Overall: The game is a great with gameplay that can keep you busy for hours. You get 2 games for the price of one. Theres custom soundtracks. And your free to go out and kill, steal cars.Gameplay: The gameplay is just plain out fun. Its like your living in a different world.

Smashing Drive
Overall: Its just like the arcade but im sad to say its not a game that will grab yout attention for a longtime. yes theres powerups and things that make it interesting but its still dull. graphics arent that great either.Gameplay: I mean i picked it up for a few bones other than that that why im not feeling bad. But i feel sorry for a person who picked it up back when it was 50 dollars. Id say this game is worth 5 bucks. Because there no soundtrack addition, no more than three taxis.
Graphics: Same as the arcade nothing more nothing less. What makes me come to the point and think why did they even waste there time.
Audio: You hear a horn, and you get some sound effects from the power ups and that about it . A custom soundtrack would help in this department a little.
Suggestions: If Your gonna come out with a game add something interesting not just make it a straight port and a boring one at that.
Overall Score: 5.0 / 10
Deathrow
Overall: This has to be the most creative game ever made. Its a mix of sports with fighting. this is one Hell of a fun game, with alot of teams. And if your a person who likes it for the multiplayer u enter the code and unlock everything. the graphics are nice. and the sound with soundtrack makes it even better.Gameplay: The gameplay is fun and is a kinda game that you should put in when a group of your friends come over. theres scoring plus fighting. What more does a person want??
Graphics: graphics are pretty good for a game like this. The framerate is smooth and nothing interefers with the fun
Audio: Sound is pretty good with alot and i mean alot of cussing this is a game that you wouldnt not get for a child but other than that put your own soundtrack and kick ass

SSX Tricky
Overall: This game is nothing but an arcade racing gaming with decent graphics but thats it. The graphics are a straight port and will keep you in disgust. The gameplay didnt appeal to me as muchGameplay:
When getting this game i was thinking i was gonna get the same thing i got out of amped but i was wrong. Theres high jumps you can do some tricks but i never got to pull of the good ones.
Graphics: The graphics look like a straight port. In other words its UGLY. The snow looks like a sheet of paper, comon with the power of the xbox i expected more.
Audio: Theres nothing really special about the sound. Youll get sounds of players talking or sounds of the jumps but nothing special.
Suggestions: Better graphics, more tricks, and xbox live
Overall Score: 7.0 / 10
Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell
Overall: All i have to say is WOW. Best looking game ever created. And having even better graphics makes it Game of the Century. Walking around and sneaking up on people, hiding in the shadows. climbing roops. Its seems almost like a movie.Gameplay: NoThing better than to sneak around on people and knocking them out. This game is a challenging game which is good. Shooting out lights and turning your night goggles on to see. What more can a person ask for. BEST GAME EVER
Graphics: The way the developers did the shadowing system is unbelievable. This is the part of the game that will keep your mouth open in shock
Audio: The sound is great, sneaking up hearing your boots make sound. Sounds of guns is pretty good. Only problem is the voice acting
Suggestions: Nice Job
Overall Score: 10.0 / 10
WWF Raw
Overall: Beforing getting my Xbox this is one of the games i was hyped up for. But when it came out and just left an ugly taste in your mouth and it didnt live up to its hype.Gameplay: The gameplay was just messed up. The game got old really quickly because there was no good seaon mode, the CAW mode sucked, not alot of match types. And some of the things that were promised in the game were taken out like blood, fighting in the crowd, and fighting in the backstage areas. If you have friends over its a nice game to pick up and beat the ish outa each other.
Graphics: This is prolly the only thing going for this game. the wrestlers look prety good for the most part. Other player look like they got there face boiled oe something.
Audio: No commentating and songs to listen to so basicly its just a wrestling game. The sound enternaces for the wrestlers was pretty good.
Suggestions: FIX everything, take out all the stupid stuff like a dresses. And add modes that will make me actually care. Add more modes and if possible make RAW 2 xbox live.

Halo: Combat Evolved
Overall: If you got an xbox you MUST have or get his game as soon as possible. This game was GAME of the YEAR for a reason and believe me you wont be disappointed.Gameplay: This game has everything a FPS fan would want. YOu get a good variety of guns. Vehicles from Tanks, to warthogs to a ghost. Up to 16 players can play or 4 on one xbox
Graphics: Good Looking graphics with different looking enemies. Nice looking vehicles . and the best looking maps around
Audio: Each gone us its own kinda soun. The enemies cry and scream depending on different enemies. greay game
Suggestions:

TimeSplitters 2
Overall: This game is an amazing multiplayer game. Alot of characters and maps to choose from. And what i liked about it, is it reminded me of golden eye for NIntendo 64Gameplay: Alot of fun to play with some buddies or alone. You can play all the maps that are available or you can create your own map with the map maker. The only thing that needs to be fixed is the aiming
Graphics: Well is ok nothing special, so far i havent seen any slow down or anything. In other words it will keep u happy.
