David Beckham Soccer is a failure on every level. The AI is laughable, the controls are limited, the graphics are muddy, the sound is non-existent, there is no way to save, and virtually any player above the age of six can win the matches without any practice at all. When I picked up this game for the very first time, I won 14:1 without even knowing the controls. It's almost like the goalie in this game discounted the chance that a player would approach the goal at an angle. Perhaps a link-up game against a human player would have provided some much-needed challenge, but since the game is devoid of a multiplayer mode, the only way to enjoy David Beckham Soccer is to not play it.

Advance Wars is as brilliant as they come on the Game Boy Advance. The game isn't this action-packed button-mashing thumb-buster on the system, but Advance Wars is incredibly intense and amazingly addictive...especially when you learn every little nuance of the game design. Single player mode is a challenge in itself, but when you get another player (or three) into the battlefield, that's when you see just how versatile the game design really is. The learning curve has been addressed with a well-designed and integrated tutorial mode that must be completed in order to gain access to the rest of the game. I hesitated giving this game a perfect 10, and decided to knock a single tenth of a point simply due to a problem in the link cable mode. Since it's turn-based, the players who are not involved sit and watch the player in charge making his move -- it would have been extremely helpful to add a function to let these players check on their troops during the move...especially when enemy forces are moving into their territory. In single player mode, the computer AI moves so fast that you wouldn't have much time to check your stats anyway...but when you're sitting idle after a turn, your mind should be working strategically, and to not have the ability to see your troops' status is a bit annoying. But that's really the only true complaint I can make about the game. Advance Wars is an absolutely brilliant design, and a title that absolutely deserves a place in your Game Boy Advance collection. It will be amazing to see this series continue in the states, simply because the design is near perfect as it is. What could they possibly do to the game to make it better?

So is Rally Trophy the equivalent of Grand Prix Legends? Probably not, but it is a superb game that offers an unusual alternative to the more technology packed offerings like McRae and Pro Rally. The faults are few and the game is so challenging that you're unlikely to finish it and discard it in a short time. Rally Trophy is a niche game that won't suit everyone's tastes, but neither was Grand Prix Legends and I hear that game did fairly well!
