Not bad, but not essential. [Mar 2009, p.75]

Despite the low(ish) price, this is far from a no-brainer. [Oct 2008, p.79]

"Quotation Forthcoming"

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

More like a third-person shooter and this works to its benefit. [Nov 2007, p.83]

A passable, if unimaginative brawler with decent co-op. [Dec 2009, p.102]

Essentially good at what it does. [Christmas 2009, p.90]

The Champions League is a amazing showcase of the drama and passion of the beautiful game, but EA have botched its transition to PS2 by simply repackaging "FIFA 07" with minor tweaks and insubstantial additions. Quite simply, a wasted opportunity.

Patchy fun, but lack of polish and predictability betray its lack of reach. [June 2009, p.68]

As awkward as "Hacksaw" Jim Duggan wrestling today, WWE 12 delivers but a fraction of the changes it needed. [Christmas 2011, p.95]

This is an action game with lots to get your teeth into, but you always feel reigned back by the fiddly controls. [Jan 2008, p.80]

Competent but doesn't rectify the criticisms of Ace Combat X. [Oct 2010, p.96]

Fun for a while. [Christmas 2010, p.88]

It'll give you an hour or two of laughs for the price of half a pint. [Christmas 2011, p.110]

As a solo game, it's very repetitive. [Apr 2012, p.103]

A pure old fashioned score-attack hit. [Aug 2011, p.92]

There's plenty here to excite action-orien[]ted RPG fans. [Apr 2011, p.90]

It's a bit simple, but the addictive minigames save it. [Jan 2007, p.84]

Enjoyable, but far too short to buy and technically a bit of a mess. [May 2009, p.70]

A game that's as easy to refuse as the Playstation 2 version was. [Apr 2007, p.86]

If you're part of the miniscule demographic interested in it, Blood Bowl is deep and often rewarding to play. [Nov 2009, p.66]

A solid racer ruined - on PS3 - by lag. Wait and hope it's patched. [May 2011, p.82]

A decent remake of a classic platformer, but it's ultimately too hard, too old-fashioned and too short-lived. [Oct 2006, p.72]

Fun online, but a weak single-player, duff quests and some seriously ropey combat make this a disappointment. [Oct 2007, p.82]

Awful bosses, poor story, and unimaginative level design bury sexy guns and good looks. [Apr 2012, p.92]

Hardly essential, but an excellent first dancing game. [Mar 2007, p.78]
