The level of fun wears thin fast in this game, making it suitable for short increments of play if you’d like to keep yourself from becoming bored. It’s easily the worst in the BK Games Series.- Console Gameworld

All things considered, this game offer more value than a puzzle book for those who are interested in sudoku. It's not flashy, but it offers a lot of puzzles and the extras are useful. If you're a sudoku fan or you're looking for a good puzzle game, I'd recommend checking out Dr. Sudoku.- Console Gameworld

It is just plagued by mindful tedium and an uninspired battle system that prevent it from breaking the shackles of mediocrity and soaring to glory. It pains me to give Spidey 2 such a bad review, since the game's saving grace of web-shooting clearly showed that the game had serious potential.- Console Gameworld

Blood, gore and lots of body parts make up ninety percent of this game and for this kind of an FPS, it should. This game is a nice little shooter that shouldn't be passed over without being given a second glance.- Console Gameworld

The bottom line is that Battlefront is an A-list rental; great for a weekend of Star Wars geekery with a bunch of friends, offering solid fun for the first four or five hours.

If you’re looking for a good DBZ fighter, go to your nearest bargain bin and pick up Budokai 3. If you’re looking for the ultimate Dragonball Z simulation game, go pick up Budokai Tenkaichi 3. Both games are cheaper and provide better gaming experiences than Burst Limit.- Console Gameworld

Overall, the single player game gets old pretty fast. Contrary to popular belief, it's not that satisfying to top "Allan Shortt's" score of 123. The multiplayer mode offers more entertainment for serious puzzle fans, but other gamers will probably tire of the game quickly.- Console Gameworld
