The game really suffers from a lack of plot length, seeing as I spent over four times as long playing with the side-quests and mini-games than I did playing the main storyline. The gameplay that IS there is quite enjoyable.

A truly incomprehensible final product. This game, although given the title Bad Boys, and perhaps living up to the vulgarity and profanity of the movies, does nothing to quell the hunger for explosion, action, wit, or anything that the movies may have given me in an equal amount of time. What a waste.

This expansion brings something to the table for both the hardcore and the not-so-hardcore gamer. As previously mentioned, it also shows that SOE is willing to listen to its customers and make the game fun for them--a step that I truly hope is followed through on any expansions to be released in the future.

An exceptional game. Creating an economic sim that reaches out to gamers who typically don't enjoy calculating their net worth is a valiant effort, and Ascaron Entertainment succeeded in that effort.

I found the lack of resource-gathering, short learning curve and quick action enjoyable.

Burnout 3 will remind you why you started playing games – not because of the competition, or to enter into some fifty hour experience grinding session online, but because of an experience that constitutes such pure fun that it’s impossible to stop a grin breaking out on your face.

Comparison with other similar style games notwithstanding, this is a great concept, poorly implemented. While the story in itself was engaging and well pieced together, the gameplay induces a berserker rage of frustration.

Street mode will leave you wanting after a few hours, but the instant action of arcade mode and the possibilities of multiplayer action provide ample opportunity for fun. It's a mixed bag, so think of the main game mode like a minigame...a really big minigame.

The disguises and a few little touches here and there are nice; however, the third-person stealth genre is getting kind of stale, and, without some serious formula changes, there isn’t really enough here to make this game stand out from the competition.

A decent game with albeit repetitive, but addicting, gameplay. If you are looking for a fun action game with cool visuals that doesn't require a ton of thought, Dynasty Warriors 4: Empires is one game worth playing.

A great RPG that does a great job filling the void that is the sci-fi RPG genre. Combining tried and tested RPG elements with new tweaks like the combat system and mapping system, Star Ocean fully satiated my RPG hunger.

As for best in the pseudo-series, it's a tossup between this and "Disgaea," and will likely come down to a debate over the free-roaming battle system and the confinement system.

Instant action mode is like getting bonked on the head by five people while trying to find your bearings and doesn't really even help you learn to fly.

This truly is worth every single penny. As a novice to chess myself, there was a variety of tools and features that I'm sure will enable me to enhance my chess skills.

There's just nothing to work towards in this game, other than the end, so you end up feeling like you're playing missions with no real purpose.

The off-the-field interface is simple and intuitive, but even Madden veterans will need a little time to learn all the new defensive playmaker calls available before the snap.

The storyline is compelling, the graphics are good, and the action is exhilarating, so it has something for almost everyone.

It feels much more like a mystery than a run’n’gun kind of game that people have become accustomed to after years of playing id games, and that is not a bad thing. This game has a real story and it’s a really great one to boot.

I found it difficult to play it for more than an hour or so until I was four hours into it, due to just the awkward feel to the controls and game. Once you get over the hump, though, then you start being able to spend hours playing without realizing it.

The single player racing modes combine with a track editor for near infinite replayability, even with some of the core gameplay issues.

Definitely aimed at a different vein of gamers, but it gives the veteran gamer something different besides the typical twitch-fest.

The game is innovative and daring and that goes a helluva long way.

I don’t suggest this game to every gamer but, for those who love/like puzzle games, this is a must.
