    A beautiful game and with hardly ever any slow downs. The character design is this game’s strong part. The characters are something of a hybrid between Disney and Jim Hennson.

    The character models, cars, and buildings don't have all the ugly "jaggies" that were present in past versions of the games. Everything looks a lot smoother and the frame rate is much improved as well.

    Fix the camera! The ability to zoom in and out isnt enough. Add multiplayer as well, it would make the replay factor much higher.
    • 77 Metascore
    • 78 Critic Score
    The graphics need work and the fighting system needs an overhaul and don't forget to make the challengers a little tougher to beat. Also curb the cheesy one-liners.

    A little spit shine here and there could never hurt, but GOTY has really won me over... all over again.

    The campaign missions do get a little repetitive.
    • 79 Metascore
    • 86 Critic Score
    Has a ton of game play to offer, although it does get a little slow, dull and repetitive at times.

    Graphically Top Spin is drop dead gorgeous. Fantastic venues, beautiful textures, and nice lighting effects all lend to the “Realism” of the game.

    A second helping of same-same for those who truly grooved on the first installment – which is available as a $29 Platinum Hit bargain-title.
    • 63 Metascore
    • 52 Critic Score
    Definetly work on the camera...and add a jump button!
    • 75 Metascore
    • 74 Critic Score
    A nice little game with some well deserved kudos for the whole “Cover Tactics” mode. I would think it could use a graphical upgrade and a tweak in the camera department, but again a very solid release from Renderware and Namco.

    I am sitting here, looking at it, and feeling kind of shafted.

    The thing I’d really like to express is the need for online play. It’s not an option in this generation of games; it’s almost a requirement, especially for a game of this kind. A significantly longer career mode would be nice.

    You have great graphics, great sound, 10 different planes which are almost all upgradeable, you have 6 different multiplayer modes, you have the ability to jump out of your plane and man anti-aircraft guns, there are explosions, vendettas, online play. This game has it all.

    The streets are covered with activity and with very few slow downs. They best part is getting someone stuck on your car; this is where it gets fun.

    I suggest totally revamping the wrestling engine to make the game play more like a wrestling game and less like "Final Fight."
    • 71 Metascore
    • 90 Critic Score
    Everything from the menu screens to the game’s graphics has been revamped.
    • 45 Metascore

    For a $20 game, the environments look pretty dang good. You will be racing over and under tables and beds and plants plus whatever else they throw at you. I wouldn't say its eye candy, but they look good.

    Hopefully Midway decides to stick with the arcade style they are known for in the future and not drift away from the hardcore extreme style of their games.
    • 68 Metascore

    The new dunks and animations look spectacular and really light up your TV screen.
    • 73 Metascore

    The sound was actually pretty good. The in-game soundtrack which was heavily influenced by the New Orleans jazz scene was actually quite good and I didn't mind listening to the same songs over and over again as I repeatedly restarted a level.
    • 51 Metascore

    The puzzles of this game mostly rely on having to make certain jumps to reach switches that you have to turn on to open a door elsewhere in the ship. This is extremely difficult with the camera angles featured in the game. Overall the gameplay is mundane and repetitive.
    • 68 Metascore
    • 96 Critic Score
    This game touts one of the most expansive “create a superstar” modes I’ve seen yet. You can easily spend hours just making a character exactly what you want him, her or it to be.
    • 58 Metascore
    • 64 Critic Score
    If I were going to suggest something it would be to add a bit more gameplay depth. Just driving around and constantly shooting your gun really doesn't cut it these days.
    • 88 Metascore

    The game is outstanding, but I would possibly add the possibility of using downloaded rosters online.
    • 75 Metascore
    • 84 Critic Score
    A great game. Two things I can think off hand to change is the music. First, either go all Oriental or all Rock, not put them together. Second fix the AI, sometimes in the heat of battle they just stand there toe to toe with the enemy and do nothing.

    The best sports game I have played to date.

    A glitzy, colorful, Japanese, demon bashing, sword wielding, magic using tool of mass destruction which actively encourages you to smash, bash, demolish, destroy, kill and maim anything that moves, or doesn’t move for that matter.

    Excellent first entry Capcom! I think a lot of fishing fans will be wishing for a little more customization, but this is a solid title for the price it is being sold at.

