Although there's an attempt to get everyone involved in the action - via a very basic command system - it really just feels like a third-person shooter full of headless chickens. [June 2006, p.80]- Games Master UK

Part RPG, part RTS, it sadly fails to nail both. An entertaining if mediocre medieval adventure. [Nov 2016, p.80]- Games Master UK

It's fun for a while, but next to some of the Wii's finest mini-game compilations, it falls short. [Jan 2011, p.97]- Games Master UK

This tip-toes around the TV series rather than turning out a quality gaming experience. [Apr 2008, p.56]- Games Master UK

Looks ugly as sin compared to RPGs from the likes of Square Enix. [Mar 2010, p.58]- Games Master UK

Aims to be smart and slick, but comes across as dumb and crude. [Dec 2006, p.94]- Games Master UK

Like hedgehogs and motorways, super Sonic speed and slow sword combat don't go together. [Apr 2009, p.66]- Games Master UK

Unfortunately, though, the game's controls turn out to be more effective at slowing you down than all of its eerie enemies and devilish puzzles. [June 2007, p.74]- Games Master UK

There's fun to be had, but the choice and variety are as micro as the machines, limiting your enjoyment. [Sept 2017, p.74]- Games Master UK

A scrappy, unfulfilling brawler that's nevertheless quite difficult to dislike despite itself. [Aug 2016, p.70]- Games Master UK

Attacking with a remote flick is too vague - not furry, but fuzzy in fact. [Issue#231, p.95]- Games Master UK

Almost succeeds as a Mega Man tribute, but it's let down by its looks, bugs, and often dull action. [Aug 2016, p.73]- Games Master UK

Barely interactive, and fails to capture the suspense and nuance of superior games in the genre. [Jan 2018, p.65]- Games Master UK

A basic hack-'n'-slasher that won't keep you entertained for long. [Mar 2011, p.97]- Games Master UK

Hoping for a realistic combat flight sim? You'll be disappointed with this undynamic flyer. [Apr 2012, p.86]- Games Master UK

It all works, but the majority of additions detract from the original's charm. A shame. [Nov 2013, p.73]- Games Master UK

No plaudits for Namco Bandai here - they've put minimal effort into Budokai HD Collection. [Jan 2013, p.86]- Games Master UK

Stunted, bitty world design and cut and paste quests drain the colour from one of gaming's most vivid worlds. [Apr 2014, p.75]- Games Master UK

Fuse feels like a five-year-old game wrapped in a ten-year-old art style. [Aug 2013, p.68]- Games Master UK

Neat ambient tone is shattered by design confusion and physics frustration. [May 2013, p.79]- Games Master UK

There's a great idea in here somewhere, but it's hard to find it when it's buried under so much space dust. [Oct 2014, p.80]- Games Master UK

There is certainly light in this tunnel, but it doesn't shine brightly enough to reach the end. [Oct 2014, p.81]- Games Master UK

The mission itself is painfully short. [March 2013, p.85]- Games Master UK

A very basic, simplistic shooter with over-forgiving auto-targetting and linear levels. And the controls don't translate that well to PSP, either. [June 2006, p.79]- Games Master UK

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]- Games Master UK
