Xiaolin Showdown
Xbox Review
Start with a second-rate cartoon license. Add a dash of a bargain-bin party game, then stuff it inside half-baked 3D roaming combat and stir well. Finally, let the mix rot in the sun for a week. What do you get? Youd be half right if you said “something really icky,” but youd be totally on the mark if you said Xiaolin Showdown on the Xbox. Xiaolin Showdown is a four-player, free-roaming competitive fighting game (though youd be hard-pressed to tell by reading the blurb on the games ...

X-Men Legends
Xbox Review
Now this is more like it. Don't get us wrong, it's not like X-Men: Next Dimension was a bad game as such, it's just... No, hang on, that's exactly what it was. Anyway, the point we're trying to make is that if you're going to create a quality X-Men experience you don't want to be messing around with undiluted beat-'em-up gameplay. Nor do you want to split the mutants up and send them off on their own solitary quest (as was the case in the yawnsome Wolverine's Revenge). And as for Rogue And ...

X-Men Legends II: Rise of Apocalypse
Xbox Review
The sequel to one of the best comic-book games ever made, X-Men Legends II offers more of what made the original so much fun while streamlining some features to make it more approachable. The game is a dungeon crawler similar to Baldur's Gate: Dark Alliance and Champions of Norrath. This time around, the X-Men team up with their enemies to stop the menace of Apocalypse. In videogame terms this means running through a number of levels, beating the crap out of lots of little things, beating up ...

X-Men: The Official Game
Xbox Review
You know, for a while there, superhero games were experiencing a renaissance. Most of Marvel's heavy hitters, Hulk, Spider-Man and even the X-Men, have seen solid games that make excellent use of the license – but X-Men: The Official Game plays like a drunken blend of three separate games that can't get their act straight. Set in between the second and third films, you play through completely linear levels as either Wolverine, Nightcrawler or Iceman. Each handles extremely different from ...

Xyanide
Xbox Review
A fusion of 2-D and 3-D shooters, Xyanide tells the story of a cute manga-style witch named Aguira and an aptly-named Executioner sent to destroy her. But its not what you think: instead of fighting to protect Aguira, players are out to kill her. The opening cut scene shows Aguira headed for her intergalactic capital punishment. But before Executioner can strike the killing blow, the spaceship which houses Aguira is struck by an asteroid made of Xyanide. Xyanide causes a person's thoughts to ...
