If you want a taste of the gritty underground fight scene depicted in the movie "Fight Club," you'd be better off paying somebody 50 bucks to beat you to a bloody pulp than wasting money on this game. It's unpolished, unfinished, and just plain bad. [Holiday 2004, p.102]- Electronic Gaming Monthly

The completely screwed-up camera, noticeable lack of sound effects, and gameplay bugs make it obvious no one working on this game cared about it - why should you? [Sept 2004, p.104]- Electronic Gaming Monthly

Shrek is full of dull, poorly constructed rip-offs that get recycled several times. You'll be utterly bored after a few minutes with these creepy diversions. [Feb 2003, p.158]- Electronic Gaming Monthly

Trying to master the game's unintuitive control system (with 12 different types of punches) was making my head spin, until I realized that mashing buttons and "circle strafing" my foe produced great results most of the time.- Electronic Gaming Monthly

If a circus train wreck was ever more accurately embodied in digital format, I haven't seen it...It's a steaming pile of bloody dog krap. [Mar 2002, p.146]- Electronic Gaming Monthly

Combine this lame gameplay with gaudy graphics, wretched acting and a mercifully short quest, and you've got one of the worst Xbox titles to date. [Oct 2002, p.204]- Electronic Gaming Monthly

One of the worst looking games to come out this year. [Feb 2006, p.110]- Electronic Gaming Monthly

Amazingly, for a game that costs 10 bucks, HRT is not the horrific tragedy it could have been. [May 2002, p.115]- Electronic Gaming Monthly

I think this is the most unplayable game I've ever encountered... and I've played some real crap. [June 2003, p.112]- Electronic Gaming Monthly

The graphics are a mess, the special moves are unresponsive, the animation is less fluid than a flip book, and the combat lacks strategic incentive. [June 2003, p.114]- Electronic Gaming Monthly

It'd be a bit better with a saner control scheme, but as it is, Drake is an exercise in frustration and repeated death. [Jan 2004, p.148]- Electronic Gaming Monthly

It's fairly mindless and all too easy. [Mar 2003, p.126]- Electronic Gaming Monthly
