    BioSchock is amazing. Not only are its visuals, music, sound, gameplay and plot superb, but it's highly polished and runs beautifully on the 360 without any noticeable drop in frame rate. [Issue 23, p.70]

    It's certainly not seven quid more entertaining than what came before. [Issue#25, p.119]

    A clear improvement over last year's effort. [Issue#24, p.83]

    For three quid, though, you could do a lot worse. [Issue#25, p.118]

    Word. [Issue#25, p.118]

    Its use will result in two separate emotions - boredom and a desire to play something else. [Issue#25, p.118]

    Rubbish. [Issue#24, p.101]

    Insanely hard. [Issue#24, p.101]

    Enough of the old charm shines through for the eight online or local players to have a blast. [Issue#24, p.100]

    Something about playing Yie Ar Kung Fu makes us feel all warm and fuzzy inside. [Issue#24, p.101]

    • 68 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    There's online co-op available too, but, unlike Sonic's outing, we feel it would be hard pushed to attract many beyond-nostalgia hunters. [Issue#24, p.100]

    • 77 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    This is platform bliss, pure and simple. [Issue#24, p.100]

    • 63 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    It's just a shame that the left analogue stick is no substitution for the original arcade trackball. [Issue#24, p.101]
    • X-ONE Magazine UK
    • 38 Metascore
    • 30 Critic Score
    Virtually nothing works as it should, and what does owes an enormous debt to a few evergreen classics. Disappointing. [Issue 23, p.79]

    • 79 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    The complexity of it all stinks up the mix. [Issue#23, p.98]

    Not for fans of videogames. [Issue 23, p.78]

    Overlord is charming, satisfying and pure evil all at the same time. In a good way, of course. [July 2007, p.87]

    • 90 Critic Score
    The Darkness delivers on every level. A great FPS with a captivating atmosphere, it boasts intriguing characters, an intense plot and has a heap of depth to boot. It's undeniably impressive. [Issue 21, p.76]
    • X-ONE Magazine UK
    • 37 Metascore

    Hilariously bad. [Issue #22, p.82]

    As a game though, it's far too uninspiring. [Issue #22, p.88]

    • 68 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    As far as strategy goes, it's pretty simplistic stuff. [Issue#23, p.98]

    • 70 Critic Score
    Not quite enough variety twinned with not quite enough freedom leaves DIRT as merely a snack between Gothams and Forzas. But then we all eat badly, once in a while. [Issue 21, p.82]

    • 45 Metascore
    • 30 Critic Score
    As cynical as it is terrible, this pushes "Fuzion Frenzy 2" hard for the title of worst game on the Xbox 360 to date. [Issue #22, p.89]

    • 82 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    There's never been a better time to sample one of the greats. Fact. [Issue#23, p.98]

    That price tag is the modern-day equivalent of hari-kiri, minus the blood and honour. Which is a real shame because, given how much fun Monster Madness proves to be when four of you are carving up critters, it deserves so much better. An extra mark when the price drops. [Issue 19, p.84]

    Appalling AI. [Issue #22, p.86]

    Filing stuff. [Issue#23, p.98]
