    There are some problems with the game, but a great combat system, great multiplayer and great presentation all make up enough for the game’s shortcomings.

    The best way to describe Burnout Legends is "Burnout 3" on the PSP.

    The graphics are mostly amazing and the weather effects are just awesome.
    • 51 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    All the machine guns, sawed-offs, and rocket launchers can't save this title. 187 Ride or Die lacks a number of things that could have made this a worthwhile action game so all we're left with is a disappointing racing game.

    Been there, done that.

    The majority of the games has plenty of replay value and will keep most people playing for ages.

    Pac 'n' Roll proudly stands as the king of mediocrity. Not bad, not good, but just there anyway, pushed out of the door to keep the income coming.

    The best Incredible Hulk game yet. A fun and enjoyable game which will have any action fan rapt.

    If you love NFL football, then you HAVE to check out this game.
    • 67 Metascore
    • 75 Critic Score
    There is a wide and varied range of modes, which will keep you playing for ages. This also adds to the replay factor which will also be very high.
    • 66 Metascore
    • 75 Critic Score
    As well as being able to play a match with normal tennis rules there are many different types of matches, which help add to the longevity of the game.
    • 56 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    The game feels unfinished in parts and unfortunately there isn’t enough content in the game to another play through once you have completed the game.
    • 26 Metascore
    • 35 Critic Score
    The whole game feels rushed. The graphics are very poor and the characters besides the Oompa Loompas really don’t look like their movie counterparts.
    • 39 Metascore
    • 35 Critic Score
    The musical score of the game will get on most peoples nerves within the first 20 minutes.
    • 70 Metascore
    • 75 Critic Score
    A unique and interesting concept for a game, but unfortunately some ideas were put forward early in to the development of the game which finalized in a title that seems unfinished and thrown together by amateurs.
    • 74 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    The movement system of the game is extremely commendable although I can imagine some people finding it terribly annoying.
    • 88 Metascore
    • 95 Critic Score
    A resounding success for the puzzle genre; it's really the first time that story, graphics, sound and gameplay have meshed well.
    • 74 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Atelier Iris Eternal Mana may not be as polished as other similar titles but does provide a fun and addictive RPG that should appease old school RPG gamers.
    • 50 Metascore
    • 75 Critic Score
    A first-rate game. Don’t forget that it’s on the Nintendo DS, or your standards might be set incredibly high.
    • 74 Metascore
    • 85 Critic Score
    A breath of fresh air amongst other games lacking in uniqueness and creativity.
    • 75 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    The presentation is simple and minimalist, so while it won’t blow you away, it allows you to focus entirely on the intense multiplayer action.
    • 65 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    This is the best Batman video game ever released, saying that this game still isn't a AAA title but is above average. The linear storyline does subtract from the playability but this is really not a true hindrance.
    • 68 Metascore
    • 85 Critic Score
    A pretty good street racing game.
    • 67 Metascore
    • 75 Critic Score
    Unfortunately experienced FPS players may find they aren’t being offered anything new in the game.
    • 93 Metascore
    • 90 Critic Score
    The fact you can complete the main storyline and still only be 30% into completing the game really shows you how much depth Rockstar have included in the game.
    • 72 Metascore
    • 85 Critic Score
    The intros and the voice-overs of the WWII veterans is what helps bring a sense of realism to this game.
    • 93 Metascore
    • 85 Critic Score
    There is the slight hint that it may need a bit of a fresh direction if the GTA series is not to become just another set of endless and ever-increasingly bland sequels.
    • 61 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    The basic storyline is good enough and the game does bring a few new aspects to the genre such as having to fill your car up with petrol. Unfortunately though this vision became lost during development and the game just feels unfinished.
    • 88 Metascore
    • 100 Critic Score
    Simply put, Twisted! is an undeniably brilliant, polished and hugely enjoyable game that should be in every collection, and it stands as an unsurpassable bookend to the GBA era.
    • 57 Metascore
    • 65 Critic Score
    The fact that there’s not much more you can do apart from hit a ball over a net makes Volleyball games unfulfilling and extremely limited.
    • 67 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    An ambitious and subsequently innovative title that brings a number of refreshing changes to the survival horror genre.
    • 65 Metascore
    • 65 Critic Score
    A nice attempt, but an overall feeling of unfulfilling incompleteness.
    • 60 Metascore
    • 65 Critic Score
    Follows the movie’s storyline quite faithfully.
    • 61 Metascore
    • 75 Critic Score
    The final singleplayer bonus mission that you unlock is actually quite rewarding for fans of the older movies.
    • 69 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Designing your maps and heading online has never been easier than it is in Pariah, but you may have trouble spreading your map around in the public when every other man and his dog has designed a map that they want to show off too.
    • 70 Metascore
    • 65 Critic Score
    Features the backbone and potential of a great first-person shooter: lush graphics, great music and ambience, massive, well-designed environments and a unique storyline. When it comes down to it, though, the story is told poorly and the gameplay is incredibly repetitive, bland and hardly innovative.
    • 92 Metascore
    • 100 Critic Score
    You can sum up this game in two words, "Sheer Perfection".
    • 76 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    This is a solid, deep and involving game that still managed to drag me away from important work for a few hours even though I'd played it all before.
    • 38 Metascore
    • 40 Critic Score
    Driving a motorbike whacking your enemies seems almost like a thing of the past as it was perfected about ten years ago, and hasn't been developed any further since.
    • 58 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    Only the true RE addicts should pick this one up.
    • 71 Metascore
    • 75 Critic Score
    Once all is said and done, there’s next to no replayability factor for Pac-Pix. There’s really no need to go back and challenge a chapter you’ve already completed, and once beating the game, Pac-Pix may indeed grow a nice dust layer on top.
    • 72 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    The sound is exceptional and sets the atmosphere and pace of the game.
    • 56 Metascore
    • 45 Critic Score
    Xbox Live gives the game a little justice, but the offline mode could be 100 times more elaborate and involving that it is which is quite a shame, considering how much we were hyping it up and awaiting its arrival.
    • 59 Metascore
    • 40 Critic Score
    The lack of depth in the game's structure and driving system would deter most hardcore gamers from trying it, while the Mustang fans would be driven away by the over-competitive AI before you can start a Mustang's engine and warm it up.
    • 87 Metascore
    • 100 Critic Score
    It’s one of the most original, creative and inspired titles out there and even better—-it’s one of those rare videogames that can actually make you laugh out loud.

