BattleForge runs smoothly and is pretty enough, with a wide selection of large units to choose from. However, battles see you going up against the same units - the ones players have identified as being the best. So the only real variety BattleForge provides is on paper. [May 2009, p.73]- PC Zone UK

A few performance issues mar an otherwise fun little racer. [Aug 2010, p.87]- PC Zone UK

- Critic Score
The game is very, very repetitive and very, very dumb, falling light years short of the novel's depth. [July 2009, p.77]- PC Zone UK

A long, long time ago, in a galaxy far, far away, this kind of last-generation gameplay would relieve the daily tedium. Now it's in danger of adding to it.- PC Zone UK

A bit more attention to the puzzles, the pace and the script, and this old-school adventure might have been more of a turtle's dream than a turtle's head. [June 2007, p.77]- PC Zone UK

Delivers the goods in spades, with an improved engine and a new emphasis to real-time rather than turn-based action. [Oct 2007, p.82]- PC Zone UK

- Critic Score
The Halo 2 Vista experience is as forgettable as it is tardy and somewhat deptressing. [July 2007, p.72]- PC Zone UK
-
- Critic Score
Warriors Orochi never rises above simple hack-and-slash, but is fun, visceral and silly, with daft voice acting and Asian techno-jazz. [June 2008, p.83]- PC Zone UK

It's sad that there are no great Gauntlet-style hack-and-slash multiplayer games anymore. Despite its flaws, this is the best that an old workhorse of a genre has to offer so, if you must play it, play it with friends. Don't expect too much though.- PC Zone UK

You're a passenger watching a crime solve itself - except you get to do all the donkey work. [Mar 2008, p.79]- PC Zone UK

It's a shame this isn't a hopelessly bad game, otherwise I could've called it "BlackShite" and been done with it, but instead it teeters on the edge of being a worthwhile purchase before deciding it's comfortable being ordinary and forgettable. [Feb 2008, p.72]- PC Zone UK

Unless you can't get enough of the original game or you're a Star Wars fanatic who's been hankering for some new plot developments, then it simply isn't worth corrupting your hard disk with what has sadly turned out to be another promising but ultimately inadequate add-on.- PC Zone UK

All the polish in the world could not mask the nagging feeling of tactical emptiness. [May 2009, p.59]- PC Zone UK
-
- Critic Score
A definite improvement over "Euro Force." And that's pretty much the best plaudit I can muster. [Oct 2006, p.81]- PC Zone UK

- Critic Score
With nothing beyond a grim gambling fascination, I quickly went from reckless overbetting calamities to profitably unsexy play. [May 2006, p.87]- PC Zone UK

- Critic Score
A disappointing and flat experience that's only really any fun when played with a friend, who may make an occasional error. [Nov 2009, p.75]- PC Zone UK

Unless my brain is being fried by professor Xavier's Cerebro machine, I quite enjoyed X-Men: The Official Game. [Aug 2006, p.81]- PC Zone UK

- Critic Score
It lacks the logical connections that most strategy games have. [Oct 2008, p.62]- PC Zone UK
-
- Critic Score
From the unfriendly, baffling set-up screen, everything is unwieldy and cobbled together. [Oct 2006, p.79]- PC Zone UK
-
- Critic Score
It's just not good enough and, crucially, makes Holmes and Watson do things they just wouldn't do in the books. Which is, at the end of the day, the biggest flaw. [Apr 2010, p.89]- PC Zone UK

May EA blight us with more Harry Potter games than our PCs' hard drives can possibly tolerate. [Oct 2009, p.71]- PC Zone UK

- Critic Score
Lacks any sane rationale behind its price and hides within it a game that could have been so much more, but just isn't. [Jan 2008, p.78]- PC Zone UK

It does nothing to expand upon the base game and therefore make itself worthy of notice, except for those of you with a burning desire to see how a sub-par fantasy story turns out who can't be bothered to look it up on Wikipedia. [Christmas 2007, p.88]- PC Zone UK

An adequate and traditional (read 'hugely dated') point-and-click, and there's some charm to the puzzles and story. [Jan 2007, p.76]- PC Zone UK
