    Best scrapper ever? Perhaps, but VF5 is <I>such</I> an acquired taste. Great, but not one for all. [Mar 2007, p.64]

    Only a slight lack of personality and a few motion sickness issues stop this [from] scoring higher. [Apr 2007, p.86]

    Not small and not perfectly formed, but packs a wicked punch. Accomplished, but stops short of brilliance. [May 2007, p.60]

    There’s nothing ground-breaking going on here, but the mix of combat - shooting and hand-to-hand - and simple obstacles - jump over, slide under - is diverting enough. Of course it’s nowhere near enough to stop Ghost Rider from being another totally forgettable licensed-game experience.
    • 49 Metascore
    • 65 Critic Score
    Unusually, the PSP version of Ghost Rider actually has a little more to it than its PS2 counterpart. [Mar 2007, p.60]

    The Warriors retains its inherent "coolness" and remains more than decent fun. [Apr 2007, p.86]

    If its girly nature doesn't put you off, you'll have a good time. Otherwise, you'd better look elsewhere. [July 2007, p.85]

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

    It's by no means perfect, but PES6 is the best footie game on PSP and is essential for fans of the series. [Christmas 2006, p.88]

    DQ and FF do things better than Rogue Galaxy but if you've finished both this will fill a hole. [June 2007, p.74]

    • 47 Critic Score
    It is worth a rent, however, just to savour the few good bits, laugh at all the glitches... and to start crying when you remember what Sonic games used to be like in the '90s. Sob.

    There's loads to do, and if you've enough mates there's a four-player Wi-Fi mode to get to grips with as well. [Apr 2007, p.87]

    Even the most rabid of fans will be disappointed. [Sept 2007, p.80]

    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.

    Online rankings are the icing on this outwardly bland, but ultimately rather tasty cake. [May 2007, p.77]

    BB Evolution requires a lot of legwork for very little reward and it won't keep you entertained for long. [Nov 2006, p.86]

    • 52 Critic Score
    A lazy port of a dull original - just what PlayStation 3's UK launch could do without. [Apr 2007, p.84]
    • 67 Metascore
    • 36 Critic Score
    It's a budget PlayStation 2 game wearing its big sister's high-definition make-up. It's abominable, and just thinking about it makes the veins in our forehead bulge. [Feb 2007, p.64]

    Tedious gameplay with stitched-on flying bits? You've got yourself another drab Star Wars adventure. Rubbish. [Jan 2007, p.68]
    • PSM3 Magazine UK
    • 59 Metascore
    • 40 Critic Score
    It's very old-fashioned, very familiar and very frustrating - much like it ever was, then - but at least you can still enjoy blowing up all the lemmings for fun. [May 2007, p.76]

    The background tries so hard to be next generation it simply ends up putting you off or making the numbers too hard to read. [May 2007, p.77]

    Ultimately, MGS: PO is like eating a platter of finely crafted hors d'oeuvres - easy to digest, but compromised and repetitive. It's just less satisfying than a set menu of balanced textures and flavours - and, simply, why "MGS: Snake Eater is still Kojima's tastiest dish. [Feb 2007, p.60]
    • 64 Metascore

    It's all a bit too monotonous. [Feb 2007, p.66]

    Fundamentally no different to the PS2 game, though still worth playing if you're new to Round 3. [Feb 2007, p.56]

    Dodgy controls and poor AI ruin what should have been a belter. [Feb 2007, p.74]

    With some improvements to the camera control, pushing a blob of mercury around is as fun as ever. [Christmas 2006, p.98]

    Retro goodness - with only a few stinkers. Bliss. [Mar 2007, p.78]

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

    We'd still recommend getting a cheap copy of one of the various "Conflict" games instead. [Feb 2007, p.78]

    • 31 Critic Score
    Curiously, the real stars of the show - the blokes at West Coast Customs - aren't here. Instead, you drive around the fictional city in unresponsive cars. [May 2007, p.78]
