    An annoying little game that plays just well enough for us to nearly forgive the ridiculousness of it. [Issue#139, p.93]

    Like the film this will keep you amused for a good hour and a half but not a lot more. [Issue 142, p.94]

    Although a little repetitive, Outrun 2006 has a lot to offer to those content with bettering themselves and sucking up the beauty. [Apr 2006, p.74]

    Smooth, slick and sexy, setting a bench mark for PSP. [Issue#139, p.102]

    The combat system is cool, the alchemy is cool, the voice acting is cool; unfortunately the fetching and errand running is so archaic, you can hear it dying. [Issue 144, p.87]

    It's fun flying about and pressing the missile button when the target gets red. It's just it's not so fun when missions take up to half an hour on the later stages; it really does get a bit repetitive after a while. [Issue 144, p.76]

    It's dull, dull, dull and chockablock with the blandest levels and flick-the-right-switch challenges. [Issue 141, p.96]

    The problem is the stupidity of your defence - the number on their shirts apparently representing their IQ. [Issue 141, p.102]

    Over in a flash, Legend is great in parts, rubbish in others. There's simply not enough tomb raiding. In fact, there's not enough of anything. Despite some great moments, there's just not enough gameplay, leaving this sadly lacking. [Issue#139, p.66]

    Dull, ugly, and completely lacking in charm; only a glutton for punishment would enjoy Commandos Strike force. [Apr 2006, p.86]

    It's just that - a racing sim. Which for the most part means it's lonely and dull as you fight corners. [Issue#139, p.98]

    A lacklustre affair that misses the point of the movies, but still manages to capture their atmosphere. A stellar cast, incredible cutscenes and high production values can't hide the fact that this is an average city-based gangster game. [Issue#139, p.82]

    Suikoden V doesn't remind us of the past, it reminds us how much games have grown since, which is something this franchise seems intent on not doing. [Issue 145, p.90]

    Black merely gives us what we want deep, deep down. Those little voices crying out for destruction need silencing every now and again. [Apr 2006, p.88]

    Button-hammering combos, awful graphics, dire plot and annoying side-quests culminate in a big cloud of sweary yet camp violence. [Issue#139, p.92]

    It's still good-ish, just not very enjoyable, which in the scheme of things is probably something of a handicap. [Apr 2006, p.114]
