    There simply isn't enough to do, especially for a 3DS game. Throw in poor dialogue and barely evident stereoscopic 3D effects, and Bird Mania 3D just isn't worth your time.
    • 51 Metascore
    • 40 Critic Score
    As gorgeous as it looks, and as clever as it sounds, Wide Sky plays like a mess.
    • 51 Metascore
    • 30 Critic Score
    A bland and boring shooter with no surprises or fresh ideas within, R.I.P. Rally is an ugly shambles.
    • 51 Metascore
    • 40 Critic Score
    A dreary button masher that's neither interesting or exciting enough to recommend.
    • 51 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Resisting the action-packed role-playing adventure awaiting you in Alien Syndrome is futile. While not terribly innovative, it's a solid title with flaws that can easily be overlooked in favour of a good time.
    • 51 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    An interesting change of direction for the series that actually adds something to the genre it ends up in.
    • 51 Metascore
    • 30 Critic Score
    Spy Hunter's poor handling and dire visuals make this one of the least impressive PS Vita titles to date. Even long-term Spy Hunter devotees will struggle to get behind this one.
    • 51 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Some great moments can be salvaged here, despite the ramshackle port.
    • 51 Metascore
    • 40 Critic Score
    Too easy and too slow, aside from the wonderful visual design, there's very little in AMF Bowling Pinbusters! to sustain your interest. Lack of touchscreen play only serves to add to the disappointment.
    • 51 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    Cubic Ninja tilts towards the bargain bin with awkward controls and maddeningly silly level design.
    • 51 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    A half-decent RTS that only partially embraces the strengths of its source material and suffers from irritating performance and control issues.
    • 51 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Admittedly loyal to the band's latest release, Gorillaz: Escape to Plastic Beach is a scatterbrained affair that doesn't deliver in terms of gameplay.
    • 51 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    An exacting simulation and management game that has you controlling most every aspect of your minions' lives.
    • 51 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    An utterly unique if disappointingly shallow exploration-based shooter.
    • 51 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    The mini-games are just as fun as they've always been and the cute visuals have lost none of their charm, but Adventure mode is perfunctory and crudely made.
    • 51 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    It might be ugly, stupid, and often unintentionally hilarious, but Die Hard is fun enough that for whatever brief period of your life you waste on it you won't mind.
    • 51 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    It has some shocking flaws, but Skater Cat is still just about good enough to be worth a recommendation.
    • 51 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    The game of the film of the book has exploration, adventuring, action, and loads of mini-games but Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix ends up being a confusing mush of ideas.
    • 51 Metascore
    • 30 Critic Score
    A remake of an old WarioWare mini-game, Paper Plane is simple, frustrating and almost completely without merit.
    • 51 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    A well-made tower defence game that, for a free-to-play title, comes at a high price. Alien Creeps TD is fully featured but a tad expensive.
    • 51 Metascore
    • 40 Critic Score
    Ugly, cumbersome to control, and lacking fun, Resident Evil Mercenaries VS. casts a dark spot on Capcom's survival-horror franchise.
    • 51 Metascore
    • 40 Critic Score
    Less an adolescent social simulation and more a lesson in pandering, Brooktown High fails to make the grade.
    • 51 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    A stealth-action game that isn't lacking in bright ideas, Riddick: The Merc Files clouds its best bits with a generally clunky, unfinished feel.
    • 50 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    A deeply ordinary third-person shooter made considerably more interesting by the addition of co-op multiplayer.
    • 50 Metascore
    • 30 Critic Score
    Although Double Shot won't necessarily disappoint fans of the series, and vintage games generally, it's an extraordinarily lazy sequel that trades on the moderate success of a 20-year-old arcade game.
    • 50 Metascore
    • 30 Critic Score
    While it's not actually broken or violently offensive, Hurry Up Hedgehog! is one of the most listless bits of shovelware going. Get the original board game if you must, but give this a miss.
    • 50 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    The Incredible Hulk isn't actually a bad game, but it's a shame that, despite shaking them up a little, it's not quite good enough to HULK SMASH! our preconceptions.
    • 50 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    This Wesley Snipes-driven adventure manages to be both boring and frustrating.
    • 50 Metascore
    • 40 Critic Score
    A bland experienced robbed of energy and excitement by identikit missions and limited level design.
    • 50 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Starlight Inception aims for the stars, but thanks to a barrage of issues, never really makes it past lift-off.
