    [Review Score = 110] What's significant about this convergence of audio, graphics and gameplay is that you are COMPLETELY IMMERSED in Zelda's world. Why? Because everything is meticulously thought out. Each character and event plays a role in a storyline that sprawls like a J.R. Tolkien masterpiece...It's certainly the game of the decade.

    Super Mario Galaxy is arguably the best game on Wii to date and is a must-have for almost everyone.
    • Metascore: 97
    • Critic Score 97
    Absolutely brilliant.
    • Metascore: 97
    • Critic Score 96
    One of the greatest games of all time. Bravo.
    • Metascore: 96
    • Critic Score 90
    It has all those essential elements that good games need, and all those elements are slightly less than perfect.
    • Metascore: 96
    • Critic Score 99
    More than a game, it's an experience that cannot be missed. This is the masterpiece that is Resident Evil 4.
    • Metascore: 96
    • Critic Score 99
    An artistic masterpiece... Anime-styled characters truly do bring out a wide new range of emotions that weren't possible previously in the Zelda series, which better connects the player with a relatively deep storyline. [Import]
    • Metascore: 95
    • Critic Score 100
    This is the greatest collection of games, ever, bar none.
    • Metascore: 95
    • Critic Score 100
    I would trade all of the PS2 launch titles for one copy of Majora's mask. Period.
    • Metascore: 95
    • Critic Score 100
    Not only immersive, but addictive. Once quest has begun, it will be near-impossible to put the controllers down until Link and Midna have saved the day.
    • Metascore: 94
    • Critic Score 91
    Ocarina of Time 3D succeeds largely because it does not tamper with the original title, striking the perfect balance between old and new content.
    • Metascore: 94
    • Critic Score 90
    Newcomers to the game who are accustomed to the current game generation may be turned off by its astonishingly short playtime and lack of "100% clear" bonuses, while veterans will find very little reason to pick up this version unless they're willing to pony up for the e-Reader cards.
    • Metascore: 94
    • Critic Score 99
    Practice makes perfect and EA Sports is bloody well as near as it gets. All of the AI holes, specific playbooks and overall tight feeling of the game comes across as a polished and excellent version of the best sports game out there.
    • Metascore: 94
    • Critic Score 97
    I haven't met anybody who hasn't wasted at least half an hour just running around outside the castle, sliding, jumping, stomping, diving, swimming... There are no enemies here and there's really nothing to do, but boy is it fun!
    • Metascore: 93
    • Critic Score 100
    But at the end of the day, no other game offers the wealth of content for a mere $50; and if early indications live up to their potential, we'll all be playing Brawl for another six-and-a-half years.
    • Metascore: 93
    • Critic Score 95
    The few flaws aside, the GTA franchise thrives on the system, with missions becoming more focused and a second screen allowing for easy PDA, or menu access.
    • Metascore: 93
    • Critic Score 100
    Hyper-intuitive gameplay, well-produced audios and visuals, and an extreme sense of style make for the greatest traditional fighting game of all time.
    • Metascore: 93
    • Critic Score 91
    The moments where the odd discordant cadence make us yearn for times gone by come a little too often, even though it's by far the greatest testimony and most successful game to fulfil the promise of one-to-one motion control. It's an apt swan song for our little white console, but ultimately it's flown a little too close to the sun.
    • Metascore: 93
    • Critic Score 97
    The new VFX system is something every gamer has been dreaming of and Capcom delivers with amazing detail and astoundingly smooth control. After only a year of waiting, Viewtiful Joe is not only everything you’ve been hoping for, it’s everything you didn't even know you should.
    • Metascore: 93
    • Critic Score 91
    Minor complaints aside, it's great to see an enhanced version of Cave Story available on eShop. The stereoscopic 3D adds a little depth, which is nice, and the game controls as wonderfully as ever. But once again, choosing the best version depends on personal preference.
    • Metascore: 93
    • Critic Score 96
    While said story may not live up to the expectations of most RPG fans, or fans of Super Mario RPG, it is far better and more interesting than the typical 'stories' you have to endure in a Mario game.
    • Metascore: 92
    • Critic Score 99
    Brilliant, stunning, the best thing on the GameCube since I dropped my soiled undies on it two months ago before I went to bed...It blows "Resident Evil" out of the water.
    • Metascore: 92
    • Critic Score 95
    The controls are beautifully fluid, that is once you get used to them. The learning curve on this title is difficult, especially if you haven’t played an SSX title before.
    • Metascore: 92
    • Critic Score 95
    The kind of game that sends reviewers thumbing through their thesaurus in search of new words to describe its greatness. I can honestly say that it’s as true today as it was the day of release.
    • Metascore: 92
    • Critic Score 100
    There’s no question. You must play this game, at least through the field training. It’s just so amazing.
    • Metascore: 92
    • Critic Score 100
    Marshall Faulk is the perfect cover spokesperson for this instalment as he embodies what 2003 is for Madden: steady, reliable, accurate, excellent, abnormally good… need I go on?
    • Metascore: 92
    • Critic Score 90
    Even if you have never even played SMW, it's still fun to go out and play one of the games that truly defined the Mario franchise. This is a great game.
    • Metascore: 92
    • Critic Score 91
    While the game might not be the greatest single player adventure we've seen this year, it very well may be the best multi-player one.
    • Metascore: 92
    • Critic Score 97
    An excellent title, and almost certainly the very best GameCube title to date.
    • Metascore: 92
    • Critic Score 95
    Once again props go out to Ubi Soft Montreal for meshing environments with an outstanding control scheme and stunning graphics.
