Choosing Death- Review

February 28, 2005

A book about the “who”s, “where”s, “what”s, “when”s, and – most importantly – “why”s of a movement that won our hearts and gave us a place to belong.

X-Men Legends – Review

February 28, 2005

Part squad-based strategy and role-player with a whole lot of button-tapping fisticuffs, Legends succeeds because of enthusiasm for the subject matter.

Tony Hawk’s Underground 2 – Review

February 28, 2005

While it retains all classic, zero learning curve, highly improvisational, and brutally challenging skateboarding madness, something soured with Underground.

Spiderman 2 – Review

February 28, 2005

Great first impression and occasional flashes of brilliance are scattered throughout a game that grows boring in spite of extreme inventiveness and likability.

Rome Total War – Review

February 28, 2005

Half brain-twisting turn-based empire management, half heart-stopping real-time battle simulator, Rome condenses 300 years of history into a single experience.

Rainbow Six – Black Arrow – Review

February 28, 2005

The levels take place all over the world, not just the Middle East. Environments are bigger, brighter, and more colorful than the predominantly industrial ones seen previously, and include a subway terminal, ancient ruins, and a fancy hotel. Terrorists are considerably smarter, love their RPGs, use hostages as human shields, and exhibit considerably more interest in survival.

Jak 3 – Review

February 28, 2005

The third (and supposedly final) installment of the Jak trilogy is strong enough to forgive a main character plucked directly out of a Mountain Dew commercial.

Halo 2 – Review

February 28, 2005

Retains its predecessor’s smooth and intuitive control scheme, but adds vastly-improved level design, better weapons, a more complicated and interesting plot.
