    The resources might have been ripped off from "Settlers," but they're perfectly balanced and you get a genuine sense of achievement as you build a thriving town from a few sticks and a couple of peasants.

    The graphics on Tropico are rich; you can almost smell the sea air while you're a mouse-click from arresting a political adversary.

    • 40 Critic Score
    The robot construction is simplistic in the extreme, the arenas are forgettable, and the actual combat is the epitome of boredom.
    • 88 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    This is one fantastically exciting shooter with a richly detailed game environment and varied gameplay.
    • 40 Metascore

    Flops in every possible way.
    • 75 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    A game built on solid gameplay mechanics featuring fast-paced exploding action, that delivers nothing but fun.
    • 66 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    While the control system is straightforward to pick up, it can also be ultimately frustrating - in fact, annoying enough to take a sparkle off the otherwise solid and enjoyable gameplay.

    A fantastic sequel.
    • 78 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Puts a futuristic twist in the high tech tale but is its storyline constructed like a Chicken Royale or a piece of nouvelle cuisine?
    • 90 Metascore
    • 100 Critic Score
    A stunning achievement.
    • 84 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Captivating.

    A bad game. Bad deeds deserve punishment, so I vote to have the entire Army Men development team plastifricated for unleashing this "game" onto the world.
    • 49 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    A fun hack-and-slash dungeon romp, with a good dose of RPG thrown in.
    • 60 Metascore
    • 40 Critic Score
    Unfortunately, we didn't quite get the sensation of frantic frustration and glory we usually do with pinball games.
    • 78 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Its plot is dramatic and ambitious, its gameplay involving, and it features some absolutely fantastic locations.
    • 87 Metascore

    If you're looking for a big gun and a legion of monsters to use it on, then Serious Sam's got what you need, with much prettier graphics than "Doom."

    They've apparently tried to recapture the magic of "StarCraft," but in this case the spell has fizzled.
    • 64 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    An interesting blend of genres that never really delivers a full-featured strategy game.
    • 76 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    A game that has so seriously squashed the competition that it's almost laughable.
    • 87 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Strikes a near perfect balance between solid RTS gameplay with an epic, fantasy storyline.
    • 82 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    It's simply too frenetic in spots for some tastes. Still, that's a fairly minor quibble with what is undoubtedly one of the more enjoyable strategy offerings of the year thus far.
    • 86 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Truly a gem of a game...The only problem I have with Onimusha is that it's a little too short. You can complete the adventure with a game time of five to six hours.
    • 82 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    A solid title, featuring a believable and interesting storyline, plenty of missions to work through, and even good graphics. However, it can get very tedious at times, testing the patience of the most tolerant of gamers.
    • 77 Metascore

    There are very bad collision problems with the ball and the fielder. I can't explain how frustrating it is for a player to catch a ball that is seven feet away from his glove.
    • 75 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Even more impressive than the original, offering richer gameplay, deformable terrain, real-time lighting, new zoom capability, and a host of other improvements that puts TMP at the top of the crowded RTS genre.

    It would have been much easier to justify a purchase if Battle for Naboo was released closer to a budget price.
    • 66 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Pretty to watch, but a real bore to play, and when it's not boring, it's frustrating. Not a good mix.
    • 58 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    The latest release in this hopelessly unrealistic arcade series that just fell yet another notch on the realism scale.
    • 74 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    By far the most realistic golf game to date and should be snapped up even by those with a vague interest in the game.
    • 64 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    The soundtrack ranks as one of the most impressive to date. Mixing bass-thumping hip-hop grooves with epic, tension-building in-race vibes, it's well worth cranking up the volume for a fully engrossing driving experience.
