    The end-all, be-all of console action games. Period...For me GTA3 is the best action game I have ever played on a console system and I highly recommend it to adults (the intended audience of this game) who know the difference between good and evil.
    • Metascore: 97
    • Critic Score 98
    One of the best console games I have played this year. It is that good. The online gameplay is fast with no lag or hiccups.
    • Metascore: 90
    • Critic Score 95
    A flat out brilliant game...This is another addicting game that you very well could lose sleep and miss work over (I should know, I’ve done both).
    • Metascore: 96
    • Critic Score 95
    A great game not only because it surpasses MGS1 in terms of graphics, sound, and control, but because it offers new and innovative gameplay.
    • Metascore: 97
    • Critic Score 95
    One of the most engrossing games I've ever played in my entire life.
    • Metascore: 76
    • Critic Score 94
    Though the game starts out a little slowly, with crabs and goblins as your primary foes, the action picks up after a few levels and soon, the creatures you're fighting will alternately frighten and excite you.
    • Metascore: 89
    • Critic Score 93
    A massive, open-ended game that allows the player to do what they want, when they want...The type of game you can play for six hours straight and not even realize it.
    • Metascore: 89
    • Critic Score 92
    A tad on the short side (under 20 hours), which I could overlook if some multiplayer support was included, but other than that small complaint, I thought the game was nearly flawless.
    • Metascore: 86
    • Critic Score 92
    I haven’t laughed so much, nor have I had so much fun playing a game in ages.
    • Metascore: 85
    • Critic Score 92
    Project Gotham gets harsh when you start going for gold. This game's liable to have you tearing out your hair and bawling like an infant with regularity. You'll wonder how on earth your competition managed to take that turn faster than you did, in a budget car that's far inferior to your performance-bred steel.
    • Metascore: 85
    • Critic Score 91
    Utilizing an enhanced version of the Unreal engine complete with a custom particle system (among the other additions,) the game is quite simply breathtaking – probably one of the best visual uses of the engine to date.
    • Metascore: 87
    • Critic Score 91
    With the two new character classes, fifth act, powerful new monsters, outrageous new magic items and craft system, the LoD will make you lose sleep, neglect your family’s needs and even miss work from playing it. It’s just that good.
    • Metascore: 86
    • Critic Score 90
    A game of amazing polish and humor, which translates into pure fun.
    • Metascore: 87
    • Critic Score 90
    If you've ever wanted a fast paced sports game that's top quality, check out NHL 2002. You could buy it just for the new commentary alone, but there are so many more reasons.
    • Metascore: 71
    • Critic Score 90
    It has enough Eye Candy to satisfy the picky 3D futuristic racing fan and an addictive quality that leaves you wanting to play “one more game” just to see if you can top your last blisteringly-fast speed.
    • Metascore: 88
    • Critic Score 90
    Visually, Tribes 2 will make you wet yourself with joy (that is, if you are lucky enough to own a fast computer) and you'll be treated to some breathtaking special effects.
    • Metascore: 81
    • Critic Score 90
    What makes this such a compelling feature is that you actually have different sets of units, heroes and buildings for each of the epochs, translating into over 200 different combat units, structures and era-appropriate historical heroes to command your armies. To say that Empire Earth has a lot to offer is an understatement.
    • Metascore: 85
    • Critic Score 90
    The graphics are in-freakin-credible, the sound is top-notch, the level design is beautiful, and the action is non-stop.
    • Metascore: 91
    • Critic Score 90
    An incredibly appealing spectacle that is ahead of the majority of other titles in the genre...The detail and flexibility of the engine allow for some captivating set pieces and cinematic cut scenes, which move the story along excellently.
    • Metascore: 91
    • Critic Score 90
    This is the kind of game that made me believe in the bright future of gaming, and at the same time, strengthened my belief that we're still far off from the level of professionalism needed to boost this form of entertainment to a more prominent cultural level.
    • Metascore: 89
    • Critic Score 90
    It's far and away the best third-person action game I've ever played, boasting an involving (if occasionally cheesily-told) story and pulse-pounding gameplay.
    • Metascore: 87
    • Critic Score 90
    The cartoonish environment, though small, abounds with hidden desirables and fine detail-blaring propaganda, rich reflections and shadows, site-specific music, assorted visual gags-and even minor characters, unlike Paris and Ashton, possess crisp, individual personalities.
    • Metascore: 82
    • Critic Score 89
    A great RTS that is fun to play. Something refreshing in a genre full of boring clones and mediocre sequels.
    • Metascore: 89
    • Critic Score 89
    The storyline is as good as - if perhaps better than - "Warcraft 3" in parts, and the various multiplayer modes and the strategy of the different sides combined with the various gods add up to a good deal of longevity.
    • Metascore: 87
    • Critic Score 89
    I loved it! It made the hours fly by like minutes...Once you get used to the interface and become more efficient at positioning the camera just right, you'll soon become totally addicted to this title.
    • Metascore: 89
    • Critic Score 89
    You feel like the most clever person on the planet when you're able to bring in three parts a day, slaughter a few frogs, and birth seventy Pikmin without breaking a sweat...what is there is enormously fun.
    • Metascore: 88
    • Critic Score 88
    The game really kicks ass. While it may not be "the next big thing" in the mmorpg genre, it's a genuine (and in some cases very attractive) alternative to games like "EverQuest."
    • Metascore: 87
    • Critic Score 88
    While Serious Sam may not reinvent the first-person shooter, Croteam did a great job of taking the genre back to its roots, making one of the most action-packed games since "DOOM."
    • Metascore: 85
    • Critic Score 88
    Visually, the LithTech engine does a good job in powering the alien's claustrophobic wall-crawling movement and does a great job rendering the predator's many modes of vision.
    • Metascore: 80
    • Critic Score 88
    It’s very fast paced, yet strategic at the same time – as such, it requires lightning fast decisions to be made in order to be successful. Many action gamers, as well as strategy gamers, will enjoy it.
