Personally I find it annoying that I lose points when my opponents hit me and not the other way around, but I still like the idea.- Boomtown

One hell of an addictive golfing game. If you played any of its incarnations on the PS2, you will know what to expect here.- Boomtown
-
- Critic Score
The best recommendation I can give is to tell you that the CD hasn’t been out of my drive since I bought the game before Christmas. I simply love this game.- Boomtown
-
- Critic Score
It tries too hard to be Halo rather than finding its own niche in the market and comes across as a game that doesn't try hard enough. There are moments of enjoyment, but not enough to recommend this.- Boomtown

- Critic Score
Super fun races with interesting AI and that surprisingly great customisation section.- Boomtown
-
- Critic Score
Twitch players in favour of the 'rush and crush' tactic will be deeply frustrated here, but those who like to take their time and mull over the tactical options available should find much to keep them occupied.- Boomtown
-
- Critic Score
The game does look quite good, especially considering that it’s not very taxing on your computer.- Boomtown
-
- Critic Score
So playing through File 2 with its linear, claustrophobic levels, constant backtracking, awkward controls (despite the full use of analogue movement this time) and limited menu space does more harm than good.- Boomtown

I asked you at the start of this review to buy a copy of this game - buy two - and not to let it become another "ICO." If it does, it's YOUR fault, dear reader.- Boomtown
-
- Critic Score
Wrestlemania 21's outrageously flawed A.I. and emphatically clunky control integration sully an otherwise outstanding display of wrestling prowess.- Boomtown
-
- Critic Score
Okay, the gloves are off. I really dislike this game. The titular fury is so apparent after just one race.- Boomtown
-
- Critic Score
Though it might appear a little dated, the game offers some innovative features, such as the addition of the Dreamworld, combined with a good story.- Boomtown
-
- Critic Score
It’s tempting to go so far as to state that this is the epitome of mainstream, generic console fare, but it doesn’t have playable rap stars or street racing in it, so it doesn’t even merit that.- Boomtown
-
- Critic Score
Only one thing stops us from awarding top honours to this game: the lack of a co-op mode, which would have been an obvious inclusion.- Boomtown
-
- Critic Score
It's a solid, fun game and there's no doubt you could do a lot worse, but you might find yourself feeling a little detached from it all after not too long.- Boomtown
-
- Critic Score
The new monsters are not as interesting as the original ones, and even though they’re still frightening, they just don’t fill the void left by DOOM 3.- Boomtown
-
- Critic Score
Doom 3 definitely has gameplay to back it up but it's gameplay from a few years ago while the rest of the world has moved on.- Boomtown
-
- Critic Score
The graphics are simply state of the art. Virtual Lego, and perfectly implemented.- Boomtown
-
- Critic Score
Its learning curve is fair instead of gleefully obstinate and that's what marks this series' major step forward.- Boomtown
-
- Critic Score
Every factor is so well designed; the combat, graphics, animation, music (brooding symphonic score a la Wagner), sound effects, puzzles etc. Even the voiceover is fine, not great, but fine.- Boomtown
-
- Critic Score
It’s marred by a lethargic combat system, slow level grinding and general lack of polish. My hope is that they will improve it in future patches and expansions but I’m not holding my breath.- Boomtown

- Critic Score
A fantastic achievement for a first gen PSP title, it is immensely playable and arguably the best Ridge Racer on any console or hand-held to date.- Boomtown
-
- Critic Score
With a fantastic selection of memorable catchy tunes moulded together with a simple easy to learn and addictive gameplay, Lumines is the perfect game for a handheld whether you have just ten minutes or a long two hours to kill.- Boomtown
-
- Critic Score
It's fun in short bursts, which ideally is exactly what I’m looking for in a handheld game.- Boomtown
-
- Critic Score
MX vs. ATV Unleashed is hardcore racing action. If you can handle it, you’re a god among insects. If not, say goodbye to any sense of feeling you had in your thumbs.- Boomtown

I'm genuinely struggling to overcome just how amazing WOP really is. To cram top-notch graphics, an enviably smooth control system, a soundtrack that would stand alone as a CD release and raw, unadulterated fun into a handheld game is beyond my comprehension.- Boomtown

- Critic Score
The game is beatifully made even if we miss the possibility of smashing through a house with a tank, as one could in "Heroes: Soldiers of WWII."- Boomtown

There are a few moments in Musashi Samurai Legend that’ll raise a smile or even make you laugh out aloud, and it’s generally a fun game to play.- Boomtown

- Critic Score
Quite simply the best submarine game ever, and it will provide months of entertainment.- Boomtown

- Critic Score
It's a stunner to look at and genuinely scared us on more than one occasion. I'm sure Darkworks would take some comfort in knowing that. But in the end it accounts for nothing, because this turkey is well and truly cold.- Boomtown
