    Classic puzzling from the glory days of adventure gaming, but the truth is that it's old and very clearly showing its age. [Christmas 2006, p.92]

    • 60 Critic Score
    It's as close to perfect as a darts game can be but, thanks to the nature of darts, that means it's sitll a bit dull, really. [Feb 2008, p.84]

    • 50 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    An innovative and challenging take on an old formula. [Nov 2006, p.100]

    Lacks the spark of passion or layer of imagination that would have made it stand out. [May 2008, p.107]

    • 53 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    We like new gaming concepts, and B-Boy is both unusual and innovative - but it's not deep enough to sustain your interest. [Oct 2006, p.89]
    • Official Playstation 2 Magazine UK
    • 72 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    A non-offensive god-sim packed full of laughs and originality. Buy it. [July 2008, p.87]
    • Official Playstation 2 Magazine UK
    • 47 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Flawed, scruffy and inconsistent, but the small moments of magic [do] some way make up for the lack of overall polish. [July 2008, p.64]
    • Official Playstation 2 Magazine UK
    • 60 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    Ugly as sin, with clunky mechanics to boot. Not great value compared to other PS3 shooters. [July 2008, p.87]
    • Official Playstation 2 Magazine UK
    • 55 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    No amount of sharp gunplay can redeem Haze's cliched script and patchy execution. [July 2008, p.86]
    • Official Playstation 2 Magazine UK
    • 47 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    One of the poorest movie tie-ins to date, IM: TOV is ugly, tedious, boring and broken. [June 2008, p.60]

    • 80 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Needs to make serious progress if 'Gran' isn't to become an indication of age. [June 2008, p.87]
    • Official Playstation 2 Magazine UK
    • 72 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Worth weathering the doldrums for the good bits, but don't rush through or you'll miss them. [May 2008, p.103]
    • Official Playstation 2 Magazine UK
    • 60 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Nightmarish, gut-wrenching, and frustrating, but still a tempting prospect as long as you're not looking for the next "Resident Evil 4." [Aug 2007, p.78]
    • Official Playstation 2 Magazine UK
    • 65 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    The only good thing to say about the scrapping is the quality of the gore. [May 2008, p.102]
    • Official Playstation 2 Magazine UK
    • 62 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Hopelessly repetitive and only offers the same amount of cheap thrills as every other Dynasty Warriors type game. [July 2008, p.90]
    • Official Playstation 2 Magazine UK
    • 70 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    A solid serving of tennis-lite, but in the face of "Everybody's Tennis," can only really be recommended to the Sega hardcore. [Apr 2008, p.72]
    • Official Playstation 2 Magazine UK
    • 50 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    A poor excuse for an expansion from a poor excuse for a sequel from an utterly knackered series. [May 2008, p.82]
    • Official Playstation 2 Magazine UK
    • 62 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    Designed to satisfy only the very easy-to-please, and therefore bound to disappoint anyone expecting a game of real bite. [May 2007, p.80]
    • Official Playstation 2 Magazine UK
    • 77 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    An ideal first game for Buzz! virgins or film buffs, but seasoned contestants will soon tire of it. [Dec 2007, p.88]
    • Official Playstation 2 Magazine UK
    • 74 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Likable as its twin leads are, AOT's gameplay is hobbled by unbalanced guns and AI that's far too sharp to be fun. [Apr 2008, p.102]
    • Official Playstation 2 Magazine UK
    • 69 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    There are moments that'll have you on the edge of your seat, but unwieldy combat and easy enemies takes away the fear. [May 2008, p.70]
    • Official Playstation 2 Magazine UK
    • 54 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    In its attempt not to spoil the TV show, Lost on PS3 simply skirts all the good stuff. [Apr 2008, p.103]
    • Official Playstation 2 Magazine UK
    • 72 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Straight arcade action with no depth; play for points, though, and you'll relish it. [Feb 2008, p.103]
    • Official Playstation 2 Magazine UK
    • 63 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Flamboyant fun, but doesn't feel like you're playing real football. [Mar 2008, p.103]
    • Official Playstation 2 Magazine UK
    • 56 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    A repetitive RPG-by-numbers. Only grind veterans will find a vague sense of enjoyment. [July 2008, p.91]
    • Official Playstation 2 Magazine UK
    • 64 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    An enjoyable and enchanting adventure with a few flaws but fountains of fun, especially (but not exclusively) for kids. [Mar 2008, p.70]
    • Official Playstation 2 Magazine UK
    • 73 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Extreme, yes; pursuit, lots of it; fun, mostly; but essential? Not really. [Jan 2008, p.123]
    • Official Playstation 2 Magazine UK
    • 56 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    As a straight kart racer, Zero Gravity performs well. There's just not enough depth and content here to propel it higher. [Mar 2008, p.76]
    • Official Playstation 2 Magazine UK
    • 66 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    A varied mix of disciplines and characters make this an entertaining if largely unspectacular fighter. [Dec 2006, p.107]
    • Official Playstation 2 Magazine UK
    • 53 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Nothing that raises the pulse or even peaks the interest. [Mar 2008, p.78]
