A few pleasant additions to the tried and tested formula but DW7 isn't searching for new fans. [June 2011, p.94]

A lightweight gimmicky kids' game made completely verboten due to messy controls. [Sept 2011, p.93]

A conversation so watered down it's hard to find where the good game has gone. [June 2008, p.96]

Alienates gamers to appease the fans and ends up impressing neither party. [Jan 2010, p.75]

A shooter with all the usual pieces but none of the smarts needed to entertain.

A good combo which works well, but the elements are already fun enough without muddying the waters. [July 2008, p.96]

A thoroughly average change of pace. [Sept 2008, p.97]

Tedious, restrictive puzzler which happens to be beautiful and made by Darth Vader's dad. [Christmas 2009, p.120]

Good humour, good looks and great audio, wrapped around an average game. [June 2009, p.95]

Some board games translate well. This doesn't. [Aug 2008, p.99]

Suffers from being in a big sea of similar titles. [Jan 2011]

Not terrible, but largely without merit. [Jan 2011]

Another fitness game with added 'Spicey' goodness. [Jan 2011]

Ponderous and lightweight racing atop near-vaporous water. Go and have a bath instead. [Oct 2010, p.121]

Episode one was weak; episode two clearly didn't notice. Who botches the Watchmen? [Nov 2009, p.105]

A blast from the past that should have stayed unblasted. Play the free version if you must. [Nov 2007, p.94]

A license squandered on a game which would have been no different with the Trek taken out. [Aug 2009, p.103]

If you've played Feeding Frenzy, you'll be okay doing without the sequel. [Christmas 2008, p.94]

Four modes, 18 different ships, loads of weapons and power-ups, none of it especially enjoyable. [Sept 2007, p.96]

Swag aside, there's nothing in this reductionist hotchpotch for fans of what Fallout 3 does so well. [Apr 2009, p.103]

How a game which looks like this can have a framerate like THAT is beyond us. Knock yourself out, though. [Apr 2008, p.96]

Too much Ball Z and not enough brawl. If you know what we're Saiyan. [Aug 2008, p.85]

Well-made and well-presented, but there's not nearly 1,200 points worth of game in there. [Jan 2009, p.104]

A good game in its original form, but a port so shoddy can't be encouraged. [June 2009, p.95]

Thoroughly unambitious. [June 2008, p.96]

This pedestrian offering is a little too sterile, a little too similar, a little too short yet somehow a little too long. [Aug 2008, p.99]

You'll need to be a serious American football/robot fan to get stuck in now. [Dec 2007, p.96]

Time hasn't been kind to Quake Arena. [March 2011, p.118]