    It boasts a special unique visual flavor to it. They honestly really didn't leave out too many details out to dry in this sucker. Right down to the last facial animation sequence, which you can playback later on.
    • 73 Metascore
    • 94 Critic Score
    The fighting system has been bulked up quite a bit, with approx. 150 combinations ranging from hand to hand to weapons.
    • 67 Metascore

    The addition of a create-a-player mode and some sort of system link or On-line capabilities would have put TMS near the top of this genre. But kudos for a solid and exciting gaming experience.

    Island Thunder offers an experience much different to the gun blazing rampage games out there such as Unreal, Mech Assault and many other shooting games. It offers a fairly realistic wartime experience to people without all the inconveniences of bullet wounds, battle fatigue syndrome and death.
    • 72 Metascore
    • 78 Critic Score
    This game ultimately requires persistence and patience. No brain busting puzzles here. Just make sure not to skip over key pieces of dialogue or clues or else you will find yourself running in circles.

    The Great Escape game had a hard time recreating what made the movie so great. Although my guess is not many gamers are going to be familiar with the movie, it should have been a better representation. Which I think would have made the game more enjoyable.

    A super in depth RPG that will make RPG fans and Star Wars fans alike go into complete game overload. Not without it's minor problems, but the character development, vast detailed environments, and the ever-alluring battle between the Light Side and the Dark Side are sure to overcome the blemishes.

    Graphically, the Outlaw environment shines in this game. All venues look superb with their unique and some times funny styles.
    • 65 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Realism is good, but it is important to find the fine line between being realistic and being boring. For example, a big ship in the game is slow and unmanageable, just like the real thing I am sure, but not much fun to control.

    This game is perfectly fine as a solo game. Not every FPS in the world needs to be Co-Op.

    What’s truly remarkable is that Digital Illusions has done a wonderful job retaining the essence of the previous Midtown Madness titles.

    This title is already very popular on Live, but the patch would make it 10x more enjoyable.

    Add custom soundtracks!!!!! Custom soundtracks should be mandatory, instead of being an extra treat.

    There’s a timer in races and you have to meet all the checkpoints in time so you don’t retire early. This gets quite frustrating whenever you don’t get there in time, and the whole timer aspect shouldn’t belong in motorcycle racing games period.

    Some sort of Multi-player set up could extend the life of this game, but i'm not sure how to implimant it. Otherwise, I think the game is solid fun.

    This is a great game for the younger crowd. How about working on a serious fighting title now? You know, for those of us who enjoy more involved fighting games?
    • 87 Metascore

    Don’t get me wrong, this is easily the best motorcycle sim ever… but why not add something new? Maybe you could add some crazy make-believe tracks or some different multiplayer modes. Either way, with a new release of this game it needed something new.

    The hacking option is truly a unique and amazing way to add additional interactivity into the game as well discover bonus content.

    One great feature in Live gameplay is when your teammates talk, a speaker icon appears over their head and on the compass so you know who’s talking and where they are.

    The graphics aren’t up to par for the Xbox, lets face it this is a port from the Gamecube . The monsters look just like their big screens brothers, but at times seem boxy where there should be curves.

    One big problem that irks me about the game is that there is no spotter for you. Your crew chief will help you from time to time, but that’s rare, and with no rear view mirror, it’s even worse to race.

    It wasn’t scary, it wasn’t enthralling, and the only feeling that it ever gave me was that I wasted 4 bucks to rent it.

    I really can't put my finger on it with this one, It just seemed...eh, Vanilla.

    After playing this game, I don't think I will even think I'll ever lay eyes on rollercoaster tycoon again even if it did just launch onto the Xbox not to long ago. I think I will stick with this game.

    This game has a fantastic, in-depth, career mode.

    One element I thought was pretty nifty was the fact that the screen displays each game exactly as it first appeared. What this means is you can look to the right side of the screen while playing Dig-Dug and see your score grow and post. I know it's a little thing, but really- it does help the game feel more like you're playing an actual arcade machine than a home television.

    The gameplay on Halo is utterly brilliant. It takes about 5-10 minutes to get used to the controls...and you may even wonder why it is controlled that way...but, after you get used to it, you will not want it to be any other way!

    This game is fantastic, even if you don't like cars/racing, this game will get you sucked in. With a huge track selection, and a wide variety of music, and amazing gameplay, this game is a must have for all types of gamers.
