Foibles aside, Enslaved is an engaging fusion of genres with a flair for characterisation. [Issue#64, p.92]

Successfully combines elements of both franchises in an imaginative, fun and impressive fighting game. [Issue#83, p.76]

Far Cry 3 has strong, albeit a little forced, RPG elements. And during its better moments it feels more like Skyrim than it does a typical FPS.

It's the most accurate home port yet. [Issue#80, p.102]

It has enough cutesy charm to just about justify the admission price. [Issue#34, p.117]

Nowhere near as much fun or as addictive as the competition. [Issue#52, p.104]

It manages to overcome its linearity problems in some imaginative ways and is well worth your time. [Issue#83, p.84]

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]

It should have been released months before "Soulcalibur IV" comes out, not the Wednesday before. [Issue#35, p.114]

While its ambitious ideas fall by the wayside, the core act of shooting robots is done better than we dared to hope. [Issue#83, p.87]

Feels like the game we worried that Brotherhood would be. [Issue#79, p.60]

In its own ragged way, Alpha Protocol takes a more sophisticated approach to its plot than Mass Effect or Dragon Age. [Issue#60, p.88]

Galaga has varied enemies, a cute double ship trick, as well as tough bonus stages that are nearly impossible to get perfect for (Hello Achievements!). [Issue 9, p.106]

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]

This is easily the best Call of Duty campaign in quite some time. [Issue#79, p.68]

What is there is so compelling that the lack of additional stages can't help but feel like a disappointment. The game's strengths are a double-edged sword. Regardless, this is still one of the best games of this year. With a bit of work, a potential sequel could be one of the best games of any year.

Still brilliant, but the amount that’s gone in to please noobs is grossly disproportionate to that which aims to please fans. Nonetheless, Tiger keeps up his impressive run.

True, the content available on Xbox Live continues to improve, but even with the spate of excellent titles to hit the service over the last year or two, there are very few as good as Hell Yeah! Wrath Of The Dead Rabbit.

Another gem on XBLA. [Issue#83, p.103]

Superb. [Issue#56, p.105]

A great combination of genres that manages to really tax your brain, be great fun and work as a competitive and addictive multiplayer game. Not so great for solo players, though. [Issue#83, p.104]

Blood Money manages to strike a perfect balance between compelling and complex. While not the 'next-gen' experience we expected, it certainly delivers in terms of pure enjoyment. [Issue 7, p.84]

Pure takes racing all the way back to basics and emphasizes fun over complexity yet still incorporates enough depth to have some serious longevity. Excellent stuff. [Issue#37, p.86]

A slow start soon gives way to some exciting action. [Issue#5, p.90]

A fine blaster. [Issue#23, p.97]

There's so much going for Darksiders that it deserves to be played by many. [Issue#55, p.90]

Flawed in single-player but exceptional fun with three friends. [Issue#59, p.88]

The single-player mode is fantastic and more fun than licking honey off Scrubs' Sarah Chalke. [Issue 18, p.116]
