Citizens Of Space’s endless well of enthusiasm makes pointing out these flaws feel like kicking a puppy, but they’re impossible to ignore. It’s not a massive game, but it’s still overly ambitious – the weight of its duff ideas threatens to drown its respectable share of great ones. A leaner, tighter, quieter experience would be easier to love. [Issue#181, p.91]- Official Xbox Magazine UK

Play is built around evading attack, then countering with frenzied sword stabs or a selection of spells, so it's a shame that the all-important dodge move doesn't quite work.- Official Xbox Magazine UK

It's a furry platformer with combat that suffers through repetition. Just like the first game, Alice doesn't quite match up to its own grand ambitions - let alone the classic stature of the source material. After 11 years, they should have got it right by now.- Official Xbox Magazine UK

A novel, if somewhat stressful, take on what is a fairly familiar theme. [June 2018, p.76]- Official Xbox Magazine UK

A by-the-numbers recreation of the show. [Feb 2012, p.103]- Official Xbox Magazine UK

As a budget, somewhat unambitious retooling of the Wolfenstein engine, Youngblood offers impactful shootouts that showcase some truly brilliant guns. Yet by aiming for co-op grind, this offshoot loses the charm of BJ’s blasters. A slight misfire, then, but the sisterly slaughter on display still has its moments.

Has pacing issues, but there's a reason it's been a party favourite for the last 21 years. [Oct 2016, p.97]- Official Xbox Magazine UK

Origins is too good to return to the Assassin's Creed games of yesterday. [June 2018, p.86]- Official Xbox Magazine UK

At worst frustrating, usually just reminiscent of better, more innovative platformers. [Sept 2015, p.99]- Official Xbox Magazine UK

Guns spit out bullets with little heft and explosions feel like gentle farts in the wind rather than loud, powerful releases of energy.- Official Xbox Magazine UK

As a glimpse into the life of a dysfunctional family, Three Fourths Home is a success - but while its dialogue has the ring of truth, its narrative feels slight and incomplete. [Feb 2016, p.80]- Official Xbox Magazine UK

By turns scrappy, hilarious, wearying and completely barmy. [Sept 2015, p.105]- Official Xbox Magazine UK

It's packed with strong moments, but the finale feels disjointed. [Nov 2014, p.85]- Official Xbox Magazine UK

Child friendly but not alienating to adults - this is an enjoyable adventure for one or two.- Official Xbox Magazine UK

Brimming with charm, but it was clearly designed with PC gaming in mind. Playing it with the Xbox One controller instead of a mouse becomes something of an exercise in patience. [Nov 2014, p.87]- Official Xbox Magazine UK

The cost is too high and the extras too slim to make this excellent. [Feb 2016, p.86]- Official Xbox Magazine UK

Splatterhouse starts off strong on a path of giddy puerility, always seeming on the cusp of offering more than misogyny and punching all the blood out of monsters - or at least giving you a sly wink to let you in on the joke - but it never actually comes.- Official Xbox Magazine UK

A further downer is that the campaign missions are relatively easy to rush through. [May 2012, p.99]- Official Xbox Magazine UK

It still has charm and invention - but in shorter supply than the preceding episode. It's also stymied by a claustrophobic, repetitive environment that leans on to-and-fro busywork. [March 2016, p.84]- Official Xbox Magazine UK

Challenge mode is a real fan-pleaser and the fastest rally stages are fun and pretty. But it feels clumsy at low-speed, has some severe technical issues and rallycross events are poor. [March 2016, p.85]- Official Xbox Magazine UK

A tough cookie. As a twitch game, it suffers from poor feedback and imprecision, but its snappy pace keeps you hooked. [March 2016, p.86]- Official Xbox Magazine UK
