From the second that they catch you in their radar, these boys are all over you like white on rice and these guys are not afraid of trading paint to put you into a guardrail or two. Just getting through the course without getting pinched is an accomplishment in itself.

If you love college football, you will love this game.

If you are looking for a topnotch flier, you can call off the search. This one is a must-have for any PS2 owner.

Max Payne is a gritty, blood-filled, third person shooter from Rockstar. If you are appalled by slow motion and gory killings, then you should look elsewhere.

Gamecube owners, you are unfortunately left in the dark for online play this year. This can become a horrible burden, as it is a hassle to try and manually complete all the trades for each team so your rosters are correct with the times.

Not only is this new shooter one of the most beautiful-looking games ever made, but it’s quite possibly one of the best single player adventures ever.

The Chronicles of Riddick: Escape From Butcher Bay has breathed new life into movie-to-game adaptations. It is the wonderful mixture of graphical beauty and seamless gameplay, that we've all waited for.

The squad based combat was a great idea and the developers executed it perfectly.

One hell of a good platformer with an awe inspiring story to keep it going if gamers feel the platforming is getting redundant.

The graphics are amazing inside the ring. You can see cuts, gashes and welts form on the face as you are going along in the match.

The graphics in Oddworld: Stranger's Wrath are breathtaking. The in-game graphics and especially the cutscene graphics are, honestly, the best graphics I've seen of any EA game that's been on the Xbox to date.

The Owner's Mode is pretty nifty. You not only control the team rosters, but now you control absolutely everything on the team.

You should like this game even if you have never played a flying game before. Crimson Skies doesn't get old very quickly nor does it involve redundancy or tediousness as seen in some other games.

It is an arcade racer at heart but a frantic, action packed, total-your-car racer in every other light and it makes its way to Xbox owners sporting improved crash physics, improved AI, more speed, new game modes and custom soundtracks.

I’ve never seen a game like this before, where the graphics, sounds, and surroundings actually make the game creepy.
