The game’s animation and performance are lacking but its art direction is colourful, and the dialogue has the same infectious energy as it does in the show.2 Only die-hard Adventure Time fans should check this out. [Issue#153, p.89]

As long as you're not expecting anything more complex than the ancient side-scroller that inspired it, Bionic Commando offers plenty of fun. [June 2009, p.100]

While it lasts Lemmings remains as addictive as it is cute. [May 2007, p.114]

Offering many memorable moments and a well-realised if empty world, this remaster is dragged down by some technical flaws . The Definitive Edition? Not quite. [Issue#177, p.147]

By far the biggest problem here is how Sonic himself handles. [July 2012, p.106]

Fun in bursts, especially when you’re able to rope in other people, Earthfall is a good choice if you’re desperate for a co-op shooting fix. The lack of polish, however, swarms over the experience. [Issue#153, p.90]

It's all wonderful stuff, then - until it ends. Which it does surprisingly quickly. [Jan 2017, p.118]

It’s quite a light package designed for shooting straight from the hip and not serious sniper stakeouts. [Issue#160, p.89]

A lovingly remastered, nostalgic treat for fans, with all the cars and guns given extra polish. A robust GTA clone that should please anyone else who doesn’t mind a bit of gleefully juvenile silliness. [Issue#177, p.154]

There are only 15 levels, but it's a neat little idea. [Aug 2010, p.113]

With unimpactful combat, Kakarot isn’t the Dragon Ball action RPG fans have been waiting for but still offers a faithful recreation of the most beloved anime series. [Issue#172, p.81]

The trouble is, this gets old very fast. [Jan 2009, p.104]

Just not very good. [Christmas 2009, p.116]

It's a shame those overly stingy ratings try to zap the fun out of this fair. [Jan 2017, p.128]

There are some genuinely slick moments to be enjoyed. [Feb 2011, p.104]

Even the light cycle sections...are reduced to a forgettable, linear scramble. [Feb 2011, p.104]

A Greatest Hits album that's more like a collection of vintage B-sides. [Sept 2009, p.110]

That’s not to say My Friend Pedro doesn’t have its moments; somersaulting and sniping is novel, and when you clear a room by weaponising the environment it’s incredibly satisfying. Just don’t expect the slickest shooter. [Issue #175, p.80]

What can’t be overlooked, however, is the lack of fan service; there’s no classic art or game history to unlock. Ultimately, Toki is a chimp off the old block. [Issue#165, p.84]

If you can overlook the presentation problems, there’s a clever game of strategy here that just about makes this a war worth enlisting for.

Nail'd isn't poor, but it manages to make predictable what should have been wild, mud-flecked insanity. [Feb 2011, p.112]

If you're willing to rise to the challenge and master its crumby controls, there's just about enough novelty to make it worth your while despite its limited shelf life. [Nov 2015, p.107]

There's a technically solid shooter here somewhere, hidden beneath ugliness and questionable design. [Aug 2009, p.110]

Some good camera work. [Feb 2011, p.113]

As fugly as it is inventive, this is an addictive if unpolished treat. [June 2012, p.115]

Blame rapidly decaying attention spans if you want, but this won't hold your attention for long. [Aug 2007, p.103]

A stripped-back, branching narrative with nice production values that is nowhere near as slick overall as the likes of Erica. You’d better be here for a B-movie. [Issue#175, p.71]

As arcadey as its races often are, there’s enough realism here to ground proceedings in a strangely compelling manner. Example? How about blowing out a tyre2 and the game forcing you to complete the race as you hobble along in eighth place like a six-tonne knackered shopping trolley. Fugly and frantic, this is a unique racer. [Issue#165, p.96]
