    A conflicted idea. [Feb 2014, p.82]

    RPG fans will find lots to enjoy. [Feb 2013, p.85]

    This flawed gem could have been a classic to rival the games that inspired it. Like its characters, it's well intentioned, but ultimately commits too many sins.
    • 70 Metascore
    • 79 Critic Score
    Among the toughest games on the console and none the worse for it. Want to hear what your own screams sound like? You won't find better on the 3DS.
    • 50 Metascore
    • 45 Critic Score
    We applaud Battle For Earth's unique approach to simplistic fighting, but its lack of content and depth won't impress anyone but the most junior gamers.
    • 85 Metascore
    • 84 Critic Score
    A fantastically well put-together game hamstrung only by the inherent limitations of the sport itself. No other Wii U title offers such great value for money.
    • 50 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    A fun farming sim that suffers at the hands of ridiculous pricing. Only lunatics will hand over 30 notes for this.
    • 65 Metascore
    • 59 Critic Score
    QubicGames has made an average game and ruined thousands of GCSE English essays. Cheers, guys.
    • 76 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Professional, fully featured and a tad bodacious, this undoubtedly sets a high bar for fitness games on Wii U.
    • 56 Metascore
    • 28 Critic Score
    A prime example of how to disrespect the fans of something as big as Transformers: a £50 game that can be finished on a single GamePad charge. Yuck.
    • 78 Metascore
    • 86 Critic Score
    Look past the tilting troubles and Spin Cycle purifies Curve's original idea with its condensed puzzling. Plenty of plop for your buck, too.

    ONM Coroner's Report: Patient suffered a psychotic breakdown while playing this game. No treatment possible.
    • 70 Metascore
    • 64 Critic Score
    A classic Saito number that is interesting, compelling and inevitably, just a little too odd to recommend to everyone.
    • 63 Metascore
    • 68 Critic Score
    Sega fans will enjoy this solid port but it's far from a smooth ride. If you can stomach the rough edges this has enough individual character to stand alone.
    • 66 Metascore
    • 64 Critic Score
    As it is, it's just an average port of a game that's just about hanging onto the legacy of some great game design from a few years ago. A little bit more love next time, please.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Years of slow innovation have resulted in a game worthy of the LOTR name. Probably not a classic, but the journey there and back again is a treat.
    • 52 Metascore
    • 37 Critic Score
    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.
    • 48 Metascore
    • 40 Critic Score
    Unless you like hammering the A button for eight minutes at a time while getting a headache, stay well away. Even young kids will get bored.
    • 61 Metascore
    • 68 Critic Score
    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.
    • 57 Metascore
    • 57 Critic Score
    A potentially great title let down by a terrible camera and one of the most bewildering controller decisions we can remember. Get the Wii version instead.
    • 76 Metascore
    • 90 Critic Score
    The attention to detail, the personality, the tiny touches; this feels like a game that someone loved making, and you'll love playing it as a result.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 40 Critic Score
    A sporadic, fragmented mess of Bond history spliced with brainless shooting that feels like a rushed Call Of Duty copycat. Get Black Ops 2. Don't get this.
    • 60 Metascore
    • 75 Critic Score
    Sing Party shows off the huge potential the Wii U has for games of this genre. A few fixes could make it definitive but right now it remains simply solid.
    • 70 Metascore
    • 68 Critic Score
    The introduction outstays its welcome, but Puddle flows into a more interesting game than you might expect. [Jan 2013, p.111]
    • 71 Metascore
    • 58 Critic Score
    Nano Assault isn't awful but flying around the beautiful Nano cosmos is nowhere near as thrilling as it should be. [Jan 2013, p.111]
    • 80 Metascore
    • 65 Critic Score
    A fun puzzler, but why should fans spend more money on a game they already played? Stingy stuff. [Jan 2013, p.111]

    Feels archaic compared to the likes of Face Raiders. Shame. [Jan 2013, p.110]

    Feels archaic compared to the likes of Face Raiders. Shame. [Jan 2013, p.110]
    • 49 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    A potential cult hit betrayed by framerate issues and sluggish controls. [Jan 2013, p.110]
    • tbd Metascore
    • 55 Critic Score
    Another disappointing case of a developer running a feather duster along last year's game and releasing it as new. [Jan 2013, p.110]
