RalliSport Challenge 2
Theres something extraordinary about this game that I can't quite put my finger on.
For some reason my Xbox hates this game and gives me a disc read error after 15 minutes but this game is awesome! Not since Rally Cross for the Playstation have I played a Rally game and if any of the other bargain bin o... Read Full Review

Project Gotham Racing
Fast arcade action with a splash of something old and something new.
My Xbox doesn't like this game, I've done my research and have found no known bug that locks the game up when you unlock the Porsche Boxster but this has happened to me with 3 different discs, either way I still enjoy th... Read Full Review

Project Gotham Racing 2
Bargain bin racing game, what could go wrong?
It took my a good while to review this one due to an internal issue with my Xbox but now that this game plays just fine, heres the review! Project Gotham 2 has a better layout in my opinion than the first, this starts... Read Full Review

Mercenaries: Playground of Destruction
Another bargain classic you must own!
I try to see a game to it's finish and when applicable I get 100% before I write up a review but with this game I've seen just about enough, this time in a good way! While my game collection shows, I'm not shy about owni... Read Full Review

TOCA Race Driver 2: The Ultimate Racing Simulator
Another mess I'd rather not clean up!
Again! I find myself at the breaking point with yet another game of the same series, this time it's TOCA Race Driver 2, and from the start I should have know I was headed down the wrong path when it states "Gamespot 8.8"... Read Full Review

TOCA Race Driver
A sloppy mess you might want to walk around.
I try to see a game to it's finish and when applicable I get 100% before I write up a review but with this game I've seen just about enough! I was looking for a more current game to fill the void left by TOCA for the ori... Read Full Review

FlatOut
This game is Flatout awesome!
What can I say about this game that hasn't already been said? The creators of Flatout have taken racing to a whole new level! This game takes really great driving physics, extremely great damage modeling and gives you th... Read Full Review

Sega GT 2002
Not the best, but nowhere near the worst.
When I did my bargain bin rounds I found this game and figured for the price I'd give it a shot. At first it's much like Gran Turismo which it's painfully obvious this game borrow heavily from, as you start with a limite... Read Full Review

The Simpsons: Hit & Run
Exactly like a G Rated Grand Theft Auto!

Grand Theft Auto Double Pack
Grand Theft Auto 3 and Vice City in 1 Pack, need I say more? I will!
GTA 3: This game is simply awesome, taking the first city from the original Grand Theft Auto game and bringing it to 3D was a great idea! Though your character's movements are a bit stiff everything moves fluidly. Cars r... Read Full Review

Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell
Even at $1.99 this bargain bin game is a toss up.
I'm no pro at the stealth style genre but I've played plenty of others and they don't seem to be anywhere as misleading as Splinter Cell. This game is loaded with cool gadgets and stealthy moves but the obstacle course y... Read Full Review

True Crime: Streets of LA
True Crime: Streets of LA is full of action but all the wrong kinds!
Once again I find myself reviewing a bargain bin classic, or so I thought. I'd done the standard research and thought for the price I couldn't go wrong and was indeed just that. True Crime Streets of LA tries to mix diff... Read Full Review

True Crime: New York City
Could be better, but not as terrible as some say!

Midnight Club 3: DUB Edition Remix (Platinum Hits)
Great Racing game, yet again Rockstar sets the standards others SHOULD follow.
Lets face it, without Rockstar video games would still be a linear path from begining, do stuff then game over. With Midnight Club Dub Edition Remix I have to say this bumps most other racing games down in my book. The g... Read Full Review

DRIV3R
Even this Driver fan has to disagree! No can do in Driv3r.
I've been a fan of the Driver series since it first came out and even with the slow frame rates in the 2nd game it was still fun, not only the missions but to get out of the car and do all that allowed (ie: Carjacking an... Read Full Review

Juiced
Combined terrible controls with AI that the rules never apply to you're just not going to enjoy this game.
I thrive on bargain bin games and thought with the mixture of reviews this game could over come any preconceived notions I had about it. Wrong, the Gamespot review hits the nail squarely on the head. This game is boring ... Read Full Review

Driver: Parallel Lines

Forza Motorsport
Cheating and sometimes overly agressive AI really drags down the overall fun.
I read review after review and was really excited about the prospect of playing what's deemed "The best racing sim for the XBox". I own many other racing games and I'm a huge fan of racing sims of the Gran Turismo vain. ... Read Full Review

Saints Row
Saints Row is overall a bit buggy, yet still worth playing!
Saints Row is obviously yet another GTA inspired game. It starts off letting you create your own character which is quite unique and a fresh step away from the standard open world games. You're quickly set into the gang ... Read Full Review

Stubbs the Zombie in Rebel Without a Pulse
Stubbs the Zombie is enjoyable, sometimes funny and most notably extremely too short.
Stubbs the Zombie in Rebel without a Pulse follows around a Zombie who, at first, you don't understand his mission or at least I didn't. But as the game progresses you start to put the pieces together. This game has the ... Read Full Review

Gran Turismo 3 A-spec (Platinum)
Sometimes "check your bargain bin" isn't a bad thing!!

Test Drive: Eve of Destruction

Just Cause
Beyond the very few flaws and the sometimes completely illogical scenarios, Just Cause is a great game!
Just Cause is another sandbox style game, yet it takes that and amps it up quite a bit, sometimes in a good way, sometimes in a bad way. Just Cause is set in a series of islands known as San Esperito and you're set in as... Read Full Review

IHRA Professional Drag Racing 2005

Reservoir Dogs
All in all, it keeps true to the movie as much as possible. Worth a check in the bargain bin.
Reservoir Dogs is based on the movie but doesn't stray from it like other games seem to do. The game feels like a mix between Grand Theft Auto and Splinter Cell as the missions are straight forward yet pretty basic and u... Read Full Review

Fable: The Lost Chapters (Platinum Hits)
The added content pretty much makes this a "Director's Cut" of Fable.

Darkstone: Evil Reigns
Though I never played the PC version, I assume this one can't measure up given the PS limitations.

The Italian Job (Platinum)

L.A. Rush
Compared to the other games out there, LA Rush doesn't have enough freedom or characteristics to stand out against them.
