    Using a tag team style with two characters on each side, and with solid combo and superior moves this is a far harder and ultimately more satisfying game than Capcom's "Vs" series. [Jan 2007, p.84]

    The actual amount of fun you'll have playing is as miniscule as the Invisibles themselves. An adult-difficulty kids game that makes you swear like an OAP? No, thanks.

    "Megastar in the bathroom mirror" perfection. [July 2011, p.94]

    An uninspired, dated arcade racer that fails to stand out. [Mar 2011, p.94]

    • 72 Critic Score
    Looks brilliant for a downloadable game and there's tons to unlock too. [Mar 2008, p.80]

    All the usual trimmings are there. [Nov 2009, p.85]

    Fans will love its authenticity but it lacks the cross generational appeal of the source material. [Aug 2009, p.76]

    One epic fail. [Oct 2011, p.111]

    Frustratingly difficult. [Sept 2007, p.81]

    Worth a look for multiplayer. [Aug 2012, p.105]

    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]

    • 53 Critic Score
    Feels a bit half-arsed in execution. A missed opportunity, all in all. [Feb 2007, p.77]

    • 66 Metascore
    • 78 Critic Score
    Not quite the game its big brother is, but it's not far behind. It straddles the fun/sim divide well with fast, fluid racing. [March 2012, p.92]

    • 66 Metascore
    • 65 Critic Score
    It doesn't make you feel as involved as GRID or feel half as realistic as GT5: Prologue. [July 2009, p.77]
    • PSM3 Magazine UK
    • 65 Metascore
    • 77 Critic Score
    Customisation options make this the best AC yet, but it's not very user-friendly. [July 2007, p.76]

    • 59 Critic Score
    Not for everyone. [Nov 2011, p.111]

    Good workouts, but you need a 40ish Move controller to take part and motion detection is erratic. Otherwise, top stuff. [Sept 2011, p.102]

    Stick to the first game. [Mar 2008, p.80]

    Fans will love V's hardcore complexities and online battles. It's all poorly presented, and impenetrable for newcomers. [June 2012, p.109]

    It just isn't that interesting. [Christmas 2010, p.90]

    Not essential, but if you're mid-playthrough, it's a decent bet for 8 quid. [Oct 2011, p.110]

    Three flavours of average, and a fantastic opportunity missed. [Apr 2010, p.84]

    Does little to entice newcomers to the franchise. Still, it's pleasing to report that the series has a pulse and is still capable of surprising us. [June 2009, p.77]

    Voice acting keeps the story interesting, but you can skip it all in Arcade mode. [Aug 2007, p.78]

    • 65 Metascore
    • 64 Critic Score
    Tries too hard to ape other, similar games without following its own path. Shame. [May 2008, p.62]

    • 65 Metascore
    • 75 Critic Score
    Cheap but not cheap enough, EA Sports have smartly ditched the discs - and also much of the content. To boot, the gameplay is identical to '12. [June 2012, p.106]

    • 65 Metascore
    • 38 Critic Score
    Enjoy "Super Puzzle Fighter" - it's ace. Just a shame the rest of CPW is such balls. [Mar 2007, p.78]

    • 65 Metascore
    • 74 Critic Score
    Not terrible, but not as good as racers like GT Prologue. [Oct 2009, p.82]
    • PSM3 Magazine UK
    • 65 Metascore
    • 68 Critic Score
    There's the odd difficulty spike, too. [Apr 2011, p.90]

    • 65 Metascore
    • 67 Critic Score
    Essentially good at what it does. [Christmas 2009, p.90]
