    It's literally just a case of run in, kill a bunch of things and find the exit. [Issue#116, p.76]

    • 70 Critic Score
    Graphically not as impressive as we would have liked and really not all that different from what we’ve played before. Still solid, but uninspiring.

    Not even the warm blanket of nostalgia provided by robots with Dreamcast backpacks and VMU save icons can save it from "dedicated fans only' territory. [Issue#47, p.101]

    Despite the irritating 'cute' dialogue, the script is super funny, while the presentation is sweet enough and the platforming is still very playable. [Issue#47, p.100]

    It still feels clunky in places. [Issue#117, p.74]

    The focus on repetition means while it's great for kids, adults are likely to lose interest. [Issue#79, p.83]

    This is easily the most accessible title in the 360's library, and anyone with even the slightest interest in the movie world will find themselves hooked. [Issue 27, p.93]

    Starts off brilliantly but, like a loose thread, it begins to slowly unravel until you're left with just another God Of War clone. [Issue #56, p.78]

    Better than expected, but we weren't expecting much. With some tightening, Pro Evo vs. Fifa could be close next year. [Issue 13, p.91]

    Too little's been spent on making Katamari feel at home on 360, and that makes us sad. [Issue#30, p.90]

    What's really impressive is how well this little world, its narrative and your powers seem to organically come together. [Issue#83, p.103]

    It's every bit as stupid, chaotic, flawed and brilliant as it sounds.

    A charming game and, while not that deep, a pleasant surprise if you're just looking for engaging casual fun or are a very casual player open to some deeper gameplay. [Issue#50, p.86]

    • 72 Metascore

    With some really innovative gameplay, exciting missions, fantastic set pieces, and the overall lack of competition, H.A.W.X. is probably the best game in its genre. [MC Issue#43, p.88]
    • 72 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Solid, and even better when enjoyed with company. [Issue#76, p.102]

    The beautiful wasteland is incredible to drive around, but leave the Magnum Opus and the excitement dips. This is nearly excellent, but instead is frustrating.

    There's little doubting the charm. [Issue#78, p.101]

    We're already crying for the many people that just aren't goign to get this brilliant blaster. [Issue#30, p.119]

    Just about adequate, but RACE Pro feels about five years old in places. It will certainly get buried beneath the existing pile of cracking 360 racing titles of all stripes and colours, and deservedly so.
    • 72 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Does what it sets out to do well and is an accessible game that budding strategiests will be able to comfortably jump into with both feet. [Issue#31, p.117]

    Standing just a little too still, which in the face of "Skate" ain't very good we're afraid. Though they cater for different markets, we know which one we'd rather be playing. [Issue 26, p.78]

    It's so colorful that it's likely to lure people of all ages in and keep them hooked. [Issue#29, p.120]

    Put aside your natural suspicion over a kids' game based on a Disney movie and you'll be pleasantly surprised. [Issue#75, p.81]

    Stay well away from this if you can't play in co-op. Even then, the best you'll find here is a game that is painfully average. [Issue#120, p.69]

    Highly addictive. [Issue#114, p.83]

    Mercenaries 2 doesn’t quite live up to all the good work done by the original and makes a bunch of new mistakes, but still proves entertaining enough to warrant a look.

    Only the most talented see the credits first time around. [Issue#59, p.104]
