This year's PSP Tiger has cut its load times down to a mere eight or nine seconds per hole. That alone is enough to make this a "must buy." [Nov 2005, p.98]- PSM Magazine

Street Fighter Alpha 3 Max tales everything the PS version of “Street Fighter Alpha 3” had, miniaturizes it, and adds a couple of new features. [Mar 2006,p.86]- PSM Magazine

The combat is actually the biggest letdown: while relying on an interesting mechanic, it just doesn't hold up for an entire game. [August 2002, p.23]- PSM Magazine

- Critic Score
Great for parties and provides a very unique experience, but there's not a lot of replay potential for solo players. Still, the concept is definitely exciting. [Nov 2003, p.44]- PSM Magazine

Although the more mundane tasks get tiring by the end, the boss battle rock, and the joy of simply cruising from building to building is a thrill no gamer should miss. [Sept 2004, p.25]- PSM Magazine

The rowdy juice that gave "NBA Street" its flavor has been poured on a football. It has the playability of a "Madden" game, but the wilder action will have you whoopin' it up. [Mar 2004, p.36]- PSM Magazine
-
- Critic Score
The best WWE game ever made for the PS2. Why didn't I score it higher? Despite the extra polish and new additions, it isn't that different from what's come before. [Dec 2004, p.70]- PSM Magazine

- Critic Score
This PSP racing port of a port delivers the incredible mileage and deep features of the console version, save some graphical downscaling and minor tweaks. [June 2007, p.80]- PSM Magazine

Competition or not, there isn't a better PS3 basketball game. [Feb. 2007, p.79]- PSM Magazine

Sure, it doesn't do anything really new, but it doesn't have to: it's just a lot of fun, and that's more than enough reason to recommend it. [May 2007, p.76]- PSM Magazine

A jaw-dropping arcade shooter - think "SOCOM" with drivable tanks and vehicles. [Dec 2005, p.112]- PSM Magazine

It may only be a year or so from topping "Winning Eleven." [Nov 2005, p.92]- PSM Magazine

Yes, Call of Duty 3 has its share of problems, but the action is appropriately intense and cinematic in scope, and the new features are great. [Jan. 2007, p.78]- PSM Magazine
-
- Critic Score
A decent game for players new to the genre, but there is little to be found behind its shiny façade. [Oct 2003, p.38]- PSM Magazine

It's rare that game arrives that looks this good, plays this well, and feels this fun and fresh. [Feb 2003, p.26]- PSM Magazine

MotoGP 3's main fault, if you can call it that, is that the game is all too similar to "MotoGP 2." [Apr 2003, p.27]- PSM Magazine

Even with these kinks, this is still undoubtedly the best WWE SmackDown game yet, and is well worth playing, even if you played the hell out of last years's game. [Holiday 2006, p.73]- PSM Magazine

Its story, gameplay, and presentation are so good and so unique, it's easily the best RPG to hit the PSP, not to mention one of the best of the last two console generations. [Sep 2006, p.79]- PSM Magazine
