    Great parts, sloppy construction. Will take you to the moon, but maybe not back again. [Oct 2016, p.104]

    Kerbal Space Program amazes for the great freedom given to the player and the highly accurate physics simulation, but it unluckily stumbles on the porting aspect, with very uncomfortable controls and lots of bugs.

    Kerbal Space Program is a rare game, an unbelievably good simulator that unfortunately suffers from a being a fairly poor port from PC to console.

    Kerbal Space Program is not for everyone, but for those who love anything to do with outer space, physics and cute aliens, you would be in your element here.

    Recommend only for the most hardcore of space simulation fans and patience is a must

    Controls are hard but after you get used to them they are great.

    Very fun and looks great on my 70 inch TV rather than my 27 inch pc.

    Having it in my front room is a blast and sharing the game with my kids and family is cool.

    Glad it was brought to console.

    It is very hard to review this game properly since I never really got past the tutorials but when a company can't be bothered to take the timeIt is very hard to review this game properly since I never really got past the tutorials but when a company can't be bothered to take the time to port their game properly, I can't be bothered to play it any lobger rhan necessary. Main issues: controls are horrid. You can tell it's made for a PC when there's a mouse cursor on the screen that you move around. The font size is ridiculously small for ise on a console and the Windows have to be dragged put of the way during the tutorial. I mean seriously.. they couldn't even be bothered to make sure their tutorial windows weren't in the way of the actions you need to take. For anyone wanting to play this game, grab it on PC as it is amazing. Otherwise wait until they fix these issues or be aware of them before buying this game. Full Review »

I have racked up more than 7 thousand hours on the pc version, and I have been playing it since just after the demo version came out. But this... I have to say, DO NOT BUY IT. It is a waste of your money, the controls are absolutely horrid, the gui design is clunky, and you will regret every penny. Full Review »
