    Puzzle Pirates takes several well-established internet games, mixes in some excellent new ideas, and ties them all together with a friendly, simple theme that's interesting, fun, and certainly inoffensive.

    A sleeper hit because of the simplicity of the gameplay and the intricacy of the strategy.
    • 66 Metascore
    • 73 Critic Score
    The biggest bummer about the game, though, is the absence of last year's entirely enjoyable story mode. The new Dragon World mode is simply not fun enough to warrant the lack of a fleshed out story mode.

    Those who don't go beyond the first few hours of play will probably call the game mediocre, possibly even amateurish. But give it time, avoid the story and I'll bet half my fleet you'll enjoy X2: The Threat.

    The Sands of Time pulls off smart puzzles, extremely intense combat and a pretty sweet story to boot.

    With surprises around every corner, non-stop action, great graphics, exceptional story-telling, standard-bearing weapon design, professional voices, easy controls, classic levels and thoughtful details Armed and Dangerous should be bought. Now!

    It's frustrating, though. There are so many great ideas on display in Deus Ex: Invisible War, but the implementation is spotty at best.

    Even though some features were missing from Max Payne 2, the audio attribute of the game is superb.

    It is a better adventure, in my opinion than the original game and definitely a level up from "Shadows of Undrentide."

    A complete failure in terms of presenting an enjoyable gaming experience. It does qualify as a "video activity", but using the word "game" would be giving this horrible release too much credit.

    While Operation Surma has definitely "borrowed" more than a few ideas from Splinter Cell, I still think that the game does a good job of adding on to previous ideas and expanding them.

    Invisible War kind of looks like it was meant to be a much, much better game than it is, with a lot of half-finished ideas that aren't taken quite far enough.
    • 79 Metascore
    • 75 Critic Score
    Just your average shooter. It doesn't really offer any innovation in the genre and the graphics and audio are rather plain.
    • 87 Metascore

    BG&E is all about originality and uniqueness and no place does it shine better than in the graphics department. The sheer number of characters is astonishing, but the fact that each one has a personal style and attitude makes that game so much more believable.

    This is the first game I've reviewed where I cannot justify buying this game to anyone-and coming from a hardcore EQ player, that's a tough thing to do.
    • 72 Metascore

    The inability to save at will is the only real weakness in this title. It is one of the few immersive Gameboy Advanced titles out there.
    • 84 Metascore
    • 85 Critic Score
    A fantastic game that falls short of perfection because of its length. Great story, action, graphics, and sound make this a game to remember, but coming in at less than 7 hours of gameplay really hurts the value.
    • 73 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    The graphics really do serve to enhance the overall feel of the game, almost working to white-out the flaws that are present.

    Taiketsu does not live up to the bar put in place by its sister series, Budokai. It does not have the same polish in it's gameplay, and it definitely does not have the frantic feeling of the epic battles that took place in the original comic or T.V. series.

    I would say the strength of this game definitely lies in its story telling.
    • 83 Metascore
    • 86 Critic Score
    A great story that is worth playing through at least twice, of course when a game is this good, you always want more.

    A more-than-perfect gift for the kiddies, and a solid rental at the very least for older people who, like me, still love the Looney Tunes characters.

    A slight disappointment. While it continues on the storyline, and brings back some familiar characters, it just fails to improve on an existing idea. All of the new ideas which were created specifically for this game just don't really cut it.
    • 69 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Its gameplay is tight and varied at times to keep you involved and challenged but not frustrated.
    • 66 Metascore
    • 84 Critic Score
    It's not insta-classic material, but it is a fun game that exhibits solid gameplay and a good sense of humor.
    • 72 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    A pretty easy game to let go and move on from.

    Most who manage to make it through to the end-credits of XIII will likely do so due to its consistently interesting and engaging storyline.

    One of the slight problems I had with this game was the difficulty. At many points in this game the difficulty got to be very testing. At times it seems like you are being swarmed by enemies, and some parts may take a lot of practice to get through.

    Just plain fun. I haven't been this addicted to a game in some time, and I'm looking forward to wrapping up this review so I can get back to playing it.

    An awesome game. It flexes great graphics despite being limited by PS2's hardware and multiplatform snags. The only major weakness to this game is the lack of multiplayer.
