    All credit to Midway for trying their luck with the football market, but they should have left things up to the big boys; ‘FIFA’, ‘ISS’ and ‘PES’.

    It is very addictive and a lot of fun. But the puzzle mode has a replay factor of absolute zero. Anyone who would go back to it for fun would be a mad man.

    Truthfully, it isn’t a bad game, but its appeal only reachs a small niche.

    If only Another Code was double its length... It’s enjoyable and unputdownable until finish.

    The actual gameplay lends itself far more to a handheld format and for that reason alone, if you actually own a Gameboy Advance, you're probably better going for that version.
    • 60 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    The special moves look nice and the game is relatively easy to pick up, but that's about all it has going for it. So don't buy this unless you absolutely have to, for whatever reason that may be.

    It’s a pleasant experience, though. Not as good as Zelda, but the Harry Potter-sauce surely lifts it above average.
    • 69 Metascore

    If you can look beyond the dated graphics, the basic gameplay model and of course if shooters are your thing, then you are in for quite some fun, and that’s what it is all about really.

    So enjoy this game for what it is, a fun jumping game that can keep you amused for several hours if your willing to spend time trying to collect all the bonuses and complete the mini-games that Acclaim has arranged for you.

    Obviously aimed at younger gamers, it’s very lineair and never too difficult. For Harry Potter fans it’s a good buy, it’s filled with good voicework and little details from the books and movies.
    • 53 Metascore
    • 68 Critic Score
    Its still great fun but if it more time was spent on the graphics and camera angles it would of made a amazing game.
    • 70 Metascore
    • 68 Critic Score
    Thanks to a poorly constructed objective and progression system in the career mode, many players will find themselves giving up too soon.

    • 68 Critic Score
    The Incredibles seems to be going a little old school with this trial and error concept. For some that may be a challenge but for others it's just pure annoyance.

    Rising Sun has some great parts like the train level, but also some frustrating moments. Trying to aim properly while the framerate is unsteady and the only guns at your disposal are machine guns with terrible recoil is the most important cause of these.
    • 59 Metascore
    • 65 Critic Score
    The problems with the game though far outweigh the positive aspects and whilst this overall design probably looked good on paper there's not nearly enough variety to sustain your interest.
    • 68 Metascore
    • 65 Critic Score
    The lack of depth doesn’t ruin the game, but only younger sports lovers and dedicated Harry Potter fans will appreciate this.
    • 56 Metascore
    • 65 Critic Score
    It's really a shame they couldn't think of a way to keep the battles interesting for a longer time, the lack of variation really kills the game.
    • 69 Metascore
    • 65 Critic Score
    Unless you have an unhealthy obsession with the film, or are young don’t bother. But if those two descriptions match you, it will bring you hours of happiness.

    Not a bad game. It’s just hard to be impressed by a nice looking spy game with an uninteresting story and dumb A.I.
    • 57 Metascore
    • 65 Critic Score
    The extras are nice but not worth the purchase of a game you already own, especially since the DC version runs smoother.
    • 62 Metascore
    • 65 Critic Score
    Suffers from little mistakes, bad camera, sloppy AI, dated graphics.
    • 61 Metascore
    • 64 Critic Score
    Simply not worth your time. The graphics are mostly bland and dull, the gameplay is enjoyable but neither long enough nor fun enough to keep you entertained for more than half an hour or so at a time.
    • 33 Metascore
    • 64 Critic Score
    He, who didn't get caught by the beyblade mania, will have enough after about 15 minutes, because there is just not enough depth in the game.
    • 59 Metascore
    • 63 Critic Score
    The passing of time has paid its toll on this game, and Capcom did little to nothing to overcome this aging. The gameplay remains solid, but I don't think its enough to really enjoy the game, there are just too many shortcomings.
    • 58 Metascore
    • 63 Critic Score
    Frustration is high when playing Wreckless, time limits are short, and the arrow is useless when it points through a brick wall, controls can be awkward and traffic is dense and irritating, never feeling the need to move out of the way of the large truck heading down the wrong lane.
    • 63 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    By cutting down or even eliminating the essential RPG elements the fans will lose their interest quickly, while the action addicts will not appreciate the turn-based system.
    • 71 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    The lack of options is a real bummer, as there isn’t much that will keep you entertained, other than the impressively large NBA season mode.
    • 71 Metascore
    • 58 Critic Score
    While I'd usually applaud this type of game design this one is simply too repetitive to truly recommend.
    • 57 Metascore
    • 57 Critic Score
    It doesn’t look good, it sounds terrible and is way too easy. Sure it’s supposed to be a kids game, but kids don’t mind their games looking good and they’re also better at playing games than a lot of developers seem to think.
    • 47 Metascore
    • 57 Critic Score
    The problems are just too numerous to mention ranging from clumsy controls to frustrating camera angles and that's before you even get to the rather weak AI of almost anyone you decide to battle with.
