    • Critic Score 100
    It oozes with so much addictiveness that the storyline plays second fiddle and reminds you of a time when gameplay was an integral part of gaming. Put simply, this is one of the best games I have played in a long, long time. [Grade = A+]
    • Metascore: 97
    • Critic Score 100
    An insanely deep game that offers a lot to do outside of the 70+ missions. If you understand that it's just a game and that these selfsame actions are not healthy in the real world, you'll enjoy a well-developed world disguised as a deviously fun game.
    • Metascore: 97
    • Critic Score 100
    Surprisingly impressive. In fact, the enemy and ally A.I. is done extremely well. Even on lower difficulties, you'll find enemies give you a challenge.
    • Metascore: 96
    • Critic Score 100
    A triumph of epic proportions that is sure to go down in history as one of the greatest game sequels ever made.
    • Metascore: 96
    • Critic Score 100
    Probably the biggest strength of the game is the dungeons and your ability just to explore the immense world at hand. The dungeons are magnificently laid out and require a good bit of thought to successfully complete.
    • Metascore: 96
    • Critic Score 100
    Anyone who comes away from this game with anything more than a few nitpicky complaints should just give up videogaming, period. Everything that this game does goes above and beyond the capability of the current competition and will easily set a bar for quality for years to come.

    The graphics in the game are absolutely breathtaking. The Xbox has made the graphics from Vice City 10 times better with the lighting effects and the sheer power of the Xbox. Everything looks so vibrant and awesome. [Grade = A+]
    • Metascore: 95
    • Critic Score 91
    On top of the fine sound effects and voice acting is a soundtrack that's beyond amazing.
    • Metascore: 95
    • Critic Score 83
    While it is easily one of the most comprehensive and visually solid racing games to date, I found the fact that it's basically a repackaged "Gran Turismo 2" a little hard to swallow. If you can look past that, this is the game for you.
    • Metascore: 95
    • Critic Score 100
    A huge football game that fans of the genre should enjoy. There's lots here to do. In fact, the franchise mode alone should take you months to wear out.
    • Metascore: 94
    • Critic Score 100
    Demon slaying doesn't get any better then this.
    • Metascore: 94
    • Critic Score 100
    The music is superbly scored and goes a long way to set a mood. I ca not imagine playing this game without the soundtrack and any attempt to do so only managed to break the mood.
    • Metascore: 94
    • Critic Score 100
    Everything the original was but better. In fact, Ninja Gaiden Black proves to be one of the best action titles of this generation.
    • Metascore: 94
    • Critic Score 100
    UbiSoft is going to be hard pressed to beat it.
    • Metascore: 94
    • Critic Score 100
    This is the best offering of gameplay, extras and multiplayer that has come out in some time.
    • Metascore: 94
    • Critic Score 91
    The game balance is well done and the average gamer will find a lot here to enjoy.

    If you're a fan of Star Wars, you NEED to purchase this title. The gameplay experience proves to be as deep as the engrossing story and wonderful script.
    • Metascore: 94
    • Critic Score 100
    A complex fighting game that will take you a very long time to master each of the 13 characters.
    • Metascore: 93
    • Critic Score 100
    The execution of the voice communication, including eavesdropping and talking into the ear of captured mercenaries, makes the game all the more thrilling.
    • Metascore: 93
    • Critic Score 91
    It's as good as its nearest competition, "Metal Gear Solid 2: Substance," and in certain instances, like the deep realism and stronger focus on the action rather than story, is a better game.
    • Metascore: 93
    • Critic Score 100
    Unfortunately many people have been scarred by the abomination known as the "FIFA" series and so are unwilling to try the WE series which is a shame as this is definitely the benchmark of its genre.
    • Metascore: 93
    • Critic Score 100
    As great as the visual package is, the audio package delivers just as well. The voice acting does wonders with the well-written and witty script and the sound effects all feel just perfect.
    • Metascore: 93
    • Critic Score 100
    Probably the best 3D fighter on the market at the moment... Give it a try, watch your life disappear...
    • Metascore: 93
    • Critic Score 100
    The guys at Rockstar have really honed their ability to keep the missions fresh. They've managed to make each mission varied and complex without making them brutally hard.
    • Metascore: 92
    • Critic Score 100
    Everything SSX was, but better. Loading times are better, voice-acting improved, more tricks, new racers, improved tracks...
    • Metascore: 92
    • Critic Score 100
    With some of the most impressive graphics seen in a video game to date, combined with an extremely easy to use yet wonderfully deep control system, Prince of Persia is a rare gem that is sure to be included in every top 10 list for years to come. [Grade = A+]
    • Metascore: 92
    • Critic Score 83
    The game is so story-driven that it becomes excessively linear. This is not to state that other action titles are so much more non-linear, but Eternal Darkness tends to have only one path through the whole game.
    • Metascore: 92
    • Critic Score 100
    One of the best aspects of Advance Wars is the sheer amount of things you can do. If you choose not to play the Campaign mode, you can still fight and earn battlefields in the War Room, or can get friends together and play multiplayer on either one GBA or link up to four GBAs at one time.
    • Metascore: 92
    • Critic Score 100
    Super Mario Sunshine can be completed in roughly 20 hours with nowhere near the 120 Shines hidden in Isle Delfino. Completionists will want to go back and get everything, and considering how addictively fun this game is, I wouldn't blame them.
    • Metascore: 92
    • Critic Score 100
    Both the stages and characters show a grand level of detail and depth. Everything down to the facial features look spectacular.
