    A bit more imagination would have been preferable, but you're more than getting your money's worth. [Issue#80, p.85]

    Lacks the replayability of its predecessor. [Issue 28, p.118]

    A distant yet thoroughly tangible sense of being "the man." [Issue#61, p.105]

    Apart from the customisation, the wild choice of races, the territory slant and the team-mates, this is bloody good fun. Everyone from casual racers to hardcore petrolheads should try it. [Issue 13, p.86]

    Another lovely instalment to Telltale's noir thriller, though cracks in the studio's model and/or ambition are starting to show. [Issue#111, p.80]

    Strangely it’s not the voice recognition that limits EndWar but the RTS and tactical choices that are overlooked. The single-player is left wanting in favour of a strong multiplayer.

    • 70 Critic Score
    In terms of gameplay, this is verging on the depressingly average. [Issue#58, p.88]

    Little has changed. [Issue#79, p.87]

    Certainly not a bad game but this is very much a last-gen title, with a few bells and whistles tacked on. [Issue 13, p.92]

    The first real Kinect classic. [Issue#78, p.85]

    • 50 Critic Score
    We're so incensed with yet another Xbox Live Arcade game using "Robotron"-style controls. [Issue 17, p.116]

    • 77 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Quite spectacularly varied, though not necessarily all that inventive, The Adventures of Shuggy excels as a brain-teasing platformer almost in spite of its sadistic design. [Issue#75, p.100]

    If you've got the original, keep your virtual wallet firmly shut. If you haven't, just buy the original Uno. [Issue#46, p.101]

    • 77 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    This year's effort comprises a lot of recycled, poorly implemented and buggy content, some of which is locked behind a pay-to-bypass grind wall. You can't charge 50 quid for that. [Issue#97, p.68]

    It’s great to see a developer building on its original game with such love and care. One of our favourite shooters in living memory.
    • 77 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    The fighting is surprisingly fun and insanely deep - this is not a game to be taken lightly. [Issue#49, p.103]

    It's simply a bit of fun. [Issue#91, p.77]

    An oddity with rare charm. [Issue#70, p.87]

    Endearing and satisfying. [Issue#107, p.70]
    • 77 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    A bit boring to play online. [Issue#71, p.101]
    • X-ONE Magazine UK
    • 77 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Fun in short bursts, but ultimately lacking in polish, balance and a clear idea of what it even is in the first place. [Issue#83, p.80]
    • X-ONE Magazine UK
    • 77 Metascore

    Beware the temperamental difficulty. [Issue#84, p.83]

    Hard is cool these days, but Volgarr simply isn't all that much fun. [Issue#119, p.73]

    • 76 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    That isn't to say that ITSP isn't brilliantly designed or fun, but it eventually suffers from lacking an incentive to tackle its puzzles. [Issue#76, p.103]

    Being enormous fans of the Crysis series to this point, we came at this wanting to love it. But repetitive scenarios and a lack of challenge steadily dried our fan shorts. [May 2013, p.81]

    D4 has some problems, but it’s absolutely worth a play if you’re after a game unlike anything else on the Xbox One. Bloody crazy, but charming as well.
    • 76 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    A festival of both passing and movement, which is probably appreciated best by fans of the series. Pro Evo just - and we mean just - manages to trump "FIFA." [Issue 26, p.80]

    • 76 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    A great license but a hugely impressive game. War For Cybertron is best avoided by shooter fans and serious gamers - it's casual gaming through-and-through. [Issue#61, p.90]
    • X-ONE Magazine UK
    • 76 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    This core mechanic proves sound. [Issue#67, p.101]
    • X-ONE Magazine UK
    • 76 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    A decent tactical shooter, but the campaign is too short and too average to provide anything more than a weekend's distraction. [Issue#87, p.76]
