Because of the lack of competition at the moment, this is the cricket game to buy. [Nov 2009, p.]

The Last Remnant takes every opportunity to avoid immersion, if only this was the last remnant of the J-RPG on the PC. [June 2009, p.98]

Intriguing plot and visuals, but we've had enough of these lazy adventures. [March 2005, p.104]

This is the fifth incarnation of a Lego license game and it hasn't moved on. [Feb 2010, p.94]

It's the same old game with prettier graphics and a half-decent story. Settlers-heads will love it, but best wait for it to appear on budget. [Nov 2007, p.52]

If you can put up with the banality of the missions and NPCs, and the fact that all the player characters look the same, Neocron is slowly becoming one of the most interesting MMORPG worlds.

An elaborately realised world, with too little interaction to be truly great. [Oct 2007, p.60]

Some fun to be had in amongst the tedium. [Apr 2011, p.102]

Oddly entertaining, but still short, stunted, and with zero replay value.

A massive upgrade on the first game, but don't blame us if you get a bit tired of shooting people in the face. [Issue#244, p.106]

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

It's not really a title that hardcore gamers are going to be interested in, and it's as linear as hell, but as an arcade platformer for kids, it's a cracker. [Mar 2007, p.77]

Slog through the first few hours of Need for Speed: Undercover and you'll find something worth playing. But should you have to? [Feb 2009, p.96]

One of the main areas in which MotoGP '08 impresses is its extensive career mode. [Christmas 2008, p.99]

Good, but without the "must keep playing" factor. [April 2006]

There may not be many air combat games around these days, but that's no excuse for picking up this lukewarm offering. [Dec 2009, p.58]

A surprisingly good RPG adventure with more content than you could shake an orc at. [Dec 2007, p.57]

Even the addition of well animated and suitably menacing dinosaurs can't save this from being a bland, forgettable FPS. [Aug 2008, p.100]

Predictably poor. Proof that every gaming franchise has its limits.

Gives you all the power in the Star Wars universe, but it takes away your opposable thumbs in the process. [Jan 2010, p.85]

Like a good pie, but with crap pastry on top. This is a game weighed down by an army of faults, but it's still periodically entertaining. [Jan 2007, p.64]

Its three hours of solid combat with identical soldiers gets wearing extremely quickly with nothing else to distract you.