Audio:
Guns firing, rockets exploding, your typical fps game. Its good sounds for this kinda game and wont keep you unhappy
Suggestions: XBOX live, better graphics and fix the aiming system
Overall Score: 9.0 / 10
Project Gotham Racing
Overall: When i got this as one of my first xbox game i was impressed with the graphics alot. The game was more of a challenging racing game by the use of Kudos points.Gameplay: What made this game challenfing is that you had to get some kudos points to win some races, sometimes it was fun sometimes i didnt like it. Theres a good amount of cars but should have been alot more. But the gameplay is nice and thats whats important.
Graphics: The graphics on the cars were pretty good. The only thing i didnt like about the graphics is that the building seemed flat.
Audio: The sound is nice, you can listen to your own soundtrack or just listen to the ones in the game with the engine and everything on.
Suggestions: Fix the way the biulding look, More cars and i cant wait for the next version with xbox live.
Overall Score: 9.0 / 10
Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six 3
Overall: This game is game of the year quality. The gameplay is some of the best out there. With thermal vision, night vision and a bunch of guns. The graphics are from the splinter cell engine which makes the game look great. Playing on xbox live will make you play this game forever. Gameplay: This game has everything to make a good tactical shooter. This game is a close combat shooter. But running around with your head cut off wont help you. You have to use strategy with your team. Some of the weapons in the g ame will help you. Like the flash bang wgich will blind your oponent for a few seconds if flashed in there face. You can crouch but it would have been better if it was possible to lay down on the ground and shoot down your enemy like flies :)
Graphics: With the Splinter Cell engine what do you expect. The graphics are great. Some of the character look kinda stiff. The maps look great. But for some reason if you got a sniper and you zoom into something it looks kinda jaggy. BUt overall you will be impressed with this department.
Audio: This has the best sound I have heard in a game. IF you turn up the volume it will seem like its real. From Grenades exploding, to machine guns firing this game is great. Plus now with a headset you can talk to your computer allies and give them commands which works really well.
Suggestions: More Maps, More Guns, SPlitscreen action.

ESPN NFL Football 2K4
Overall: Overall This game is a great sequel to 2k3. The gameplay is smooth, The graphics are awesome and commentary and features seals the deal. There is a glitch that i noticed that should have been fixed but I wont go into detail.Gameplay: From Running the ball to passing the Ball its just like the real thing. You can Challenge plays. There is alot more jukes in the game. The players actually hold on to the ball more unlike 2k3. Overall a great sequel.
Graphics: This is where the game shines. The graphics are really good. All the players look as good as in real life. When playing it looks alot smoother then the pass series of the game.
Audio: Well its a football game and all you will be hearing is commentary and players getting smacked. So the sound is good and will fill your need for a great football game.
Suggestions: Add download content so you can use it online instead of just offline. Put different looking fans. It gets kinda boring looking at the same people in every game.
Overall Score: 9.0 / 10
State of Emergency
Overall: When i went to nlocl buster and rent it i knew that the PS2 version didnt do that well, so i said what the hell it has multiplayer so ill just check it out. The game is just fun with decent graphics.
Gameplay:
I like the fun that i had shooting people and blowing up shops and what not. Its just a pure fun game. It might get old because you basicly do the same thing, but if you have friends over and want a beat up game this is one to look at, and 20 dollars just makes it more perfect.
Graphics:
Well it looks a little bit better than its ps2 sister but not by much. With all the people and chaos on the screen the framerate runs pretty good.
Audio:
Hearing people screaming and running is pretty good but it might get annoying, so what you do is put your own soundtrack and kill people while listening to it
Suggestions:
Its a good solid game, add live support to it, with some better graphics and more tactical gameplay and the next version should be good.
Overall Score: 8.0 / 10
Amped: Freestyle Snowboarding
Overall: One day when I was walking at sams i looked at the xbox section and found this game priced for 20 bucks. So i picked it up and and went hime to play it and man have i been surprised. Im not a snowboarding fan but this game will mame you love the sport with all the tricks and the best looking graphics out there.
Gameplay:
As i stated this game really surprised me. The tricks are so awesome and just keeps you wanting to keep playing without getting bored.Even if your not a snow boarding fan this will appeal to anyone.
