    Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon
    The reason for this game's existence is a complete enigma to me. If you do happen to see it in a bargain bin for a few dollars, it might be worth the purchase, as there is some fun to be had, and it's very short, so you won't have to deal with it's annoying features for very long. That's the best I can say about this one.

    American Conquest: Fight Back
    Appeals to a more dedicated fan of this genre. It requires some reading of the manual and experimentation. There are many nuances and frustrations that will lead the casual gamer to frustration and ultimately to other games.

    Hunting Unlimited 2
    There’s a lot of waiting and wandering and enjoying the view, followed by a moment of excitement that I’d found a big beast and then panic that I would lose him. Later on in the game, as I got better and could edge closer, I found out that you can add terror to that list too.

    Bombastic
    It’s very challenging, and the completion is rewarding.

    Emergency Fire Response
    The fact that it's simplistic means that it's easy to jump into and have fun with, and the length of the game is just right - not too long to make the experience a bore, but not so short that you felt cheated of your money.

    Shrek: Reekin' Havoc
    Should offer up enough simple running and jumping and punching and kicking to satisfy those younger gamers out there who want nothing more than to hopelessly rekindle the experience of watching the film on their GBA.

    Navy SEALs: Weapons of Mass Destruction
    The worst title I have every played. I have not had a worse game play experience in my life. How can I say this, do not buy this title.

    SX Superstar
    SX Superstar isn't a horrible motocross game. It isn't a great one either, or even above average. It will find itself forever in the middle, a so-so effort from Acclaim.

    Arc the Lad: Twilight of the Spirits
    It may not be as appealing in the graphics as the other high class games, but the battle and story are pretty well-executed.

    Ikaruga
    Not only one of the best traditional shooters ever made, but also the only one that GameCube owners have the option to play.

    State of Emergency
    At $20 and with its multiplayer mode, State of Emergency is worth picking up by anyone in of some incredibly mindless destructive fun.

    War of the Monsters
    If this game were to have some sort of co-op mode of play or four-player multiplayer mode, it would have been great.

    Metroid Prime
    Every time you sit down with Metroid Prime the experience is always entirely different thanks to the ever-expanding environment and numerous enhancements that you'll consistently come across.

    Divine Divinity
    Divine Divinity goes an extra mile to create a dynamic world for the player.

    Wanted: Dead or Alive (2004)
    One of those games that really turned out like complete garbage, and I don't mind saying that...Please, take my word for it and don't spend any cash on this lousy game.

    Worldwide Soccer Manager 2006
    Quite solid, and if there is one problem, it is the steep learning curve. If you are new to manager-type games, then the huge amount of options can lead to quick frustration, but the tutorial and succinct manual alleviate this, if only a bit.

    Ankh
    Ankh delivers an enjoyable, kid-friendly romp through an attractive Egyptian setting in a compact, old-fashioned point-and-click package that is sure to induce a chuckle or two.

    Takeda 2
    The randomness of much of the game can bring to ruin even the best-laid plans, and having a longtime ally stab you in the back while your army is on the other side of the map is, to say the least, frustrating.

    AGON: The Mysterious Codex
    A huge disappointment. The board games provided are enjoyable, but the journey to each one is ultimately not even worth it.

    Battlefield 2: Armored Fury
    All in all, Battlefield 2: Armored Fury is a fun and challenging addition to the original game, and at a price of only $9.99, it is also highly affordable.

    Ultimate Duck Hunting
    I can only recommend this game to passionate duck hunters and those with 10-year-old PCs too feeble to run anything else. Then again, I suppose this title is the best duck-hunting game I have ever played.

    A Vampyre Story
    Having come from the imagination of a few of LucasArts alums, A Vampyre Story had the potential to spin a gothic comedy steeped in that tradition, which my score reflects. But I won't recommend half a game to players.

    Raven Squad: Operation Hidden Dagger
    If you are looking for a tactical military shooter, I recommend picking up either of the Ghost Recon: Advanced Warfighter games, as they are legitimate products of this generation in video games. I think I'll go play them right now just to wash away the vile taste of Raven Squad.

    Sword of the Stars: A Murder of Crows
    All in all, Sword of the Stars: A Murder of Crows is a worthwhile expansion to those who are already infatuated with the series, but it doesn't alter things enough to convert non-believers.
