    Ultimately though, when you start to crave any given section of the game to end just because you're so utterly bored of it, when you're hacking your way through another swarm of metal enemies utterly identical to those you fought in the last twelve (almost) identical rooms, you're inevitably going to start to feel like there's something not quite right with Too Human. And you'd be right.

    Lacks the epic feel and skills of "NHL 09" but does offer lots of goals. [Christmas 2008, p.62]

    • 70 Metascore
    • 68 Critic Score
    An okay-looking action game. [Apr 2009, p.90]
    • Xbox World 360 Magazine UK
    • 82 Metascore
    • 68 Critic Score
    Promises much but proves to be a limited, lacklustre take on the RTS. [Apr 2009, p.77]

    • 65 Metascore
    • 68 Critic Score
    It's yet another game in which the mind-numbing clichés of platformers haven't been challenged, but embraced, oh-so-ironically.
    • 76 Metascore
    • 67 Critic Score
    Good skins, though. [Feb 2010, p.87]

    • 76 Metascore
    • 67 Critic Score
    Stiff controls and samey puzzles hamper what is otherwise a fun, enjoyable romp.
    • 68 Metascore
    • 67 Critic Score
    A step forward for the Potter series, but still a country mile behind the next big guns. [Sept 2007, p.74]

    • 58 Metascore
    • 67 Critic Score
    A charming gameworld. [July 2010, p.92]
    • Xbox World 360 Magazine UK
    • 64 Metascore
    • 67 Critic Score
    Decent but hackneyed hack-and-slashery, and still a way off feeling comfortable on Xbox.

    Despite our reservations about the plot, we had an entertaining time with Velvet Assassin. It never hits the highs of the average Hitman mission, but the game's palpable atmosphere, and solid sneaking mechanics, should satisfy anyone suffering from stealth-deprivation - and help keep your mind off the agonising wait until Agent 47, Sam Fisher and Garrett finally emerge from the gloom.
    • 69 Metascore
    • 67 Critic Score
    A by-the-numbers JRPG punching above its weight thanks to decent borrowed ideas. [Christmas 2009, p.85]
    • Xbox World 360 Magazine UK
    • 63 Metascore
    • 66 Critic Score
    Its well made and has some clever ideas...but still a very average shooter. [Christmas 2008, p.82]
    • Xbox World 360 Magazine UK
    • 71 Metascore
    • 66 Critic Score
    Inadequate next to EA's title. [Jan 2008, p.79]

    • 82 Metascore
    • 66 Critic Score
    Too much streamlining has blunted FFXIII's hooks. This isn't epic, it's arduous. [May 2010, p.67]
    • Xbox World 360 Magazine UK
    • 69 Metascore
    • 66 Critic Score
    It's a smarter, more tactical shooter than most, but not worthy of the Flashpoint name. [July 2011, p.94]
    • Xbox World 360 Magazine UK
    • 63 Metascore
    • 66 Critic Score
    A by-the-numbers sequel elevated to almost-play status by its terrific multiplayer. [Nov 2010, p.97]
    • Xbox World 360 Magazine UK
    • 80 Metascore
    • 66 Critic Score
    A so-so game on an engine so old it's literally powered by steam. [Christmas 2009, p.92]
    • Xbox World 360 Magazine UK
    • 72 Metascore
    • 66 Critic Score
    Marginally superior to the original but too many rough edges remain. [Nov 2007, p.85]
    • Xbox World 360 Magazine UK
    • 60 Metascore
    • 65 Critic Score
    A competent knock-off of Arkham Asylum which stands head and shoulders above Sega's other Marvel tie-ins. [Nov 2011, p.107]
    • Xbox World 360 Magazine UK
    • 59 Metascore
    • 65 Critic Score
    An enjoyable run through the film's events, but it's barely a game in places. [May 2008, p.89]
    • Xbox World 360 Magazine UK
    • 51 Metascore
    • 65 Critic Score
    There's nothing broken here, but combat lacks flair and strategy is insignificant. [Jan 2008, p.68]
    • Xbox World 360 Magazine UK
    • 67 Metascore
    • 65 Critic Score
    At 35 quid this is pretty good value for money - even if it does star the worst character in videogames. [July 2007, p.97]
    • Xbox World 360 Magazine UK
    • 56 Metascore
    • 65 Critic Score
    Too expensive, but find a cheap copy and it has a bit of fun to offer stealth fans.
    • 65 Metascore
    • 65 Critic Score
    An average game made all the worse for having come from a superb team. A letdown. [Jan 2008, p.64]
    • Xbox World 360 Magazine UK
    • 72 Metascore
    • 65 Critic Score
    Lacks the punch or variety to be a serious contender in the crowded shooter genre. [May 2008, p.86]
    • Xbox World 360 Magazine UK
    • 65 Metascore
    • 65 Critic Score
    It's sort of like reinventing the wheel, only to realise you were making a boat. [May 2009, p.65]
    • Xbox World 360 Magazine UK
    • 62 Metascore
    • 65 Critic Score
    Not outrageous enough to mark itself out as a must-have arcade WWII flight game. [Dec 2009, p.82]
    • Xbox World 360 Magazine UK
    • 47 Metascore
    • 65 Critic Score
    Switch off your critical faculties and there's a decent enough weekend rental here. [Issue#98, p.104]
    • Xbox World 360 Magazine UK
    • 67 Metascore
    • 65 Critic Score
    Quite easily the best not-very-good game we've played in a while. [July 2010, p.96]
