    Look, there just isn’t anything to get excited about here.

    But it doesn't hold up well in 2010 and if this genre is to have any future at all, it needs a big ol' update.
    • 29 Metascore
    • 27 Critic Score
    This terribly conceived, designed, and produced title isn't worth the cost of the plastic for the case. As we said in the intro, stay as far away from this as humanly possible.

    Biker Mice From Mars is a total waste of time. We can't put it any more succinctly than that.
    • 27 Metascore
    • 28 Critic Score
    Then there’s the issue of the game’s awful instability: It’s glitchy, buggy, and just poorly put together. When you combine everything, you get a monumentally disappointing experience that really isn’t worth the price of admission. Plain ol’ nostalgia will only get you so far, Bloober Team.
    • 27 Metascore
    • 31 Critic Score
    Really, only the control is a possible saving grace but that’s not enough to compensate for the tremendously bad presentation, design, style, and overall gameplay.

    • 32 Critic Score
    It's not often we get something quite this bad. If you have a sense of humor when it comes to truly awful games, we might actually recommend you rent this one, because you'll be laughing yourself silly within a few minutes of play.

    Might be worth the budget price tag if - repeat, if - you're a fan of the sport. It's simply not an accomplished enough title to be worth it for anyone else; there are just too many shortcomings, here.

    • 45 Critic Score
    So in the end, there are plenty of great games out there, and without any doubt, this definitely isn't one of them.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 65 Critic Score
    An okay effort, but it's hampered by average technicals, insane repetitiveness, outrageously frustrating preparation, and only fleeting moments of fun.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 33 Critic Score
    The storyline is completely uninteresting and suffers from pacing issues, every last battle feels identical - and that includes the lame boss encounters - and combat is all about jamming on the same buttons.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 18 Critic Score
    You could close your eyes and point to any spot on the shelf, and you'd have a 99.9% chance of coming up with something better than this. It won't satisfy fans of the sport, it won't open the eyes of non-fans, and it's nothing more than a slow, plodding, boring, often confusing, and downright pitiful production.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 46 Critic Score
    The game suffers from a decided lack of control, the fixed camera should’ve been completely reformatted, the environments are unappealing, the story isn’t worth following, and the gameplay as a whole falters big time.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 66 Critic Score
    A passable title, due entirely to the depth and relatively accurate race physics. Unfortunately, despite all the tuning and customizing you can do, the depth doesn't translate to a full-on simulation experience, especially because the physics aren't quite that realistic.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 40 Critic Score
    We have to give Crave props for trying to break the monotony by letting us create our own character and customize our own pad, and we do appreciate the different play areas, but this just doesn’t work as a video game.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 68 Critic Score
    RTL didn't do a bad job, but the final product is too bare-bones to recommend a purchase.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 91 Critic Score
    Do you like Guitar Hero's tracklist more, or Rock Band 2's? My personal choice is Guitar Hero: World Tour, as its louder and heavier soundtrack puts a bigger smile on my face than Rock Band 2's unusual mix.

    • 36 Critic Score
    SCORE International: Baja 1000 is, quite simply, a waste of anyone’s time, and that includes fans of the niche off-road racing genre.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 45 Critic Score
    Slow, and stupid. Fielders will inexplicably hold onto the ball before moving to throw it, which in turn causes a whole lot of infield hits.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 30 Critic Score
    We have no way of recommending this game, even if you’re desperate for some multiplayer summer sports fun. Beijing 2008 is another waste of money, but at the very least, this one doesn’t cost as much. Well, whatever. Bleh.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 38 Critic Score
    Hannah Montana: Spotlight World Tour may deliver the music the fans want, but as far as the gameplay goes, there are just too many problems for us to recommend a purchase, even for the most ardent Hannah follower.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 47 Critic Score
    I did expect lackluster technical aspects, but I also expected a fun, bouncy little adventure. Instead, I got nothing like that, so I ended up with a concept that didn’t fit the spirit of Garfield, and while the controls and design should be commended to a point, the rest is just too boring and flawed to bother with.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 20 Critic Score
    Army Men: Soldiers of Misfortune continues the tradition of disastrous video game productions. Way back when, I described the gameplay in Green Rogue as "the place good control goes to die." That same description can be used here.

    • 45 Critic Score
    If it isn't obvious by now, I'll make it painfully obvious here...this is a terrible game with no redeemable merits. Championship Paintball 2009 offers absolutely nothing in terms of fun or a rewarding experience. It is one of the most monotone, hollow gaming experiences available and you're better off putting your gaming money elsewhere.

    The control can be iffy, a few of the event mechanics are horrendous, the technicals are sadly well under par, and the Campaign includes plenty of “what the hell am I doing this for?” moments. But you can wrap your brain around most of the gameplay, and that’s a definite plus. With multiple difficulty levels and the chance to include some buddies in your play time, you could have plenty of fun when the wintry weather keeps you inside.

    Tale of Despereaux really tries. We’ll give it that. But with such loose and wonky control, a fixed camera that’s functional yet still problematic, and a repetitive adventure that grows tiresome all too soon, the game doesn’t deliver.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 75 Critic Score
    Trivial Pursuit may still be best experienced with a group of friends around the dining room table, but you won’t be able to deny that the virtual version offers some great fun and several modes that would be cumbersome to recreate in real life.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    The smoothness, animation fluidity, accessibility, setup, and fun factor are all more than acceptable and despite those ridiculously long load times, we still wanted to play. And that, as far as we’re concerned, is a good sign.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 25 Critic Score
    Don’t overcomplicate things for a title like this; it’s just gonna fall flat on its face.

    Cabela’s Outdoor Adventures is an okay production that has some nice elements and makes a valiant effort to be well worth the $40 price tag. It falls just a little shy.
