    Even without a huge diversity of modes, there are worse ways to spend $10. [Dec 2009, p.81]

    There's not much wind behind the sails of this oceanic combat game.

    From the simple gameplay to the overused pirate stereotypes, Yo Ho Kablammo just isn't a very original game. Sure, you don't usually have to fire your weapons sideways -- but that's more frustrating than fun.

    Fiddly controls. [Issue#51, p.105]

    I ended up accidentally purchasing this game as I thought the link on Inside Xbox was for the free trial. It cost me 800MSP and I am appalled I ended up accidentally purchasing this game as I thought the link on Inside Xbox was for the free trial. It cost me 800MSP and I am appalled at how bad this game is. I would not have paid 80MSP for it. Its utterly dull, the ships are incredibly difficult to steer and the game is very difficult. 800 is way too much for this game. Avoid at all costs, its a waste of money. There are loads of games that are way better than this trash!… Expand
