’t take any more, this game is awful.
    • 45 Metascore
    • 44 Critic Score
    No one element is good and the final product is a mish-mash of half-realized concepts and ideas. It's too bad, really.

    Nobody wanted to love DNF more than me but I just couldn't get any enjoyment out of it.
    • 56 Metascore
    • 44 Critic Score
    Nothing more than an awful game, with horrific visuals, arguably the worst framerate this generation has seen, poor audio, and cookie-cutter gameplay that'll bore you to tears. As a torture device, Blacksite works extremely well, so if you're into masochism, this'll do the trick.
    • 48 Metascore
    • 43 Critic Score
    Looks like a great idea on paper, but it fails to be even mildly entertaining past the first hour of play. There’s no excuse for the game’s camera, and the long load times and slow pacing are just icing on the cake.
    • 50 Metascore
    • 43 Critic Score
    G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra certainly looks and even plays a little better on the next-gen systems, but this PS2 version should be avoided at all costs. There’s very little in the way of redeeming qualities, and just about every aspect of this production has its fair share of problems. There’s no need to elaborate further; just stay away.
