Daily Radar

A brilliant game that brings some much-needed variety to the PS2's lineup.

When you finish it's time for a ride and what a ride it is! Playstation makes you feel as if you are there taking each twist and turn with the console. This has to be almost as good as IMAX, without leaving your living room!

The control scheme is well designed, the interface simple, and the entire package is just a whole lot of fun.

Electric Playground

Provides a lot of gameplay, and while it can be a bit on the redundant side – which is a problem with the genre as much as this particular title – it does offer a diverse number of environments and themes.

Happy Puppy

It's not pretty, and the sounds may drive you batty. However, if you can get past the primitive and cutesy graphics, you'll find a fun and addictive experience that offers an enjoyable--and certainly more cerebral--PS2 experience that's currently unmatched.

This game is very fun once you get the hang of it, but it takes a die hard sim fan to give this game a very long life.
