Unfortunately, this version of Capcom's seminal survival horror title doesn't play as good as it looks. As a matter of fact, it plays a whole heck of a lot like the original Resident Evil.

The game falls short of putting you in the cockpit. The whole idea of a dogfight is non-existent. The enemy crafts move too quickly, abandoning any thought of pursuit.

WSB for the Xbox feels much more like an upgrade than a complete overhaul...This game is easily the best baseball game on the market, but as fans of the genre know, that's not really saying much.

The story is only average for a RPG (make that above average if you love the air pirates setting), the combat system is mildly interesting but lacks much in the way of depth and the presentation is a bit dated.

The music alone will draw you back for a few repeat plays, just don’t expect it to last much longer than a single rental period.

Although Capcom vs. SNK 2 doesn’t break any new ground, there is enough depth here to keep any 2D fighting game fan happy.

While multiplayer accessibility is limited, head-to-head play is better than it ever has been before.

The strong multiplayer establishes Bomberman Online as a worthwhile purchase. Though the story mode is challenging, once finished, there is little incentive to continue play.

The sound of skates on ice is particularly grating here, sounding more like nails on a blackboard than thin knives of steel dragging across a slab of frozen water.

It just can’t match up to the PC and Xbox versions due to the difference in graphics quality and the lack of an important gameplay element.

Instead of going back and fine-tuning the game's fundamentals, the developers let the broken stuff stay broken and added in some cheap new bells and whistles.

If you really go for the flavor of early-90’s style graphics and gameplay, and if you have the patience of a rock, then by all means enter and be saved. As for us skeptics, it will take a lot more than nostalgia to win our faith.

It’s fun in small doses, but frustrating whenever you try to get into it.

The gameplay just can’t measure up to the excellent graphics. Each of the huge levels become tedious due to no-brainer puzzles and a poor combat system.

The gameplay is alternately fun and frustrating, the graphics are both striking and stilted, and the sound... No, the sound’s laughably bad all the way through.

JC2 shows promise initially, but a quirky sense of humor and an endearing fairy sidekick aren't enough to save it from becoming repetitive.

Blitz is still a fun game, but it's in danger of joining NBA Jam and its cadre of rehashes ("NBA Hoops", "NBA Showtime") in the realm of the utterly irrelevant.

Full of unrealized potential and will likely be quickly forgotten as new games succeed where this game failed.

Put simply, BRPF thrives on button mashing. For those unfamiliar with the term, this means that even the most skilled player can fall victim to a first-timer's frenzied and haphazard button presses.

Thanks to a ludicrous save scheme, once you start, you had better not stop until you reach the end.

To be honest, if the graphics were anything less, gamers would put this game down in a heartbeat.

Although the Japanese influenced gameplay is engaging at first, countless deathmatch battles and only three arenas hurt the overall appeal.

Robotech will likely give all players a buzz with the incredible visuals, but ultimately the repetitive play and unrewarding control scheme will leave them wanting more.

This could be the best looking console game yet... Sadly for fans of the sport, the beach volleyball gameplay is just plain lacking.

It’s pretty much a given that beating up Nazis is inherently fun, but the developers threw in some truly entertaining wrinkles into the combat to make the Nazi-bashing especially enticing.

Because it demands a lot of precision during play, sometimes the fun gets lost in the shuffle.

A unique title with controls too complex for an arcade title and action too ridiculous for a simulation.

All bloodthirsty primal tendencies aside, the game remains shallow. The storyline is weak and incoherent.
