Success, however, is equally rewarding, as gameplay quickly becomes absolutely addicting. [jan. 2007, p.83]- PSM Magazine

Even though the PS2 version of NHL 2K7 isn't as slick and refined as its next-gen sibling, NHL 2K7 is probably the best--and perhaps the last--hockey game you may ever play on the PS2. [Jan. 2007, p.83]- PSM Magazine

The controls are frustrating, the gameplay is mercilessly repetitious and even the humor gets old after a few hours. [Jan 2007, p.88]- PSM Magazine

A few more months and it really could have been something. [Dec. 2006, p.84]- PSM Magazine

It's a concept that works, but gets tough fast. [Nov. 2006, p.81]- PSM Magazine

Unfortunately, the ovverall pace of the game is bogged down by the numerous loading screens. [Dec. 2006, p.84]- PSM Magazine

It's not just one of this month's best releases--it's also one of the best games in the PS2 library. [Nov. 2006, p.70]- PSM Magazine

You don't muck much with a winning formula, and the latest Dance Dance Revolution incarnation is another solid entry to the franchise, forcing you to dance with the on-screen arrows until you keel over dead from exhaustion. [Dec. 2006, p.82]- PSM Magazine

This year, NBA Live falls just short of continuing its dynasty as the best basketball game around. [Nov 2006, p.73]- PSM Magazine

2K Sports came out with their "A" game this year, and NBA 2K7 looks to take the title as the best NBA game out there! [Nov. 2006, p.73]- PSM Magazine

So while the story's a boon, this doesn't come close to competing with "NBA 2K7." [Holiday 2006, p.86]- PSM Magazine

As is often the case with PSP games, the game has some control issues and suffers from low framerates and blurring. [Nov. 2006, p.80]- PSM Magazine

Even if you're a fan of anime, we recommend you keep your distance from Mamodo Fury. [Nov. 2006, p.81]- PSM Magazine

It's fun enough for a while, but even with a friend, the game gets repetitive before too long, so you're probably better off renting this one than buying it. [Nov. 2006, p.80]- PSM Magazine

It's not the most original game, but fans of the genre will certainly get their money's worth. [Dec. 2006, p.84]- PSM Magazine

A great game with charm to spare. If you're a Star Wars fan at all, you owe it to yourself to give it a try. [Oct 2006, p.82]- PSM Magazine

The game's simplicity is what really makes the game work: it's a game where you don't have to futz around with complicated controls, and camera control isn't an issue. [Nov 2006, p.78]- PSM Magazine

About as close to handheld perfection as the series can get. [Oct 2006, p.81]- PSM Magazine

Each stage is still full of repetitious androids to fight, and you still fight in nearly identical rooms and hallways. [Oct 2006, p.84]- PSM Magazine

It's not easy to make a good combat racer, even with all the mechs in the world, as this game so sorely points out. [Nov. 2006, p.80]- PSM Magazine

Health items do almost nothing, and being killed by a boss means another go-round of fetch. Skip it. [Dec. 2006, p.82]- PSM Magazine

One Piece: Pirate's Carnival is the latest game to try to capitalize on the success of Nintendo's "Mario Party" games by giving us another video board game, but it just ends up falling flat. [July 2006, p.86]- PSM Magazine

The bad news--if you're jonesing to light the lamp with the new Skill Stick, well, you can't--only passing is allowed in the PS2 version, which leaves us feeling like we got the shaft. [Holiday 2006, p.86]- PSM Magazine

Electronic Arts must have heard our wishes for a PSP hockey game withouth Gretzky's name in the title, because NHL 07 is like a dream come true. [Holiday 2006, p.86]- PSM Magazine

The better handling is offset by a useless new adrenaline meter. [Holiday 2006, p.86]- PSM Magazine

While the improved handling has bettered the console game experience, the limited movement of the PSP's analog stick will have you swerving all over the track, and playing bumper cars at 185 mph. [Holiday 2006, p.86]- PSM Magazine
