Comments[]
Civilization V - 92% - David Brown
As good as Civ ever was, with some interesting new additions and, better yet, no more stacks o' doom. A worthy series update.
Pro Evolution Soccer 2011 - 83% - Dave James
It may take a while to find them, but delve into PES 2011 and you'll discover its great - if unfortunately hidden - depths.
R.U.S.E. - 86% - Dave James
Appealing to both the single and multiplayer real-time strategist, although R.U.S.E. will be a hard mistress online.
Dead Rising 2 - 73% - Henry Winchester
The zombie chopping is great fun, but Capcom hasn't put enough effort into making it look and feel like a proper PC Game.
