    • 57 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    All in all it feels like a very limited sequel, one aimed at removing the more major problems of its predecessor rather than trying to bring anything new to the table.
    • 75 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    There's certainly a decent sized campaign and there is the added multi-player to increase longevity, albeit not online enabled, and graphically the game is very impressive for a PSP game which means long loading times are not created along the way.
    • 71 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    If you want a handheld shooter to play online (an MP-PSP-FPS, if you will) then this is a good choice. PSP controls are never going to be perfect, but they aren’t terrible here. If you want a single player game do not touch this with a barge pole, it's uninspired, boring and unbelievably dated.

    Bully's most negative technical aspect is the in-game camera, which lags behind action and just cannot cope with corridors or quick changes of direction.
    • 85 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    It's a shame that the overall package can't be as satisfying as it is online because, while it still has many things we've always loved about the Splinter Cell series, it's hardly the next generation offering we were hoping for.
    • 74 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    An enjoyable script and weapons will keep you playing until the game's climax, but don't expect to go back for more.
    • 68 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    While a decent dungeon crawler in its own right, it just feels unimpressive in comparison to its rival.
    • 80 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    The gameplay is expertly refined to such a degree that little more improvement can be achieved. Now all we need is the actual atmospheric experience to be up to par.
    • 80 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    It's fair to say that this is probably the best handheld football game available and certainly in the top two or three in anyone's book. However, compared with the home versions, this feels poor, like they knew the PSP version couldn't be as good so they didn't bother trying.
    • 66 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    Competent if uninspired.
    • 74 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    The persisting feeling is that this is a rushed oddity, attempting to attract new recruits to the series while offering a challenge before it returns to its RPG roots. For Gamestyle the return cannot come quickly enough.
    • 64 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Charming and polished but devoid of any depth.
    • 75 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    It makes for a big, if rarely clever package, entertaining if hilarious ultra violence is your bag, tryingly awkward and limited if it isn't.
    • 83 Metascore
    • 90 Critic Score
    There's something here for everyone, presented in a familiar and friendly way, and offering big challenges for those willing to give it their attention.
    • 75 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    A game that surpasses EA's "The Godfather." Knowledge of Scarface is not necessary, but you will respect Tony Montana or else.
    • 78 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    If you liked Mercury (or slightly dull games in general), you can cope with garish colours and you want a game that will last you a long time, then this isn't that bad an option.
    • 82 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    If only that trademark familiarity didn't breed contempt at the annual updates - still less of a leap and more of a step. The embarrassing stumbles that once blighted EA Sports' flagship are a distant memory.
    • 72 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Get past the inherent limitations and you'll find a surprisingly good rendition of the beautiful game.
    • 85 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    There are annoyances, such as poor menus, but these are balanced out by the excellent online integration and animation.
    • 50 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    The humour does little more than raise the game's entertainment value from below average to average.
    • 73 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    If you can look past the bugs, brevity and repetitive nature of Just Cause, there is a lot to enjoy for the action enthusiast: abseiling behind speeding cars, insane parachute drops, massive amounts of gunplay and beautiful graphics to name just a few features.
    • 69 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Moto GP is rather desirable for anyone that loves their simulated bike racers and the PSP once again proves that it's a decent handheld for racing fans.
    • 84 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    NBA 2K7 is your typical update. It may not revolutionise anything, but the improved graphics and online mode are enough to win over fans of the series.
    • 59 Metascore
    • 30 Critic Score
    The Godfather is not a total failure, but when the main impetus to play through its missions is to watch the bonus film material, you have to ask what the point is.
    • 93 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Okami is a thing of beauty, and although it treads one or two too many familiar paths, it never fails to follow its own as well.
    • 77 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    After the shambles that is "Reservoir Dogs," The Godfather shows how to bring a film license to the world of video games.
    • 83 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    You would expect Zelda to have a little more to it when it arrives, but everything Rocket Slime does, it does very well and is one of the most enjoyable titles to arrive for a fair few years.
    • 66 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    It's quite sad when what we have here is a solid beat em up that really deserves quite a bit of attention. It's not the best fighting game on the PS2, but for the budget price which it's being released at, it's certainly worth a shot.
    • 52 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    Samurai Warriors 2 lacks the cutting edge Gamestyle was expecting and, for many out there, is an easy target to criticise. Improvements and new additions are recognised, but more work is necessary to revitalise the genre for a new generation.
    • 62 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    The concept had a lot of potential, but we feel that far too much of this potential has gone unexplored.
