    This game is an unchallenging space shooter made a little more difficult with frustrating design and a terrible camera angle. Even if you’re a fan of the TV series, we really cannot recommend a purchase.

    While it’s kind of cool to see a new take on such an old game, the presence of a muddy palette and outdated game mechanics combined with the inexplicable absence of co-op makes Beast Rider forgettable and so much less than it could have been.
    • 44 Metascore
    • 35 Critic Score
    The limited gameplay with an atmosphere that is completely spoiled by some deviously frustrating design and lazy pathing leads to an experience that for most will be flat and lifeless.

    Cheap and cheerful would be stretching it, but as far as budget shooters go, it's not too bad.

    Considering the game isn’t just dated but contains more bugs than MI5 (and we had the latest 1.05 version to review, so Christ knows what the unpatched code is like), not to mention the fact that this is the time of year when games aren’t going to sell because they’re merely very good instead of excellent, SunAge never stood a chance.

    Search as we may, we haven’t been able to find one single redeeming feature in Will of Steel.

    Littered with slowdown, needless cut-scenes and droll monotonous play, Iron Man is as disappointing an effort as Sega has published in its entire history.

    Whether running around the Bada Bing nightclub or a casino, the locations are boxy, linear and woefully outdated in terms of texture quality. Frankly speaking, it just isn’t up to scratch.

    Archlord is a case of seen it before, seen it better, and the stuff we haven’t seen is going to end up more frustrating and hassle than it is worth.

    Avoid Turning Point, even if it means running in front of a taxi.

    The second thing you need to know? It’s appalling.

    Undoubtedly a valiant attempt by Monte Cristo to bring simplistic party games to the PSP, even if it falls completely flat on its face.

    You might be more interested to know what Driv3r isn’t though – a good game.

    A lot of the good intentions in Psychotoxic are just lost in the mess of it all. We might have recommended the story to fans of sci-fi B-movies, but frankly after a few interesting cut-scenes the story goes absolutely nowhere for hours before wrapping-up in a not-entirely-satisfying manner.

    The only good thing we can say about Beyblade GRevolution is that the time you spend actually playing it is time you'll spend weighing up your life, the area you live in and how much better everything else is than this piss poor excuse for a video game is.

    Aurora Watching is rubbish – don’t even think about buying it.
    • 38 Metascore
    • 40 Critic Score
    If you’re thinking of buying this because it’s cheap, don’t bother, as even at its budget price it’s still not worth the money.

    An unmitigated disaster. Terribly designed both technically and in terms of gameplay, it’s a miserable, useless, joyless experience entirely bereft of fun.
    • 35 Metascore
    • 41 Critic Score
    Budget release or no, this is a pretty disappointing effort and a waste of time for most.

    George of the Jungle is basic at its best and irritatingly flawed at its worst, relying almost entirely on its license to sell to an audience perhaps unaware of the genre’s past glories.

    We really do have to implore you, don’t let your curiosity get the better of you. Bad Day L.A. is dire.

    Deal or No Deal is simply one of the most dull and short-lived videogames of all time, barely fit for mobile phones let alone the mighty DS.

    Stargate Online TCG is easily one of the most complicated games of its type in terms of the number of modifiers in play at any given time, but a thorough tutorial and well-devised interface actually make playing a breeze.

    All we can say is that this certainly ought to please hardcore RPG players and veteran nostalgists alike.
