It offers up quite an astounding amount of depth for such a pint sized fighting game and allows for some truly exciting multiplayer madness.

One of the few games that comes close to perfection. The gameplay is exciting and easy to learn, the graphics are phenomenal, the soundtrack is great, the extras are awesome… but the length of the game is painfully short and the skill level needed to get through it is minimal.

The overall mechanics found within Max Payne are solid as a rock. The control is efficient and tight, the graphics are drop dead gorgeous and the voice acting is totally immersive and wonderful.

For all of the items in Minish Cap's "Pro" column, there is but one item in the "Con" column: it's just too darn easy. The dungeons, though fantastically designed, are fairly small and light on monsters.

The game mechanics are very similar to those found in the original game and the storyline is tethered tightly to that found in the first game, but the advancements made in the game are worth the price of admission and if you haven't played the first, pick it up and this one, as they form two parts of one glorious whole.

In a world where driving titles such as Gran Turismo and Ridge Racer rule, Racing Gears Advance stands out as a breath of fresh air; a driving game that is simply out to entertain the masses with an incredibly developed sense of excitement and panache.

A very solid one player game coupled with a rock solid multiplayer frag fest.

With a great musical score, fantastic gameplay and great graphics (for the most part), this is one adventure you do not want to miss!

One of the best strategy RPGs I’ve had the opportunity to play.

I expected crap and was blessed with greatness. In my opinion, this is what "Dead or Alive Xtreme Beach Volleyball" SHOULD have been.

Crafted like a fine work of art, Otogi is a finely tuned title that never releases you from its grip. Though some may find it repetitive, the challenge of keeping yourself alive from level to level is simply exciting and fun.

Simply one of the best tennis games on the market. While it lacks a decent online doubles mode, the game still manages to provide an unbelievably fun arena in which players can engage in online play.

An exhilirating racing experience. Though it lacks the simulation style that I've grown to love, the game hearkens back to the days of games like Out Run and other similar arcade style racers.

It's not hard to fall in love with the gameplay, as it is solid and as instinctive as you can get... nor is it difficult to become enamored with the overall style of the game.

While it lacks a lot of actual scenes from the new film (it uses more footage from the Two Towers and the Fellowship of the Ring with Gandalf doing voiceovers), it still tells the final part of the story and will spoil many facets of the film.

Electronic Arts has finally created a James Bond experience that rivals that of Rare’s highly esteemed Nintendo 64 title, "Goldeneye." Incredible voice acting, thrilling Bond action and a competent and compelling storyline make this Bond title one of the best.

It's a very social game. This isn't a game where you'll be talking crap back and forth, nor is it a game where you'll be taking commands from a squad leader. It's a social event/game which is a lot of fun.

If you're looking for an action packed platformer, this isn't the game for you, but if you're in the market for a fantastic adventure that can be replayed as often as you like, than Pirates! may be your port of call!

It's an inventive creation that basks in some of the finest voice acting available, an incredible amount of visual pizzazz, and an incredible mixture of gameplay.

Filled with some of the most fluid graphics I have ever seen, tons of hidden items, easy to get into controls and a lot of just plain FUN, F-Zero's only real fault lies in its difficulty.

Weighing in at 6-10 hours, the game is short. However, veteran gamers will enjoy coming back to Wario World time and time again for the great graphics, sound and gameplay.

With gorgeous graphics and fantastic gameplay, Ultimate Muscle is ultimate enjoyment.

Fans of Mega Man's pure platforming adventures might be put off by the chip idea, while fans of the RPG Mega Man might not enjoy the platforming aspect. It's a bit of a catch-22. However, Capcom and Arika did a fantastic job of melding the two together.

An endearing and rewarding experience for those who seek the solace and freedom of world that is focuses on a weapons free, non-violent atmosphere and is easily the best game in the series to date.

With an astounding muscial score, amazing graphics and incredible gameplay, Ikargua is a gaming dream come true.