    The graphics are supreme and almost unmatched in today’s strategies, but with "Age of Empire III" just around the corner, we can’t see Stronghold 2 sustaining life for a long time in anybodies gaming world.
    • 73 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    The Challenge mode may only hold your interest for a little while, but the one hundred migraine-inducing puzzles will definitely make you come back to the game.
    • 89 Metascore
    • 90 Critic Score
    It may not be the "Morrowind" killer in our eyes, but Jade Empire is a very solid title that will keep you playing right to the very end.
    • 84 Metascore
    • 90 Critic Score
    The crashes will make you laugh, the corners will make you irritated, but all round this game has a whole lot of awesome fun crammed in to the disc.
    • 53 Metascore
    • 55 Critic Score
    The game is good for those who are just after a laugh and a fun time with their mates away from 'stat slaves', which have become far too frequent on a little-known FPS called "Halo 2."
    • 69 Metascore
    • 65 Critic Score
    If you can put up with annoying controls, stupid team mates, and what simply feels like a rushed title, then there are some moments in Close Combat: First to Fight which are rewarding, but overall the game really isn't worth the trouble.
    • 85 Metascore
    • 85 Critic Score
    With the Quick Mission Maker, competitive multiplayer and Co-Op, there is good replayability and you will be getting plenty of flashbang for your buck.
    • 76 Metascore
    • 85 Critic Score
    The game has a good balance of action and puzzle solving which should keep you playing through right to the end.
    • 88 Metascore
    • 85 Critic Score
    Technically brilliant; it just doesn't offer any innovation or game play variation.
    • 78 Metascore
    • 85 Critic Score
    It's great being able to play through all three of the latest movies in one sitting, even if their storylines are a little watered down.
    • 77 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    The principles of the game are very simple but the game is incredibly enjoyable for all ages.
    • 69 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    A good solid game, as it should be considering it’s the fifth in the series. Being released around the same time as "Tekken 5" though, it’s incredibly noticeable how one series can progress and develop new modes of gameplay, while another can simply try to release the same old.
    • 74 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    A messy port of the year-old Xbox version, bearing disappointing graphics and sound.
    • 94 Metascore
    • 95 Critic Score
    The best stealth game ever, period.
    • 79 Metascore
    • 90 Critic Score
    Just fun to play. Fans of the series will be more then satisfied and newcomers will be amazed at how addictive this game is.
    • 67 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    If you can get past the slightly annoying controls while swinging around and the short length of the game, then pick this title up.
    • 94 Metascore
    • 95 Critic Score
    Without a doubt one of the best Playstation 2 games ever. It puts the average action-adventure game to shame.
    • 88 Metascore

