    Speed kills - in this instance it's due to a lack of it, combined with rubbish controls, long loads, and grind-heavy gameplay.
    • 59 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    Great Battles Medieval has history and accessibility on its side, but in the end its weak points are too visible to stand up to stronger opposition.
    • 59 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Ferris Mueller's Day off is a collection of thoughtful and finely tuned puzzles, surrounded by atrocious cartoon art and abysmal reference humour.
    • 59 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    A slightly lacklustre adventure game. There might be something here for fans of the TV show, but it won't be very much.

    For all of its shiny exterior, Daytona Rush is a bit of an old banger underneath.
    • 58 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    A wonderful 3DS psychological thriller that details the journey through the emotional turmoil of a ship in distress.
    • 58 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Steel Diver provides exciting, tactical underwater action, but a steep difficulty curve and lack of content make it difficult to recommend.
    • 58 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    A new made role-player with a strong retro theme, Black Sigil provides plenty of game but doesn't mark out any new territory.
    • 58 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    A collection of sporting mini-games that, while initially entertaining, prove far too simple and lifeless.
    • 58 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Star Wars: Galactic Defense is a vanilla tower defence game that just so happens to include characters and vehicles from a cherished franchise.
    • 58 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    Despite solid controls and presentation, The Amazing Spider-Man 2 lacks any sort of heart and soul, and its repetitive missions lend this open-world adventure a pervading sense of dullness and drudgery.
    • 58 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    Fuzzy, outdated graphics appropriately reflect the worn and improperly tailored gameplay of SEED 2: Vortex of War.
    • 58 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    The lineage of lacklustre Superman games continues with this curiously dull and lifeless effort. The gameplay feels stale and lacks variety, making this a release that you should avoid like Kryptonite.
    • 58 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    A step in the right direction after the previous entry, but THQ really needs to shelve the touchscreen control for the inevitable 2010 version.
    • 58 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    It might not have the longevity of its legendary cast of characters, but as long as you don't mind punching things a lot, Justice League: Earth's Final Defense will keep you entertained for a while.
    • 58 Metascore
    • 40 Critic Score
    Tedious, complex, and unappealing on a variety of levels, D&D Tactics may have authenticity in spades, yet it lacks a modicum of accessibility.
    • 58 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Tron Evolution is a solid action/puzzle title but underneath the neon art style there's no much you haven't seen before.
    • 58 Metascore
    • 40 Critic Score
    At best, it's a bland, repetitive Silent Hill-skinned dungeon-crawling grind. At worst, it's a vacuous vandalism of a treasured horror brand.
    • 58 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    Dull and clumsy, Iron Man 3 feels more like a simulation of a slightly drunk jog than a superhero game.
    • 58 Metascore
    • 40 Critic Score
    Indeed, so much of what was an otherwise quality adventure has been lost in the transition, this is more like a book of the film where half of the pages have been torn out. Avoid.

    Like a blackout at the Super Bowl, NFL Quarterback 13 leaves you wondering where all the football gameplay went.
    • 58 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    No Red T-Shirts's repetitive gameplay and overbearing in-app purchases (not to mention its unsettling subject matter) mean this app deserves a hefty fine.
    • 58 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    The core of a fun mobile city-building game is buried beneath egregious free to play additions.
    • 58 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Simple, addictive and entertaining concept that could have been dangerously compulsive with a little more balance and polish.
    • 58 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Comfortably defying expectations, Boogie proves to be wonderfully infectious dance floor fun.
    • 58 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    All the idiocy without the pain, Jackass: The Game delivers exactly what it promises: a relatively entertaining assortment of mini-games inspired by the show that only a fan could love.
    • 58 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    BreakQuest impresses with creative level design and novel physics-based play but sadly suffers from fundamental control issues.
    • 58 Metascore
    • 40 Critic Score
    Fumes Stunt Racer pays tribute to a gaming classic, yet fails to recapture the original's magic through a combination of poor handling, harsh linear progression, and glaring omissions.
    • 58 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Link the Slug is a bright and polished puzzler, but its lack of spark and ingenuity leaves it feeling a little flaccid.
    • 58 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    A game with a lot of big ideas, none of which it quite manages to see through.
