Microsoft Games
Top Spin
While tennis games have never been main stream, the success of Sega's Virtual Tennis has helped push them in the right direction.
Dungeon Siege
You're on your way to Stonebridge, though not by choice. After krug raiders killed your neighbors and set fire to your farm, however, it seems to be the only option left to you.
Outwars
You are an elite futuristic Marine protecting the universe from vicious hordes of aliens. This is not a 3D shooter, although it does at times have the feel of one; it is a combat simulation.
Bicycle Casino Games
Time to hit the ATM, pull out your life savings, amble up to the roulette table and put it all on red. Don't like roulette?
Jade Empire
To start, a solid story is developed with twists and turns that will keep you pushing well into the night.
Blinx 2: Masters Of Time & Space
You've got basic run, jump, grab and gun gameplay, mixed with some interesting time controls and a weapon that can suck up any nearby junk to shoot back at the enemy.
Microsoft Flight Simulator 98
So you've had a rough day. The boss is on your case, the kids are whining and the car's making that noise again.
RalliSport Challenge 2
No matter how you feel about Microsoft, it can't be denied that they produce some outstanding games.
Fable
I found the puzzle-solving aspect of this game interesting, and at times even unique.
Links 2003
In the past couple of years, console golf games have taken encouraging strides in competing with their PC cousins.
Deadly Tide
The game starts out with a nicely-done cinematic intro which leads the player into his/her role as undersea fighter pilot.
Starlancer
The solar system erupts in war! Eastern Coalition forces, led by the devious Admiral Kulov, have launched a surprise attack on the Western Alliance.
Links LS 2000
Whoever said that golf was a relaxing game should be slapped up side the head with a 1-wood, because in all my gaming adventures I never swear so much as when I’m playing Links 2000.
Kakuto Chojin
What starts out as possibly an intriguing fighting game simply stalls 6 steps into its sprint.
NFL Fever 2002
In this day and age, it goes without saying but I will say it anyway; this game carries all the NFL licenses allowing for real players, real uniforms and real stadiums.
MechCommander 2
There are three things that I love to do when playing video games.
Amped 2
First, you may struggle with the way this game controls, especially if you're used to arcadey sports titles.
Voodoo Vince
With the numerous bland and repetitive platform games released every year, it can be difficult to gauge the quality of the gameplay associated with them.
Halo 2 Multiplayer Map Pack
Tired of playing the same old Halo 2 maps over and over, but still not quite ready to let them go either?
Whacked!
What _Whacked!_ does offer is highly unique characters like a rabbit who had his feet cut off and made into key chains and an emaciated, narcoleptic guy who competes in a recliner.
Links 2004
Links 2004 offers the standard gameplay options but most of the single player features are focused around the career mode.
Rallisport Challenge
First, the game looks and sounds much the same, which is to say, fabulous.
NBA Inside Drive 2002
Basketball is perhaps one of the most popular sports currently practiced professionally in the US.
Microsoft Soccer
Goal! Not! Microsoft takes a stab at the world's #1 sport, and unfortunately misses high over the crossbar.
Mechwarrior 4: Mercenaries
Somehow, even when I think I've found the Mech game that'll end my need for these silly action games, providing me with a title that really, really sucks.
Dungeon Siege II
It is near the end of the Second Age. You have been hired as a mercenary by Valdis, prince of the North, to eradicate the enemies of his reign.
Hellbender
"Six years ago the Coalition of Independent Planets defeated their most fearsome enemy, a race of warriors they had created -- the Bions..."
Blood Wake
Betrayed. One minute you're calmly patrolling the Gulf of the Moon, thinking pleasant thoughts.
Microsoft Flight Simulator 2002
Flight enthusiasts have been using MS Flight Simulator for years and have watched it evolve from monochrome line graphics up to graphics so real..
Microsoft Golf 3.0
It's perhaps telling that if you visit the Microsoft Golf 3.0 website, one of the first things you see in the "Inside golf" link is the catch-phrase: "Adjust your grip on reality.
Links 2001
The benchmark in the PC Golf genre has always been the Links franchise -- it has all but dominated the PC scene until just recently.
Nightcaster
In a world of suffering, a hero will emerge. Hmm' that doesn't exactly rhyme.
