The Force Unleashed does a good job of, er, unleashing the force, but beneath the flashy powers and lightsabers this is a tame and outdated game. [Issue#56, p.67]

Bone idle. Soulless. Death warmed up. Putting the grim in Grim Reaper. Afterlife? No life. We could go on, but we can't will ourselves to. Avoid.

Probably the most interesting version you could pay for. [Mar 2011, p.69]

Beautiful to look at, very nice to play, but disappointingly light on content. Perfect for launch day, and maybe the day after, too, but it feels so limited.

Playing this after "Mario Galaxy 2"? God has a got a sense of humour after all. [July 2010, p.77]

More of a light snack than a hearty meal. [Aug 2009, p.74]

Could and should have been a lot better, if only it wasn't crippled by technical letdowns and questionable design choices. [Mar 2008, p.58]

Another excellent head-scratcher for the DS, with great music, slightly over-complicated graphics and loads of cool stuff to unlock. [JPN Import; January 2007, p.76]

A marked improvement on Crash's last game and good-looking too. If it was just a bit tighter in level design and control, it would be truly great. [Christmas 2008, p.62]

Virtually the same game as FIFA 10 but the new modes add heaps of longevity. [May 2010, p.66]

This is brimming over with smart and snazzy ideas, but it fails to deliver simple gameplay thrills. [Sept 2007, p.62]

All the aural pleasure of a Newton's cradle mixed with the explosive satisfaction of Mii-controlled, cannon-propelled marbles. What's not to love? [Sept 2008, p.66]

With Wii U around the corner, FIFA 12 on Wii was never going to be a revolution. The new FIFA City mode is just wallpaper for what's just FIFA 11 in new clothes.

Still a substantial package - especially on the online-starved Wii - but messy with it. Try GoldenEye instead - it was built for Wii and is all the better for it.

Classic puzzling, but essential only for die-hard fans or genre newbies without a PC. [Feb 2011, p.74]

Although enjoyable in spurts, this is lacking in any real challenge and there are no multiplayer antics to save it. [Apr 2008, p.68]

A brilliant, beautiful adventure that takes everything good about Tomb Raider and polishes it. One of the Wii gmaes of the year. [Jan 2009, p.54]

An improvement on the first. [Feb 2008, p.63]

Immensely charming for what it is. [Mar 2009, p.61]

The skewed logic and stilted dialogue remain, but this is still an enjoyable silly point 'n' clicker. [Aug 2009, p.77]

Throwaway but very funny, which seems reasonable for a measly 200 points. [May 2010, p.74]

There's a better party at Activision's house. [Christmas 2009, p.57]

A big slap on the wrist for all the writing. [June 2009, p.61]

Longevity is questionable and some will find it too bitty, but there are few titles on Wii so full of childish glee. If this is Frontier off the rails, we can't wait to see them on track. [Christmas 2007, p.54]

The best example of the genre we've seen in ages. [Christmas 2009, p.70]

Unmatched interactivity. [Nov 2006, p.74]

It's boring. [Aug 2010, p.76]

Not particularly original or polished, but we found it hard to put down. [May 2009, p.58]
