    FIFA Soccer 2002
    To the poor souls of sports gaming without access to more powerful systems or used copies of last year's edition, "FIFA 2002" is an amusing and deep virtual prelude to the biggest sports tournament in the world.
    • 59 Metascore
    • 73 Critic Score
    Men in Black - The Series: Crashdown
    For a reasonably well-made, cheap, good-looking and great-sounding FPS based on a license ‘inspired’ by the hit motion picture series, this “MIB The Series” game delivers the goods.
    • 80 Metascore
    • 90 Critic Score
    Soul Reaver 2
    It's just this close (fingers a couple of inches apart) to being one of the deepest and best-designed single-player adventure games of all time.
    • 78 Metascore
    • 91 Critic Score
    Dragon Warrior VII
    The story and writing is so strong that I easily forgot about the archaic graphics and even more primitive battle engine.
    • 69 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    MXRider
    It's got control and stunt/trick issues to contend with as well as a disregard for real-life sim physics, but the European flavor of the racing antics in "MX Rider" are definitely worth sampling.
    • 77 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Smuggler's Run 2: Hostile Territory
    It’s a looker that has enough length and new additions to justify a purchase but it misses out from being a top tier game since it’s gameplay is somewhat repetitive.
    • 97 Metascore
    • 100 Critic Score
    Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3
    Freaking amazing!
    • 87 Metascore
    • 81 Critic Score
    Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3
    The magic of the revert comes through despite the graphical flaws.
    • 65 Metascore
    • 86 Critic Score
    Monsters, Inc. Scream Team
    SCEA has pulled this one off by sticking to a formula that works mixed with the greatness of the movie.
    • 81 Metascore
    • 90 Critic Score
    NBA Live 2002
    When it comes to delivering consistent and playable virtual simulations of what goes on in NBA courts across the nation, "Live 2002" for PSOne is 'The One' (sorry Jet Li!).
    • 70 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    NBA Live 2002
    NBA Live 2002 takes a step backwards in our minds with less of a focus on strict, simulation style play and too much emphasis on flashy, easy broad based play.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 47 Critic Score
    Putter Golf
    Its mini-golf courses (trick obstacles and all) and players are so below the 32-bit standards even low-budget titles should aspire to offer.
    • 68 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Batman: Vengeance
    For better or for worse though, "Vengeance" relies on scripted and very linear, boring and predictable encounters with enemies/NPC's to move the game along by fists and kicks rather than thought.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 78 Critic Score
    Pipe Dreams 3D
    If you were one of the diehard puzzle fanatics that were able to master the likes of "Devil Dice" (PSOne) and "Wetrix" (N64, Dreamcast) give "Pipe Dreams 3D" a shot.
    • 61 Metascore
    • 40 Critic Score
    Sunny Garcia Surfing
    Not as offensive or terrible as the rating we've given it might imply.
    • 57 Metascore
    • 40 Critic Score
    Supercar Street Challenge
    Stay far far away from this unfortunate mess.
    • 71 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Project Eden
    This is a PS2 series of riddles you don't want to rely too much on a strategy guide to beat, since solving them on your own or with friends is more than half the fun.
    • 97 Metascore
    • 100 Critic Score
    Grand Theft Auto III
    Simply put, Grand Theft Auto III is the best game to be released in the past two years. Possibly the best to be released in the past ten.
    • 63 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    Top Gun: Combat Zones
    Digital Integration has coded a lethargic, boring and snooze-inducing series of missions (about 30 of them) that are as unoriginal as they are predictably competent.
    • 74 Metascore
    • 92 Critic Score
    Spider-Man 2: Enter: Electro
    The kind of sequel that might disappoint many with its lack of change and innovation. At the same time it's a by the book sequel that continues the exciting play of the original.
    • 94 Metascore
    • 100 Critic Score
    Devil May Cry
    The best action adventure game on the planet.
    • 85 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    NASCAR Thunder 2002
    Thunder 2002 comes as close as any NASCAR title ever could to making me a convert to the sport, which is a high complement from someone that finds NASCAR races on TV way too boring and repetitive.
    • 65 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Thunderstrike: Operation Phoenix
    Tolerate the fog, put-up with the controller and live with the repetition of dying over and over again, and you too will be hooked.
    • 77 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Kinetica
    A unique trick system combined with beautiful graphic design are enough to give it a whirl. Difficult is the key word.
    • 69 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Castlevania Chronicles
    One tough mother through and through. It's a simpler, tighter, better-paced and more addictive old-school side-scroller adventure than 1997's "Symphony of the Night."
    • 36 Metascore
    • 40 Critic Score
    Paris-Dakar Rally
    All the licenses and potential that Paris-Dakar Rally has as an enjoyable rally experience, however, go to waste in a game that makes the event it portrays seem more boring and dull than it should be.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Scooby-Doo and the Cyber Chase
    For wealthy collectors of "Scooby-Doo" memorabilia or very small children that have yet to be exposed to a "Crash Bandicoot"-caliber action/adventure on PSOne.
    • 44 Metascore
    • 30 Critic Score
    The Mummy Returns
    A year ago this would have been a slight-step above "Army Men"-like badness, but in late 2001 it just doesn't have a snowball's chance in hell of justifying its existence as stand-alone PS2 software.
    • 83 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    F1 2001
    The best F1 racer currently available on the PS2. If you’re an F1 nut, we whole heartedly recommend it.
    • 69 Metascore
    • 85 Critic Score
    NASCAR Thunder 2002
    The racing in NASCAR Thunder 2002 is solid, fun and deep. Racing a career almost feels like an RPG when you take on the role of NASCAR's most famous teams and drivers.
