    We appreciate that mini-games must be simple and intuitive, but that doesn't mean they can't be imaginative, or hide subtle depths and plenty of replayability, or at least pretend they're doing something exciting. Party Animals does none of these.

    In a genre overlaoded with turds this one floats to somewhere near the top of the pile. [June 2011, p.98]

    Ambitious but flimsy, and on 360 it lacks the one Tiger-beating weapon in its arsenal. [Issue#98, p.90]

    Another 'classic' Sega franchise turns to bum gravy. Sonic, eat your heart out. [Jan 2009, p.67]

    Enjoyable nothingness. [May 2011, p.99]

    Fancy time with Scofield, Sucre, Abruzzi and co? Buy the first season on DVD; it's much more fun.

    It's a shame, as what initially looked promising all those months ago when we first saw it, is in fact one of the worst games on Live Arcade. Avoid.

    A dull, dreary game. [Dec 2009, p.88]

    Great music, but this is prime DLC material and definitely not worth 30 quid. [Mar 2009, p.82]

    Not the best, but Fatal Conspiracy is better than its individual parts would have you believe. [Jan 2011, p.82]

    Technically woeful by-the-numbers tot with a few perversely enjoyable bits. [Jan 2010, p.79]

    The addition of online co-op and Deathmatch modes maybe elevates Monster Madness above the bottom tier of Live Arcade titles, but at full price there will probably be so few people playing that it's unlikely to be a vibrant online community.

    It's Family Game Night with just one (dull) game. [Feb 2011, p.108]

    A juvenile wishlist of swords, guns, girls and gore - really not much cop a game. [May 2009, p.42]

    Laughable. [Feb 2008, p.85]

    Cheap or not, this has nothing to recommend it, bar morbid curiosity. [Jan 2008, p.83]

    A questionable franchise makes for an awkward game. It's not terrible, just utterly miserable. [Issue#98, p.105]

    Who needs more than one Kinect dance game? Answer: not us, and not you. [Jan 2011]

    A mildly entertaining fantasy yarn tragically coded by a team without any 360 experience. [May 2010, p.102]

    • 62 Metascore
    • 41 Critic Score
    No more than a tech demo for the next game - "Smackdown 2009" preview code is twice the game this is. [Dec 2008, p.90]

    An RPG needs to entertain for hours, to fully immerse you in its universe and not let go, but Two Worlds starts to show cracks before the tutorial is over. It's a -10 for execution, with no chance of a saving throw. [Nov 2007, p.76]
    • Xbox World 360 Magazine UK
    • 71 Metascore
    • 41 Critic Score
    A good concept ruined by clunky mechanics and a poor progression system. On a par with Midway's "TNA Impact." [June 2009, p.80]

    Short and forgettable. [Aug 2009, p.82]
