It's just finally captured the skill and fortitude that comes with playing a real game of tennis, an achievement we sense it's always been working towards. [Issue#34, p.90]

It’s a tenner cheaper than C&C 3 (good on yer EA) on account of the fact that it didn’t cost as much to make, being an extension of the first game. If you liked C&C 3, Kane’s Wrath comes highly recommended.

Supreme Commander could have been great, but the wait for the console translation leaves an overriding sense of disappointment. Plus the technical flaws leave it almost unplayable.

A soothing distraction. [Issue#34, p.116]

It's a novel concept but lack of control variation, plus the obvious graphical deficiencies, make it a dulled thrill. [Issue#36, p.114]

This is about as fun as chiselling 'hate' into your other eye, and completing a set. [Issue#36, p.114]

Definitely worth your time if your'e a boxing fan, but not quite the game to wrestle away "Fight Night's" crown. [Issue#35, p.96]

It’s not that Burst Limit is a bad game, it’s just painfully average. [Issue#34, p.96]

Bizarrely this Hulk game isn’t as much fun as Hulk: Ultimate Destruction, and it wasn’t exactly brilliant anyway. You’re best off just watching the film and leaving this alone.

At least you don't use the right analogue stick to aim. [Issue#36, p.114]

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

A fast and entertaining take on the most exhilarating spy movies in decades. The Bourne Conspiracy eventually begins to slip into repetition, but you’ll be having far too much fun to care.

Beyond being easier and ‘more accessible’ Ninja Gaiden hasn’t really evolved these last few years. Not the game we had hoped for. [Issue#34]

Flashbacks make this a thrilling racer, but they wear thin after a while and take their toll on the racing. As a result, we love Race Driver: GRID as much as we hate it, which is quite a lot! [Issue#33]

Easily the best children's title of the year. [Issue#36, p.7]

There’s so much to like here and so much to hate that it’s just a matter of personal preference. We like it, we don’t love it, but we also know there’s plenty of folk out there who definitely will. [Issue#33]

It's just dull and not really what your console was created for. [Issue#34, p.117]

Shame there's no paddle, though. [Issue#36, p.114]

Enemy Territory: Quake Wars tries to inject something new and interesting into a popular genre but completely forgets to fix the things which really do need work. [Issue#33]

It's the same game as before, but better. Lost Planet isn't perfect, but it looks good and is certainly different from the other third-person shooters out there. [Issue#34, p.97]

The humour is as good as anything you'll see on their website. [Issue#35, p.115]

Be A Pro's sideshow trumps the main event, which itself is largely unchanged. [Issue#32, p.86]

Two-player drop-in co-op plus some fun and undemanding levels. The kids will love this and adults could easily kill an hour or so. [Issue#36, p.96]

This game is so rammed full of air-punching testosterone and screen-shaking explosions we're surprised it wasn't developed by Sylvester Stallone. [Issue#34, p.117]

If the answer to "who considers themselves up for a quiz?" is you, check this out. [Issue#34, p.116]

He's rubbish at flying and all his weapons are completely unbalanced. [Issue#33, p.92]

A fantastic, life-affirming piece of software that has set a new standard for what the medium can achieve, with a magnificent multiplayer mode to boot. If all games were this good, no one would ever leave the house. [Issue#33, p.84]

Put simply, there are deeper tactical outings, more sociable games of skill, and many Live Arcade titles more enjoyable than this. Go and buy one of htose instead. [Issue#34, p.116]
