It's by no means a disaster but the tweaks have left it wobbling on its feet. [Apr 2011, p.84]

Solid, but no longer unique. [Apr 2011, p.90]

A light-hearted but patchy take on RPG free-roaming, with a personality that will suffocate or delight. [Oct 2006, p.84]

Good set pieces and decent controls, but minor flaws mean it wins a battle, not the war for PSP shooters. [May 2007, p.72]

If you've got even a passing interest in aircraft this is definitely worth a look. [Feb 2008, p.78]

Not the greatest lightgun game we've ever played, but an amusing and suitably impressive shrine to bad taste. [Jan 2012, p.103]

Perfect if you can't go to the gym, but frustrating for workout fanatics.

There's very little for bike-sim fans to complain about, but equally little to win over new comers to this niche genre. [July 2009, p.76]

You could do a lot worse. [June 2009, p.76]

Classic Monkey Ball, with some nice stages. Lacks depth, though, and the shoddy use of Vita's controls takes the shine off. [Christmas 2012, p.103]
