Without the Ferrari license, Test Drive's latest does the bare minimum that a racing game should do, but it still gives you access to some stunning cars and fun races. [Issue#88, p.79]

A very solid performance. [Issue#88, p.78]

If you were looking for something a little more evolved, you'll come away disappointed. [Issue#88, p.76]

Vast, sprawling, beautiful and infinitely playable, Darksiders II is the biggest and best surprise of 2012. So far. It will fill all the time between now and other big hitters. [Issue#88, p.26]

A short-lived blast that doesn't quite get to grips with Microsoft's Kinect sensor. [Issue#87, p.89]

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

Though you might think Kinect would be the perfect fit for its staccato gameplay, it ultimately makes things even more frustrating. [Issue#87, p.87]

It's not quite as good as we thought. [Issue#87, p.87]

Even if you're a fan of the TV series, the dullness just isn't worth it. [Issue#87, p.86]

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

It's what the original always should have been. [Issue#87, p.84]

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

Never before has a game's potential been squandered so much just because the hardware was unable to keep up with the vision. [Issue#87, p.80]

A radical evolution of the franchise. [Issue#87, p.78]

A decent tactical shooter, but the campaign is too short and too average to provide anything more than a weekend's distraction. [Issue#87, p.76]

There's no denying the rodent's getting a little arthritic in his old age. [Issue#86, p.103]

A dark and serious take on an otherwise oversaturated genre. [Issue#86, p.102]

Vaguely enjoyable. [Issue#86, p.101]

A good-looking but boring button masher that should be avoided. [Issue#86, p.100]

A masterful piece of contemporary game design and a richly rewarding experience suitable for all ages. [Issue#86, p.98]

A shooter that's about as "meh" as you can get. [Issue#86, p.87]

This is more of the score attack goodness that Cave does best. [Issue#86, p.86]

A fun and frantic throwback to the days when dirty tactics, outlandish manoeuvres and sheet aggression were the brutal, mangled order of the day. [Issue#86, p.84]

A fantastic shooter that does a lot for the genre. [Issue#86, p.80]

The sharp thrill of a successful synchronised takedown never loses its edge. [Issue#86, p.76]

A definitive digital proxy. [Issue#85, p.105]

At two hours, it's pretty short. [Issue#85, p.104]

A great range of moves and some pleasantly diverse characters. [Issue#85, p.103]
