Review – Spy Hunter (Console, 2001)
Suffer a tale of hormones. Learn of the shocking link between Spy Hunter (2001) and Beetle Adventure Racing. See a review score. It's all here in this nail-biting look at Midway's attempt at refreshing an (at that point) 20-year-old arcade game.

Review – WWF Betrayal
The Monday Night War had just wrapped up, the WWF had reached new heights, we'd just seen some of the best wrestling games of all time hit the market, and Wayforward released one of its own. That's a great build up, it's just too bad WWF Betrayal is garbage water.

Review – Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 3
I don't recall if the buzz around the series was dying down by the time we hit Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3. The market was certainly beginning to flood. But regardless of public perception, Neversoft was somehow able to take the same formula and make it even more fun.

Review – Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 2X
Before Tony Hawk's Pro Skater HD and before Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 1+2, there was Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 2X. I'm finally getting around to trying this Xbox exclusive, to compare it to what came after. What I've learned is that I expected too much, but at least it's THPS2.

Review – Army Men: World War: Final Front
I'm still reeling from the punishment inflicted by Land Sea Air. However, I still had faith in the World War sub-series of Army Men. Thankfully, Final Front isn't nearly as bad as LSA, but that bar was set pretty low. Weirdly, this isn't actually the final game in the series.

Review – Star Wars: Rogue Squadron II: Rogue Leader
Star Wars and I have a rocky relationship. Had, I should say, it's over now. But back in the day, I was all about that galaxy far, far away. Star Wars: Rogue Squadron II: Rogue Leader hit before disillusionment set in, but how will I look on it today?

Review – Super Dodgeball Advance
Oh, I was so totally pumped for the Gameboy Advance release. A total Nintendo fangirl at the time, I was drooling over the new handheld, as well as the impending Gamecube. When release came, I scooped up Tony Hawk Pro Skater 2 and Super Mario Advance, but those weren’t the only games I was excited for. Another was Super Dodgeball…

Review – Pikmin
Nintendo has maintained a reputation as a company that never releases new properties. The common thought is that they only constantly rehash their staples: Zelda, Mario, and some others that variables that change over time. That’s never been very accurate, and it seems to be a little less repeated these recent years, but to demonstrate how long this belief has…

Review – Mega Man X6
From my perspective, the Mega Man X series has been in constant decline since the launch of the first game. Each game is just slightly worse than the last, and with X5, that decline seems to have picked up speed. Considering I count Mega Man X as one of my favourite games of forever, it’s sad to suddenly feel like…

Review – Mega Man X5
We’re starting this review off with some spoilers about Mega Man X3, because this is important. We need to talk about the series’ plot and this is the perfect place to do it. So, sit back and let me complain for a minute. At the end of the SNES trilogy of X games, there was always a text crawl that…
