686th played so far Genre: Action Platform: Various Year of Release: 2002 Developer: Ubi Soft Publisher: Ubi Soft Tom Clancy games have, in the past, left me with a bad taste in my mouth.

633rd played so far Genre: Role-Playing Platform: PC Year of Release: 2002 Developer: Gas Powered Games Publisher: Microsoft Game Studios I’ve been looking forward to playing Dungeon Siege for a while.

583rd played so far Genre: Action/Role-Playing Platform: Playstation 2 Year of Release: 2002 Developer: Level-5 Publisher: Sony Computer Entertainment Although billed as an action RPG, the main thing that stands out about this game before really playing it is that it is supposed to have city building elements.

520th played so far Genre: Platform Platform: Gamecube Year of Release: 2002 Developer: Nintendo EAD Publisher: Nintendo Somehow, Super Mario Sunshine is the mian series Mario game I’ve seen least of so far.

434th played so far Genre: First-Person Shooter Platform: PC Year of Release: 2002 Developer: Monolith Productions Publisher: Sierra Entertainment Spy movies can make for good games, especially with a nice bit of shooting – as we’ve seen in Goldeneye 007 before.
