It's a nice idea, but it's very limited in what you're able to create. What a shame. [Mar 2011, p.102]

There is some fun to be had swinging your way through the city and bumping bad guy skulls together; it's just a shame the whole package wasn't stitched together with a little more flair and imagination.

Ultimately scuppered by its lack of variety. [Christmas 2012, p.106]

A game that has clearly had a lot of time put into it. The handling, the graphics and the general feel of the game are fine. Problem is, the actual game content feels like an afterthought, as if the development studio suddenly thought, "Oooh, we haven't actually got anything for the player to do. Quick, stick a short story in there, put loads of swearing in it and pad it with street races."

With more balanced controls for the Remote, this would have been so much better. [Nov 2007, p.79]

If you like MySims and use the DSi's camera a lot, you might get some fun out of this. [Dec 2009, p.97]

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

One for the Wario hardcore only. [June 2007, p.95]

An interesting and stylish game that unfortunately lacks the charm necessary to cover the problems of the port.

Fans of the films will find plenty to love about the production, but thanks to bog-standard gameplay, this is definitely more of an experience than a game.

Deeply average action adventuring which is fine for fans but be warned: it's very repetitive. [Sept 2010, p.88]

Less fun to play than it is to watch. [Apr 2014, p.91]

An overly complicated puzzler that tries to do too much with a simple idea. [Feb 2010, p.88]

We'd much rather sit down with the actual book, but there are some nice ideas here. [Apr 2010, p.94]

The introduction outstays its welcome, but Puddle flows into a more interesting game than you might expect. [Jan 2013, p.111]

Neat career mode, but controls are vital in tennis games and this is disappointing. [Apr 2011, p.101]

Basically rhythm action classic "Elite Beat Agents" with Looney Tunes characters. [Sept 2008, p.99]

Zen Pinball remains top of the tables in this most recent iteration - it's just a shame that it's such an effort to get into playing the thing.

A real let-down. There are some great ideas in here but they're just not executed very well. Stick to "Resident Evil 4."

It was great back in the day but time hasn't been too kind to Arkanoid. [Nov 2009, p.102]

This will only really appeal to you if you're a pinball nut. [Dec 2008, p.100]

This is undoubtedly a well thought-out handheld port, but it's still slightly lacking for the changes. One for the kids. [March 2013, p.68]

If you must have this game, this is the version to get. [July 2010, p.95]

It's by no means as bad as you may have heard. [Apr 2009, p.89]

Undemanding fun in short bursts but very shallow and repetitive.

The use of cover versions will instantly turn off most songbirds. [Christmas 2013, p.84]

Fun, but limited. [June 2010, p.88]

The game you loved, primarily unchanged. [Dec 2013, p.81]
