Pros Good FPS everything, vehicles, good multiplayer mode ;-)
Cons Lots of "been there done that", system requirements, progress saves only last...
Recommended it? Yes

Pros New maps, weapons, vehicles and of course, the online play
Cons Um...kinda hi specs, 56kers
Recommended it? Yes

Halo…you could call it the game that made the Xbox what it is today. It remained exclusive to Xbox due to a deal Bungie had with Microsoft. With all the money made from Halo, naturally Microsoft would want it on windows and mac to bring the Halo franchise to an even larger audience. I was a... Read full review »

Simply Marvelous To The MAXIST!

Pros Rich Graphics, Detail, Sound, Hours of Gameplay
Cons Slow load times.
Recommended it? Yes

From time to time, we all here the phrase, "There's no need to reinvent the wheel!" or "If it isn't broke, don't fix it." Apparently Maxis, thinks outside the box, and beyond the norm and has decided to reinvent it's hit game "The Sims" with it's new offering "The Sims 2".
