    • 77 Metascore
    • 73 Critic Score
    An ordinary shooty adventure, dressed up in a bizarre plot. With knob gags. [Aug 2011, p.82]
    • 61 Metascore
    • 73 Critic Score
    Keeps things simple. [Jan 2010, p.95]
    • PSM3 Magazine UK
    • 67 Metascore
    • 73 Critic Score
    Overall Technically audacious, but the huge map means FUEL loses focus.
    • 73 Metascore
    • 73 Critic Score
    A brilliant, and occasionally very funny, strategy title. [June 2010, p.98]
    • PSM3 Magazine UK
    • 73 Metascore
    • 73 Critic Score
    While the racing is good fun, the series' sense of adventure is lacking. [Christmas 2012, p.101]
    • PSM3 Magazine UK
    • 70 Metascore
    • 73 Critic Score
    Brash and bloody, Relic's action-centric take on Warhammer does nothing extraordinary but delivers more fun and quality than the average shooter.
    • 63 Metascore
    • 73 Critic Score
    A good old-fashioned FPS. It looks scrappy and it's short on innovation, but the combat makes up for it. [May 2007, p.74]
    • 65 Metascore
    • 73 Critic Score
    Good workouts, but you need a 40ish Move controller to take part and motion detection is erratic. Otherwise, top stuff. [Sept 2011, p.102]

    • 76 Metascore
    • 73 Critic Score
    MAG
    Technically impressive but MAG is too scattershot to universally appeal. [Mar 2010, p.84]
    • PSM3 Magazine UK
    • 84 Metascore
    • 73 Critic Score
    Conservative, messy and patchily designed, GT5 only intermittently excites. [Jan 2011, p.79]
    • PSM3 Magazine UK
    • 67 Metascore
    • 73 Critic Score
    Addictive minigames, great arcade tennis and sunny visuals. But a bit basic at its core. [Apr 2008, p.68]
    • PSM3 Magazine UK
    • 83 Metascore
    • 73 Critic Score
    Incredible polish, great visuals and slick combat eclipse the random battle wheel and repetitive environments. Just. [June 2008, p.82]
    • PSM3 Magazine UK
    • 72 Metascore
    • 73 Critic Score
    Sometimes thrilling online, but with only average gunplay and a duff story. [July 2011, p.82]
    • PSM3 Magazine UK
    • 58 Metascore
    • 72 Critic Score
    It can be compelling, in short bursts at least. [Christmas 2010, p.89]
    • PSM3 Magazine UK
    • 70 Metascore
    • 72 Critic Score
    There's enough action here to distract, but compared to its peers TimeShift feels outdated. [Jan 2008, p.74]
    • PSM3 Magazine UK
    • 72 Metascore
    • 72 Critic Score
    The Club is pretty ballsy, and tears up the shooters' rule book to provide something unique. The arcade-style blasting is instantly fun and it looks and feels meaty, but the enjoyment quickly wears thin due ot a lack of variety. [Feb 2008, p.74]
    • 78 Metascore
    • 72 Critic Score
    It's entertaining, amusing and its screen-filling boss battles are impressive, but it's completely throwaway. [Dec 2006, p.96]
    • PSM3 Magazine UK
    • 66 Metascore
    • 72 Critic Score
    Looks brilliant for a downloadable game and there's tons to unlock too. [Mar 2008, p.80]
    • PSM3 Magazine UK
    • 73 Metascore
    • 72 Critic Score
    A great driving game if you're new to the Need for Speed series, otherwise it's a bit same old, same old. [Christmas 2006, p.95]
    • PSM3 Magazine UK
    • 57 Metascore
    • 72 Critic Score
    It doesn't do too much to suggest it's anything more than a Costcutter GTA, but it's a fun nostalgia-soaked affair. [July 2007, p.80]
    • PSM3 Magazine UK
    • 75 Metascore
    • 72 Critic Score
    Not bad for 3 quid 19, but don't expect hours of entertainment. [May 2009, p.76]
    • PSM3 Magazine UK
    • 81 Metascore
    • 72 Critic Score
    More things to do than the original but its similarity means it's lacking in novelty. [Mar 2009, p.68]
    • 74 Metascore
    • 72 Critic Score
    Not just for Rugby experts. [Oct 2007, p.76]
    • 72 Metascore
    • 72 Critic Score
    It's aged badly. The PS3 version looks like the PC version running on low detail...It's a fair attempt, but in no way essential. [Apr 2007, p.79]
    • 71 Metascore
    • 72 Critic Score
    Suitably atmospheric psycho-horror with a couple of flaws. [Dec 2008, p.72]
    • PSM3 Magazine UK
    • 60 Metascore
    • 72 Critic Score
    A buffed-up Central Park can't distract from some upsetting gameplay blunders. [July 2007, p.72]
    • PSM3 Magazine UK
    • 68 Metascore
    • 72 Critic Score
    Pushes PS2 about as far as a toast making sim, but Iris 2 is an endearing adventure nevertheless. [Oct 2006, p.82]
    • PSM3 Magazine UK
    • 65 Metascore
    • 72 Critic Score
    Not essential, but if you're mid-playthrough, it's a decent bet for 8 quid. [Oct 2011, p.110]
    • PSM3 Magazine UK
    • 73 Metascore
    • 72 Critic Score
    A rip-roaring ride, but it's a shame it feels so familiar. [Dec 2007, p.83]
    • PSM3 Magazine UK
    • 76 Metascore
    • 72 Critic Score
    A surprisingly deep multi-player mode. [Sept 2008, p.78]
