There are too few Kodak-moments among the hordes of spawning Germans. (PELIT 11/04, score: 92*)Ĭall of Duty: United Offensive (Activision) feels like over-scripted shooting range. Hugely enjoyable! (PELIT 9/04, score: 92*)īurnout 3: Takedown (Criterion Software/EA Games) without a shadow of a doubt the best in the series and even one of the best arcade racing games to come out in years. The sole purpose is to cause as much mayhem and twisted metal as possible. Forget everything you have ever learned from other driving games. (PELIT 4/04, score: 79)īurnout 3: Takedown (Criterion/EA Games). If you make the mistake of claiming that this is better than Halo, I'd expect you to have some support for such claims. The authentic first person view and the strong scripted storytelling which it is based on force you to keep playing even after the repetitive gameplay and terrible control problems have caused severe carpet biting. But why is there no decent Pacific campaign, if the units are there? (PELIT 6/04, score: 88)īombastic (Capcom) is an excellent and suprisingly original action puzzle. It's actually better than its father, mainly due to the absence of monotonic random missions. (PELIT 6/04, score: 80)īlitzkrieg: Burning Horizons (Nival/CDV). (PELIT 1/04, score: 83)īlack Mirror (Unknown Identity/Future Games/Prelusion Games) is an atmospheric thriller adventure, which suffers from heavy linearity. (PELIT 2/04, score 90*)īilly Hatcher and the Giant Egg (Sonic Team/Sega) has a fresh and innovative touch on the cutesy platform genre. ![]() The only gripe with this excellent soft sci-fi adventure is the lack of subquests. (PELIT 1/04, score: 89)īeyond Good & Evil (PC) (Ubi Soft). There's some relatively minor graphics and loading related problems, but nothing too annoying. Excellent playability and a great skill system make Beyond Divinity shine, but what's the deal with the horrible voice acting? (PELIT 9/04, score: 85)īeyond Good & Evil (PS2) (Ubi Soft) is a very good action-adventure. Technically somewhat outdated, but the concept of combining action-adventure and role-playing works well. (PELIT 1/04, score: 75)īeyond Divinity (Larian Studios). Shame on you for the buggy, laggy release version! (PELIT 4/04, score: 85)īattlestar Galactica (Warthog/Vivendi Universal Games ) is smooth, but annoying space combat 3D-shooter. Make the next episode less linear (with maybe random maps) and you have a sure winner! (PELIT 1/04, score: 89*)īattlefield Vietnam (Electronic Arts) could have been more evolutionary, especially as the mods like Desert Combat and Eve of Destruction are so excellent. (PELIT 8/04, score: 86)īaldur's Gate: Dark Alliance II (Interplay) is quite possibly the best Diablo clone yet. Great game for a party, especially with a dance mat. (PELIT 2/04, score: 81)Īthens 2004 (Eurocom Entertainment Software/Sony) manages to provide just the right balance of traditional button bashing and skill. The plot, nice graphics and music, plus some imaginative weapons, keep you playing. ![]() The nice little shooter gets very repetitive towards the end and has surprisingly non-satisfying death animations. (PELIT 10/04, score: 85*)Īrmed & Dangerous (Planet Moon). Arena wars is a small, but very skillfully made multiplayer strategy that requires the reflexes of a cheetah and the mind of a chess player. An excellent first game from a small programming team. (PELIT 3/04, score: 82)Īrena Wars (ExDream/Ascaron). It's fun and simple to play, and the epic story is filled with interesting characters. (PELIT 9/04, score: 85*)Īrc: Twilights of the Spirits (Cattle Call/Sony) is a good, traditional RPG. A unique game that's a joy to watch and play. (PELIT 1/04, score 91*)Īnimal Crossing (Nintendo) demands major effort but, in the long run, it's worth it. ![]() Lots of new content, the addition of a perk system and a stylish new UI are pretty much everything one could wish for. A fantastic expansion pack that should finally give Anarchy Online its well-earned place as one of the best games in its genre. (PELIT 4/04, score: 73)Īnarchy Online: Shadowlands (Funcom). (PELIT 2/04, score: 91*)Īlias (Touchstone Television/Acclaim) has two major faults: the fights rely too much on button bashing and the stealth is almost completely optional. (PELIT 1/04, score: 84)Īirborne Assault: Highway to the Reich (Panter/Matrix Games) is a next- generation war strategy that goes straight to the classics category, with a medal. The racing modes are addictive, but there are a lot better trick based snowboarding games around, like Amped. (PELIT 4/04, score: 72)ġ080 Avalanche (Nintendo) is a decent update of the N64 original. hack//Infection (Part 1) (Bandai/Atari) offers a simple and repetitive action-RPG-experience in an imaginary online-RPG-world.
