    "SSX 3" is five years old but still more advanced. SWS is underweight and out-of-date. [Jan 2009, p.64]

    • 60 Metascore
    • 65 Critic Score
    Not as exciting as it thinks it is. Standard movie tie-in fodder with added panache. [Oct 2011, p.94]

    The potential is there in the gunplay, but it's covered with shonky visuals and lifeless, grinding action. [Nov 2014, p.73]

    Sonic's finest 3D outing, it's just a shame he has to share top billing with the Werehog. [Jan 2008, p.56]

    Diverting enough, especially for four players, but not outstanding. [Nov 2008, p.83]

    In a game packed with natural disasters, it's a shame the biggest disaster of them all is how Populous has turned out on DS. [May 2009, p.84]

    • 57 Critic Score
    Glitchy and too difficult, this makes a disappointing end to a series that never found its footing. [Apr 2016, p.75]

    All 3D does is push heinous graphics closer to our eyes. You'd be safer rubbing dog poo into them. [Jan 2012, p.93]
