    It's a genuine opinion-splitter. [July 2014, p.80]

    Wait for Shin Megami Tensei 4. [Nov 2013, p.88]

    An action game in the sense that everything depends on your actions, Hana Samurai is hamstrung only by its length. If it were a bit more fleshed out, this would be among the very best of the 3DS eShop.

    It's sorely lacking an online leaderboard as well. [May 2010, p.91]

    Crams in as much as possible and pushes the Wii to its limits. A fitting swansong for Wii wrestling. [Christmas 2012, p.104]

    SSX Blur looks great and plays brilliantly. The controls don't try to make you feel like a boarder - they just make you feel in touch with the game, and that's what the Wii is all about. [Apr 2007, p.76]

    So familiar it's basically an old friend by now. If you've liked it before, you'll like it now.

    The relatively high price is a bit of a turn-off. [Sept 2012, p.107]

    Great while it lasts, but gives you an immense feeling of guilt afterwards. [Aug 2010, p.93]

    It goes without saying that WWE 12 is mainly for diehards who want an update on last year's title. While the gameplay hasn't changed enough for casual fans to update there are enough customisation options to keep fans of the squared circle busy until next year.

    It offers nothing new but it's a Guitar Hero game with nearly 50 of the best songs in the series' history, so that's not a bad thing.

    • 75 Critic Score
    The sheer number of characters and fighting styles on offer mean you'll be practicing it for months to come. [Apr 2009, p.87]

    It's not quite as well-rounded as "Mario & Sonic" but still offers some great gameplay. [July 2008, p.96]

    There is simply no excuse for the moronic squad members who appear to have hopped into Medal of Honor from the nearest pond. [Feb 2008, p.72]

    A great expansion for the DS game. [June 2010, p.94]

    Even those who've been here many times before will want to get stuck in again. [Christmas 2007, p.84]

    A brave attempt to make stylus-controlled racing work which pays off surprisingly well. [Apr 2009, p.82]
    • 73 Metascore
    • 88 Critic Score
    Five-a-side is a great addition. Just as well, as the rest is mostly similar to last year's game.
    • 73 Metascore
    • 75 Critic Score
    This game is all about trial and error. You will die frequently and tragically. [Sept 2014, p.82]

    A wonderfully refreshing revamp. [March 2012, p.102]
    • 73 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    This is an average-to-good hack and slash that is unfortunately hobbled by some off-the-shelf RPG elements and a well-meaning - if ultimately tiresome - girlfriend management system.
    • 73 Metascore
    • 82 Critic Score
    A superior selection of 8-bit hits makes Remix 2 a fine sequel. [July 2014, p.84]

    A decent tower defence game that serves as a solid introduction to the genre. [Christmas 2009, p.103]

    If you like your fighting retro then Ultimate Mortal Kombat is the game for you, and the addition of "Puzzle Kombat" and Wi-Fi combat makes it a great package. [Feb 2008, p.70]

    A fine follow-up that does everything the original did and much more besides. [Mar 2010, p.91]

    Agreeable. [Feb 2011, p.96]

    This game is absolutely charming and a lovely surprise. [Issue#116, p.84]

    Lovely art design and catchy tunes make this a pleasure to play, but it lacks the precision of, say, Elite Beat Agents or Maestro! Jump In Music.
    • 73 Metascore
    • 69 Critic Score
    A conflicted idea. [Feb 2014, p.82]

    Yu-Gi-Oh! fans will lap this up, but it's the least beginner-friendly game we've ever played. [May 2009, p.88]
