Dragon Ball Z: Budokai 2 - GameCube

Mediocre game on a Mediochre platform

Bad controls, Sloppy Gameplay, I'll wait till Budokai 3 comes out on Gamecube thank you very much. It's not that it entirely suxs, but even an online E.S.F. is better.

Mercenaries - Xbox

Playground of Destruction indeed

This game comes from a developer cranking out hot shot games: Pandemic. This game truly carries pandemics excellence. Enough, you want to know if the game is good, it's good. The sheer size of the game is only matched by your creativity. Bomb the wall or find a hole to sneak in. Destroy the helicopter or board it from 30 feet in the air. This game is yours to craft. There are some minor graphical hiccups and some missions where you think "not this again". But they will not ruin this game. It's a must buy and a must play.

Need for Speed Underground 2 - Xbox

NFSU3, It suxs

The game suxs so much that I'll never play it again, I find it disgraceful to not only the series but to gaming as a whole, The Races are always too difficult and U get tired of it quickly, Pick up Ridge Racer DS instead for a better racing experiance.

Fable - Xbox

Greatest RPG ever, HELL YEAH

This game was claimed as the greatest game of all time and for the first time yes. I now know that to be true. When I plopped this game in I thought, RPG ok I hate Final Fantasy so this game oughtta, but no. The sheer blending of Action and RPG makes me swarm to my Xbox. I also love the size of the game, can u ever find a game of this size besides maybe GTA (It is close), no. Being good or evil is like real life, good people have to work hard while bad people have a less stressful life. My only real complaint is the targeting which can be a little off, I accidently hit a guard and I payed the price, so besides that I love Fable and find it to be flawless. Play it now.

Metroid Prime 2 Echoes - GameCube

MP2, It delivers but leaves me wanting more

When I got Metroid Prime 2: Echo's (MP2 as I refer to it) from my local EB Games I was anticipating this game much like the first Metroid Prime and every other Metroid game from the first game for the NES. If you are a casual player of the series you probably will not mind the lack of many important things like the Ice Beam, Wave Beam, Plasma Beam. The new weird suits bewildered me, I'll take my Gravity any day thank you very much. But as a major fan of the series I am dissapointed, I approached the new Dark and Light worlds much like the introduction of First Person View to the series. But unlike that inclusion I'm not pleasently suprised. If I were to rate my anticipation of Dark Samus it would alone raise this score through the roof but no. Dark Samus is so simple and easy that in fact I see it as just a way to forward it's new multiplayer mode (which is so-so). In conclusion this game is cool and you'll probably play it's multiplayer for a while. But the lack of major Metroid dynamics makes this game just a weird game.
