    There are glimmers of promise in the 3DS version, but the execution is so bad and the graphics engine so lacklustre, that you'll find it hard to squeeze more than a few drops of genuine pleasure out of this cold, grey stone. [Sept 2012, p.107]

    The unfortunate fact is that Bubble Bobble has been done too many times before. Yes, it's playable and challenging, but it's also old and far too simplistic for hte modern gaming era. [Mar 2007, p.77]

    GT Pro Series has got decent cars and passable handling, but the below average physics and utterly shameful visuals give this a cheap, unfinished feel. [Feb 2007, p.84]

    The Wii Remote hasn't been used well here and it's trickier than playing it for real. And it's Jenga - do we really need this? [Apr 2008, p.88]

    This is as lazy a use of a license as we've seen recently and this is from the company that made the Smurfs 2 game. [Feb 2014, p.91]

    We're not sure we'd even pay 69p for this great big pile of Sith (sp?). Search your feelings, you know this to be poo. [March 2014, p.88]

    Hastily constructed, poorly thought out and deeply unsatisfying: an endless runner you'll want to end. [Christmas 2012, p.111]

    Dull and barely related to footie. [Feb 2011, p.93]

    The other Rabbids mini-game compilations may have been light on longevity, but at least they provided a laugh. Rabbids Land doesn't even manage this.

    Much like a real sandcastle, it's fun for an hour or so then becomes a washout. [Oct 2010, p.97]

    The increased precision of Wii MotionPlus is wasted and the result is a game you should steer clear of. [May 2010, p.85]

    A soulless title with poor mini-games, this is a party that needs no pooping.

    Impressive for 10 minutes or so, but it lacks any replay value whatsoever. [Mar 2011, p.104]
