A fun objective-focused shooter with a good premise and ideas, but less satisfying core combat. [Issue#25, p.46]

A fun sandbox game in small doses, but it's ultimately far too limited to keep you hooked long term. [Issue#22, p.54]

It's not by any means an awful first-person shooter, just a Wolfenstein on the series' reputation. [Issue#25, p.43]

Diesel-powered, but it’s lacking the turbo injection that we want.

Surprisingly solid old-fashioned skill-based fun, limited by linear level design. [Issue#24, p.57]

It's great to have Sam back, but it hasn't whet our appetite for Serious Sam 3. [Issue#28, p.57]

A brave but ultimately flawed game that only delivers on all that was promised in very short bursts. [Issue#16, p.58]

Close to a new Elder Scrolls, but nowhere near as realised. [Issue#25, p.51]
