    Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare

    Modern Warfare weaves great storytelling with intense combat, coupled with a solid and rewarding multiplayer experience.

    Rising Sun is damaged by linear levels and uninspired gameplay that falls short of the quality of its predecessor.

    Medal of Honor: Rising Sun

    Rising Sun is damaged by linear levels and uninspired gameplay that falls short of the quality of its predecessor.

    Trying something unique, EA ships players out to the Pacific to fight a new battle. While fighting on Japanese soil is a nice change, Rising Sun smacks you with brain-dead AI, blocky environments, and flat-out boring ga... Read Full Review

    Need for Speed: Carbon

    Carbon brings back the fast paced racing from Most Wanted with a few minor improvements, but there’s also a lot missing.

    NIghtfire mixes a solid singleplayer with a great multiplayer to make one of the best bond games since Goldeneye.

    James Bond is a unique character; he's serious about getting the job done, but he has a sense of humor. He appeals to women with his good looks, yet every guy wants to be as smart and cunning as he is. This is the James ... Read Full Review

    Battlefield Vietnam

    Vietnam takes the Battlefield formula, takes out features, puts in a couple of small additions, and calls it a sequel.

    From the second I started playing Battlefield 1942 I wasn't able to put it down. The well-balanced weapon sets, the mildly entertaining campaign mode, and all the unique maps kept me playing for hours on end. When I he... Read Full Review

    Half-Life 2

    Half-Life 2, like its predecessor, distinguishes itself as one of the best first person shooters to ever hit PC.

    Half-Life 2, being the sequel to the revolutionary Half-Life, had high expectations. Now that Half-Life 2 is released all those expectations have been met and exceeded. Half-Life 2 takes whats great from many other pop... Read Full Review

    Need for Speed: Most Wanted (2005)

    Most Wanted keeps the best features from the series, throws out the scraps, and adds in exciting new content.

    Need for Speed: Most Wanted is the sequel to the some what dissapointing Need for Speed: Underground 2. Although, this time EA went all out, and the result is an excellent combination of the Underground series with the ... Read Full Review

    Call of Duty 2

    Call of Duty 2 is an intense and well made sequel, but it fails to improve on the high standards set by Call of Duty.

    It hurts me deeply to give such a well-made and well-polished games just a 'good' score. Don't get me wrong Call of Duty 2 is one of the most intense shooters ever, there is only two things in its way of FPS nirvana. T... Read Full Review

    Star Wars: Battlefront II

    Battlefront 2 balances the game-play and puts in exciting, new features, which add up to an excellent experience.

    It’s a great feeling to be sitting at the top of the world in a huge AT-AT or destroying the Gungans on Naboo. These moments are what made the original Battlefront so entertaining. The second entry creates more of thes... Read Full Review
