A reminder of why you want Darkstalkers 4 to happen so bad in more ways than a million. [May 2013, p.74]

Crysis 3 reunites the outfit with a voice, Prophet, and his supposed buddy, Psycho and tells you that only one set of sentient long-johns can save the world. It’s a functional excuse for the action but uninspired, much like the bulk of the game. [Issue#235]

With the possible exception of the Katamari games, there are few other series that have as good a grasp on scale as God of War. [Issue#235]

Despite occasional dissonance between narrative and game mechanics, Tomb Raider is a highly polished, highly accomplished reboot. Kudos, Crystal Dynamics. [Issue#235]

The fast pace, the offbeat humour, the randomness...it was a bit like being trapped in a giant Pachinko machine, which would go some way towards why the Japanese like it so much. [Issue#235]

It is a triumph of artistry, technology and design. It isn’t perfect, but nothing this ambitious ever is. [Issue#235]

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

It's funny and weird, if not a whole lot of fun past the first 15 minutes - but for that price, that's enough. [Apr 2013, p.23]

It's not bad, but Pangolin also isn't very compelling. [Apr 2013, p.23]

The puzzles are fun and it gets your brain working. [Apr 2013, p.23]

This one just frustrated us. [Apr 2013, p.23]

A functional but forgettable budget title featuring clarinet solos and wiseguys. Wait for Steam sale. [Apr 2013, p.78]

Some excellent ideas and multiplayer fun but not enough content as yet. [Apr 2013, p.76]

Far from Ron Gilbert or Double Fine's best, but The Cave manages to deliver just enough satisfaction to avoid disaster. [Apr 2013, p.74]

An ambitious, unique, and intelligently-designed puzzle game that is as gratifying as it is frustrating. [Apr 2013, p.72]

Not as bad as the wost Aliens games, yet it's also not in the same league as the very best, leaving ACM to meandering in the space system of mediocrity. [Apr 2013, p.69]

Could've used touch-ups in existing areas, but hey. [Apr 2013, p.64]

Rises to the occasion, even if it's not quite "Metal Gear" solid. A slightly tweaked, Kojima-written sequel would be perfect. [Apr 2013, p.61]

Extremely well executed and addictive. [March 2013, p.27]

The 'throwing bowling balls at zombies' gameplay feels pretty flakey and the humour doesn't really do it for us. [March 2013, p.27]

Online multiplayer is a nice touch. [March 2013, p.27]

For 99c it's an absolute steal. [March 2013, p.27]

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]

Thematic appropriateness aside, a fantastic, mind-blowing narrative that will wreck havoc with your brain. [March 2013, p.82]

A tighter focus on multiplayer modes would have helped with the online population. It's definitely worth the budget price, though. [March 2013, p.81]

Until the game can keep up with the player's creativity it's best enjoyed in short spurts. [March 2013, p.80]

True, it can be exasperating and tedious, but it can also be touching and insightful and supremely gratifying. [March 2013, p.78]

A test of your moral fortitude in a world that's gone to the dogs. [March 2013, p.76]
