    MUD - FIM Motocross World Championship
    It lacks the ambition and style of some of its four-wheeled contemporaries, and you could argue that this license would have been better served by a semi-simulation like Milestone's own SBK. But by focusing on what makes motocross fun to watch rather than ride, it replicates the excitement of jumping from lip to lip astride a two-stroke tearaway... just about.

    Raw Danger!
    The evolving nature of the gameplay, and its intriguing story structure keeps you going. Not only that, the actual location design and some individual set-pieces are very atmospheric, and it somehow appeals to the old school adventurer in us that used to routinely find ourselves trapped somewhere with one single, set solution.

    Crimson Sea 2
    The all-new split-screen multiplayer modes are a bit hit and miss, but still welcome nevertheless.

    Sam & Max: The Devil's Playhouse - Episode 5: The City That Dares Not Sleep
    With the gameplay mechanics reduced to a largely predictable run of conversations and (in)appropriate use of objects, The City That Dare Not Sleep feels stuck in a rut much of the time.

    Full Auto
    It needed to kick your arse more, and give you something mechanical to lure you back, not just canned explosions. You'll enjoy playing it, but you're not actually being entertained.

    Final Fantasy
    With the RPG situation on PSP as overwhelmingly dire as it currently is, Anniversary stands out as one of the more enjoyable, its simplicity and charm forever keeping it gently compelling, in spite of the irritating throwbacks inherent to its age.

    Total Overdose: A Gunslinger's Tale in Mexico
    If you happened to be sitting at home one evening, bored off your tits, and feel like lying on your tummy with a stupid grin splattered across your face, you could probably do worse than to rent it out - even if it is basically that "Kill all the Haitians" line from Vice City done up as an entire game. Totally.

    Surfacer+
    The fact that Surfacer + is also out for iPhone for pennies makes the DSiWare price even more laughable.

    Band Hero
    Band Hero does not add anything to what we already saw in Guitar Hero 5, so in the end buying it just depends on your opinion about its track list.

    Dead to Rights
    Despite a number of difficult to spot and ultimately underwhelming "improvements", the Cube and PS2 versions of Dead to Rights remain generally engaging, with an uneven sprinkling of genius.

    Enslaved: Odyssey to the West - Pigsy's Perfect 10
    Its redeeming features are those it shares with Odyssey to the West – a sweet and nicely told story, an essential humanity. However, their redemptive powers are outdone by anachronistic trial-and-error gameplay, which grinds its gears and snaps your patience once too often.

    Bonsai Barber
    An easy game to admire, the concept is appealingly daft and the implementation rich in wit and charm. It's just too laidback for its own good; an approach that pays dividends in those first joyful days but proves less successful in the long term as the rising difficulty curve chafes uncomfortably against the whimsical lack of direction.

    Kororinpa: Marble Mania
    Controller novelty value can't disguise its one-trick limitations or the vanilla production values, and there's no doubt that it should have been released at a budget price. One to rent, then.

    Mask of the Rose
    Mask of the Rose is an incredibly ambitious dating sim - for better and worse, as its complexity is its greatest constraint.
    • 68 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Juiced
    There's no doubting Juiced is a quality game, but it veers off the racing line with a flawed progression system that starts off promisingly but penalises players too harshly and makes it a frustrating experience to claw your way back.

    ATV Offroad Fury 3
    If you're looking for an ATV game that offers solid arcade-style gameplay, a wide range of events and decent offline multiplayer options, Offroad Fury 3 does the job.
    • 72 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Amped 3
    Amped 3 certainly isn't awful, and will keep you entertained for a long time if you can get past the hideous presentation and get used to its stop-starty nature, but the most recent SSX was enormous too, and treated the sorts of tasks that Amped considers its core as a second string to its traditional racing and tricking.

    Gun
    The setting lends itself perfectly to the premise, yet ultimately the overly forgiving combat system makes the game too damned easy.

    The King of Fighters Collection: The Orochi Saga
    Come on, SNK, stop churning out ports of stuff we've seen a million times, and give European fighter fans the game they really deserve.

    Gauntlet (2014)
    Despite the missteps, Arrowhead's Gauntlet is a dungeon-crawler that understands the action's at its most thrilling when four players are piled in together, helping each other through the fight - and giving each other a hard time when they think that nobody's looking.

    Guitar Hero: Aerosmith
    Our feeling is that in this era of downloadable Rock Band albums for 13 quid - a price that's often criticised anyway - single-band games will have to offer gameplay innovations, spectacular fan service, or a lot more material than this to justify their existence and, more pertinently, an asking price of 40 quid without the guitar peripheral.

    Ultimate Spider-Man
    By limiting it to repetitive and limiting challenges, the game is condemned to that of pretty distraction.

    Over the Hedge
    Rated next to proper, real life combat platform games like Jak & Daxter and Sly Raccoon it's evidently a pale shadow of what else is out there, but next to other kids' games it's a massive improvement over what we've seen this year.

    World Racing
    It's too hard, it's a bit feebly constructed in places, and it plays too much like real driving, which, for a game laden with UFOs, is a bit of a contradiction.

    Pro Evolution Soccer 2008
    You're probably as well-served going for FIFA '08 on DS than you are this. That said, this is a decent attempt at portable football on the DS that carries Pro Evo's name, though don't let it fool you into thinking it's anywhere near as majestic as other versions.

    DOOM: Resurrection
    An enjoyable diversion for a couple of hours, but lacking in depth or replayability to warrant serious consideration.
    • 67 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Lollipop Chainsaw
    Grasshopper's latest really is a bit of a lollipop: it's sugary, colourful, insubstantial - and perhaps a bit sickly with it.
    • 76 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Me Monstar: Hear Me Roar!
    As a freebie to PlayStation Plus subscribers, Me Monstar Hear Me Roar is a cackling feast of projectile-vomiting silliness to while away an hour on, but you might balk at having to actually pay for it.
    • 73 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    SingStar Pop
    Pop Hits, by comparison, feels like a loosely thrown together collection of what the charts say is cool, with little regard for what will make for a fun karaoke party.
    • 62 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Marathon: Durandal
    Despite being ahead of "Doom 2" in many respects, it's simply nowhere near as fun to play. Saddled with clunky combat, it's impossible to come to this with fresh eyes and appreciate what the fuss was about.
