    • 78 Critic Score
    Lengthy, clever, and gripping. It's nice to have a decent point and click adventure around. It's been too long. [Oct 2011, p.105]

    One of the best physics puzzle games out there. A clever game and one devoid of pretension. [Oct 2011, p.104]

    It's ugly, clunky and stilted, but channel your psychotic Sam Fisher and you'll find some fun. [Oct 2011, p.103]

    • 82 Critic Score
    An accomplished, silly and engaging game of a genre that's woefully under-used. [Feb 2007, p.69]

    Puts its core mechanics before everything else and with good reason - they're as near-perfect as we're ever going to get. [Sept 2011, p.102]

    There are times when this can be offensively unimaginative, but the combat and co-op are too good to ignore. [Sept 2011, p.96]

    Not quite the inspired sequel we had all hoped for, but there's still enough in DiRT 3 to bring the fans back. [Aug 2011, p.96]

    Just as serving a delicious cheesecake on a bed of rotten mackerel kills the appetite, so OpFlash: Red River turns the stomach with its nauseating intro. No matter how appealing the main event might be, you just can't get that image out of your head.

    Great sim thrills with EA's trademark slick presentation. [May 2011, p.94]

    Doesn't fix what ain't broke; but does tweaks on an excellent formula to produce the best post WoW MMO so far. [May 2011, p.88]

    • 86 Metascore
    • 83 Critic Score
    As human mercenary enemies make way for the dreaded aliens, the AI suffers a brain haemorrhage and the game needs to distract you with spectacular visual events to distract you from your stand and shoot enemies. It's as good as any recent shooter at epic moments and gun-toting drama, but it feels a little shallow once you realise how remedial the all-conquering alien force actually are.

    It's the finest Total War game CA has ever made, with a beautifully focused campaign and involving multiplayer too. [Apr 2011, p.94]

    A visceral, well-written and worthy sequel to an excellent game, with huge potential to become a modern classic.

    • 80 Critic Score
    A surprisingly competent indie game that can't quite fulfill its ambitions. Time and patches should be kind to it though. [Mar 2011, p.106]
    • 86 Metascore
    • 81 Critic Score
    Visceral game changer that provides almost too much bang for 15.8591 bucks. No innovations that further the title, though. [Mar 2011, p.104]
    • 72 Metascore
    • 86 Critic Score
    The best attempt yet at merging action gaming and MMOs, and a dream come true for comic fans of all ages. [Mar 2011, p.102]
    • 73 Metascore
    • 79 Critic Score
    There are still bugs and little really new on offer here. [Feb 2011, p.108]