Graphics:
The graphics in this game have to be the best out there at the moment. The snow looks so real. The animations are awesome. Only problem i has was get and going through pipes would and sometimes the trees turn invisible.
Audio:
While playing this game you can put your own custom soundtrack or just listen to your player going down the hill with players mocking you and giving you props.
Suggestions: Nice work, this game has really impressed me. I cant wait for Amped2 now
Overall Score: 10.0 / 10
NFL 2K3
Overall: This is the best football game out there, and xbox live makes it even better. The visuals are the best , the players look all familiar and the sound is pretty good.
Gameplay:
This is where the game stands out. The tackeling and everything in the game runs prett smooth and is really good. Only problems you might have is the animations that they do that will screw you up on defense
Graphics:
The visuals are stunning. The stadiums look like the real thing. The players and stadiums look nice. Only probelms i have is to try and make the snow look better, it looks ugly lol
Audio:
Its nothin more nothin less it sounds like an ordinary football game. The commentators add some life and sounds pretty good. Players mocking and sounds of tackles will keep you off your seat.
Suggestions:
Fix the animations for God's sake, even better graphics and stop the !&%$@#* cheaters online.
Overall Score: 5.0 / 10
MechAssault
Overall: This is a reall fun game. You get to see loud and nice explosions, at the same time destroying the city and other mechs around you. The graphics are pretty good and the explosion puts you right into the action.
Gameplay:
When i first got live this was one of the games i was inticapating. You get to destroy other mechs and talk trush at the same time. The single player mode is decent and isnt that hard. When you finish the game you unlock 2 mechs. The only thing that p*ssed me off about the game is that there is no lobby online.
Graphics:
The graphics are pretty good. The explosions look nice. There is some glitches where you can get stuck in building but other than that its a good looking game.
Audio:
Nothing like having a sound system in your house with this game. The explosion are awesome and the shooting of lazers and missles just adds more quality to the sound.
Suggestions:
Add a lobby for xbox live
Overall Score: 9.0 / 10
MotoGP
Overall: When I first saw this game i thought it was just another moto racing game but boy was i wrong. This game has the full package from graphics to gameplay. When your racing you actually feel the since of speed and what makes it better is you can listen to your own sound trackGameplay: I was really impressed by the way this game played. Riding ur bike was kool. You can make your own customized bikes. It wont take you that long to unlock everything in this game. It will prolly take you 2 to 3 days but its worth it, and playing with your friends makes it even better. Xbox live made this game even better, because you can race with 16 other people
Graphics: The weather, sky, bikes, grass and tracks all look like the real thing. Theres not difference at all just that one is real and another is in a video game. graphics are a the best
Audio: Sound is good, hearing your engine and what not, or listening to your sound track . It would have been better if you could hear your driver curse or something when he falls of his bike
Suggestions: Nothing Keep up the good work
Overall Score: 5.0 / 10
Unreal Championship
Overall: Thi game from its sister port Unreal championship. In some aspects is was good and some of it just made you feel like what happened. This game was really hyped before xbox live came out and i gotta admit i was one of those people waiting to get my hands on it. Framerate problems were one of the problems of this game, and the graphics could have been much better.
Gameplay:
The gameplay isn special its basicly an in your face first person shooter. This game is only good for multiplayer if you dont got friends or dont get friend s to come over or dont have xbox live dont get it. my probels with the game was the framerate problems, especially on the outdoor maps. Xbox live game this game alot of life because without it i dont think it would have sold that much. Dont take me wrong this game has some good things going for it like, guns, maps, and characters. I think theres also a patch coming out to solve the framerate problems. But the framerate wont go wild , if tou got a good server, and not on the outdoor maps.
Graphics:
Personally i dodnt see something that made me say "WOW". The graphics are ok to me .Nice looking multiplayer maps and what not. so to some it up ill give it a 4
Audio:
Same thing with the sound there nothing special. You'll hear taunts when you get killed by an oponent online or against the computer. Guns have nice sound and explosion to them . So its basicly sounds like a regular fps.
Suggestions:
Upgrade the graphics. Fix the framerate, and ill be a happy man.
Overall Score: 8.0 / 10
Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon
Overall: This game has to be the best xbox shooter game on xbox live. Ordering ur soldiers what to do. If you like running around shooting people this nt a game for you. What makes you win in this game is team work. Telling other peeps where an ememy is and closing on him and killing him or her is and awesome experience.
