    Arguably the best in the series, but also very much a retread of F1 2012. [December 2013, p.95]

    An intriguing strategy/RPG hybrid with a lot to offer those who can conquer its more obvious flaws. [Aug 2013, p.88]

    A very strong first chapter of an intriguing new adventure series. [Apr 2015, p.61]

    Where it all falls down is in the core game. The reality is that this is more or less the same FIFA we've had for the last couple of years. While all of PC FIFA's console brethren have married and moved into nice engines, our favourite platform is left with the gaming equivalent of a washed out, beaten up trailer. [Christmas 2008, p.81]

    This isn’t the greatest expansion in the series, but it remains 100% Command & Conquer and that counts for a lot. EA knows their fan-base and with Kane’s Wrath have dished up more of the same to ensure you get your recommended daily dose of the franchise. [Jun 2008, p.55]

    Difficult to get into and somewhat unintuitive, but so wonderfully tactical and complicated! [May 2011, p.74]

    An interesting change of pace for fans - or, on the flipside, it could be just the thing to get you interested. [Aug 2013, p.91]

    An enjoyable puzzle platformer wrapped in boundless charm. [Jan 2013, p.76]

    We found the different races to be surprisingly equal on the battlefield and if this holds up under super competitive online play UAW could become very popular indeed. [Feb 2008, p.59]

    Despite pacing issues, Teslagrad's strange blend of science and fantasy prove that opposites do indeed attract. [Apr 2014, p.58]

    It's slowly getting there, just like mould. Except this is better. [Nov 2009, p.56]

    Life consuming strategy - after you beat that learning curve. [Nov 2009, p.60]

    Supreme Commander in name only, this new take on the franchise has a refreshing focus on macro-strategy. [May 2010, p.62]

    Big Brother may be watching, but if I was him I would have switched off from boredom. [Issue#257, p.65]

    • 70 Critic Score
    The kind of eccentric humour and senseless attention to detail makes this worth a look, even if it can seem somewhat short, repetitive and claustrophobic. [Aug 2008, p.61]

    Gorgeous graphics combine with a fantastic combat system to deliver a pretty unique experience. [June 2014, p.60]

    There are some strong gameplay elements in Watch Dogs, but overall it's merely an adequate open world game. [July 2014, p.46]

    • 60 Critic Score
    Such well-executed atmosphere and level design could greatly improve with just a few tweaks to the items and systems. [Nov 2013, p.86]

    Unique puzzle mechanics provide some intriguing conundrums, but things end up stuck in the flat dimension. [Aug 2012, p.62]

    At times too slavish a recreation of tabletop action, Armada is nonetheless entertaining and challenging. [Issue#250, p.68]

    • 77 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    A damn fine - if at times somewhat unforgiving - turn-based game with strategic depth and hours upon hours of play. [Christmas 2011, p.52]

    • 90 Critic Score
    Jumping out of nowhere with a confidence that beggars belief, Endless Space is galactic strategy at its best. [Aug 2012, p.54]

    • 80 Critic Score
    Not for everyone, but if you like a mix of solo and co-op play, and big monsters, Evolve is very solid indeed. [Apr 2015, p.55]
    • PC PowerPlay
    • 77 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Flawed but satisfying combination of epic turn-based tactical gameplay and incredible fidelity to the source material. [Issue#266, p.62]

    • 77 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Great card game, and dangerously addictive, but fails to realise the potential of both the Magic system and platform. [Sept 2011, p.70]
    • PC PowerPlay
    • 77 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    A competent but confused and occasionally irritating shooter with wavering tone and unashamed intent to set up for the final installment. [March 2012, p.54]
    • 77 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    Plays like MOBA, smells like Heresy. [Issue#262, p.51]
