    Only two of the remixes are any good, but even these aren't worth your time. [June 2008, p.84]

    It shows glimmers of fun, but a short story mode and lack of replay factor stifle it. [Sept 2011, p.98]

    • 36 Critic Score
    Five dull offerings ranging from racing to shooting games, none of which are worth discussing in any real depth. [July 2010, p.95]

    It takes a genuinely profound kind of idiocy to turn such a romping good series into something so leaden. [Feb 2014, p.91]

    Awful, just awful. It's a dirty, cheap, slapped-together cash-in title that's not woth the round plastic disc it comes on. [Apr 2008, p.92]

    Ugly, unplayable and not even close to being fun. [Nov 2007, p.92]

    Extremely basic stuff, this is one WiiWare game that'll have kids bored fairly quickly. [Jan 2010, p.87]

    You'll chuck your controller around in frustration. [Christmas 2010, p.94]

    An old PC game ported to the DS to cash in on people waning to bash their heads in. [May 2010, p.85]

    A tired, old game genre stretched out to within an inch of its life. Dull, dull, dull. [Feb 2011, p.97]
    • Official Nintendo Magazine UK
    • 38 Metascore
    • 32 Critic Score
    A bad conversion of an almost year-old Xbox game. Vengeance is playable but it's a massively disappointing Wii debut for the Far Cry series, and the worst FPS on the console so far. [Mar 2007, p.84]

    • tbd Metascore
    • 31 Critic Score
    It's amazing that it's so far from finished. We're not sure if it's the developer, the publisher or both, but someone should be ashamed of themselves. Awful.
    • 42 Metascore
    • 31 Critic Score
    Quite simply a rotten game with woefully little variation in gameplay and turgid mechanics. There's very little fun here an dit's cetainly a long way from 'cowabunga', dude. [May 2007, p.78]

    While you can teach an old dog new tricks, it's still a dog. [Nov 2011, p.95]
    • tbd Metascore
    • 31 Critic Score
    A very basic point-and-click crippled by non-interaction and a rather weak script. [Apr 2012, p.103]
    • Official Nintendo Magazine UK
    • 47 Metascore
    • 31 Critic Score
    Had so much potential, but this is ultimately a waste of Points. There are countless better games out there.
