A great game, unimpressively updated. Get the bigger, cheaper version instead.- PC Gamer

If the competition were par, this would be a double bogey. [Feb 2001, p.57]- PC Gamer

Only terrible AI, Starforce copy protection, and a semi-rare game-crashing bug ruin Heroes' otherwise enjoyable gameplay. [Mar 2007, p.66]- PC Gamer

There's no significant improvement over Trainz 2004, though, so stick with the older game if you have it. [Jun 2006, p.105]- PC Gamer

Lethis has gorgeous art and a terrific musical score, and it aspires to great heights. But the game underneath isn't fully baked, and the result is only an interesting experiment in frustration—when it isn't outright boring.- PC Gamer

Running around 3D urban locales such as a mall or a corporate office building in the midst of a full-blow riot is sure to hook a few people, but flat gameplay and god-awful controls will make them turn away in disgust. [Dec 2003, p.132]- PC Gamer

A strange animal, Darkspore doesn't seem to want you to like its characters-and won't let you make your own.- PC Gamer

A game that pushes VR’s boundaries. Strange, playful and committed to creativity, but intense if you're new to VR.- PC Gamer

An action strategy spinoff that disappoints both genres and misses Minecraft's magic.- PC Gamer

I’m confident that young kids will get a kick out of HP:SC, but everyone else is better off doing their adventuring elsewhere. [Feb 2002, p.68]- PC Gamer

EA Sports has once again screwed PC owners over with a cut-rate edition of one of its big fall sports games, and NHL 08 is even more of a disappointment than its football and golf comrades. [Holiday 2007, p.83]- PC Gamer

This one will move a few units at Wal-Mart, but no more. [July 2005, p.69]- PC Gamer

Compelling, but not quite there yet. Needs two seasons to grow the beard.- PC Gamer

Underneath its tarnished exterior is a game that's surprisingly engaging and intense. [Feb 2004, p.83]- PC Gamer

The background scenery is attractive, but the game's floaty vehicle physics significantly undermine the actual driving experience. [May 2003, p.70]- PC Gamer

If you can get past the painfully unfunny "humor," S.W.I.N.E. offers some solid fun for action-RTS fans. [Mar 2002, p.68]- PC Gamer

I'm confident that Strike Fighters will eventually grow to become one of the genre's all-time classics. [Jan 2003, p.108]- PC Gamer

Given the series' heritage and the long buildup to this entry, it's hard not to feel let down. [July 2004, p.70]- PC Gamer

Tennis Masters would be much more fun to play, however, if it weren’t for a bunch of annoying niggles. Chief among them is a strangely stuttery style of animation that goes totally against the seamless, fluid feel you’d expect.- PC Gamer
