    Conflict: Denied Ops
    Conflict: Denied Ops is a mediocre first-person shooter with average gameplay. With so many flaws, this game is a tough sell at its current premium price.

    Damnation
    Damnation is an unfinished title with a concept and scale to rival some of the best shooters on the market. Sadly, the poor execution makes you wonder how great this title could have been.

    SWAT: Target Liberty
    Regardless of whether or not it was a good idea to make SWAT: Target Liberty for the PSP, it's quite a poor game either way.

    Dragoneer's Aria
    Dragoneer's Aria could have been a good game, but the dreadful battle system, lacklustre story and average presentation make it very difficult to recommend.

    Brunswick Pro Bowling
    Brunswick Pro Bowling could have been an extension of the bowling found in Wii Sports. Unfortunately, by making the game too difficult most players are best left to playing the bowling game that came free with their Wii.

    Stormrise
    StormRise is a project that has a great concept behind it, but fails to execute it with grace.

    Tiger Woods PGA Tour
    A far cry from the quality we've come to expect from the series over the years.

    Monster Jam
    Monster Jam isn't an overly bad game, it just doesn't do anything to differentiate itself from other racers - there are a few flaws which result in an average game.

    Warriors Orochi 2
    Unless you are a hardcore Warriors fanatic, Warriors Orochi 2 offers nothing more than button mashing monotony at its finest.
    • 52 Metascore
    • 45 Critic Score
    The First Templar
    While it is clear most of the time what the developers were trying to achieve, The First Templar is a bland, repetitive game that lacks the level of polish that most games nowadays have to be considered average.

    Full Auto 2: Battlelines
    Even if its only purpose was to lure speed-hungry maniacs off our roads, thereby saving hundreds of lives each year, it still wouldn't be worth it.

    PlayStation Move Ape Escape
    The slow, frustrating and difficult ride that is Ape Escape is another in a long line of failures of titles trying to moot the need for PlayStation Move.

    Empire Earth III
    Empire Earth III ultimately proves to be a predictable, tired, uninspired lump of a game.
    • 68 Metascore
    • 45 Critic Score
    Brink
    Unforgivable mistakes leave Brink sitting alone in the corner crying, thinking about where it all went wrong.
    • 49 Metascore
    • 45 Critic Score
    Heatseeker
    It's not that Heatseeker is a horrible game; it just never aspires to be anything more than an average one.
    • 37 Metascore
    • 45 Critic Score
    MetropolisMania 2
    While Metropolismania 2 tries to blend elements from Animal Crossing and Sim City, it is poorly executed. The game feels like a chore, gets repetitive and frustrating, and won’t maintain your interest for long.
    • 58 Metascore

    80 Days (2005)
    A serviceable adventure game that does a few things new but is unlikely to tide anyone over or bring back renown to the adventure genre.
    • 50 Metascore
    • 45 Critic Score
    Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell: Chaos Theory
    Splinter Cell: Chaos Theory tries so much, and yet fails on so many levels. Unless you're a true fan of the franchise, we'd advise you to steer clear.
    • 40 Metascore
    • 45 Critic Score
    Underground Pool
    If you’re a pool enthusiast who finds they can’t get a table at the pub, then Actua Pool will fix your cravings, just don’t go expecting anything special.

    The Incredible Hulk
    While older players will find some brainless fun in The Incredible Hulk, the simple gameplay would more likely to suited to a younger audience.
    • 53 Metascore
    • 40 Critic Score
    Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell 3D
    A bad port of a great game. It should never have been shoved onto the 3DS and it doesn't come close to the quality of the original Chaos Theory.
    • 38 Metascore
    • 40 Critic Score
    Vampire Rain
    Vampire Rain is simply a sloppy, masochistic mess that wastes an otherwise solid concept and functional form.
    • 53 Metascore
    • 40 Critic Score
    Lord of Arcana
    For gamers that are fascinated by the Monster Hunter Portable phenomenon our advice is to forget the imitator and head straight for the real deal.
    • 45 Metascore
    • 40 Critic Score
    Shadow the Hedgehog
    Shadow the Hedgehog could signal the death of Sonic spin offs, the title tries too hard to be impressive and ultimately fails miserably.
    • 48 Metascore
    • 40 Critic Score
    Beat Down: Fists of Vengeance
    Beat Down makes us feel bad - we wanted it to be good, Cavia put in the ideas that could have made the game good, but failed to deliver on the execution - the despicable quality of voice acting just seals the deal.
    • 55 Metascore
    • 40 Critic Score
    Genji: Days of the Blade
    Despite the fact it looks rather pretty, Genji: Days of the Blade is a poor effort that does just about everything worse than its predecessor.
    • 59 Metascore
    • 40 Critic Score
    Nicktoons: Battle for Volcano Island
    A generic platformer to say the least. It is obvious the game’s focus is on the franchises rather than the core gameplay mechanics. One for the diehard fanatics only.
    • 52 Metascore
    • 40 Critic Score
    Blade Kitten
    Kit tries hard to win your heart, but sadly the repetition, disappointing controls and level design stop her from being able to.
    • 53 Metascore
    • 40 Critic Score
    Valhalla Knights
    Valhalla Knights is quite possibly the least fun you'll have with a video game this year.
    • 70 Metascore
    • 40 Critic Score
    Garfield's Nightmare
    The graphics are pretty, though everything else feels incredibly ordinary, with the intentions solely being focused on tacking Garfield’s name onto a lifeless affair. The game is far too simple and offers very little to anyone who buys it – there are much better alternatives available.
