I wish Grave was faster, had some cooler dodge moves, and the game played faster. So much style has all been squandered on a game that just doesn’t seem that fun to play after the first hour or so.

The problem is that it just gets old quick. Lots of enemies, attack, cure, wash, rinse, repeat. It gets old.

It’s not that the racers become increasingly difficult, it’s just that the game gets so much faster. Later in the game when you’re on a higher difficulty, it is almost impossible to tell where you’re going, and normally by the time you see a wall, you’ve run into it.

The sheer replay-ability and open-ended nature of Animal Crossing is what makes it so much fun to play. There are so many different things to do, so many bugs and fish to catch, and so much interior decoration.

A very blatant attempt at making the most money off of a license as possible. The idea of a dodgeball game isn’t terrible, but at the most it should be a mini-game within another game…not a full game itself.

Rather than something new (I’m really yearning for mechs that are a bit easier to control) it’s just the same thing again. Fans of the original will love it, but it’s not really reaching out to a new audience at all. I’m not seeing a lot of innovation.

The camera has been improved a good deal, although there are still a few times when you’ll be racking your brain and craning your neck to see where your character needs to go.

There’s a lot of attention to detail in the levels and environments, from weather effects to volumetric lighting. It all makes up for the simple character models and sometimes less than spectacular visuals.

The level designs are, quite frankly, ingenious. Featuring curves, ramps, narrow paths, moving platforms, and obstacles of all kinds, the levels are as awe-inspiring as they are frustrating.

The gameplay is where NFL 2K3 really shines.

One of the best survival horror games on the market, even giving RESIDENT EVIL a run for its money.

A fan's dream come true. The game is true to the series, and will quench any fan's thirst for a video game based on the series. I recommend that most action fans look into BUFFY. Even with some of the annoying faults, the game isn't to be missed.

The problem with the gameplay lies not in the mechanics, but rather the objectives. I literally got frustrated. I couldn’t figure out what I had to do at times because the objectives were too vague.

The sheer size-factor of the game is overwhelming.

Gameplay wise, the control is excellent.

It really has the biggest environments of any game that I've ever seen.

Tons of replay value, decent graphics, good sound, and a lot of fun.

While the gameplay seems like it’d be perfect for the "kill enemies, wash, rinse, repeat" syndrome, it never gets to that point due to some excellent pacing, not to mention that the fighting never seems to get too repetitive.

Making it more difficult is the fact that it felt to me like the Xbox timing was just different enough from the Dreamcast's to make it annoying.

The best Warcraft game, possibly the best strategy game, released yet.

Leaves the feeling of mediocrity in your stomach after playing. Its fun, it’s enjoyable, but it gets old fast.

The sound is incredible, though. With some of the best music I've ever heard in a videogame, the game is haunting and chilling in all the right places.

The graphics are decidedly mediocre. It looks better than a PlayStation One game, but not by much.

While the game is pretty fun, it can become very frustrating. At times, it seems your character doesn’t want to swing his light saber in a certain direction, or misses a jump you know that you hit, or just hits something in the 3D level that didn’t look like a mine.

With the incredible soundtrack and the emotions that the game invokes, Frontline is one of the best games of the year.

Breaks the cardinal rule of videogaming… it isn’t fun. And despite everything else, the graphics and franchise mode, the gameplay breaks the title.

Another Lucasarts game that cashes in on the Star Wars franchise name. Fortunately for us, it’s a good game.

The biggest downside to the game is that it is very deep and does require a lot of patience. For instance, after you complete your turn, you have to sit through the computer’s entire turn. After a while this can get tedious, especially in a long battle.
