Horrible tutorials. [Issue#55, p.92]

Competent, if a little aged, but also an excellent sedative. [Issue#87, p.85]

A disappointing shooter that has a few good ideas but can't implement them well enough to make it stand out from a very large crowd. [Issue#114, p.79]

It's still got a long way to go, but Shred is a step in the right direction. [Issue#66, p.91]

Techland has overlooked the fundamentals. A shoddy, albeit lightning-fast, racer. [Issue#87, p.88]

A cynical package that doesn't do the Star Wars franchise any justice whatsoever. [Issue#85, p.92]

Put simply, it works exactly how you'd expect a tech demo for touch screen to work when the touch screen's taken away. [Issue#39]

Not taking full advantage of Kinect is unforgivable. [Issue#118, p.81]

A depressingly mundane FPS, never once striving for greatness and seemingly happy to settle for faceless mediocrity. Another letdown when we hoped for so much more. [Apr 2008, p.86]

Paris shows some promise, but it's hard to enjoy a game when it's so nauseating, even if it does suggest a return to the series' best ideas. Maybe next year. [Issue#119, p.65]

You'd have to love F.E.A.R. in a way that blinds you to the cynical but no doubt cost-effective repetition on offer here. Not worthy of a full release. [Issue 27, p.94]

You're better off looking elsewhere. [Issue#53, p.105]

As kids’ games go this is a step in the right direction but too many of the old problems raise their ugly head, not that the kids will notice mind you.

Somehow better with a second overpowered character by your side. [Issue#63, p.88]

Definitely greater than the some of its parts, which is annoying as it’s technically so flawed and without effort. You’ve still got to be a fan, though.

A decent distraction for a short time, Costume Quest 2 unfortunately soon becomes a chore. Fortunately, it doesn't outstay its welcome by too much. [Issue#119, p.82]

This is clearly for fans of the television creation. [Issue#77, p.103]

The vertical scrolling and relentless shooting become tired and boring very quickly. [Issue#35, p.114]

The insane difficulty feels like a horrible joke. [Issue#63, p.102]

Pretty dull. [Issue#60, p.107]

Fantastic production values and a great concept let down by a lack of checkpoints, dull art direction and horribly repetitive, shallow gameplay. What a shamefully wasted opportunity. [Issue # 11, p.88]

Well-designed maps, and new weapons down in a sea of technical problems, for which there seems to be no solution. [Issue#112, p.95]

It's not disastrous, but it is bland. [Issue#121, p.87]

It's very much let down by repetitive play. [Issue#78, p.85]

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.

Aficionados will want to stay well clear. [Issue#78, p.86]

It's just a shame that the left analogue stick is no substitution for the original arcade trackball. [Issue#24, p.101]

The tracks are fantastic, but the bare bones package is upsetting. If this had been DLC we’d be all over it, but as it stands, it falls quite short of expectations.
