    EverQuest: Prophecy of Ro
    As a status-quo expansion, PoR's not bad, but the twice-a-year-pace of adding zones that are swiftly obsolete isn't helping the game out. [Jun 2006, p.88]

    Commandos Strike Force
    Too much is lost in the translation between third-person strategy and first-person shooter, with insufficient respect paid overall to the FPS point of view. [Jun 2006, p.52]

    Conan Exiles
    Broad in shoulder, wide in scope, rough around the edges. Nevertheless, an enjoyably meaty survival game.
    • 68 Metascore
    • 65 Critic Score
    Space Empires V
    From tech tree, combat, and diplomacy cock-ups to bugged multiplayer and ongoing game crashes, a journey with Space Empires V is as frustrating as it is deep. [Feb. 2007, p.76]

    Viking: Battle for Asgard
    Lacks the polish and panache to be a true champion, but Viking is still solid, no-thrills entertainment.
    • 57 Metascore
    • 65 Critic Score
    SpaceStationSim
    Leave rocket building to the rocket scientists. [Apr 2006, p.100]

    A Musical Story
    Great music, delivered in frustratingly bitty form. A clever rhythm game that doesn't mesh with its prominent story.

    Rise of the Tomb Raider: Baba Yaga - The Temple of the Witch
    Baba Yaga has more of Rise of the Tomb Raider’s fun platforming and gorgeous Siberian cliffsides, but the condensed format only strengthens its problems.

    Espire 1: VR Operative
    Espire 1's VR stealth is brimming with neat ideas, but the end product is slightly less than the sum of its parts.
    • 74 Metascore
    • 65 Critic Score
    Tempopo
    Tempopo's rhythmic puzzling is undeniably great, but is let down by a lack of mechanical pacing and an absence of Witch Beam's coveted storytelling.
    • 79 Metascore
    • 65 Critic Score
    Guitar Hero III: Legends of Rock
    Guitar Hero III's shortcomings feel like the unfortunate consequence of being a hastily made port. [Jan 2008, p.86]

    Pro Evolution Soccer 2013
    The latest iteration of Konami's football game is fine, but inorganic, stolid, and a little dull. Pick FIFA over this on PC.
    • 72 Metascore
    • 65 Critic Score
    Swords of Legends Online
    Swords of Legends Online's endgame is great, but you're going to have to put up with a lot of crap to get to it.
    • 56 Metascore
    • 65 Critic Score
    Disciples III: Renaissance
    Disciples III has a strong heritage, but wears out its welcome with too much repetition, stunted difficulty and weird pacing. [Oct 2010, p.78]

    • 75 Metascore
    • 65 Critic Score
    SAND LAND
    Sand Land is just another forgettable tie-in to add to the existing anime game pile.
    • 66 Metascore
    • 65 Critic Score
    This Is the Police
    This Is The Police looks and sounds gorgeous, but becomes dull and repetitive after the first couple of hours.
    • 72 Metascore
    • 65 Critic Score
    Steep
    Steep’s freedom is exhilarating and it looks stunning, but clunky, imprecise controls tarnish the experience.

    Tamarak Trail
    One flipping good idea can’t save this repetitive roguelike deckbuilder from only rolling above average.
    • 79 Metascore
    • 65 Critic Score
    Street Fighter X Tekken
    Has fantastic parts, but isn't the sum of them. Wait for the inevitable remix version, which may fix some of the problems. [Aug 2012, p.55]
    • 55 Metascore
    • 65 Critic Score
    Steel Storm: Burning Retribution
    Simple, explosion-packed action is what SS:BR looks like, and that's exactly what it'll deliver. Nothing more, nothing less. [Oct 2011, p.78]

    Europa
    A game all about gliding and exploring trips over its own feet.
    • 59 Metascore
    • 65 Critic Score
    Forspoken
    Forspoken occasionally has small sparks of greatness, but then quickly douses itself in fear of ever being anything other than an upsettingly safe open-world RPG.
    • 76 Metascore
    • 65 Critic Score
    RoboCop: Rogue City
    Robocop: Rogue City's fantastic shootouts are held back by a dull narrative and bloated pacing.
    • 64 Metascore
    • 65 Critic Score
    Pirates of the Caribbean
    For pirate lovers and diehard roleplaying fans only - a pass for everyone else. [Oct 2003, p.118]

    Assassin's Creed Unity
    A magnificent city full of exciting assassination missions, marred by broken co-op and technical issues.
    • 64 Metascore
    • 65 Critic Score
    Game of Thrones: A Telltale Games Series
    ​Game of Thrones gets the feel of Martin's universe right, but it relies too heavily on familiar themes to form a memorable identity of its own.
    • 68 Metascore
    • 65 Critic Score
    Night Call
    Haphazard gameplay and varying narrative quality put a damper on Night Call's strong mood and hints of brilliance.
    • 81 Metascore
    • 65 Critic Score
    Ghostrunner 2
    Ghostrunner deserved a sequel; specifically, a sequel better than this one.
    • 83 Metascore
    • 65 Critic Score
    Kena: Bridge of Spirits
    Looks better than it plays, but it's got a good heart.
    • 70 Metascore
    • 65 Critic Score
    Maneater
    It's just a shame the journey from infant to megashark isn't populated with a wider variety of activities. Like Hooper said, sharks just swim and eat, and that's unfortunately not enough to fill even a short action-RPG like Maneater.
