Not as great as holding the peripherals, but this is a satisfying PSP alternative. [Aug 2009, p.68]

Mental acrobats will get a good workout. [Oct 2011, p.105]

The mechanics of the combat system are fine, but it doesn't have the scale of "Disgaea" and you'll long for more depth with every click. [Nov 2007, p.83]

It's fast and it's beautiful - but mostly it's classic WipEout. [Apr 2012, p.104]

Despite the niggles, this is still the usual brilliance. [May 2007, p.79]

Still brilliant. [Christmas 2008, p.86]

Stuffed to the point that it starts to feel like an incoherent mess. [Dec 2009, p.100]

An intelligent, original, and charming puzzler that's held back by awkward platforming and some erratic, often utterly illogical physics. [Aug 2012, p.100]

Unlike anything else out there: beautiful and inventive. [Christmas 2012, p.100]

Overall A challenging fighter that shows off the PSP's power. Slightly intimidating for non-fans, though.

Frantic, deep and explosive, but demanding with some rough edges. [Aug 2009, p.72]

Exaggerated, stupid and brutal... but we mean that as a compliment. The best beat-'em-up on PSP. [Sept 2006, p.66]

A joyful, successful new entry, thanks largely to its fearless approach to the medium. [Nov 2011, p.96]

Enormous fun, but let down by poor AI and single-player brevity. [Oct 2009, p.68]

The free-running and combat are a joy, and you'll be running around for pure fun. But an abundance of weak missions and a daft storyline get in the way all too often.

The best golf game you can buy, but - as before - not significantly different from the last game. [Nov 2006, p.82]

More vibrant than the original but still falls short of greatness. [Mar 2009, p.64]

An intriguing time-hopping concept hamstrung by substandard combat and unrefined level replays. Good, but not good enough. [March 2012, p.102]

Happy, funny and tiresome, DeathSpank is the Will Ferrell of games.

It's a solid enough game, then, but again not truly worthy of that 'next-gen' tag. [June 2007, p.83]

An improvement on FIFA 2008 in terms of tempo of play, but this still lacks real bite. [May 2008, p.68]

For all its showboating, this is an average action game with few standout moments. [Nov 2007, p.74]

A quality golf sim, but "Everybody's Golf 5" takes the major this year. [Nov 2007, p.83]

Won't insult your intelligence and won't exclude younger players. [Aug 2010, p.94]

Another familiar, quality MotorStorm, only with a new setting and less flashy visuals. [Nov 2009, p.31]

The complete package for any football-loving PSP owner. [Dec 2007, p.83]

A stylish, violent shooter wrapped up in a touching plot and lovely graphic-novel visuals. Not perfect, but deeply satisfying to blast through. [March 2012, p.106]

Some of the smartest gameplay available on PS3. [Feb 2011, p.101]
