Microsoft Reviews

Almost as soon as a few Halo screens hit the internet, people were touting this game as THE game to own when the Xbox finally arrived. Well, that time has now passed and how does Halo hold up to the hype? Read on to find out!

The launch of the Xbox brought several titles along with it, and unfortunately for most of us, one of those titles is 4x4 Evolution 2 brought to us by GOD Games and Terminal Reality. I wasn't a big fan of the first one, and the same goes for this one. I don't even know why it's called 4x4 Evolution, half the vehicles in the game are only 2wd.

Microsoft is not new to the football genre. In fact, NFL Fever 2002 is the sequel to NFL Fever 2000 on the PC. This series has always been average when compared to the Madden series from EA. However, Microsoft sought to transform this average game into a Super Bowl winner on the Xbox. The results may surprise you.

Well, Obi-Wan has finally arrived on the Xbox. Unfortunately he's a bit late, not very well prepared, and basically looks like a big dork next to the Xbox's killer launch line up. Sad, but true, Obi-Wan has the word "rushed" written all over it.

Ever since the release of the Mario Party series on the Nintendo 64, four player party games have been a hot commodity on all consoles. The PC has had You Don't Know Jack, the Playstation has had Crash Bash, the GameCube just released with Sega's Super Monkey Ball, and now Microsoft has their own--Fuzion Frenzy. These titles each have their strengths and weaknesses. However, if there is one element common in all titles it is the necessity for four players to participate in the game. If you are primarily a solo gamer or play with just one other buddy-you might as well stop reading this review and look to another title to fill your needs. But if you are looking for a party game where at least four people want to join in--Fuzion Frenzy will fit in perfectly to your gaming library.

All along here at CV-Games, I have made no secret about my love for the Dead or Alive series. So naturally, when I heard about DOA3 for the Xbox, I was excited. However, there was a point when I wasn't sure about getting the Xbox, but in the end DOA was too tempting and I caved. The Xbox launch has come and gone and I can firmly say that I have not been disappointed.

When the PS2 first launched, EA's SSX came out of nowhere and took the gaming community by storm. Just over a year later SSX Tricky has been unleashed on the masses.
