    The more you play, the more you realise that this is an extremely simplified take on Crazy Taxi. [Issue#253, p.80]

    Deeply disappointing in just about every way. [Issue#253, p.70]

    This is fairly unobtrusive for a free to play game, but you might as well stick with Trials Frontier. [Issue#250, p.74]

    Terribly ugly and just a little too dumb, Moebius feels unloved and abandoned by its developers. [Issue#249, p.73]

    Ugly, stupid and riddled with cliche, Bound by Flame has car crash fascination but little else to recommend it. [Issue#249, p.62]

    Alright, maybe it won't enslave humanity. But there's no good reason to buy and play Rivals. [Issue#249, p.60]

    As offensive as it is bland. [June 2014, p.74]

    I can't believe what a disaster this game is. [June 2014, p.64]

    Some games are so bad they're endearing. Rambo is not one of these. It's an insult to games and gamers alike. [May 2014, p.78]

    It's ambitious, but boring. [Apr 2014, p.74]

    A greedy, nasty piece of work, based on a broken economy scheme. [Apr 2014, p.74]

    • 54 Metascore
    • 30 Critic Score
    A bland entry to an already bloated array of games, Battle of Z fails to scratch that Dragon Ball itch that its predecessors managed to hit. [Apr 2014, p.68]

    • 67 Metascore
    • 40 Critic Score
    At least turning the ship's wheel with your finger is a pleasantly tactile experience. [March 2014, p.76]

    You'd think a game that started its life on the far inferior Kinect 1.0 would have competent Kinect controls. You'd think wrong. [Feb 2014, p.78]

    • 40 Critic Score
    An idea with insane potential crippled by limiting transformations to scripted events. [Feb 2014, p.76]

    Not particularly interesting or enjoyable. [Oct 2013, p.78]

    It's playable and not terribly designed, just extremely dull. [Sept 2013, p.84]

    Listless tapping and sliding. [July 2013, p.85]

    There's more problems with this game than I have words. Looks great though. [June 2013, p.80]

    Unlike the sublime Telltale game based on the same license, Survival Instinct reeks of cheap tie in cash grab. [June 2013, p.71]

    • 69 Metascore
    • 40 Critic Score
    An incredibly irritating protagonist, and his tilt-fuelled infinite-runner-esque adventures are fiddly and boring. [Apr 2013, p.23]

    • 45 Metascore
    • 40 Critic Score
    Aside from a few moments of tank on robot action, Tank! Tank! Tank! fails to live up to the promise of its gloriously stupid name. [March 2013, p.84]

    • 43 Metascore
    • 40 Critic Score
    A little too slow and boring to warrant the commitment it demands. [Feb 2013, p.78]

    Clunky, unpolished and altogether flimsy. [Feb 2013, p.73]

    It's not as funny as it thinks it is, nor as enjoyable. [Jan 2013, p.31]
    • Hyper Magazine
    • 41 Metascore
    • 20 Critic Score
    The worst possible anniversary tribute to a character that deserves so much better. A turgid, tragic piece of sh.t. [Jan 2013, p.79]
    • Hyper Magazine
    • 54 Metascore
    • 40 Critic Score
    Bland, glitchy, linear to a fault and hopelessly redundant. You could go your whole life without playing this and not miss anything. [Jan 2013, p.72]

    • 60 Metascore
    • 40 Critic Score
    Terrible AI, poor controls and questionable design decisions. [Jan 2013, p.66]

    The absolute lowest point in this gen's lunatic JRPG precedent thus far. [Jan 2013, p.80]

    This is worthless, rote action, done much better elsewhere. [Nov 2012, p.78]

    • 40 Critic Score
    Thanks to screwy physics, dated design practices, and a series of poor decisions, this Hawk is a real turkey. [Oct 2012, p.64]

    • 20 Critic Score
    The Sisyphean feat of defeating a level doesn't leave you elated, but instead gives you the urge to release the boulder and let it crush you to death so you don't have to do it all over again. [Sept 2012, p.69]
    • Hyper Magazine
    • 42 Metascore
    • 20 Critic Score
    The style is problematic and the substance is all but absent. [Aug 2012, p.78]
    • Hyper Magazine
    • 55 Metascore
    • 30 Critic Score
    This one's a dud. [May 2012, p.83]

    This entry has gone horribly awry. [May 2012, p.83]
