    It's broken, it's brief, and it'll only make you wonder "what if" every time you play it.

    There are times when the game is fun, but it simply fails to overcome its numerous shortcomings.

    Despite its relative good looks, Dead to Rights: Reckoning is more an exercise in frustration than an enjoyable diversion. Not even the four player WiFi deathmatch mode is enough to save this one from the bowels of the budget bargain bin.

    I really love how shallow this game is, but at the same time Namco should be ashamed for even releasing it since it obviously needed more time to cook.

    Imagine an aging Max Payne with debilitating rheumatoid arthritis, failing eyesight and prone to fits of epilepsy. That's what you can expect when you play as Jack Slate in Dead to Rights: Reckoning...This game gets no points for trying. Dead to Rights: Reckoning, in no uncertain terms, sucks.

    An abomination of a product that wasn't really all that solid to begin with. When a game that depends on a lock-on system and camera to deliver compelling action can't even get that right, it's just not worth playing, and Reckoning is the very definition of wasted money. Stay far, far away.
  8. Game Revolution

    Tough aiming, repetitive gameplay and totally uninspired story elements send the game into a downward spiral, one that ends with a very short single-player mode and few extras. This cop should be kicked off the force.

    The game is just great! This is a great action game, good graphics for a portable console. Here are cool locations. Passed in one day, and I do not regret the time spent. There are many in this game, to get as many weapons as possible. And most importantly, the plot. Here is just a great story! The ending will at least surprise you.Yes, although here you just need to kill different opponents, but you can use a different battle style. You can use weapons. You can punch (it is very difficult). You can kill opponents with a slow time. You can set your dog on the enemy. You can take a weapon from a somersault and kill the enemy. The game is very much like Max Payne, and it's cool! The game is cool, you can immediately see that they tried on this game. You will not regret!

    Игра просто отличная! Здесь отличная боевка, хорошая графика для портативной приставки. Здесь классные локации. Прошел за один день, и не жалею о потраченном времени. В этой игре много, афигеть как много оружии. И самое главное, сюжет. Здесь просто отличный сюжет! Концовка вас как минимум удивит. Да, хоть здесь и нужно просто убивать разных противников, но зато вы можете использовать разный стиль боя. Вы можете использовать оружие. Можете бить кулаками ( это очень сложно ). Вы можете убивать противников с замедленным временем. Вы можете натравить свою собаку на противника. Вы можете с кувырка взять оружие, и убить противника. Игра очень сильно похожа на Max Payne, и это круто! Игра классная, сразу видно, что старались над этой игрой. Вы не пожалеете!    … Full Review »
