    We know the subject matter is huge robots thumping other huge robots, but it doesn't have to be as mindless as this. [Sept 2009, p.67]

    A very pleasant diversion and a great start for genre newbies. [Aug 2009, p.75]

    The game's entirely stylus controlled, which generally works well, but it can descend into incoherent screen-swiping during combat. [Aug 2009, p.77]

    Rock solidly made and full of evil-flavoured charm, but you can't help but wish this had been so much more. The Little King still rules Wii. [Aug 2009, p.58]
    • 76 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    An old classic, with the emphasis on old. Still scares and enthralls, but the puzzle design is tired and the conversion is shockingly lazy. [Oct 2009, p.60]

    It's slick, it's fun and it's a Stay Puft-sized treat for fans of the series. [Sept 2009, p.60]

    Contains both ghosts and busting, but neither is as fun as it should be, despite good intentions. A chore to play through. Boo. [Sept 2009, p.68]

    You'd think that the Wii would be suited to a darts game. It may very well be, but this sure ain't it. [Apr 2008, p.67]

    Worth a look for puzzle fans. [Oct 2009, p.69]

    Totally hollow. [Sept 2009, p.73]

    It fails to hit the bull. [Aug 2009, p.76]

    So bad it's worth renting, just to see. [Christmas 2009, p.68]

    A terminal case. [Sept 2009, p.73]

    • 69 Critic Score
    By no means bad, but less than we'd expect from the MySims 'franchise'. Limps home a distant second place to the real thing. [Aug 2009, p.67]

    Multiplayer has the slight advantage. [Sept 2009, p.73]

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

    • 65 Metascore
    • 64 Critic Score
    A simple, solid strategy game, but one that never becomes more than the sum of its (easily clicked together) parts. [Sept 2009, p.67]

    • 45 Critic Score
    This is a love letter to 16-bit RPGs, albeit written in really messy handwriting. [Sept 2009, p.73]

    What Virtua Tennis lacks in panache or style, it makes up for with substance, including a comprehensive World Tour mode and the best tennis controls on Wii. [July 2009, p.62]
    • 55 Metascore
    • 69 Critic Score
    This is by turns frustrating, fun, exciting, dull, a technical achievement and a bit of a mess, but it's the most authentic Indy game yet.
    • 50 Metascore
    • 61 Critic Score
    A bit of a mish-mash, with environmental puzzles leading into distinct combat sections or explory bits. [Sept 2009, p.72]

    • 56 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    A package riddled with niggles. [Sept 2009, p.69]

    • 70 Metascore
    • 72 Critic Score
    It's a neat idea but it would shine with a greater variety of tracks. [Oct 2009, p.68]

    The best tennis game on Wii, and probably the most enjoyable one we've played on any console since Mario Tennis on N64. [Aug 2009, p.62]

    If golf's your game, this will keep you busy for ages. Decent new control modes, some good minigames, online play and real-time weather. [Aug 2009, p.70]

    It doesn't do anything new and it's not exactly challenging, but Starfy is a charming, funny game, and a pleasant enough way to while away a few hours. [Sept 2009, p.68]

    • 74 Critic Score
    The most complex RPG we've ever played. Takes a lot of time to get to grips with, let alone master, but it's worth the effort. [Sept 2009, p.71]

    Online play with rankings tables and Mii support is the big draw (no pun intended) here. [June 2009, p.73]

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

    The whole thing just feels a bit cheap. [Oct 2009, p.69]
