    With inexcusable control and targeting issues there is no reason to subject yourself to this game.

    It can be fun with two players, but it's a real stretch. With Aggro, there is a sentiment to try it at least once, but we can't recommend more than that.

    Despite having a great premise for a stealth action game, we were disappointed by the finished product.
    • 56 Metascore
    • 58 Critic Score
    The concept was great, the only thing working against it was the fact that using the touch screen to shoot zombies could have proven to be too easy compared to its light gun cousin. To make up for this the developers seemed to go out of their way to make the game unfairly difficult when instead they should have increased the strategic elements of the game.

    It was an absolute mistake to create a Mario Party game that didn't follow the same mechanics and style as the rest of the franchise.
    • 39 Metascore
    • 57 Critic Score
    Kids and adults will find themselves frustrated with bad camera angles and dimwitted Oompa Loompas.
    • 57 Metascore
    • 55 Critic Score
    Paying 800 points for this game nets you a pretty dry experience.
    • 55 Metascore
    • 55 Critic Score
    This poorly made game lacks focus, organization and any sort of elegance that would make it fun for almost any period of time.
    • 72 Metascore
    • 55 Critic Score
    You'll want badly to love it, but only a select few will be able to forgive the flaws.
    • 58 Metascore
    • 55 Critic Score
    All of those annoying elements that we thought were gone in the next generation rear their ugly heads. It's too easy for adults, too frustrating for kids.
    • 53 Metascore
    • 55 Critic Score
    In the end, it is easy for the average gamer to skip this mediocre action game and not miss out on too much.

    Pocket Pool is the perfect billiards experience for those who enjoy fondling their cue stick.
    • 50 Metascore
    • 55 Critic Score
    A completely broken team racing feature and other minor annoyances quickly add up to make this a game for diehard Ford fans only.
    • 55 Metascore
    • 55 Critic Score
    An iffy buy for Diner Dash fans and not recommended for anyone unfamiliar with the franchise.
    • 61 Metascore
    • 55 Critic Score
    A by-the-numbers 3D platformer with some questionable design elements, awkward controls, and possibly the only protagonist ever who considers toilet plungers to be a fashion accessory. It’s best suited for inexperienced gamers, or those with high levels of tolerance and patience.
    • 52 Metascore
    • 54 Critic Score
    There’s nothing here that warrants a buy. Fans that want to know why Nightcrawler wasn’t in the movie will want to check out the game from your local video rental store.
    • 61 Metascore
    • 53 Critic Score
    It had great potential, but unfortunately Hef let us down with poor gameplay and a rough finish.
    • 55 Metascore
    • 53 Critic Score
    Sonic Riders tries to be too many things at once and ends up failing to be much of a game at all.
    • 50 Metascore
    • 51 Critic Score
    On a pass or fail review system, this fails horribly. If this was a child’s homework assignment, you could easily tell they put this together right before class started.
    • 52 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    Transformers: The Game is a textbook example of a licensed game done wrong.
    • 61 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    Fighting is rather dull and uninspired. It's often difficult to time your attacks as Spider-Man is unresponsive and doesn't always do what you want him to.
    • 48 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    Don't you have some bottle-cap collecting or laundry to be doing? Either will be much more fun than playing this game.
    • 31 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    While every series needs its foundation, Toy Shop feels like the blueprint of something better.
    • 56 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    While LOL is a good idea and genuinely is a lot of fun, it lacks many necessary features and options to make it recommendable over just using Pictochat.
    • 60 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    Considering Capcom announced Mega Man Star Force 2 before this game even came out, that should be reason enough to avoid it.
    • 55 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    Insecticide melds sloppy platforming/shooter action with lightweight adventure puzzling, cemented together by a derivative pseudo-film-noir plot chock-full of atrocious puns. Swat this one away.
    • 47 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    It can take some time to get used to the game's controls, because they are so different than other games on the market. This can be frustrating.
    • 37 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    While the game is fun in spots, Rocky and Bullwinkle is a wasted opportunity.
    • 64 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    Wild ARMs XF has potential, but poor mission design and some odd design choices make it mediocre at best.
    • 57 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    Dragonball Z: Harukanaru Densetsu gets credit for trying to provide a more newbie-friendly card-battler, but it comes at the cost of the planning and complexity that makes the genre fun.