    Anyone doubting the power of the handheld will be left eating their words after sampling just one lap of this unbelievably accomplished first effort from Namco.
    • 75 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Fans of turn based strategy games will enjoy this title though, if you aren't a fan then I suggest avoiding this title.
    • 66 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    The game is long enough to keep most fans pleased, with the small multiplayer mode adding some additional lifespan if you have a friend who also owns a copy of the game.
    • 51 Metascore
    • 75 Critic Score
    If you're a fan of the series, this game is an essential purchase. It will only disappoint you if you have no idea how to handle the Z warriors.
    • 84 Metascore
    • 90 Critic Score
    Has its highs and its mediums, but no lows.
    • 73 Metascore

    While MX vs. ATV Unleashed does bear flaws that its predecessor did not, such as the long load times, superficial use of vehicles and questionable championship layout, these are outweighed by the terribly entertaining gameplay and pretty graphics that it delivers.

    • 45 Critic Score
    If you're dying to relive the classics, buy the actual Atari system and all the games - it can hardly set you back more than $20. At least you'll play the original, and won't have to face the travesty of the remixed modes.
    • 88 Metascore
    • 90 Critic Score
    A joy to look at, and it's viscerally satisfying enough to please fans of the series and new players alike.

    The forts concept has been added with precision, ensuring that it moulds into the game's structure almost seamlessly. Unfortunately, though, the gameplay is still painfully slow.
    • 82 Metascore
    • 85 Critic Score
    How the story develops is fantastic and keeps you playing through the game due to the cut scenes between missions and the mission driven storyline.
    • 64 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    The cel-shadded graphics and the off beat humour will put a majority of people off but if you can get past this you have an enjoyable title. Mimicking enemies attacks is quite fun when you get the hang of it.
    • 68 Metascore
    • 75 Critic Score
    The gameplay is solid and enjoyable. The visuals fit the atmosphere wonderfully, the sound is suitably heroic and epic and the gameplay gets rid of some of the tired conventions of the genre and in their place introduces new ideas that help move it forward.

    The swimming is clunky, and the game is way too easy, and hence, short. Ultimately, it's the perfect rental.

    Solid gameplay, an excellent story-line, interesting moments, unique puzzles, and massive environments, however every game has its down points and unfortunately Devil May Cry’s biggest down points are annoying ones.
    • 88 Metascore

    The game's ending lacks excitement and closure, but rest assured this is due to the fact that the story is to be continued when the next game in the series - currently in development and only recently announced - is released.

    It may be a long full game, but other racing games on the market are faster and more action packed.

    The idea was great. An action-packed explosive futuristic urban warfare FPS – but Eidos have not spent enough time on graphics, sound, story, handling and marketing.
    • 73 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    The game’s graphics are far from amazing – facial detail aside, of course – but overall Kessen III is an innovative and highly-enjoyable title, delivering a fresh and even blend of action and strategy with menus and statistic systems that are easy to learn and to get into and far from convoluted.

    SFAC plays as solidly as ever, the same tight controls, decent mix of well balanced and nutty characters.

    It’s a shame though that the game only lasts for about 4-5 hours though, as Constantine could have been a good 3rd person shooter adventure if done properly.

    You'll use the DS to its fullest capacity, with games utilising the both screens, the stylus and the microphone. But as has become the norm with the series, it is way too short.

    The Arwing levels improved from Dinosaur Planet, while the on-foot ones worsened.

    • 51 Metascore
    • 45 Critic Score
    Simply a mediocre action adventure composed of recycled concepts and poor attempts at innovation that not even Tekken fans will enjoy.
