    • 60 Critic Score
    Although it's undeniably fun, the gameplay hasn't aged that well and after 30 minutes or so your eyelids will start to get heavy and fatigue sets in. [Issue#40, p.114]
    • X-ONE Magazine UK
    • 64 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    It's just so uninspired in so many ways. [Issue#77, p.101]
    • X-ONE Magazine UK
    • 60 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    The experience is so short-lived and lacking in replayability that it's a hard sell. [Nov 2009, p.104]
    • X-ONE Magazine UK
    • 79 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    The complexity of it all stinks up the mix. [Issue#23, p.98]

    "Marble Madness" with cannons. [Issue 28, p.118]
    • X-ONE Magazine UK
    • 61 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    The game’s fun for a while, but quickly loses any sense of direction. As such, it provides little more than a cursory distraction for all but the most obsessive high-score chasers.
    • 60 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Warface is exactly like every other war-based shooter you can think of. [Issue#112, p.80]
    • X-ONE Magazine UK
    • 69 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Wet
    Its gameplay just isn't tight enough for the acrobatic combat to consistently deliver the thrills it otherwise could. [Issue#51, p.86]
    • X-ONE Magazine UK
    • 56 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Hack, slash, hit and miss. [Issue#112, p.82]
    • X-ONE Magazine UK
    • 75 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    A steep learning curve and a complex play style stop it from succeeding. [Issue#53, p.90]
    • X-ONE Magazine UK
    • 73 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Too little's been spent on making Katamari feel at home on 360, and that makes us sad. [Issue#30, p.90]
    • X-ONE Magazine UK
    • 61 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    It has a number of undemanding, unwieldy and confusing design choices that make the experience incredibly forgettable. Fun for an hour. [Issue#54, p.82]
    • X-ONE Magazine UK
    • 59 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    If you need a version of Tetris on your Xbox One, this game provides for most of your needs, albeit with little finesse. [Issue#121, p.86]
    • X-ONE Magazine UK
    • 79 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Don't expect the same longevity from Monday Night Combat as you would a game in a similar vein from Valve or Epic. [Issue#63, p.103]
    • X-ONE Magazine UK
    • 70 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    A fun novelty. [Issue#78, p.86]
    • X-ONE Magazine UK
    • 79 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Clearly an inferior product to Kinectimals. [Issue#78, p.88]

    • 76 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    The vehicle sections really drag this latest Skylanders down. It's a disappointing addition to the series. [Issue#130, p.77]
    • X-ONE Magazine UK
    • 55 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Falls short of grand slam quality. [Issue#35, p.94]
    • X-ONE Magazine UK
    • 62 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    It lacks the tight, focused gameplay of something like "Geometry Wars," but it's entertaining enough. [Issue#42, p.112]
    • X-ONE Magazine UK
    • 77 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Lacks the replayability of its predecessor. [Issue 28, p.118]
    • X-ONE Magazine UK
    • 63 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Although fun at first, SBK holds longer lasting appeal for Superbike fans that want to customise, tweak and ride their way to winning the World Championship. [Issue#35, p.95]
    • X-ONE Magazine UK
    • 78 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Prototype is a dumb, irritating but gratuitous toy. It appeals to the 14-year-old within all of us, but we really deserve something more mature to play at this point.
    • 65 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Too Human is by no means a bad videogame, it’s just very repetitive and highly disappointing. With ten years development time, you’d think it would be a bit more impressive than this.
    • 70 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    If you're patient and able to get your head around a challenging set of rules, there's fun to be had with Blood Bowl 2. Otherwise, it's one that's only going to appeal when you're in the right mood. [Issue#130, p.84]
    • X-ONE Magazine UK
    • 62 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Blood Stone shows promise that is never really capitalised on. [Issue#66, p.85]
    • X-ONE Magazine UK
    • 55 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    The story is as epic as it ever was, but the gameplay is uninspired. [May 2013, p.86]
    • X-ONE Magazine UK
    • 61 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Perfectly technically sound. [Issue#61, p.104]
    • X-ONE Magazine UK
    • 67 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    It's horribly dated. [Issue#78, p.98]
    • X-ONE Magazine UK
    • 79 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Gimmicks aside, it's a very short and linear adventure that you'll probably only play through once unless you're an Achievements whore. But then...we had such fun playing it. [Issue 9, p.74]
    • X-ONE Magazine UK
    • 66 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Download it, but keep your expectations somewhat calm. [Issue#78, p.100]
