    Fundamentally fun, but just far too broken to win TPCG kudos. [Issue#12, p.58]

    Beautifully written and visualised. Adventure fans will be seduced. [Issue#9, p.59]

    • 69 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    Some original concepts let down by terrible repetition in look, feel and execution.
    • 69 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    As casual as a Saturday night dancefloor encounter. [Issue#23, p.49]
    • Total PC Gaming
    • 69 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Surprisingly solid old-fashioned skill-based fun, limited by linear level design. [Issue#24, p.57]
    • Total PC Gaming
    • 69 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    An ingenious concept and fun to play but not without its faults.
    • 69 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    A sweeping but imperfect RTS. One for casual gamers only. [Issue#26, p.47]

    • 69 Metascore
    • 30 Critic Score
    Unfulfilling micromanagement makes FIFA Manager a poor match for the competition. [Issue#16, p.67]

    • 70 Critic Score
    If you've got plenty of time to dig in the virtual earth, Cities XL will reward you. [Issue#26, p.52]
    • Total PC Gaming
    • 68 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Ideal if you want to dip your toe into RTS and love the sound of your own voice.
    • 68 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    It's infrequently fun but brainless run-and-gun. [Issue#31, p.46]
    • Total PC Gaming
    • 68 Metascore
    • 90 Critic Score
    A touching game we thought about long after its end. [Issue#23, p.62]

    • 68 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    It's great to have Sam back, but it hasn't whet our appetite for Serious Sam 3. [Issue#28, p.57]
    • Total PC Gaming
    • 67 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    A good horror/puzzle game that's unfortunately got itself confused with "Portal." [Issue#13, p.64]
    • Total PC Gaming
    • 67 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    A sophisticated, well-paced and remarkably different entry into the RTS genre.
    • 67 Metascore
    • 40 Critic Score
    FUEL is a big world of promise, but sadly it can't deliver most of them. [Issue#23, p.54]
    • Total PC Gaming
    • 67 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    An enjoyable trading and strategy experience, let down by lacklustre combat. [Issue#23, p.56]
    • Total PC Gaming
    • 66 Metascore
    • 30 Critic Score
    Clearly there's still a market for this stuff - we're guessing in Japan? [Issue#19, p.58]
    • Total PC Gaming
    • 66 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    It's fun but too fiddly, and lacks the charm of the superior original. [Issue#29, p.53]
    • Total PC Gaming
    • 65 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Flying at an altitude combat flight sim aficionados will appreciate. [Issue#26, p.53]
    • Total PC Gaming
    • 65 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Too hardcore for casual gamers, but strategists should add two to the score. [Issue#9, p.56]
    • Total PC Gaming
    • 65 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Only casual types will enjoy up to its conclusion. [Issue#28, p.54]
    • Total PC Gaming
    • 65 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    A great idea with some impressive physics, but soon becomes a chore.
    • 64 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    An interesting story, but the overall package isn't engaging enough. [Issue#20, p.56]
    • Total PC Gaming
    • 64 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    An under-egged effort even more compromised by a token PC port. [Issue#17, p.69]
    • 64 Metascore
    • 40 Critic Score
    No multiplayer, brief campaigns, same old factions and anemic AI.
    • 64 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Brings some innovations to the genre, but loses some strategic hear to become more accessible. [Issue#31, p.40]
    • Total PC Gaming
    • 63 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    NecroVisioN falls short of its own self-imposed mark, to rekindle the old-school shooter experience, but that was a particularly high bar to reach. So if you fancy a simple run-and-gun experience with a few twists, you’ll get your money’s worth.
    • 63 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Violence is of an unsightly and masochistic flavour and nothing here is a patch on the king of the genre.
    • 63 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    There's a lot of superior competition around, but there's plenty on offer here. [Issue#13, p.64]
