Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines!

-Can't say I love the game. I haven't even played it since I bought it but I am a fan of the Terminator franchise. I thought the movie wasn't good either! It wasn't as good as T2 but that's another story...

Good one! I was just thinking about kung fu chaos a few days ago. My no-gaming best friend even liked it.

My favorite 1st pick would have to be Shenmue 2 on xbox. I won't say the review was bad (after all, it was a Dreamcast game first, and I don't know what it scored there), but it is probably my favorite game of the generation. I realize that it is not for everyone, though.

Cel Damage, they gave it a 5.7, now thats not right.

It may not be the best game but it sure was one of the funnest to play. I remember playing that game for a long time and with friends also. Great game and surely deserved to get a hight score. A 5.7 gamespot? thats just harsh. More like an 8 at least.

I completely agree with you- the review was right, it was repetitive at times, but it was still a great game.

Advent rising: got 5.7... unacceptable... The game play was AMAZING, the graphics so so, the power ups were AWSOME, all those weapons, and THE VEHICLES!

Van Helsing: got a 4.6 i think... YOU GET TO HAVE HAND HELD BUZZ SAWS!!!!! YOU RIP DEMONS APART!!!ITS BLOOD EVERY WHERE, THE PISTOLS WERE AWSOME!!! i just dont understand.

Second Sight: Ok... this got like a 6.1 or something... K the gameplay wasnt the best but... the story itself made it amazing. The ending was awsome. It was like a KOTOR just not a rpg. as in the story was FREAKIN AMAZING!!!!!!!!

Doom 3: alright, this got a pretty good score, 8.6 i think, but no question.. this should'a had a 9.0. The sound was the best i'veever heard, the graphics were amazing, the guns where awsome(shotgun was coolest), and the gameplay... scared the HELL outta me! you never new what was next. dead bodies everywhere. perfect.

Scarface, that game was so good, it was like Vice City 2.0, with tons of f bombs, awesome!!!hillelslovak

no i disagree there. I rented Scarface, and it played like $%&#. I think after like 1 hour I put it down and didnt touch it til i had to return it to the rental place.

Personally, when i think of Bad reviews for games i love JAWS:unleashed and Max Payne2 come to mind. I have actually beat Max Payne2 a couple times, and its fun to just mess with people in the game. And JAWS is just a very unique game, even if its a cheap simple game, i liked it more than a 3.8.

Darkwatch. It got a 7.something so I was put off at first. I watched the video then and thought, what the heck, the game looks fun so I baught it. Its extremely short but its a blast while it lasts and you can play it multiple times without getting bored. I wrote a review about it, you can read it in my profile.

Urban Chaos: Riot Response. Again. A 7.something game that turned out to be rather great. There are some shortcomings like an occasionally questionable framerate but its always playable. Sure, its a linear shooter so if you don't like those, stay away. However the game delivers. The action is great, the guns feel powerfull, the unlockables are usefull for the most part (unlockables should be in more first person shooters. They really add something to the game, even if they are just artworks or something) and, ah heck, its just fun. What mroe can you ask from a game really.

The story is ridiculously over-the-top and the intro with real people add to the B-Movie kind of feel. There are no real jokes in the game, but I actually had to laugh a few times because it was so ridiculous.

Metal Arms: Glitch in the System. The score on gamespot isn't bad. 8.something I think, but it deserved a higher score as well as more attention. The game is seriously underplayed. It has an awesome unique setting. It doesn't take itself serious. It has a cool old-school shooter feel to it but never-the-less it has some downright awesome new unique features without compromising either the new features or the old-school feel. It looks and runs good too and the voice acting is fun to say the least. All in all an awesome shooter and if it would have been there at launch it might have stolen Halo's show among the younger audience.

Operation Flashpoint: Elite. Easy to use mission editor. Second to none thrilling missions. Great realistic setting. THE one and only all around war-sim. There are more realistic flight-sims ("IL2: Sturmvoik"). There are more realistic tank-sims ("Steambeasts Pro"). And there are more realistic infantry sims ("Raven Shield" for close quarters, "SWAT3" for police missions, "Red Orchestra" and "Ghost Recon 1" for war) but there is no game that has it all on a similar level. Sure, the graphics suck, but so what? The game more than makes up for that. The pc version is superior due to the huge modding community but the xbox version deserves much more than a 6.something too!

Advent Rising: I don't understand why it got such a bad review. I didn't encounter any glitches, and the gameplay was really fun. It had a great score to it as well. And just running around blasting people with automatic rifles, one in each had was just awesome. That spaceship level with telekinesis was incredibly fun...

Van Helsing: It was pretty good game. I've played through it a couple times. I'm still trying to beat the challenges so that I can get the elephant gun. But I loved the guns because they had unlimited ammo. It was just fun emptying all of your guns into skeltons and other things.

Don't know about the other two. Yet...

Call of duty: finest hour.

the reviews were not that good (it got a 6.4 or something here), but i found it so much fun. but the lack of checkpoints does get to be a pain in the arse.

also, star wars: revenge of the sith. it's an awful game and its repetetive as hell, but its okay and kinda fun sometimes in short doses.

Kung Fu Chaos- 6.5.... ouch. Great, great multiplayer game. Jumping the log is a riot with 4 players. Probably the best light party game on xbox. It deserved more.

Psi Ops- Hmmm... Just saw it got 8.4 Well, you all should play it. Awesome 3rd person shooter with telekenisis.

Sudeki- I loved playing the FPS characters. It's like an RPG shooter. Great fun.

Castlevania for Xbox scored a 6.7, Fair.

After playing the game, I rated it an 8.8. I think the review was way off, expecially the 12 Hour start to finish time. Leveling up some of the Innocent Devils was fun. Even more fun watching them when leveled up, beat the carp out of my Foes.

This game has a better storyline then a lot of movies out there. Very entertaining, but I felt the gameplay was very frustrating.
