    Blazing Angels: Squadrons of WWII is a marginally better game on the PS3, but it's just not enough one year down the track. Good for a rent.

    It's a simple game but if taken it on its own merits, The Club should satisfy anyone with an old-school interest in high scores.

    There are better consoles to play Need for Speed: Carbon on, the game just isn't all that enjoyable with the Wii's control system.

    Scare me. Shock me. Shake me. Take me to a place where horror is able to splurge into any gamer's mind and rattle it around playfully, frightfully, terribly. That's what horror gaming should be like. Haunting Ground really is a fun game to play and is another one of Capcom’s gems.

    Probably one of the most unimaginative titles branded with the Civilization name.

    Comic fans will get the most out of DC Universe Online, and it is a fun, if shallow MMO. However, once the level cap is reached, there is little reason to continue, making it a game you probably won't be spending a lot of time with.

    Top Spin has been ported to the PS2 fairly faithfully, but the game is already two years old and looked better on the Xbox.

    There's nothing groundbreaking here, but it's gross, fun and perhaps best saved for the kiddies.
    • 67 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    The Godfather II may be an offer you'll refuse, but there's enough here to interest someone who would like a sophisticated twist on the sandbox formula.

    Full Auto 2: Battlelines barely improves upon its average predecessor.
    • 67 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    The best retro compilation ever, even without many big names.

    Warhammer 40,000: Squad Command on the PSP just pips the DS version but regardless of some solid ideas and implementations, it's still a missed opportunity.
    • 67 Metascore
    • 65 Critic Score
    The game features some fantastic ideas, but most of that is kicked in the arse with the terrible execution of important game elements that actually make games good – graphics, sound and camera issues, for example.

    Sega Superstars Tennis mixes tennis and mini games and unfortunately doesn't excel at either.

    CrossworDS is a surprisingly solid game and a fantastic addition to the touch generations series.
    • 67 Metascore

    Outside of the few nice gameplay options, Faces of War offers absolutely nothing to gamers that are looking for a fulfilling World War strategy game.
    • 66 Metascore

    A competent mini-game collection, with some nice nostalgia for Mario & Sonic fans and plenty of waggle.

    While nothing particularly special is definitely the best Terminator game for a long time.

    On 3DS, Sonic Generations is a more half-hearted anniversary affair which somehow misses the point of the whole exercise.

    There are far better shooters for the Xbox, including previous Ghost Recon games. Save your money. It would be far better spent put towards an Xbox 360.

    The lack of innovation in Crisis Zone is the real downfall of the title.
    • 66 Metascore

    There is enough of a package here to justify a decent portable game and a nice 3-D quest, the likes of which have never been seen on a handheld. If only Medievil: Resurrection spent a little more time cleaning off the cobwebs.

    Shadowrun is a decent multiplayer with a great idea that needed some more time to be fully utilised.

    Ty 3 isn't a bad game, taking its target demographic and budget price into account.

    Final Fantasy's appearance on the Xbox 360 is basically pointless. Unless you're a die hard fan of the title then it's advised you look elsewhere. There's nothing overly wrong with the game - it just hasn't dated well.

    Where many games tend to stick to well trodden gameplay paths when dealing with well know intellectual property, Duck Amuck is brimming with originality.
    • 66 Metascore
    • 65 Critic Score
    It lacks the depth, polish and implemention of top tennis games but the humour and game modes allow to Outlaw Tennis to stand on its own. And given the price, some of the flaws are easy to overlook.
    • 66 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    As a package, F.E.A.R. Files is certainly a decent effort but it isn't going to appeal to anyone who isn't after more of the same.
    • 66 Metascore

    Though by no means a very bad or broken game, WRC: FIA World Rally Championship just isn't particularly remarkable and is short on replay value.
    • 66 Metascore
    • 65 Critic Score
    Astonishing graphics do not compensate for underwhelming gameplay.
