Torus' Pitfall game attempts to improve on what Activision tried on the Super NES and Genesis a decade ago (and what Majesco ported to the GBA for a launch title) in Pitfall: The Mayan Adventure. There are far more references to the Pitfall brand, and a lot more variety in gameplay in Pitfall: The Lost Expedition, but the majority of the game's development revolves around a slightly flawed side-scrolling design that needed a bit of tweaking before it shipped. Other than that issue, Pitfall Harry's latest adventure is a fun, lengthy, if just a little generic one on the handheld.

In general, Jack the Ripper is well done adventure story. The story is intriguing and engaging. While more puzzles would be expected for games of this style, there are enough to make it a game and the plot is enough to push you through the tale. Good graphics, fantastic sound effects and a believable narrative mean this is a title to be added to your point and click library, should you be a fan of these games. If you don't enjoy adventure titles, this one isn't going to make you a believer though.

Is Carmen Sandiego: the Secret of the Stolen Drums worth your hard earned cash? Well, if you’re a major fan of the television show and PC games, then no. If you’re a gamer looking for sweet platforming action, then no. Thing is, there are other platform action-adventure games out there. If you’re out for an engaging adventure chock full of personality, action and light stealth elements, then head toward Beyond Good & Evil. If you want a history lesson, then crack open a book. The Secret of the Stolen Drums warrants a rental if you’ve played and finished Sly Cooper and the Thievius Raccoonus, Super Mario Sunshine, Beyond Good & Evil, Jak II and other such platformers. It may also entertain the kiddies for awhile. Otherwise, simply rent it if you’re curious.

It's great that turn-based strategy games are starting to come back. Sure, it's not a huge renaissance but it's something at least. Given that most of us got into PC gaming based on our love of X-COM, Civilization, Master of Magic, et. al. I think we're all happy to see some quality titles in this vein. That's particularly true on the tactical side of things where the roster of good games is limited to old standards like X-COM, Jagged Alliance and, to a lesser extent, Fallout. I'd put Silent Storm just a step behind those other titles purely in terms of its overall ease of use and the fact that the World War II setting is getting kind of tired. The destructible environments and nice 3D graphics go a long way towards bringing this genre up to speed in terms of technology, of course, and that definitely works in its favor. Since most turn-based gamers aren't as concerned with particle effects and such, the real selling point is the strong and sophisticated tactical system.

Since I can remember I've been a Capcom whore. And I wanted to like AM badly, but in the end I'm left with a sour taste. It looks okay, has some nice cars and visual effects, but the most important aspect of this game is missing -- the control mechanics are seriously unrefined. Sure, try to convince me that this is a "drifting" game. Maybe that will convince me that the control isn't beyond help. Honestly, control is always what makes or breaks a game; in this case it's done the latter. I'm really sad, too, because this could be a nice sideways, sliding romp with some cool cars. A bit of advice Capcom, kill the announcer--he should have been shot after MVC2 and fire the tuning designer, too. Get someone in there who can fix the damn control.

Basically what you're getting here is some fun, diverting online and LAN multiplayer for $19.99 (for the expansion pack alone, not the full package including Black Hawk Down). The lack of controllable vehicles is a downside, but you also get dozens of maps that can be tons o' fun with enough people. The longer sight lines make for more challenging gameplay, and the large servers allow a dynamic that makes every round a different experience. The single player game, however...it needs work.

You get that I really don't like this game, right? Having already waxed critical regarding the game's worst features, I feel the need to add this final thought: Though games are a separate medium than television, the key to successful licensing lies in adapting what makes a property cool as you move from one medium to another. In the case of Monster Garage, the developers have eliminated the personalities and blank-slate design decisions that make the show worth watching. Worse still, the designers have simply reproduced challenges from the show virtually ensuring that anyone who might have the least interest in this game won't be surprised by any part of it. The only monster is this garage is a flagrant disregard for fun.

F:BOS is a fun, if flawed, hack'n'slash game that provides a good 10 hours or so of shooting, explosives, and plenty of mutants to dig into. The lock-on system enhances the action and makes things more exciting even if the poor camera work tries to work against you. For a change of pace, all of this action takes place in a toxic Mad Max environment rather than the usual AD&D world with mythical creatures and fanciful spells. If you want a good adventure to have with a buddy, F:BOS is a good choice even if it does feel a bit rushed. The music was barely worked on and the camera could have used a lot of fine-tuning, but there's still a lot of beasts to button mash your way through. If this type of action appeals to you, this is far from the be-all-end-all, but a worthy entry in the genre of action games with a bit of an RPG flavor.

Though not nearly as groundbreaking as the previous titles Afrika Korps definitely adds another layer of refinement to the series and offers up some intriguing battles in some new areas. At this point the game is in dire need of better graphics but, beyond that, it's still the best PC wargame on the market. I find it hard to resist the urge to keep playing even as other games find their way onto my desktop. The few tiny discrepancies that have found their way in won't bother anyone except hardcore purists (who make up an astonishingly large percentage of the game's audience). Whatever inconsistencies they are in the Orders of Battles are easily forgivable given the scope of the project
