A fantastic music creation tool for DS owners and pro producers alike. [Dec 2008, p.92]

Unless you're gagging for a handheld strategy game and have already played Nintendo's offering, it's not worth taking the risk. [Jan 2009, p.99]

Guitar Rock Tour is a great effort. It's a Guitar Hero beater (just about) but with more songs it would have been pretty special.

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

Worth a go if you fancy something a bit different, but don't expect any huge thrills. [Nov 2008, p.101]

File this one under 'niche puzzler', if you've got the patience, that is. [Christmas 2008, p.103]

As dedicated PES fans, it means a lot when we say that FIFA 09 is the best football game on the Wii at the moment. Game on, Konami.

Appreciate Twin Strike for what it is - good, clean budget-priced fun - and you won't be disappointed. [Nov 2008, p.105]

Unlike the Wii game, it's rather slow moving but you'll still find yourself with more tasks than you could possibly do in one day and like Animal Crossing and Harvest Moon, it will keep you busy for a good while.

MySims Kingdom is all about the experience and it takes you on a charming journey where you get to meet and greet some brilliant characters. Yet, as an adventure, MySims is now in the company of the best that Wii has to offer and it just can't live with the likes of Galaxy and Twilight Princess. Still, provided you have some heart, this Kingdom packs more than enough personality to make it well worth a visit.

A good attempt at a tower defence game but it just lacks that little extra magic.

A decent blast for younger gamers and we like that NERF gun!

The control system and mission structure makes it unfairly annoying at times. [Mar 2009, p.88]

Rotohex isn't quite as enjoyable as the other two Art Style games but that's not to say it isn't a worthy purchase for dedicated puzzle fans in the market for a smart, relaxing title to while away the hours to. [Jan 2009, p.101]

The comedy is top-notch as ever. [Christmas 2008, p.99]

Providing you can afford the full kit, this is the ultimate rhythm action title. If you can't, it's merely 'brilliant.'

How this utterly random jumble of ideas even got off the drawing board is beyond us. [Christmas 2008, p.102]

It is, and always has been, a horribly vanilla platformer with very little soul to it. [Christmas 2008, p.103]

Providing you're up for the challenge, this is the high point of the DS Castlevania series. [Feb 2009, p.92]

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.

Some great recipes but the experience is marred by fiddly cooking games. [Christmas 2008, p.87]

It's completely broken. [Aug 2009, p.99]

It's just great fun. [Christmas 2008, p.101]

Bold, original and bizarre, it's better than we anticipated but ultimately too half-baked to fully endorse. [Dec 2008, p.62]

But if you dream of falling blocks, the the huge number of gameplay modes and fantastically addictive online play makes this an essential purchase.

We loved it, but we understand a lot of people might not. A niche experience then, but a great one. [Sept 2008, p.88]

As clever as it is stylish, as darkly humourous as it is challenging and as infinitely playable as it is addictive, we simply love World Of Goo to pieces because it's everything that a good game should be.

The best Art Style game and a great WiiWare puzzler. [Jan 2009, p.101]
