Massive, rewarding, funny - all you'd expect, plus some cute new twists. [Nov 2009, p.66]

Improved, with enough here to keep you busy till "Persona 4." [Feb 2009, p.84]

"Quotation Forthcoming"

The best FIFA yet. Will even make huge PES fans think twice. [Nov 2009, p.80]

Overall Nothing much new - except for the most dazzling playlist to grace the series yet. Great.

Overall Intelligent, inventive... Crush's main drawback is its steep learning curve. But that's what brains are for, right?

The solo campaign is fun but bombastic to point of being bewildering, but the rest of the (gargantuan) package is typically life-consuming stuff. [Christmas 2011, p.96]

Overall Sexy, epic and wonderfully ridiculous - a slick action game.

The sweetest eye candy around, low on strategy but alive with punchy action. First-rate. [Apr 2008, p.80]

There's more quality sports action here than you'll ever need. [Oct 2008, p.74]

"Quotation Forthcoming"

A well-paced and great-looking adventure, and one that rewards time spent with some incredible sights. [Aug 2011, p.92]

Uniquely entertaining, if cliched at times. [Jan 2008, p.60]

A slightly improved, gleeful and irresistible triumph only tempered by familiarity. [Issue#174, p.76]

Home console-quality scrapping that doesn't hurt your thumbs. An essential purchase for fight fans. [Sept 2006, p.70]

Great looks gel with genius game design. [Christmas 2006, p.20]

Another superb PSN offering from the Pixeljunk team. [Feb 2010, p.92]

Epic, tactical and polished - this will work your brain. [Nov 2007, p.82]

It's a clever retooling of a very overused concept, and lots of lovely fun. [Dec 2011, p.111]

A charming fantasy adventure bursting with soul. The platforming is 2D; everything else is deep and intuitive. [March 2012, p.113]

Faster and more aggressive, SCV is what the series needed. Long term fans may bemoan the changes, but this is the perfect starting point for newcomers. [Feb 2012, p.94]

A fantastic rally game wrapped up in extreme sports presentation. [Oct 2009, p.62]

Flawed in structure, but magnificent to play, Paradise is within touching distance of vital. [Feb 2008, p.62]

All a Scarface game should be - full of action, swearing, sleaze, '80s music, decadence... it's a pure joy.[Dec 2006, p.80]

The best FIFA yet, but a post width shy of vital for solo players. [June 2010, p.94]

Funny, clever and original, it's not really mini at heart at all. [Oct 2011, p.111]

Pro Evo 2010's headline improvements outweigh those in FIFA 10, but EA's game was at a position of greater strength, and has arguably made a more significant leap, with lots of smaller refinements...We're cautiously proud to confirm PES is back on track. [Nov 2009, p.72]

DMC3, but easier. If you don't have the original, get it. [Oct 2006, p.87]
