    A worthy rental if you're in the Olympic mood but there's simply not enough here to warrant a full-price purchase. [Issue#56, p.91]

    The lack of challenge only adds to the boredom. In every way, Army Of Two: The Devil’s Cartel is an embarrassment to videogames...Not just boring, but exactly the kind of ‘violence for violence‘s sake’ dross the anti-videogame lobbyists dredge up at the arrival of each new atrocity.

    Okay in short bursts, but there's no reason to play single-player. A huge missed opportunity on EA's part and another year it won't be taking COD's crown. [Issue#92, p.78]

    Surprisingly charming overall, if a bit bland. [Issue#85, p.93]

    At 800 points, there are at least three or four puzzlers on Live that should definitely precede this. [Issue#30, p.120]

    Does Microsft not realise how insulting it is to release past free flash games as pay-to-download XBLA content? [Issue#37, p.116]

    Another Live Arcade offering that would be better replicated with pen and pad. [Issue#44, p.99]

    Not nearly brave or daring enough, though. [Issue#69, p.86]

    Rubbish, boring combat. [Issue 27, p.99]

    FaceBreaker is one of those typical EA test games which will no doubt be improved upon next time around but for now needs major improvements. It would help if it was like boxing, for a start.

    Some entertaining new challenges and excellent use of physics, but we simply can’t recommend it at this price, nor can we find justification for it.

    It's a joke that remains consistently funny, while still surprising in places. [Issue#124, p.84]

    To make matters worse, you can spin blocks once they hit the bottom of the well or other blocks, meaning that the skill is lessend further. [Issue 27, p.118]

    Obviously, if "Fable II" bores you to tears, steer clear, but if there's a chance you'll chase Molyneux's dream, by all means play on. [Issue#37, p.116]

    Too damn short. [Issue#99, p.78]

    Very pretty to look at and a lot of attention has been paid to female anatomy, but it has no substance whatsoever. [Issue 15, p.82]

    It's looking a bit on the tired side. Great music though. [Issue#25, p.118]

    A masterclass in how to make the absolute least of your own unique selling point. [Issue#87, p.82]

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

    There's a brave idea here in mixing two different mediums together, but the execution is lacking, particularly with the questionable Kinect controls. [Issue#120, p.86]

    Relatively amusing. [Issue#42, p.112]

    Caught somewhere between being a score attack shooter and one that tries to tell a story, Bodycount is left wandering the middle ground aimlessly. [Issue#77, p.88]

    A disappointing twin-stick shooter, a waste of the Halo brand and an embarrassing installment into the Xbox One launch window line-up. [Issue#108, p.74]

    A warm-hearted parody but pretty repetitive game, Eat Lead may sometimes be the victim of its own jokes, yet few titles have ever sent up our hobby in such a passionate and enjoyable way.
