We'd like to give a full page review to all games, but that's not always possible. So, as a substitute we have provided this "Brief Review" section to help you determine if a game is worth your hard earned dollars. I know I'm sick and tired of blowing my hard earned cash on crap, and I'll bet that you are too.
At Xcessive gamer we know most new games cost 50 dollars or more. That's a lot of cash, and their not always worth it. As much as we hate to admit, we've all been ripped off by the gaming industry at one point or another. They advertise well, but when we get the product home we sometimes feel as though we've been taken. That's why we want to make sure you get the most "bang for your buck", So read below for the most accurate reviews in the industry.

Bug!
Released at a time when 3D was just in it's infancy.
This game didn't generate too much interest. It's not that it wasn't 3D,
because it was. It was just that it wasn't a roam anywhere game like most
newer 3D type games. I for one never saw the problem with this. Bug is
a cute, highly animated character, in a hugh game environment. Graphics
are rendered, and every detail was done to perfection. I suggest you give
it a try. Even though it's on rails so to speak, it still gives much freedom
of paths. I liked it!!

Cyber Speedway
Here's a great game that didn't get all the credit
it deserved. This was released at about the same time as Wipeout and that
game grabbed all the Headlines. If you ask me though, Cyber Speedway is
just as good as Wipeout. The graphics are great, and the speed is fantastic.
If you like this kind of game, and have a chance to pick this title up,
I suggest you do. It's really a great game!

Pebble Beach Golf Links (Sega
Sports)
This is one great golf game! Graphics, sound, gameplay,
everything works together well. We only had two gripes. 1) There was only
one course. 2) Ocasionally, you couldn't see where you were aiming. Besides
these two minor complaints, we were totally pleased. We think you'll like
it.
