    • 68 Critic Score
    Stuck halfway between the arcade slots and po-faced flight simulation, and in the process takes itself far too seriously. [Oct 2011, p.105]

    For the jaded gamer with a few hours to spare it's like a zen garden for the soul. [Oct 2011, p.104]

    Despite its fantastic visualisation of Wonderland, repetitive gameplay means it fails to muster a chortle. [Sept 2011, p.100]

    A game destined to be forgotten. [Sept 2011, p.98]

    • 75 Metascore
    • 74 Critic Score
    A competent example of a PC port and of an RPG, but its obsessions with consumerism dampens the adventure. [Aug 2011, p.100]

    • 54 Metascore
    • 69 Critic Score
    A love letter to PC gaming, scrawled in crayon by an alcoholic bigot. Wait for the bargain bin to say goodbye to Duke. [Aug 2011, p.98]

    • 74 Metascore
    • 71 Critic Score
    Offers great weapons, a great destruction model...and not enough ways to have fun with them. [July 2011, p.94]

    • 65 Metascore
    • 52 Critic Score
    Good hack 'n' slash mechanics are let down by a lack of reasons to care about the action and keep heading back into battle. [June 2011, p.90]

    • 70 Metascore
    • 69 Critic Score
    A damp squib, really. The single player is far too short and the multiplayer only occasionally rises above the average. [May 2011, p.90]

    • 66 Metascore
    • 71 Critic Score
    Some fun to be had in amongst the tedium. [Apr 2011, p.102]

    • 57 Metascore
    • 51 Critic Score
    A film tie-in that's above average for tie-in games, but that only means it deserves to be quietly de-razzed. [Mar 2011, p.108]

    • 75 Metascore
    • 56 Critic Score
    It just doesn't feel like footie. [Feb 2011, p.107]

    Terrific style... Not that funny. [Jan 2011, p.107]

    • 55 Critic Score
    Can't decide whether it's a single player game, a co-op game or a tech demo. [Christmas 2010, p.102]

    • 78 Metascore
    • 73 Critic Score
    The zombie chopping is great fun, but Capcom hasn't put enough effort into making it look and feel like a proper PC game. [Issue#245, p.104]

    • 62 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    This is neither a great racing game nor a particularly terrible one, but it does feel like a missed opportunity. [Issue#244, p.108]

    Like an MMO, there's an undefinable something that keeps you playing, probably far beyond what your sanity can properly stand.
    • 66 Metascore

    The jokes are tired. [Mar 2010, p.95]

    • 55 Critic Score
    The format of these games gets more and more tired with each new franchise, too. [Sept 2010, p.104]

    • 75 Metascore
    • 74 Critic Score
    A competent shooter that makes the best of its license. Those early 80s cartoons have been suitably honoured. [Sept 2010, p.100]

    • 64 Metascore
    • 55 Critic Score
    In spite of the suitably grubby atmosphere, you always feel as if you're being kept at arm's length from the slimeys. [Aug 2010, p.101]
    • PC Format
    • 74 Metascore
    • 69 Critic Score
    The idea is excellent, but overall a weaker expansion than the first and not as exciting. [July 2010, p.98]

    Watch a Bourne movie instead. [Aug 2010, p.95]

    When blowing up a car by dropping a boat on it becomes boring, you know there's something fundamentally wrong. [July 2010, p.94]

    Bad translation... If you can speak German, get the native version. [July 2010, p.100]

    • 70 Metascore
    • 74 Critic Score
    Robotron is a good game to riff off, but there's only so many waves of bullets that you can avoid before you give in and go and do something more interesting instead. [June 2010, p.101]
    • PC Format
    • 71 Metascore
    • 71 Critic Score
    A simple but entertaining take on the game of golf, if you don't pay for it. A shallow meaningless farce if you do. [June 2010, p.98]
