Serious Sam isn't a terrible game, but it's one that's better left to more advanced hardware than the Game Boy Advance. [Summer 2004, p.40]- Pocket Games
-
- Critic Score
Even people who love the cartoon will realize how cheap and incomplete this game is. [Spring 2003, p.34]- Pocket Games
-
- Critic Score
Abysmal. The graphics are terrible, the control is loose, and the gameplay is incredibly repetitive. [Spring 2004, p.48]- Pocket Games
-
- Critic Score
With abundant action tied into a good story, Daredevil has a larger appeal than most movie-licensed games. [Summer 2003, p.39]- Pocket Games

- Critic Score
The only thing you'll be jamming is your head into a wall. [Summer 2002, p.38]- Pocket Games

- Critic Score
Every fight and puzzle "packed" into this game's 20-plus levels would be found in the first level of most other games. [Fall 2003, p.51]- Pocket Games
-
- Critic Score
Handling isn't exceptional, nor is replay value, but it'll pass muster. [Summer 2003, p.39]- Pocket Games
-
- Critic Score
Anyone who ever loved Looney Tunes cartoons will be disappointed at this poor representation of the timeless characters. [Spring 2004, p.43]- Pocket Games
-
- Critic Score
Despite the decent visuals, the repetitive action drags this one down. Thankfully the game can be completed in about two hours. [Summer 2003, p.49]- Pocket Games
-
- Critic Score
With "Doom II" and "Nightfire" on the market, there's no reason whatsoever to go near this title. [Summer 2003, p.43]- Pocket Games
-
- Critic Score
One of the worst port jobs in history. Just playable enough to make you wish that it weren't so broken. [Summer 2004, p.39]- Pocket Games
-
- Critic Score
A complete waste of the Jurassic Park license. [Winter 2001, p.53]- Pocket Games
-
- Critic Score
Add in the poorly executed control scheme, muddy graphics, tinny sound and less than five hours of gameplay, and you're looking at a game that simply doesn't justify the price of admission. [Fall 2003, p.43]- Pocket Games
-
- Critic Score
A so-so system that doesn't offer enough action to counter the lack of depth. [Summer 2003, p.49]- Pocket Games
-
- Critic Score
The main problem with this game is that it's too easy and repetitive. Enemy A.I. offers almost no resistance, aside from instances where they physically block a corridor. [Spring 2004, p.44]- Pocket Games
-
- Critic Score
There is no reason for such a simplistic, thrown-together game. It doesn't even have any excerpts from the original story! [Spring 2004, p.40]- Pocket Games
-
- Critic Score
There are better fighting games out there for GBA, even for hardcore fans of Dragon Ball Z. [Spring 2004, p.40]- Pocket Games
-
- Critic Score
Not even the most hardcore Star Wars fans should go anywhere near this game. [Spring 2004, p.47]- Pocket Games
-
- Critic Score
Overall, we'd prefer death to torture, and perhaps both to an extended session playing this game. [Winter 2002, p.47]- Pocket Games
-
- Critic Score
A slow, ugly, frustratingly bad adaptation that doesn't even deserve to have the Gauntlet name attached. [July 2003, p.32]- Pocket Games
-
- Critic Score
The main part of the game is a complete mockery of the Defender franchise. [Spring 2003, p.31]- Pocket Games
-
- Critic Score
Midway's GBA effort falls flatter than a microbe run down by a rampant cartoon steamroller. [Spring 2004, p.46]- Pocket Games
-
- Critic Score
Single-player mode has you spending more time trying to avoid getting hit than aiming for the hoop, which gets annoying real quick. [Fall 2003, p.54]- Pocket Games
-
- Critic Score
Despite a wealth of material to draw from, it's a poorly-executed game that lets down anime fans and gamers alike. [Summer 2004, p.44]- Pocket Games
-
- Critic Score
Mildly intriguing, this action-adventure - based on the motion picture of the same name - offers thrills and chills in limited amounts. [Summer 2004, p.43]- Pocket Games
-
- Critic Score
Has the feel of a hasty port, which is par for the course with Mortal Kombat games these days. But fun for a short while. [Summer 2003, p.30]- Pocket Games
-
- Critic Score
If this were the last game on Earth, we'd probably leave in a spaceship that we'd built for the express purpose of avoiding it. [Summer 2002, p.36]- Pocket Games
-

I'd be embarrassed to gift it to a drooling infant - Lucha is irresponsibly bad. [Spring 2004, p.44]- Pocket Games
-
- Critic Score
You could compile a flip-book with photographs of your favorite wrestlers and make a better game than this. [Aug 2003, p.35]- Pocket Games
-

The ball reacts to the table and flippers exactly how you would expect. [Summer 2003, p.41]- Pocket Games

The cars are more like self-driving robots than dangerous vehicles. [Summer 2003, p.38]- Pocket Games
-
- Critic Score
Everywhere you look, this game screams cheap. The weak A.I., the stale graphics, the password-save system, the fact that you can complete the entire thing in under an hour... It's no wonder this game hit the bargain bin the day it came out. [Spring 2004, p.45]- Pocket Games
-
- Critic Score
The most comprehensive GBA ballgame available. [Summer 2003, p.42]- Pocket Games
-
- Critic Score
Even with 24 missions and six other play modes, this is strictly a two-day play thorugh at best. [Summer 2004, p.42]- Pocket Games

There isn't as much depth as Konami's classic series, but there are enough secret levels and items to find to keep you entertained for quite a while. [Fall 2003, p.47]- Pocket Games
