    Warcraft III: Reign of Chaos
    But what Warcraft lacks in technology, it makes up for with the flair, imagination and careful attentiveness from its art designers.

    Deus Ex: The Conspiracy
    Luckily, the game is designed to be open-ended enough to let you explore multiple ways in overcoming a problem, leading to a sense of discovery and freedom, again something not typical of first-person shooters.

    Metroid Prime 2: Echoes
    By offering more control options and a more user-friendly system of save points, Retro Studios could have worked wonders at opening up the Metroid Prime series for new fans or more casual gamers.

    Twisted Metal: Head-On
    Sure, it may hit a few speedbumps along the way, but the multiplayer appeal can't be denied -- and thanks to the infrastructure support, you don't have to worry about finding local competitors.

    ATV Offroad Fury
    When you do get in the groove, and you're timing all your jumps perfectly, this game puts you in that hypnotic trance of gaming goodness. It's a very rewarding feeling.

    The Godfather: Blackhand Edition
    We haven't been bowled over by most of the Wii-makes hitting shelves so far, but The Godfather is a definite exception. The controls and extra content more than make up for the fact that the game already looks visually dated.

    The Sting!
    Hugely compelling and damned addictive.

    Wakeboarding Unleashed Featuring Shaun Murray
    Wakeboarding Unleashed may have a few rough edges, but it is a franchise that is destined for greatness. Incredibly playable and lots of fun.

    Sam & Max Episode 104: Abe Lincoln Must Die!
    Episode 4's brand of observational satire is new territory for the series, and the game's anthropomorphic stars are very much at home with it.
    • 85 Metascore

    Astro Boy: Omega Factor
    Signature company staples -- hordes of enemies, screens filled to bursting with explosive sprites, and a fiendish difficulty setting -- underscore a stunning, bite-sized seven-episode morsel.

    Baldur's Gate: Dark Alliance II
    But with a friend, Dark Alliance II's polished, addictive and comparatively deep gameplay, along with much improved replay value, makes it one of the best cooperative games around.

    Star Wars: Battlefront
    The game succeeds admirably in terms of offering a fine selection of firefight features under any configuration.

    Resident Evil 0
    As high quality as the series has ever been, with superb dramatic sensibilities, a decent storyline, improved acting, high calibre FMV cutscenes, and some dynamic camera work.
    • 75 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    SiN Episodes: Emergence
    While it has its flaws, it's paced well, full of action, and managed to keep us smiling all the way to the end. With a tweak here and a polish there, Ritual could really be onto something good. Bring on part two.

    I-Ninja
    Super-serious types who regularly dust their Ninja Scroll collections might have problems with its goofy, irreverent tone, but pure gamers will find a lot of pure fun.
    • 79 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Hunter: The Reckoning
    A great visual and auditory package, and an extremely entertaining game to boot.
    • 83 Metascore

    Genma Onimusha
    For fans of the original, this is the version to own, providing super slick game mechanics and excellent presentation. Just don’t expect it to do anything other than entertain you for a while, rather than knock the pants off your head like "Halo" did.
    • 81 Metascore

    RollerCoaster Tycoon 3
    The new engine looks great, the interface (once you get to grips with it) works reasonably well, and the economic model is compelling enough to keep you playing.
    • 77 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Tony Hawk's American Wasteland
    A definite step up from the Underground brand, but make no mistake: It's still yet another Tony Hawk game.
    • 81 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Kohan II: Kings of War
    Kohan II's single-player campaign is passable, but doesn't do as much to break the RTS mould as the rest of the game. Most players will head straight for skirmish matches against the AI, and just like the original, they'll find it excellent, challenging, and convincing, as enemy or teammate.

    Luigi's Mansion
    There's a lot of action to play through, it's fun to get to grips with and looks great, so if you love the Mario Brothers "plumb" for this one.

    • 80 Critic Score
    Metal Gear Solid: Portable Ops
    As a single-player game, Portable Ops can't match the scope and drama of its predecessors. Of course, with its bite-sized style and team aspect, it doesn't really try to. This is one of the PSP's best multiplayer titles, giving you essentially a two-for-one experience.

    MotoGP
    Worthy of ranking alongside some of the best console racing games to date.
    • 79 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    The Simpsons: Hit & Run
    While the missions in The Simpsons: Hit and Run can take on an air of sameness after a while and the pursuit scheme is less than completely thought out, the most startling thing we can note is that the gameplay stands on its own, Simpsons or no Simpsons.

    Half-Life
    It's the way the game is laid out and immerses you that makes Half-Life the cat's golden milk-drenched whiskers.

    Gunstar Super Heroes
    An amazing shooter, reviving the 2D gameplay. It's disappointing to see co-op multiplayer missing and a few more levels really would've been nice, but Super Heroes will still save the day for just about anyone with a GBA or DS.

    Independence War 2: Edge of Chaos
    If you're a hardcore space simmer, you won't find better out there - it really is as simple as that. The sheer depth of the thing combined with the freeform universe, gorgeous graphics and near-perfect physics engine means you could play this non-stop for weeks and just not get bored.
    • 82 Metascore

    V-Rally 3
    Fans of both the series and racing titles will lap this up (no pun intended).

    Pro Race Driver
    As disturbing, shocking and distrustful as it may seem, the cinematic cuts and their dramatic content are actually well written, directed and acted. There's just enough competent drama going on here that you can take your race driver's odyssey halfway seriously.

    Tom Clancy's EndWar
    From the integrated, Ghost Recon-style info on your HUD to the third-person camera and voice command system, everything is designed to keep you right in the game with the squads on the front line. The strategy pays off, making EndWar a unique and challenging new weapon in the Tom Clancy arsenal.
