    There's nothing here that would warrant this game being on the Xbox. It doesn't look good, the sounds are average, the tunes are forgettable and the gameplay is unimaginative.

    Resource management is boring at the best of times, and, in Shattered Suns, it's a yawn-festival.

    There are lots of missions and difficulty options, but they're all unlocked right away, so there's no sense of progress.

    The score is deceptive. There are worse superhero games you could be playing. In the end, though, there aren't any secrets that don't apply to gamplay so there's not much reason to revisit this.

    Repetitive, short, and uninteresting are good ways to describe the play experience found in Cybertron Adventures.

    The online portion of 25 To Life isn't bad; it's not deep by any stretch nor does it look particularly wonderful, but you and your pals can run around the city and shoot each other online and I bet some of you will really like it.

    Seriously, even if you are a fan of the original game, you will be hard-pressed to find the appeal of this title and will be disappointed in the end. Play the original, it’ll be cheaper and more entertaining in the long run.

    A sad story. The game had an interesting concept and a good amount of potential but it just never came together.

    Wacky Racers is still a better cartoon than a game. Crash and Dash is proof of that.

    The biggest problem with BUM:ZoD (actually BumZod is kind of a cool word…ya bumzod!) is directly related to the narrow track design that awaits you on every track. Crashing, smashing and bashing into the sides is something you'll have to get used to because there is no discernible way of NOT doing it.

    If you're anything like me, you won't be able to play it for any length of time unless you've got something on your mind that you're concentrating on that is far removed from the game. It's perfect for zoning out.

    Borderline shovelware -- but without that $20 price tag. I'd encourage you strongly to stay away from this game -- as a racing game, it has very little to offer. Cruising the city gets old quickly, and the multiplayer mode is about as exciting as the rest of the single-player game.

    Puzzle de Harvest Moon has a really unique concept, but unfortunately there's just no substance behind it.
    • 41 Metascore
    • 36 Critic Score
    Gameplay and control, unfortunately, are the worst aspects of the title. I can usually live with poor graphics if gameplay is good and the controls are solid. Alas, you will become bored very quickly. This game is a real snoozer.

    This game feels like a preliminary build rather than a finished game, and it's unenjoyable as a result.

    Despite its uninspired gameplay, the simple tasks and challenges may appeal to a younger audience, especially those that've seen the film. But if you're part of the "+" demographic in The Golden Compass' "E10+" rating, then you'll likely be bored soon after Iorek's opening wolf-whuppin' battle sequence.

    With bad controls, a terrible camera, and an unforgiving life and checkpoint system, don't expect to play this one for very long.
    • 41 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    With no multi-player modes and no incentives to replay the single-person mode there's no real reason to purchase this game. If this game had been released in the 90s, it would have been highly recommended but we expect a lot more these days regardless of the price.

    What you may not know is that this game already died a horrible death on the PC two years ago. Releasing it now onto an unsuspecting public is like having a sex offender move in next door without having your wits about you.

    It speaks volumes that when I was taking a break from reviewing RTF, I went back to my Zelda game and found myself visiting the fishing hole and enjoying it far more, even though it's not as complex as Rapala.

    The game suffers from long loads, poor control and an unplayable multi-player mode.

    The game will be delightfully nostalgic to gamers of old, and should be tried by anyone who is too young to remember it. It's an important part of gaming history, one that will make a fine addition to your Xbox LIVE Arcade game collection.

    A cash grab...a shallow game. It's a novelty that will disappoint many in the long run.

    While this game will take you twenty or more hours to complete, it is so repetitious and clunky you'll swear it was closer to eighty.

    Almost unplayable by oneself and difficult to find others to play with online. 0 Day is a really short game that you'll likely not come anywhere close to getting fifteen dollars worth of enjoyment out of.

    A long campaign doesn't help if the gameplay itself is intrinsically bad. Poor graphics, partially shoddy controls, boring objectives, and frustrating, repetitive missions make WWII Aces one to steer clear from unless you're a glutton for punishment.

    The only adventure you'll have with it is trying to get your money back should you be so unlucky to have purchased it.
    • 40 Metascore
    • 48 Critic Score
    A unique and fun game. Unfortunately, the game will only take between one and three hours to play through. Since there is no multiplayer or alternate play modes besides trial (playing levels over again to beat high scores), there is a serious lack of play value. This game was truly different, but ultimately, poorly executed.
    • 40 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    Intended for young gamers it's nice to see that attention was paid to the graphics and control system but the uninteresting gameplay will assure this game will see little action beyond the Holiday season.
