Nothing seems to be finished. The cover system is laughable, the AI as intelligent as an amoeba and the graphics aren't impressive either. The story is totally nuts, too. There are better alternatives out there.- GameStar

Despite all the freedom for the player, Underworld Ascendant is a bug-spectacle that, in spite of its great looks, is more boring than thrilling.- GameStar

This is Harry Potter and the Deadly Shallows. It's only six hours long, but just as boring and confusing as the book and just as bad as the console versions.- GameStar

The most pointless sequel since Duke Nukem Forever. Every single good idea is crushed by five bad ones.- GameStar

Every single activity is unbelievably repetitive and boring and the graphics look like they're from the year 2003. It may have been a cool idea, but the implementation is awful.- GameStar

With Shadow Harvest the developers bit off more than they could chew. Such a porject would have needed more ressources to be successful. The potential for that lies hidden deep inside the game.- GameStar

What happens when you invest the entire budget for a game in top-class actors and then have nothing left for the rest?- GameStar

The renovation fails: not only are the new additions crooked and wrong, they also bring the really solid foundation down.- GameStar

In all respects an uncalled-for continuation of one of the supposedly worst games ever. Yes, the original was better.- GameStar

This game won’t be published in Germany and that’s no loss at all. The game looks like a game from a few years ago, the single player campaign is finished in 4 hours and if the hero Dick Marcinko really was that kind of inhuman, he doesn’t even deserve a game.- GameStar

As an RPG, it's a disaster. Seen as a trashy pirate adventure it's crazy, funny and absurd.- GameStar

It's the worst-rated game on Steam for a reason, soccer fans are left heartbroken.- GameStar

Stupid name, stupid game. There are some games which will be remembered because of their quality. And then there are others which we would like to forget, but can't - because of their stupidity. This game is one of the latter, causing sore eyes and ears.- GameStar

I could fill novels with what is wrong with Postal 3. To shorten the whole thing, three words are enough: I am shocked. Not by the representation of violence and the scabrous knee-slappers, that many people see in the series. No, I'm shocked that Postal 3 turns out to be a technically older than dirt data cluster with lame gameplay, which has absolutely nothing really individual anymore. Oh dear, Postal 3 stimulates not even controversial discussions! In the end, it consists only of trivial game mechanics, which were copied cheesy from other games and have nothing to do with Postal itself anymore. Thereby Postal 3 is one of the biggest disappointments of 2011 for me. What have the developers just done for all eight years?- GameStar

The subtitle of Flatout 3 is "Chaos & Destruction". Quite appropriate: This impudence sparked in me an unexpected destructive frenzy so far. And after throwing my gamepad about twentyseventimes through my office, it was also there, indeed, pretty chaotic. The subtitle, however, remains the only promise that redeems Flatout 3 - the rest is utter misnomer. Here is pursued, in the most shameless way, to flog off an abysmal racing game with a known name to unsuspecting fans of the series. Flatout has not deserved this!- GameStar

The War Z is plagued by too many mistakes, but the developers seem to be unprofessional. I've watched the development of the game for too long now - without realizing improvement.- GameStar

The 'Alone in the Dark" movie by Uwe Boll was the worst thing to happen to the series - until this game. It feels like the developers just stopped working at some point and went home.- GameStar

Windchaser really is like a fresh breeze, with a handful of new ideas for roleplay/strategy games. Using the old game of scissors, paper, stone and enhancing it through character talents, morale, counter attacks and combos leads to complex battles, but can make it difficult to estimate the outcome. The mission design is a good mix of conquering sectors, using the mobile base and tactical battles. Choices have logical consequences and take the player through two well done campaigns.- GameStar

It's hard to understand why they haven't managed to solve the technical problems. If you don't mind the stuttering, the game is a lot of fun, especially with four players. But it's probably worth waiting for a patch.- GameStar

What did 49 Games do during winter? Summer Athletics didn't change a lot compared to last year. Presentation, the frugal graphic and the disciplines only show slight signs of further development. It's still fun with when playing with others.- GameStar

Reality Pump creates a tower defense game which for once doesn't force me to just watch while the opponent attacks – and then the game mechanics are a failure, the game is unbalanced the AI is very, very dumb.- GameStar

We like Indie games – but Dead meet lead just offers boring gameplay, unfair levels, no atmosphere or story and an ancient kind of presentation. Nobody needs that.- GameStar

Experimenting and trying things out shows: physics can be fun, especially when building weird machines. But it needs more tutorials for beginners and better controls.- GameStar

Insane 2 develops all his fun-potential only in multiplayer mode, at least in the abstract. De facto I detect a fellow player on the abandoned servers only in exceptional cases. My advice: Just organize a LAN party once again, as it used to be. Then Insane 2 becomes a guaranteed life of the party.- GameStar
