Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six 3
Overall: This game is what Ghost Recon should have been. The targeting reticle is better, better graphics, better AI, better multi just a better game.
Gameplay: Whether you are running through the missions yourself, giving your team members voice commands to blow a door off of the hinges, bitching at your friends online in co-op mode because they just blinded you with a flash bang grenade, or bitch-slapping your friends in versus mode because you just you just gassed the room and they didn't have a mask on, this game is all that and a bag of chips.
Graphics: Splinter cell graphics with heat-blurring effects, awesome lighting, shadows, night vision mode, thermal vision and your buddie's character's lips move when he talks over Live -- awesome!
Audio: Dolby 5.1 makes this game's sound the best. You can hear people sneaking up behind you and around corners. The explosions are top notch as well!
Suggestions: Keep up the great work! Maybe make it so that we could shoot out the lights like in Splinter Cell.
Overall Score: 10.0 / 10 Nascar Heat 2002
Overall: I don't even watch NASCAR and I think that this game is great! The thrill off passing people at 200 MPH, inches away from them, is exhilarating! The system link capability puts this one over the top of its competition.
Gameplay: You don't need to like Nascar to like this -- you just need to like to drive fast and give someone just enough of a bump to send them into the wall. The controls are intuitive and you get to modify so many different settings on your car. There are different modes of play, so you can try to beat the different challenges, race a season, or just race a single race.
Graphics: The graphics are very good, not the best I've ever seen, but very good. The fact that skid marks stick around and smoke lingers adds to the realism. There were some issues on some of the bigger tracks where the background (grandstands) would be drawn only at certain distances from it.
Audio: The sound is what you would expect from a racing game -- noise when you bump, grind and crash. The pit crew talks to you and lets you know what is going on around you.
Suggestions: Include a build your own car feature and add custom soundtrack capability and you are golden!
Overall Score: 10.0 / 10 Jet Set Radio Future
Overall: A very graphically appealing game. The best cel-shaded game out thus far. There are a couple of quirks with gameplay and sound which kept me from rating it a '5'.
Gameplay: For the most part, the gameplay is solid -- stuff moves when you hit it, people dodge you, and you can grind on most anything. The controls are simple, but almost too simple. There is no skill involved with pulling off a trick....just button mashing. You automatically land everything and rarely fall down. A couple of things I didn't like were the times when I would try to grind in one direction and it would send me the opposite way. Also, there were times when I didn't want to grind on something, but since I was close, it made me do it. Finally, how are you supposed to quit a single player game to begin a multiplayer session? The only thing I could figure out is to turn the Xbox off and then back on....very annoying.
Graphics: Awesome cel-shaded graphics. It looks like you are playing in a real cartoon! Never once was their a slow down in framerate. Top-notch!
Audio: Most of the music was upbeat and seemed to add to the game....and then some song with some chick screaming about sugar or something started up. There definitely needs to be some sort of button to advance the music to something else, or the ability to play to your own music.
Suggestions: This game screams for the use your own music feature. Also, add some more skill based features to the game....not just button mashing to the beat with automatic landings.
Overall Score: 8.0 / 10
