A slightly confused combination of intimidating depth and unnerving shallowness: on the one hand, a monstrous physics engine that'll stir a petrol-head's soul, on the other some patchy graphics and a slightly home-made techno soundtrack that calls up wholly unflattering comparisons to EA. However, it does push the realism harder than the more entertaining "Live For Speed." [March 2005, p.102]- PC Format

Filled with impressive engine technology and good fun to boot. Not really designed for grown-ups. [Jan 2007, p.68]- PC Format

Addictive, simple, and enormous fun, Fate's only flaw is that the endless dungeons get depressing as the decor incessantly repeats, and that the simple fishing mini-game often nets you ridiculously expensive top-level items. [Sept 2005, p.102]- PC Format

A must-have for anyone who has fond memories of the golden age of games, whether you played the original or not. [Oct 2008, p.108]- PC Format

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

Battlefield 1942 is absolutely a multiplayer title – and don’t let anyone tell you different – and in that respect it really does the business.- PC Format

Leader of the field of one, until some credible opposition appears. [Dec 2005, p.92]- PC Format

Satisfying and technically proficient carnage. Watch that bodywork fly. [Sept 2006, p.103]- PC Format

It seems that Oblivion wears insanity quite well, and it's a refreshing approach to the established universe. [May 2007, p.65]- PC Format

They're not perfect, but these beloved characters are definitely in capable hands. [June 2010, p.100]- PC Format

It's a simple, short thing, but the truly masterful handling of the lightsaber(s) this time around means it's also perhaps the most genuinely Star Warsy game in a long, long time.- PC Format

A game that flies high, but is almost shot down by severe controller issues. [Mar 2010, p.92]- PC Format

A good sequel that's faithful to its forebears in all the right places. [July 2006, p.98]- PC Format

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

Make no mistake, this is the best version of FIFA ever and maybe even the most fun-to-play arcade footie game ever. [Christmas 2006, p.97]- PC Format

Still lots of high-octane fun, but even the excellent community may not be reason enough for old hands. [Apr 2007, p.70]- PC Format

A real romp to play, and there’s very little grind involved – an achievement for any MMORPG. In addition, it doesn’t require you to put your life on hold to get a lot out of the game, unlike the "Everquests" and "Star Wars Galaxies" of the world.- PC Format

JC isn't perfect. There are some stolid, on-rails bits, the missions get repetitive, and did we mention the physics is crap? But there's abundant pleasure to be found. [Dec 2006, p.116]- PC Format

A strong stomach is more important than a Pentium IV for this one. [March 2005, p.113]- PC Format

A well-rendered world, with a well-realised story, though without as much actual gaming as we'd hoped there'd be. [Issue#244, p.81]- PC Format

Fortunately, the action is so focused, the squad dynamic so intuitive and the banter so entertaining that you won't stop to consider the game's failings... The best Star Wars prequel game yet. [March 2005, p.92]- PC Format

It's not a painful experience by any means; it just feels like it's little more than extended Fallout 3 DLC.- PC Format
