    Taking a simple formula and injecting it with cruelty is rarely a good way to win new fans. Frustration, thy spirit animal is a digital frog.

    A slight iPhone game that feels even slighter on Wii. Get Airport Mania instead. [Oct 2011, p.77]

    A novel update on a classic game, although it's not quite a classic by itself. [Oct 2011, p.77]

    It might be simple, repetitive and nowhere near worth the asking price, but Urban Champion is a pleasant enough retro diversion for half an hour or so. [Oct 2011, p.76]

    Ignore the pong of rotting flesh and dive in. [Oct 2011, p.76]

    Congratulations, Nordcurrent, you've made the worst game of the year. [Oct 2011, p.75]

    Shonky controls, confusing layout, boring grey graphics, rubbish animation. [Oct 2011, p.75]

    This platformer-racer's cartoon graphics mask some knuckle-chewing difficulty. A little gem. [Oct 2011, p.74]

    Spongebob doesn't have the personality to pull it all together. [Oct 2011, p.71]

    • 52 Critic Score
    The minigames are repetitive and won't keep more game-savvy kids busy for long, but if you know a DS-owning pre-schooler this is at least fairly wholesome. [Oct 2011, p.71]

    Not awful, then, but crushingly generic. [Oct 2011, p.70]

    Survive the frustration and it'll soon be replaced by boredom, leaving you feeling like you really have just had your time stolen. [Oct 2011, p.70]

    Like a chestburster, Infestation arrives out of nowhere to great surprise. Unlike a chestburster, it's dinky alien thrills are very much welcomed. [Oct 2011, p.66]

    • 72 Critic Score
    An excellent RPG but a poor port. [Oct 2011, p.65]
    • 64 Metascore
    • 68 Critic Score
    Bizarre controls aside, this is an unusually thoughtful port that at least attempts to do something different. [Oct 2011, p.63]

    More rewarding and far less cynical than the stacks of horse-pet games. [Oct 2011, p.62]

    • 77 Metascore
    • 85 Critic Score
    Lacks the scale or drama of your average Dragon Quest, but does offer compulsive monster raising. [Oct 2011, p.60]

    • 30 Critic Score
    Not just the giant cheapo pile of rubbish we expected - just a tiny, feeble, overpriced piece of crap. A genuinely awful addition to the 3DS library. [Oct 2011, p.58]

    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.

    Xevious on 3DS was inevitable. Shame they didn't do anything with it. [Sept 2011, p.77]

    There's no charm, no innovation and no style, but it is a moderately entertaining game. [Sept 2011, p.76]

    Get this if you're tired of the same old boring shooting - every bullet counts. [Sept 2011, p.76]

    Which dummy thought dumping you back to the main menu screen after each round was a good idea? [Sept 2011, p.73]

    It's false economy to even consider picking this up. [Sept 2011, p.73]

    Ideally suited for very young children with short attention spans, but woefully short. [Sept 2011, p.73]

    There's really no excuse to get this. [Sept 2011, p.72]

    Even non-Potter fans may find they get some enjoyment out of this. [Sept 2011, p.72]

    Makes us wish it had never been invented. [Sept 2011, p.71]

    • 51 Critic Score
    The fighting's better than expected, but it's outdated, unimaginative and you'd want to wait for it to be cheaper. [Sept 2011, p.71]
