    Virtua Tennis 3

    Despite its minor flaws, this is a solid, challenging tennis game with an outstanding cast and an immersive career mode.

    First off, I have played most tennis games they make these days, especially the Top Spin series, which I loved. However, I think Sega managed to make the best tennis game on the market right now. The career mode is th... Read Full Review

    There are definitely frustrating parts to Evil Genius, but after overcoming those, it is an ingenious masterpiece.

    Evil Genius

    There are definitely frustrating parts to Evil Genius, but after overcoming those, it is an ingenious masterpiece.

    Evil Genius is a single player game, that is really probably unlike anything you've ever played before. Instead of being a hero, you are the maniacal madman (or woman) and you go through several stages until you finally ... Read Full Review

    NFL Street 2

    If you're looking for a very cheap, extremely creative, fun Street game, NFL Street 2 might be the answer...maybe.

    After NFL Blitz seemed to drop off the map, a different kind of football game came out, called NFL Street. With the sequel, they seemed to have greatly improved the game engine and added even more interesting games and m... Read Full Review

    Lost Planet is a great game...nothing extraordinary but well worth playing through and coming back for the multiplayer.

    Lost Planet: Extreme Condition

    Lost Planet is a great game...nothing extraordinary but well worth playing through and coming back for the multiplayer.

    Lost Planet is not necessarily revolutionary, by any means, but is a simple, solid 3rd person shooter based in the future. Still, that doesn't mean it's not unique. Unique is exactly what it is. The single player mode... Read Full Review

    Still worth playing, still perhaps the best street racer out there.

    Midnight Club has evolved quite a bit over the years. In this installment, the changes are definitely for the better. Since Midnight Club 2, the decent street racer that was quickly outdone by NFS Underground, Rockstar k... Read Full Review

    Star Trek The Next Generation: Birth of the Federation

    Close to the greatest Star Trek game ever made. Strategy fans would probably still like it.

    Birth of the Federation is one of the only Star Trek games made in this fashion, one of those turn-based strategy games that you rarely see today, and I don't think it was very popular, but it's a sad thing. I think even... Read Full Review

    Pretty good...but even the last NBA Street is still more worth the money more than this.

    I am a Street Ball fan, and the NBA Street franchise is one of my favorite sports games out there, but this game doesn't reach that level. If you've played the first one, there isn't much more to it, not to mention that ... Read Full Review

    I thought Empires 5 would finally be another awesome Dynasty Warriors, but I got bored before I could care.

    DW5: Empires is definitely a great, ambitious idea. I love the set up of everything they've done, finally putting another decent spin on the franchise that seems to quickly be losing steam. I liked DW4: Empires, so I exp... Read Full Review

    City of Villains

    A different experience than most MMOs, and an entertaining ride built on a great engine, but can leave you wanting more.

    In City of Villains you take on the role of...you guessed it, a villain with super powers. Of course, as the GS review sums it up, you don't really feel like a villain. Probably 80% of the time, you just beat up other vi... Read Full Review

    Maybe the best wrestling game ever made, but it gets repetitive in many ways, keeping it from being a near-perfect game.

    Every year, THQ seems to be improving their wrestling game. Last year, 06 on the PS2 was an incredible game in itself with a great storyline, good character customization like usual, and pretty good controls in the ring.... Read Full Review

    Star Wars: Republic Commando

    The single player campaign is one of the best I've seen in a long time, after those 16 hours, it's just so-so.

    What can I say about Republic Commando? Well, first off, the hype about RC was definitely the single player mode. And let's just say that that part was not a letdown, although a couple parts were disappointing. The devel... Read Full Review

    Star Wars: Battlefront II

    Somehow, Lucasarts actually pumped out another great FPS, with a multiplayer that can stay good for hundreds of hours.

    The original Battlefront was something like the best-selling Star Wars FPS of all time, or just best-selling Star Wars game even. I'm an enormous Star Wars fan, and although I liked that game, I like this more. The si... Read Full Review

    City of Heroes

    Simple, yet deliciously addictive, CoH gives an immersive, entertaining environment that keeps you coming back for more.

    City of Heroes is not revolutionary, other than perhaps the fact that it is the first MMO where you can create and play for your own superhero. And yet, it is probably the most entertaining and addicting MMO I've played ... Read Full Review

    The greatest RPG ever made, everyone with an interest in Star Wars or RPGs must buy this now.

    It's definitely a good game, but it does not live up to its predecessor, and in fact is a little depressing.
