Final Fantasy X-2
"Got the time?" "Yeah, X-2, X-2 your own damn business!" Can FF's first direct sequel rise above?

Final Fantasy VII Advent Calendar
It's a whole dang month of holiday fun in what is without doubt our stupidest feature thus far, presenting 24 historical writeups based on the greatest game of all time! 1997.

Super Mario 3 Special
It's the other GB Mario 3, the one Nintendo doesn't want you to know about. A little older, a little uglier and with that special Chinese touch.

October 19th, 2003 | GB Advance | Review
Super Mario Advance 4: Super Mario Bros. 3
Finally, vindication.

October 10th, 2003 | GameCube | Review
Viewtiful Joe
A loud, cel-shaded 2D action game about a movie freak that transforms into a Japanese-style superhero. Finally a game we can all relate to.

Disgaea: Hour of Darkness
Nippon Ichi's American strategy RPG invasion begins with this devilish title. Psh, your sword is only at level eight billion?

Tokyo Game Show 2003 Report
Our friend in Japan Andrew Vestal gives a brief account of this worrisome expo, plus pictures of a Canadian guy. No, not ours this time.

Square makes a triumphant return to Nintendo's turf with their most pleasant sequel yet.

August 31st, 2003 | Review | Xbox
Otogi: Myth of Demons
Sega grabs a From Software game that's beautiful, lasting and fun. Wait, who did you say made it...?

August 28th, 2003 | GameCube | Review
F-Zero GX
How can an unholy union produce such a promising sequel to one of Nintendo's own beloved franchises? Just kidding with the fanboy routine.

August 24th, 2003 | PlayStation 2 | Review
Silent Hill 3
Konami adds some girl power to its horror series, but unfortunately murderous hellspawn are gender-neutral.

August 15th, 2003 | PlayStation 2 | Review
Virtua Fighter 4 Evolution
Time to get back to the dojo in Sega's shiny new English version of VF4 Evo. Don't take our word for it, the box already says it's Great!

Resident Evil
Like a zombie in itself, the aged vessel of Resident Evil lurched onto the Saturn, gameplay intact. Dignity, not so much.

Hachiemon
A very... different brand of platformer reaches the GBA with Namco's TV mascot adventure.

August 4th, 2003 | PlayStation 2 | Preview
Gregory Horror Show
It's not quite Resident Evil, and for all we know that could be a good thing. Capcom transposes a quirky cartoon for this clever little adventure game.

Phantasy Star Walkthrough
What the hell has Alex been doing for the past three years? Slaving away over a hot Master System, clutching a bloodied graph paper notebook to his 8-bit heart.

Sega's oft-celebrated early RPG is celebrated once again -- by us, so you know it counts.

Metal Gear Solid 2: Substance
Our stupidly late review of the updated 2001 game of the year. We jam in the halfpipe with the Philanthropy boys and then some.

Castlevania: Aria of Sorrow
The next Game Boy Castlevania scores Konami a well-deserved hat trick. This guy's no Alucard, but he sure is wispy.

Nintendo's quintessential antihero gets a new portable adventure in crack and capitalism.

Super Adventure Rockman
It's a blast from the full-motion past -- though it was that when it first came out. We're compelled to try Mega Man's weird Japan-only sidestep.

Moji Pittan Advance
Quite possibly the most gaijin-proof game ever, yet it's so irresistible! A quick look at Namco's syllabic puzzler.

Hey, Square! Finished a remake of your classic RPG but you accidentally put it on a failed handheld? Time for Plan B.

The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker
When five billion reviews just won't cut it, we provide the five billionth and first. And don't worry, we promise not to use the word "Celda". ...Oops.

Doko Demo Issyo: Watashi na Ehon
Everybody's favorite Japanese kitty (the one you never heard of) engages in some literary cuteness.

Dynasty Warriors 3: Xtreme Legends
Piles and piles of disgraced Chinese soldiers... and then some! It's time for a standalone expansion to the rockin' and rollin' historical brawler.

.hack//Infection
An MMO game with players this smart has to be fiction. Can this new episodic action RPG live up to its cool concept?
