    You're better off playing 'GRID'

    Project Gotham Racing 4

    You're better off playing 'GRID'

    I decided to wait till the price dropped to $20, since I found that PGR 2 for XBox was quite mediocre. And yet the franchise is one that always gets a great deal of hype from the websites and magazines…. Unfortunately... Read Full Review

    'Test Drive Unlimited' meets 'Mad Max'

    Fuel

    'Test Drive Unlimited' meets 'Mad Max'

    I think the other reviews give a good picture of the game and what you can expect, so I just will weigh in with my thoughts after ~ 15 hr of play: -FUEL is not Codemaster's attempt to create a 'Motorstorm' – or 'Pure'... Read Full Review

    An ambitious port that misses the mark

    Test Drive Unlimited

    An ambitious port that misses the mark

    I was really, really hoping that the PSP version of “Test Drive” would be THE great racing game the device has been looking for since its inception. Unfortunately, TD:U on the PSP is yet another port that simply doesn’t ... Read Full Review

    Even patched, STALKER is a joke

    S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Shadow of Chernobyl

    Even patched, STALKER is a joke

    Hasn’t anyone wondered why “PC Gamer” magazine, home of the “WORLD EXCLUSIVE FIRST REVIEW !”, hasn’t uttered a peep about this game ? Could it be their advance copy was so riddled with bugs and unplayable that the editor... Read Full Review

    An entertaining game despite some real flaws. Pick it up if you like Old School RPGs, and if the price has dropped.

    Two Worlds

    An entertaining game despite some real flaws. Pick it up if you like Old School RPGs, and if the price has dropped.

    The mediocre reviews this game received made me decide to wait until 1. A patch was released for the PC version; and 2. The price dropped by 50% (or more). So when I saw it advertised at Best Buy for only $20, I went ahe... Read Full Review

    Improves on the original and worth picking up

    Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon Advanced Warfighter 2

    Improves on the original and worth picking up

    When GRAW was released in March 2006 it got quite a bit of praise from the 'professional' gaming review media. In actuality, this had less to do with how well or how poorly GRAW performed as a game, and more to do with t... Read Full Review

    Like a 'Thief' game on steroids- give it a second look !

    Dark Messiah of Might and Magic

    Like a 'Thief' game on steroids- give it a second look !

    After the mixed (or even dire) reviews given this game when it was first released, I thought it best to wait until the price had dropped and the necessary patches had been released. Now that I have played “Dark Messiah” ... Read Full Review

    Not much to see and do

    Hard Truck: Apocalypse

    Not much to see and do

    The last ‘car combat’ game I played on the PC was “Bandits: Phoenix Rising”, which was mediocre ( mainly because it lacked a mid-mission save function). With “Auto Assault” fast going down the tubes (it gets the plug pul... Read Full Review

    Interesting concept, but gameplay tends to get stale after the first 12 - 15 hrs

    Overlord

    Interesting concept, but gameplay tends to get stale after the first 12 - 15 hrs

    In general, I shy away from RTS games on consoles. There tend to be too many control problems, or the inability to save mid-mission (the 'Kingdom Under Fire' series on XBox and 360 comes readily to mind as a series of r... Read Full Review

    Armed and Dangerous

    A fun third person shooter offering Brit humor

    I played the PC version and found it to be a lot of fun so when I saw the XBox edition available for $5 I picked it up to see how well it played out on the 'big screen'. The answer is: pretty good, overall. However, you ... Read Full Review

    Disappointing followup

    World Racing 2

    Disappointing followup

    A big disappointment. Synetic obviously tried to address criticisms of 'Mercedes Benz World Racing' in the 'professional' gaming media by incorporating bits of Burnout, Project Gotham, Need For Speed, and Forza in their ... Read Full Review

    A miserable port, save your money

    Resident Evil 4 (2005)

    A miserable port, save your money

    Save yourself $20 and avoid buying this game. Even by the standards of console ports it’s a real turkey. Ubisoft / Capcom obviously put out as little effort as possible to tailor the game for a PC, and as a result it’s u... Read Full Review

    The best racing game you can get for a next gen console

    Colin McRae: DiRT

    The best racing game you can get for a next gen console

    DiRT is the best racing game available for any next-gen platform. It's superior in gameplay and user-friendliness to any franchise churned out by EA ('Need for Speed') or Bugbear ('Burnout'). What makes DiRT so good ? ... Read Full Review