Gameplay:
Gameplay in this game is what puts it on top. Theres different weapons for your likeings. Yo can be a sniper and get back and pick people of one at a time. You can attack by picking an assault rifles for close combats. You can be a demolition expert and and help ur team by put sensors dont pick off ur enemies. If you are gonna play for your first time the developers put a radar to show you what direction your enemies are in, but after tou maste rthe control and gameplay, the radar will be lame and you will take it off and play like everybody else. The replay value for this game is sky high, You will never get bored of it, cause theres so many things you can do that will keep you busy. Especially and mostly on xbox live. This game has alot of great values but you also have to point out the bad things about this game and i will help you recognize them. First off this game has so many glitches it isnt even funny. Im not gonna state them all, because xbox live doesnt need anymore cheaters who will abuse it but ill state one. If u go under a house or cabin and stand up u can see everybody but they cant see you which will make it easier to gather points but its lame and should be checked over by the developer. With all that said this game is a must have if you got xbox live and will keep you busy for a long time.
Graphics:
This is where the game falls short. The graphics arent DOA3 or Ralliesport challenge graphics. But the gameplay aspect is whats important to me and im happy to dsy i have ignored this part of the game, but still wish they can do a better job in the next version of the game.
Audio:
When you play this game you better keep the volume high because it will suck you into the game. Sounds of guns, explosions and envoronment is so chilling. The sounnd is good
Suggestions:
Fix the graphics and make it xbox standered
Overall Score: 9.0 / 10
Capcom vs. SNK 2: EO
Overall: This game has come a long way from the dreamcast to the Ps2 and and Gamecube and no the XBOX. There has been little change to the game. But what made this a high selling point for xbox is that it supports XBOX LIVE. The graphics arent up to XBox standereds but the gameplay with xbox live will make u look over that.
Gameplay:
As i said this game hasnt changed it has all the characters from capcom like Ryo, Ken ,Sagat, Blanka. So you'll feel right at home with old school fighting. On xbox live you can challenge people accross the world from the U.S.A all the way to Japan. This makes the replay value for this game 5/5. only problem you would have is that you will get people online that might just exit the game while ur beating them and not giving you the win.:(
Graphics:
For not taking advantage of the xbox power and just being a port wont help the visual score. but graphics isnt everything so hopefully the gameplay will let u ignore this part of the game.
Audio:
The Sound isnt anything special either, it has the same music over and over and over. It will get pretty boring listening to it all the time. And sometimes when you do a special move the music will get cut off.
Suggestions:
Start over and do this game from scrap and this time take advantage of the system. Mybe a Capcom vs SNK vs Marval will be a good idea ;)
Overall Score: 5.0 / 10
Rallisport Challenge
Overall: This has to be the best racing game on xbox in every aspect. The framerate runs smooth, the graphics are top notch and the replay value is like for ever.Gameplay: I like the since of spped in it, it makes u feel like ur actually in the car. Probably the only problem i got is that u cant change the colors of the cars you pick. You have alot to unlock from cars to tracks. Also i would have liked if the car didnt automaticly resit and put u on the track. It was annoying because it didnt seem as relistic, but otherwise i love this game
Graphics:
The Graphics has had me in shock and awe. Its just so unbelievable how much detail they put into working on the cars and tracks. Theres desert, snow, downslopesand everything and it makes you think how the graphics will be in the future. This game truley shows off the powers of the xbox.
Audio:
The sound is pretty good. The cars engines sound just about right and what makes it better is that you can have ur own sound track to listen to while your kicking friends asses :)
Suggestions:
Keep up the good work. And make Rallisport 2 xbox live and ill be happy, and take the automatic resit thing off
Overall Score: 10.0 / 10
FIFA Soccer 2003
Overall: This game is truly what soccer is all about, its so addicting, u have to actually pass to score, it aint no game u just play wit one man and score all day, and visuals , and sound are really good, Where in the hell is xbox live support?Gameplay:
Best game play u have to pass to get down the feild, and when ur running fast u dont have that much control over the ball just like in real soccer. Shooting free kicks is awesome and easy to score after u get use to it.
Graphics: Visuals are awesome, the stadiums look perfect and the players look awesome, some could use some better texture and looks, but its not a let down, it could be done better tho
Audio:
if ur a real soccer fan turn off the commentary and listen to the !&%$@#* crowd u will theink ur at the world cup watching brazil beat germany, it awesome. The commentary reminds me of fifa world cup.
Suggestions:
If u have friends u will be playing this forever, Xbox live support should have been added but it wasnt and it was a real let down, THe next fifa versions need an option where u can have a penalty kick matchs, create players and teams, and xbox live and then it will be an Awesome package
Overall Score: 9.0 / 10
