It's actually very well put together, with all the right voices, but suffers from an over-profusion of sub-aquatic advertising taken from the film. [Christmas 2004, p.122]

An amiable enough RPG, once you escape the first two hours, but it's let down by an appalling translation and glitchy combat. [Christmas 2007, p.58]

It definitely simulates railways, for better, but mainly for worse. [Christmas 2007, p.68]

Repetitive action and a poor engine ground this flyboy. [July 2006, p.102]

Ostensibly worthy, but fundamentally uninspiring – the only value is the size.

A decent low-cost dabble if you've grown out of painting little lead figures. [Christmas 2004, p.122]

Ambitious and complex throughout, but lacking the fun factor. [Dec 2006, p.109]

The adamantium claws sure are sharp, but are they really all you have? [Christmas 2005, p.96]

The gaming equivalent of Flight 1549: starts well then mercilessly plops into the Hudson River of bad flight sims.

Merely average. [Feb 2010, p.88]

Just too short and too shoddy. [May 2008, p.106]

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

Fun for video nasty fans, but move along gamers, there's nothing to see here. [Christmas 2005, p.92]

A promising shooter which ultimately ends not with the final movie, but an impassioned cry of “What the hell were you thinking?!”

Like a clapped out Huey returning from its final mission - ugly, rusted, outdated and just so shot shot full of holes. [Feb 2005, p.82]

Not so much heroic as the world's most violent way of developing RSI. [Christmas 2005, p.97]

Just another lazy-port-slash-cheap-cash-in that is designed to fleece fans of the film, who in this case are mostly children. [Oct 2008, p.114]

Come on EA, give us something new to write about with your next release. [Jan 2005, p.90]

Overpriced, under-content and thoroughly disappointing all around. [Dec 2004, p.102]

Until EA decides it's going to port the 'next-gen' versions, it's sports titles, such as NBA Live 08, are always going to be a huge disappointment. [Christmas 2007, p.67]

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]

Mostly, it's just pants. [May 2010, p.101]

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]

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

Despite the heavy emphasis on replayability, only the most die-hard fans of the original series will be happy to chase the same car over an identical track again and again for the meagre promise of TV stills and rehashed video clips.

I could have forgiven this for being a superficial Trek-based shooter if it was at least fun. It's not. [Feb 2007, p.58]

Leaves little up to the player apart from pulling the trigger. Repeatedly. [May 2006, p.96]

It just doesn't feel like footie. [Feb 2011, p.107]
