What Eternal Darkness might lack in top-notch graphics it more than makes up for with fantastic gameplay and spine-chilling atmosphere.

The action is solid, the presentation is average with flashes of brilliance, and the story surrounding it is alternately fascinating and flat.

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

Outlaw Golf's attitude lies solely in presentation, and while some may initially be turned off by the title's seemingly juvenile humor, the game's personality quickly grows on the player.

The only facet of the game that even comes close to satisfying is the abundance of match types.

Character designs are notably generic and boxy. Animation is quite stiff and the sluggish framerate does nothing to help matters. On the plus side, the environments are absolutely massive, and exhibit plenty of variety, creating a cohesive and believable alternate universe.

An appropriately nasty, brutish and short-lived game.

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

The most competent Tony Hawk mimic yet.

The gameplay is easy to learn, the graphics are adequate, and the team management system rivals those available in better soccer titles. It's too bad that it's bogged down by dull and restrictive controls on the field.

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.

A surprising good dancing game, featuring excellent graphics and motion-capture work.

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.

Simply too great a package for any RPG lover to be without.

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

Questionable camera controls, choppy graphics and sometimes frustrating gameplay are all but forgiven in the context of the rest of the game’s charms.

Questionable gameplay and graphics undermine the witty and unique style of this quirky ‘60s spy FPS.

Questionable camera controls and sometimes frustrating gameplay are all but forgiven in the context of the rest of the game's charms.

The repetitive action, repetitive action, bland graphics and most of all the repetitive action will numb you as you play.

A variety of cool weapons and powerups combined with intense aerial battles go a long way to compensate for the graphics.

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.

A problem-solving mission structure that rewards the player for lateral thinking, as well as an immersive world and a great story. I'm not sure if it'll win Game of the Year this time around, but it definitely deserves to be in the running.

Gamers willing to stick it out will be rewarded with a lengthy quest and plenty of challenge, but King's Field: The Ancient City is unlikely to create many new converts.

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.

It’s like Tetris, only with... No, wait. It’s just Tetris.

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

I predict that diehards will cherish this game for ages. Unfortunately novice players will get frustrated after the love affair with the graphics ends and the real challenges begin.

It’s as though Wow Entertainment couldn’t decide whether it wanted the game to be a sim or an arcade-style title. It ends up borrowing elements from both sub-genres, and as a result is decidedly average.
