    Rule of Rose
    The story may be unique, but the overall game design, as represented by the combat model, is one characterized by laziness masked as tradition. It's accepted that survival horror has lame combat, boss battles and fetch quests, so Rule of Rose has all those things, too.

    Empire of the Ants (2001)
    If you are looking for a playable, original strategy game then you're best off looking elsewhere. And if you want ants, well, just buy an Ant Farm.

    Legion (2002)
    While the developers have done a good job of crafting a simplistic strategy game, it lacks the depth that most players require today.

    AquaNox 2: Revelation
    There are innumerable superior first-person shooters and a good number of top-quality mission-based combat games - AquaNox 2: Revelation combines elements of both, but it's really not a compelling mixture.

    The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring
    Even in the face of the irritating gameplay and lack of functionality, it's the liberties the game takes with its source that hurt the most.

    Yu-Gi-Oh! The Duelists of the Roses
    When these sorts of loaded odds are all you get in lieu of a competitive computer player, the whole thing feels like you're being cheated rather than challenged.

    Playboy: The Mansion
    The learning curve is considerable. Beginners are sure to be put off by the sheer volume of information presented. The game's interface -- all icons and indicators -- will also be uncomfortable for casual enthusiasts.

    Maximum Capacity: Hotel Giant
    Hardened "Sims" fans already inhabit a virtual world they would loathe to leave for such a pale imitation, and management aficionados will decry the lack of depth and flexibility within the gameplay.

    Conflict Zone
    The problem is that the innovations seem incomplete, and without them, it really is just another RTS.

    Dark Planet: Battle for Natrolis
    Superior graphics...but its poor interface, repetitious campaign modes and unchallenging AI has relegated it to just another also-ran.

    Coded Arms
    Unfortunately, no amount of tweaking will result in a set of buttons replacing an analog stick -- the end result is less than desirable.

    The Hobbit
    A fine place to start for younger gamers. In that respect, the puzzles, side quests and overall presentation are just about right.

    Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles
    It's a decent action fighter, but definitely repetitive and has little to increase its short life span. The button-masher crowd should have a good time, but we don't think the heroes in a half-shell deserve too much pizza money out of this one.

    Bloody Roar 4
    Severely limp-wristed, Bloody Roar 4 gets smacked senseless by its immediate peers. It's a crying shame, as fans of the product line might even take offense. Little care or concern was invested in the game, and it shows.

    Robin Hood: Defender of the Crown
    A trip down memory lane for anyone pining for the original, but without strategic and gameplay enhancements, it's just a poor game by 2003 standards.

    Monster House
    It's just one extended chair wrecking, box-shoving session. And that's a house of pain, to be sure.

    Sonic Riders
    Why not make a game starring Sonic and only Sonic, where he's running around on his own two legs, without any weapons besides his own body, in an action/platformer? Crazy? Yes, but it just might work.

    Chris Sawyer's Locomotion
    There's a fine strategy game under here somewhere, but the clumsy interface and staid presentation mean few people will have the patience to find it.

    Motor Mayhem: Vehicular Combat League
    The game fails on the fact that it's faaar too simple.

    Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six: Lockdown
    It's another throwaway shooter with bad AI, forgettable single player levels, and glib unremarkable multiplayer options. Here lies Rainbow Six. Rest in peace, while we go reinstall "Raven Shield."

    The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring
    What's disappointing is that Lord of the Rings is not really that great at getting you into the action.

    Leisure Suit Larry: Magna Cum Laude
    If you're a Larry fan from way back, Magna Cum Laude takes the series into a pleasing new direction. But it needs a greater variety of challenges to be more appealing.

    NBA Live 07
    Where NBA Live offends most is sadly in its gameplay. A reviewer could literally fill an entire page of notes with criticisms of this nature.

    Headhunter: Redemption
    Ignoring the lackluster controls and bad animation, there's a decent action/adventure experience in Headhunter: Redemption, with a lengthy quest punctuated with plenty of gunplay and occasionally interesting puzzles.

    Riding Spirits
    A hard game to recommend, but just as hard to universally bash.

    Lineage: The Blood Pledge
    Masterfully simple, overwhelmingly addictive.

    Outlive (2001)
    They've apparently tried to recapture the magic of "StarCraft," but in this case the spell has fizzled.

    Kingdom Under Fire: A War of Heroes
    Not to say it's a bad game, but each of the elements - RTS and Action/RPG - are only shadows of the best of breed in their genre.

    Everblue 2
    The storyline features such ridiculous contrivances as diving to find the ingredients to make aspirin for someone's grandmother, who has back pain. Ugh.

    King Arthur
    It's solid-looking, but terribly tedious and irritatingly hard at points. In co-op, it's better, but it's a still a long way from being good.
