After watching The Devil's Own, I wasn't surprised to read that it had to go through late rewrites and was rushed, because it feels incomplete. Pitt was originally going to be the sole lead, but once Ford was in, the script had to be changed to elaborate on his story. The ideas are here but it just feels like it's missing some depth and minor parts of the plot that aren't fleshed out more. 2.5-3/5.

This is a stock standard west coast, mobb music affair. From the rapping through to the production, everything is decent but in a genre and time period with so much amazing west coast hip hop, this definitely doesn't stand out from the crowd. As songs like 'Fuckin' Wit Banks' tell, Banks had beef with Pooh-Man, but after checking out his '93 album, Judgement Day, after I did this, there is no doubt who the better rapper is; Pooh-Man. The topics and songwriting offers very little, if any, originality too. Best Tracks: Streets of Oakland, The Drunken Fool, Hard as Hell

I gave this a couple of spins and little caught my attention. I've never thought the rappers in this group were amazing and some of the topics, like talking down mainstream rap, have been done to death, despite their lyrical claims to be so unique. By a few minutes into a number of the songs, I'm over them. Best Tracks: Much More, He Comes, Rock Co.Kane Flow

These days it's rare for me to put as many minutes into a game as I have with this, so I think it deserves a decent rating. It makes you want to keep trying. It's not as polished or deep as the similar 'Stuntman' on the PS2, but it is definitely more accessible and forgiving compared to the challenging aforementioned game. While there are only 16 short scenes/chases to get through, you will be repeating them many many times to complete the varying objectives. For example, for one scene, you may need to collect a number of icons, blow up cars, compete the scene with in a certain time, do barrel rolls, and stay above a speed for a certain amount of time. It's quite the challenge to achieve more than one or two in one run, so many retries are required to get enough points, that each objective gets you, to unlock the next scene. Disappointingly, after looking forward to controlling an F1 car, the final scene is just a video and the game doesn't let you play it. If you enjoy mission based driving games, you'll get some fun from this XBOX exclusive. Gameplay 3/5 Graphics 3/5 Sound 3/5 Difficulty 4.5/5 Originality 3.5/5

A nice album, but too many songs come and go for me without reaching any memorable points to rate it higher. I love R&B that builds up but this isn't that type of R&B. If you like Janet Jackson, D'Angelo, Maxwell, Frank Ocean and prefer vibey R&B/neo-soul that doesn't need to change too much from start to end, you'll enjoy Groove Theory more. 'Good 2 Me' is my pick from the disc with its contagious hook. 'Tell Me' was the big hit thanks to the 'All Night Long' sample by Mary Jane Girls, that has been sampled on countless songs, but there are a number of better songs in my opinion. A high 3/5. Best Tracks: Time Flies, Come Home, Good 2 Me, Angel, Boy at the Window
