I can only guess what CDM could have been if done with a larger budget. What I found most disappointing was the loss of the claymation feel and the sense of personality of each celebrity--in other words, the elements that make the TV show so memorable. This might have been bearable if combat was interesting and if you couldn't whip through the entire single-player game at video arcade speeds. I know games with longer learning curves than the entire play time of CDM. I wouldn't recommend picking this up unless you're a determined Celebrity Deathmatch collector.

We can only imagine what Celebrity Deathmatch could have been if it was done with a larger budget and a more refined gameplay engine. But not only did it skip over the elements that make the TV show so memorable in terms of its presentation, but it wasn't much fun to play either. In short, CDM isn't worth your time in the least -- leave it in the bargain bins where you'll find it.

Yes, the nigh-eternal foibles of cinematic horror games are still here, scattered about, but the product as a whole is still one of the best things going in horror gaming. Really superstitious and/or ADD-afflicted types might want to steer clear for their own special reasons. Everybody else with a reasonably high-end gaming rig, the residents of Silent Hill welcome you. They're just dying to have you.

Rainbow Six 3 is an extremely fun game that takes the basics gameplay of Ghost Recon that had everybody hooked last year and dresses it up with prettier graphics and lots of extra functionality. The co-operative gameplay options are outstanding and set the bar quite high for every online shooter on the way to Xbox including the mighty Halo 2. I enjoyed RS3 for hours at a time even though on the surface it just looks like a stripped down version of the PC game that came out months ago. But the game just keeps drawing you in with one feature or another until you're completely under its spell. As soon as you bored with giving voice commands to AI, you can hop online and play cooperatively. When you don't want to be friendly anymore you can stay online and cap anybody that's not you. When you're sick of that, you can go back to the solo offline game and perfect your command skills. You're first person shooting the whole time but you're loving it in different ways as often as you like. Relationships with real people should be that way, not videogames. This is one of the top Xbox Live games of 2003. Even if you have Return to Castle Wolfenstein in hot rotation, clear some space on your calendar and in your library for Rainbow Six 3.

Hunter the Reckoning Redeemer is a fun game that definitely should be played with friends. Of course, every game is more fun playing with buddies whether in person or online (now there's and idea!), but really this is the way Redeemer was meant to played. It's an upgrade over the original, but I'm not sure if it's enough of a boost to justify another purchase if you're not a true diehard fan of Hunter the Reckoning. The game does what it set out to do; it just wasn't trying to do too much more than the original Hunter the Reckoning. Improved visuals and new goodies certainly count, but there's a next level for this series that Redeemer just doesn't reach. Improving on the Gauntlet multiplayer concept was one thing with the original Hunter, but now that we've seen they can do it, there needs to be more.

Grabbed by the Ghoulies isn't a bad game, but it's far from great. If you were to picture the game's progression as a line graph, it would start as a shallow incline and then level out for the remainder of the game. Simply put, the game is very repetitive, and there aren't any landmark moments or climaxes to diversify the gameplay in any significant matter. And then there's the end of the game - which I'll remain mum on -- which really feels like a tacked-on segment, and is just plain silly. But what GBTG has going for it is some really great presentation; the storybook cutscenes, graphics, and sounds are very well done, and the simple controls make it a game that can be simply picked up and played by anyone. Is that enough to make the game a must-play? Not really. We recommend renting it first and deciding for yourself if being grabbed the ghoulies is something you enjoy.

The third incarnation of Tantalus' racing engine is definitely the team's best, and it's great to see that the team injected a lot of what was blatantly missing from its previous two racers. While it's not the best rally racer on the Game Boy Advance (the little seen Colin McRae still has this one beat in gameplay), Top Gear Rally is a very enjoyable racer that might be a little light in customization, but it makes up for it in all the tracks and challenges that you have to race through. There's an excellent amount of racing to be had here.

There is little left to say, except that you should already own both of these. And if you don't, Rockstar has just made it easier and cheaper to do. Now, do the smart thing and buy this PS2 bundle, for God's sake. The only reason you might hesitate is if you own an Xbox, in which case, by paying $10 more, you can acquire the bundle with slightly enhanced graphics, shinier stuff and hands that look less like G.I. Joe's Kung Fu grip. Scoring this game, I should add, is a weird thing. Especially when it comes to scoring two games with one overall score. I have used the highest score of the two games, because both games together, at this price, logically and by all other means, warrant it.

If you didn't like the first one, there's probably nothing new or different enough to pull you in this time. The love story adds some dramatic depth to Max's haunting story, and somehow makes what's going on more important and interesting. Wreaking havoc is nice, but it's great to also have a love interest complicating things, and Mona Sax is definitely up to the task. The visuals are excellent, the voice work is superior to what we usually get dealt in the action genre, and I only wish the game was a bit longer. A lot longer actually, but it's more because this kind of game is such a rare find than because that find is relatively meager.
