Lost Planet: Extreme Condition

1st great game of the year.

It's good to see a Japanese company bring out a title that appeals to a lot of people worldwide. Especially being a new IP and all. I commend Capcom for taking a chance with this game. Story - I'm sure there are ple... Read Full Review

Shining Tears

A decent RPG, if ya can still handle SNES graphics.

Shining Tears has some really outdated graphics. It has a pretty good story, no where near a Final Fantasy game. But you will probably find yourself drawn in enough to keep playing. The worse thing is the fighting sys... Read Full Review

Chicago Enforcer

Why bother making a hack job game like this? Really, did someone think that this would sell.

Chicago Enforcer is a game you should not play. Or maybe play to get a good laugh at how horrible it is. Graphics suck, gameplay sucks, and it doesn't even really have any music. Come on when was the last time a game ... Read Full Review

Urban Reign

Same mission stuck on repeat.

Urban Reign is a pretty standard beat 'em up. It has 100 missions of fighting your way through street gangs and organized crime gangs. Overall has a pretty cheesy storyline, rather boring. There's nothing that really ... Read Full Review

Evil Dead: Regeneration

Best Evil Dead game yet. Though that doesn't say a whole lot.

Anyone wishing for Evil Dead 4 movie, should play this. Bruce Campbell returns to voice Ash again. Along with Ted Raimi (Sam Raimi's brother) as the voice of Sam (a deadite midget sidekick). The game is pretty much ha... Read Full Review

Cold Fear

Resident Evil meets The Perfect Storm.

I've been catching up on some games I missed out on earlier part of this year. Came across Cold Fear decided to give it a chance. I'm not the biggest fan of survival horror, I'm big fan of Resident Evil 4 though. Wel... Read Full Review

Serious Sam II

By the end of this game you will have killed as many creatures, as people in Alaska.

Serious Sam II only goes for one thing, run n' gun. Plain and simple. No deep storyline, no deep gameplay mechanics. Just run around and kill thousands upon thousands of enemies. Fans of Serious Sam series will enjoy... Read Full Review

Batman Begins

The best Batman game yet.

Ea did a decent job on Batman Begins. That doesn't say a whole lot, because every other Batman game before has been really terrible. Batman Begins has some really great graphics, follows the movie for the most part. G... Read Full Review

Far Cry Instincts

Far Cry: Instincts is up there with the best FPSs on Xbox.

It seemed that it took forever to get this game on Xbox from the PC. Come to find out it was rebuilt from the ground up for the Xbox version, so it's not really a port of the PC game. You're Jack Carver a boat captain ... Read Full Review

The Suffering: Ties That Bind

Great follow up to the original.

Ties That Bind is a really good story driven 3rd person shooter. If you like the original Suffering you will dig this one. It does nothing really new in terms of gameplay, nor does it fix any control issues I had with... Read Full Review

Black (Platinum Hits)

An example of an overhyped game that just doesn't live up to the expectations.

On one hand Black is a pretty good fps, on the other, there was so much hype surrounding this game that it just doesn't live up to it. That said, if you're looking for a new fps on Xbox definately check it out. The sto... Read Full Review

Area 51

Any FPS fan should play this one.

Though Area 51 is not the most original FPS out there, it definately has it's pros that make it a worth while experience. The story follows a military type soldier through the bowels of Area 51. Things get wierder the ... Read Full Review

The Punisher

Time to get bloody.

The Punisher is an o.k. action game. But if you are a big Punisher fan, then you will have a lot to like here. Thomas Jane (the dude that played him in the movie) voices Frank Castle, in which he does a really great jo... Read Full Review

Devil May Cry 3

And comes the brother of Ninja Gaiden in terms of being frustratingly hard.

DMC 3 is hard!!!! That is the biggest thing you will notice about this game. All that being said, DMC 3 is the best of the series. Deep combat system, but not to hard to get into. Great story, easily the best of the t... Read Full Review

Mercenaries: Playground of Destruction

Really good action game.

This game is not very deep, nor has a lot of depth. But one thing is does good, it lets you destroy any and everything. Good play control adds to the experience. The game is crammed with missions galore. You work for... Read Full Review

Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater

Hungry? Why wait? Shoot a frog and chow down.

Story - One of the best stories ever told in a video game. The Metal Gear series has always been know for cinematic storytelling and it doesn't end here. MGS3 is up there with MGS1 as far as the story goes. Even thoug... Read Full Review

Aeon Flux

Ever played Bloodrayne before?

Aeon Flux is probably one of the better games based on a movie this year. If you ever played Bloodrayne before, you will be in similiar territory. It was developed by the same people and uses the same engine as Bloodra... Read Full Review

Star Fox Adventures

A little flying, mostly platformer....but a great one.

First of all, this isn't a typical Star Fox game. However there is some flying, very little. Instead it's a great platformer. A very unique one at that. SFA is a beautiful game. So many colors and detail is really w... Read Full Review

Devil May Cry 2

Move outta the way and give me Devil May Cry 3 instead.

Well first things first, I have just got around to playing DMC 2, it's already been out 2 years. I really like Devil May Cry, but I must say and I believe alot of people agree DMC 2 is about 3 steps down from the origin... Read Full Review

Psi-Ops: The Mindgate Conspiracy

What can be better than taking over enemy A.I. and jumping off of a sniper tower???

Psi-Ops is game definately worth playing, it is a really great 3rd person shooter. Not the best but worth playing. This game introduces us to using psi powers, which is totally awesome. You get 6 powers that are gained... Read Full Review

The Getaway: Black Monday

Controls are still wonky, cinematic style still present.

When the original The Getaway came out, I thought ok a GTA clone, but when I played it I realized the game did something I had never seen before. It was a game that had plenty of Guy Richie-esque style to it. Kinda lik... Read Full Review

Champions: Return to Arms

Haven't I been here before? Yeah, but I love killing and leveling up

I enjoy playing action "hacknslash" rpgs and the new Champions game will fulfill your desire to kill and level up. One thing not to expect from Champions: RTA is a deep story or anything remotely original that you haven... Read Full Review

Oddworld Stranger's Wrath

Nominee for Game Of The Year

I'm already gonna say this is a definate contender for game of the year. Oddworld: Stranger's Wrath is an amazing game. Original enviroments, deep story, funny characters, twists and turns, and just about everything yo... Read Full Review

The Lord of the Rings: The Third Age

Not the LOTR rpg I was expecting.

LOTR: The Third Age is a letdown nonetheless, a decent game. I was hoping for a Final Fantasy like rpg, instead I got to fight....alot. It has a story but it is so vague, I couldn't tell it to ya if you asked me. Well ... Read Full Review

The X-Files: Resist or Serve

X-Files Lost Episode.

XF: RoS is mostly a typical survival horror game. I would recommend a play through for anyone looking for a decent survival horror game, though it's definately no Resident Evil 4 or Silent Hill 2. But if you are a X-Fi... Read Full Review

Gauntlet: Seven Sorrows

4 hours later and here I am.

It would really be something if Midway could make a really good Gauntlet title. Well this entry in the series isn't the worst but it falls short in a lot of places. Gameplay is pretty good, upgrades and leveling up wor... Read Full Review
