A short but intense flash of arcade brilliance. [Issue#205, p.94]- Play UK

High price aside, Zuma is nevertheless a great puzzler that has you stopping a line of multicolored marbles before they reach the exit found on each stage's path. [Issue#182, p.83]- Play UK

Great fun in small doses, but the missions soon become a bit of a grind and as such your enjoyment is restricted to short bursts. [Issue#211, p.99]- Play UK

But the fact that it is no more than an aesthetic update hurts. [Issue#163, p.82]- Play UK

The continuing saga of everyone's favourite terrible cop has been a long time coming. Maybe too long. It's not bad by any means; there are moments of high-fiving, air-punching joy here. The trouble is it's both as eloquent and repetitive as its lead. Moments of glory clash with irritating, baffling design decisions to ensure that Max Payne 3 isn't quite the sequel we all hoped for. Brilliant in places, utterly frustrating in others.- Play UK

It can be so fluid and so slick at times, but by God, it's so bloody annoying sometimes. [Issue#163, p.87]- Play UK

It sounds better than it looks, but it's an accessible experience. [Issue#250, p.52]- Play UK

There's no denying that Call of Duty 3 uses the PS3's considerable power to spectacular and dramatic effect, but this just makes it an even bigger shame that it so often gets so many of the basics so very wrong. [Issue 148, p.72]- Play UK

It's a no-brainer for fans of the series, but noobs will struggle even with the low-end missions for at least a few hours. Be patient because investing time in tutorials and online guides yields a very worthwhile game. [Issue#181, p.77]- Play UK

A better treatment than Aerosmith or AC/DC but still way short of the tributes paid to Metallica and The Beatles. [Issue#194, p.92]- Play UK

Those wanting a burst of nostalgia will love this but it's a bit too old to grab most modern gamers. [Issue#217, p.81]- Play UK

The lack of online play is absolutely unforgivable. [Issue#197, p.103]- Play UK

Rote it may be in many regards, but an involving, tactical and – most importantly – welcome battle system makes Tales Of Graces f stand out from the me-too crowd of JRPGs. Imperfect, certainly not for everyone, but good fun.- Play UK

A fair remaster of a classic, Resident Evil is a game that holds up pretty well, but one that those not nostalgic enough likely won't enjoy as much as returning STARS veterans will. [Issue#253, p.64]- Play UK

A comparatively shallow RPG, but fun and accessible. [Issue#198, p.94]- Play UK

It still runs on pretty much the same clunky fight engine that it had for years. [Issue#185, p.74]- Play UK

Sorcery is fun and uses motion control in a way that doesn't make you want to claw your eyes out. It's shallow and short, though. [Issue#219, p.76]- Play UK

Apocalypse's racing feels like it's received less attention than creating spectacle, but the focus on track deformation is exhilarating and fun nevertheless. [Issue#203, p.84]- Play UK

Resistance: Retribution comes off feeling like it’s stuck between the PS3 and PSP, not knowing which way to go. Get past its faults and there is some solid shooting to be had, but we can’t help but wonder what it could have been.- Play UK

Unashamedly dated, but still surprisingly addictive and good fun if Warriors games are your bag. [Issue#198, p.95]- Play UK

Yes it's an extremely solid racer, and yes it does a good job at emulating the original 360 game, but ultimately, there are far better racers available. [Issue # 149, p.86]- Play UK
