There's so much heart put into the game that it's pretty impossible to dislike, actually, warts and all. [Issue#221, p.80]- Play UK

A solid package at a great price. [Issue#191, p.93]- Play UK

Red Faction: Guerrilla provides no shortage of jaw-dropping moments, so it never ceases to impress or entertain. It’s by far the most interesting game in the series.- Play UK

A pretty, interesting and thoroughly enjoyable shooter that somehow trumps the rest of the Juarez games despite being a fraction of the price. [Issue#232, p.85]- Play UK

A curious, colorful adventure that is unlike anything you've ever played before. [Issue#248, p.66]- Play UK

Not being able to punch people off their bikes is something of an oversight we feel. Punching makes everything better. Always. [Issue#154, p.87]- Play UK

As a fun-packed Harry Potter aside, this is brilliant. [Issue#194, p.94]- Play UK

While the trailer might have been a case of style over substance, the final game is the polar opposite. [Issue#210, p.84]- Play UK

It's cheap and it made us cheerful with its retro gameplay and easy-going difficulty levels. [Issue#153, p.85]- Play UK

Uncompromising, impenetrable and intimidating at the outset, perseverance will reveal a rich experience for long-standing fans. [Issue#203, p.91]- Play UK

Us liking a platform game?! The world has gone mad. [Issue#169, p.87]- Play UK

Veering from utterly absorbing to utterly nonsense, it revels in its existence as a unique gaming experience. [Issue#203, p.92]- Play UK

Even the shockingly bad likes of "Altered Beast" are mildly entertaining. A good compilation, but not quite great. [Issue #147, p.90]- Play UK

There's more than enough going on in single-player to make it worth a bash. Just don't expect anything to surprise you. [Issue#194, p.98]- Play UK

A spruced-up classic, a tantalising teaser and a daft but stunning movie make up a triple threat that perfectly celebrates a real fighting legend. [Issue#213, p.86]- Play UK

Climax was really onto something here. If it only decided to sway a little from the constant arena-like battles and introduced some more exploration and puzzle-solving, with much more downtime, it could have been one of the great PS2 action games. [Issue #150, p.66]- Play UK

An impressive simulation, granted, but marred by a reluctance to genuinely progress. [Apr 2006, p.108]- Play UK

Feels like an unfulfilled promise, a game that could have been great but quite happily settled for being good. It's a real shame when you consider how much fun the opening hours are and multiplayer is. [Issue #151, p.88]- Play UK

A very comfortable introduction to the genre - it's just the chronic slowdown during games that drags Guardians down. [Issue#227, p.77]- Play UK

The variety, fan service and attention to detail here make AVP a must-have for fans of the franchises, but thanks to a variety of inconsistencies and flaws, it fails to measure up to the 1999 PC title of the same name. [Issue#189, p.59]- Play UK

This is the last year when mere iteration will cut it; we're gonna need to see something truly new soon. [Issue#250, p.68]- Play UK

Top visuals, and some lovely particle effects create the illusion of a triple-A title. [Issue#164, p.95]- Play UK

Anyone disappointed that GTA IV left behind most of the silliness and anarchy of its PS2 past will love Saints Row 2, but don’t expect anything especially polished. It’s rather too similar to its prequel.- Play UK

A near flawless conversion whose flaws show themselves only to those in the upper skill echelons. [Issue 144, p.78]- Play UK

That most rare of jokes - one that's still funny even after the 50th time you've heard it. [Issue#207, p.88]- Play UK

To keep things authentic, it doesn't push out any truly original ideas. [Issue#223, p.74]- Play UK
