It's fluid, vivid and with as much depth as you want. A delight. [Apr 2006, p.104]

Cheap as chips and wonderfully nostalgic, even for new players. [Feb 2012, p.81]

The New Order feels like an anomaly, a single-player led FPS with a focus on run-and-gun gameplay and no multiplayer to speak of. It’s all much more fun than we expected, with high production values (thanks, no doubt, to Bethesda), decent graphics, an interesting story and some awesome guns. Fans of Doom, Quake, and of course Wolfenstein back in the day should find plenty to enjoy here.

Tells a good story and is a fun game. [Issue#191, p.74]

Niggles aside, this is one of Vita's best games, a great game of football and a horrendous time-waster. Good enough for us.

There are few better rhythm-action games on the handheld. [Issue#181, p.81]

A smart, contained, neatly-written sci-fi story filled with excellent sequences and set-ups. The scares are light, but Soma is one of the best horror games in years. [Issue#262, p.70]

Addictive like crack-coated Pringles. [Issue#208, p.99]

Refreshing and addictive. [Issue#158, p.90]

There's an inevitable faltering in the fact that this is 'merely' WipEout again – there's not too much that can be done with the formula, but to be honest there's little we'd want to see done to change things up. Though a crossover with PSone's Rollcage, thus adding wheeled vehicles, would be pretty nifty. All the same, this does mean you're getting a game made up of a very good experience – but a very good experience you've played through seven times before. Eight if you had an N64. WipEout 2048 still comes with an unconditional recommendation.

A pleasant last hoorah for your PSP. [Feb 2012, p.83]

We expect a little bit more from a next-gen game. [Issue#238, p.72]

A superb snowboarding game, but if you've already given it a thorough going-over on the PS2 it probably isn't worth sparing it a second thought. [Apr 2006, p.116]

One of the best fighting games ever, hampered by one of the worst fighting-game controllers ever. [Issue 141, p.91]

The new mini-games are a blast though, and we can't overly punish what is still the best tennis experience out there. [Issue#152, p.82]

A little different to what we were expecting, Until Dawn is still a great experience for horror enthusiasts, and something we really hope Supermassive builds on in the future. [Issue#261, p.66]

There are flaws that hurt the experience, but nothing, nothing stops Tekken 6 from being an intense, tactical and utterly brilliant fighting game, perfect for anyone with even a fleeting interest in the genre. [Issue#184, p.60]

We love this. [Issue#221, p.79]

It's a genuine joy to bounce, swoop, and peg it across the levels, even more so when you're rewarded with a new way of doing so. [Issue#251, p.68]

A brief, sweet experience made all the better by its unique presentation and interesting mechanics. [Issue#225, p.82]

A cynical exercise in fan service that leeches off its ancestors in the absence of any merits it can call its own. [Issue#184, p.76]

Prototype merely ends up an entertaining burst of pandemonium that won't trouble the PS3 big boys. [Issue#181, p.80]

Entertaining gameplay with plenty of options to keep you busy, but the repetitive nature of it all keeps the score down. [Issue 144, p.81]

The permanent threat of death keeps you forced to the ground – we can’t remember the last game where we willingly snuck around so much – and it feels like the claustrophobic corridors and catwalks of the Sevastopol were built from that angle. Being crouched, looking up at everything… it really does give you that feeling that Creative Assembly wanted it all along – that ‘prey being hunted’ effect. It makes a refreshing change from the feeling of being overpowered and able to kill anything that appears.

An interesting story tethered to a frustrating puzzle game. [Issue#215, p.85]

A weird action hybrid, this will go down as a grand experiment that lost its way. [Issue#209, p.90]

While the core gameplay is still excellent, stunt runs, upgradeable vehicles and connectivity with cash-hungry iOS release Trials Frontier all nudge Fusion further away from that classic, pure game of mastery where only player skill matters.

Ultimately, Fat Princess is a victim of its own focused creativity. It may have visual appeal and at first seem to offer a lot but it doesn’t take long to realise proceedings are rather dull; matches last a ridiculously long amount of time. In tiny bursts there’s definitely some appeal. It’s just ever so short. [Issue#183, p.80]
