rest. Click here. |
| Independence War II Review (PC) |
 Infogrames gives us a
cinematic, epic space war game with brilliant graphics and a wonderful storyline. Independence War II suffers from some squirrelly
controls, but otherwise offers up first rate intergalactic action. Click! |

 Thank goodness for quirky
Japanese imports. Without them, our reviews would make complete sense. Capcom has brought One Piece Mansion to the US, and this wacky puzzle

Lady Sia Review (GBA) |
November 3, 2001 |
 TDK Mediactive
brings us a whole new wave of girl-power, and let us tell you -- it's not just for girls

Throne of Darkness Review (PC) |

a bizarre party formation system, and continually breaking weapons and items. We're gonna
have big fun the the Daimyo tonight. Click here. |
| Red Faction Review (PC) |

sweet. Welcome our latest addition, Eric, to the site by reading this review. Click here soldier. |

X-Men: Reign of Apocalypse Review (GBA) |
October 30, 2001 |
 Activision
brings us another X-Men title, and this one is not exactly satisfying. X-Men: Reign of Apocalypse takes the old
Double Dragon route -- sidescrolling brawler. Get the whole story here. |
| Atlantis: The Lost Empire Review (GBA) |
 It's odd timing,
but THQ has released Atlantis: The
Lost Empire smack between the movie and the DVD. Keep the fire alive? Well, we're

 Capcom brings us another
3D fighter, but this ain't no Power Stone. Heavy
