    Space Giraffe won’t appeal to everyone. It demands you play by its rules, adjust to its learning curve.

    Rapture is a beautifully stylised city that provides plenty of mystery and intrigue. Definitely a game of the year contender.

    There are far better examples on the PSP all of which don’t have you suffer through terrible dialogue, monotonous battling and mind numbingly slow gameplay.

    So there you have it, Persona 3 soon warms up to be a memorable experience after a slow burning introduction. For those still hanging onto their PS2 before jumping into the next generation, it’s an essential acquisition for genre fans.

    Trying to maintain that balance between strategy and traditional role playing is ultimately its undoing, as it fails to fully deliver on either front.

    Still, overall it offers an enjoyable plot combined with a good battle system and interesting characters, making this latest Mega Man game a welcome addition to the saga not just for fans, but also for those wanting their first taste of the Blue Bomber.

    Boogie deserves to be a much better game. The excellent presentation hides a restrictive and basic control system that destroys any fun that might have been had while playing it.

    Picross DS is yet another fine example of what “Touch Generations” is all about, and is a great addition to the series.

    For those expecting a triumphant Mario title, you'll have to wait until Mario Party 8 for the next opportunity.

    Alien Syndrome is another entry in the catalogue of Wii games that fail to grasp the potential of the system. Simply tacking on a few new controls in a title that could easily have been created twenty years ago is not a winning formula.

    Once again, Guitar Hero makes us appreciate rock music more than ever before.
    • 56 Metascore
    • 10 Critic Score
    Without any decent multiplayer or online support, it's boring, tedious, and wholly without merit.

    Provided that you are willing to persevere with the game’s difficulty, Parappa provides a lot of fun.

    We're not concerned that the system isn't at the forefront of technology, so what is here isn't bad; it just hasn't got the charm of the books or the magic of the movie. And Harry Potter without magic doesn't make sense.

    A strong contender for one of our games of 2007. When you do finally get around to picking up a PlayStation 3, this should be your first online purchase.

    That's the thing about Transformers: The Game, while there are bits and pieces of fun here and there, it's overshadowed by the complete and utter rushed and unfinished feel to everything else.

    It's a sort of evil version of Pikmin with the ability to slaughter the innocent.
    • 79 Metascore

    If you have migrated onto the newer consoles in the market, then this is a great reason to head back to the PlayStation 2 one last time.

    On its own merits it is a steady adventure with plenty of content and modes making it an outside bet for any younger Nintendo Wii owner.

    All in all, The Darkness is a decent fifteen hour single player experience, featuring a brilliant story and even better presentation. However the enjoyment is slightly tainted by the under utilisation of its best features, sluggish movement and horrible multiplayer.

    While Starbreeze have brought their customary expertise graphically, so many other aspects of The Darkness are sadly lacking.

    However, it’s impossible to recommend to those who don’t have one of the DS games, and while die-hard Pokémaniacs will doubtless get some joy out of it, even they should avoid paying full-price for what is a somewhat limited expansion.

    Overall, this is a hugely disappointing release from Midway who had seemed to be on an upward trend over the past few years. Hopefully Hour of Victory is the exception, as this should have been binned long before arriving exclusively on the Xbox 360.

    Tedious puzzles and boring 'go here and collect this' missions destroy what could have been the most interesting Harry Potter title to date. So, it's another average movie tie-in then. What a surprise.

    That Warner Bros. actually authorised this Smart Price slice of blandcore to promote the finest film in the Potter canon is doubly tragic.

    If you're a huge fan of Harry Potter and desperate for the latest game in the series, you're best going with the Wii version and avoid this mess.
    • 69 Metascore

    While it will easily thrill Potter fans, it also provides an above average distraction for those curious about the series, or looking for a release that integrates the Wii remote with some reasonable success.
    • 51 Metascore

    Gamestyle is sure that die-hard, DS owning Potter fans will buy this game, and maybe even enjoy it a tiny bit, regardless of what we say here. For the rest of us though, this is one to steer clear of. Repetitive, tedious wandering and only marginally entertaining mini-games do not a proper game make.
