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

In almost all respects, Fallout 3 is a staggering, genre-defining achievement - marrying an utterly immersive world, memorable characters, incredible production values, some of the most inspired RPG mechanics ever devised and so much heart. It might not steamroll the epic "Oblivion" in the manner we all hoped, but maybe that was simply asking too much. Instead, Fallout 3 stands as the perfect companion piece - a near unparalleled RPG that stands so far ahead of the majority of the games on 360 that it would be a crime against gaming not to laud this title as anything other than a masterpiece.

A sorry excuse for a 360 title. [Apr 2009, p.92]

A slick and well-presented game that entertains without alienating hardcore bikers. [Christmas 2008, p.77]

An essential rhythm action game. [Jan 2009, p.80]

A flawless two hours of fun, made all the better by the extra challenge stages. [Jan 2009, p.102]

A rollicking good adventure. [Christmas 2008, p.56]

By yanking the dragon's latest into adolescence, both kids and adults will be disappointed. [Jan 2009, p.75]

Tether the choreography to controls and you'd be on to something. [Jan 2009, p.78]

Far Cry 2 is a resounding success. It looks incredible, and the attention to detail is staggering. All it really needed was the added spart and thrill of a really, really good shooter underneath it all. But if you can live with the game's start/stop gunplay you're going to have some real fun playing with fire. [Jan 2009, p.78]

Not pretty, but smart as a whip, and constantly quick and accessible. [Christmas 2008, p.74]

A dull, expensive experience, but it's faithful to the board game, at least. Yawn. [Jan 2009, p.70]

Just don't bother playing alone. [Christmas 2008, p.94]

Rock Revolution is ruined by its painful visual style, and is nearly unplayable on the higher difficulties. [June 2009, p.83]

It takes the "worst game on Live" title from "Rocky and Bullwinkle", by some margin. [Jan 2009, p.104]

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

So, turns out there's room in this world for both GTA IV and Saints Row 2, then. Truly, they are utterly opposite sides of the same sandbox coin. If you were in any way disappointed with Rockstar's return with Liberty City then we have absolutely no hesitation in recommending you buy this.

The very fact that we wish Dead Space included more of its original features and less content pulled from the last generation's greatest game speaks volumes for the quality on show. [Issue # 71]

Entertaining, ultra violent American sports without a great deal of depth. [Christmas 2008, p.73]

Rather than simulate a playground game we never played in the UK anyway, pay the extra and import the brilliant "MLB 2K8." [Jan 2009, p.104]

An idea too small to sustain an entire game. [Jan 2009, p.104]

Its well made and has some clever ideas...but still a very average shooter. [Christmas 2008, p.82]

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

A fun-packed playable cartoon. [Jan 2009, p.74]

Impressive basketball sim that manages to be instantly accessible. [Christmas 2008, p.76]

Speedy shooter much in common with cack like "Outrigger." Get your mech fix elsewhere. [Christmas 2008, p.94]

Too hard to be fun, too mean not to frustrate, but challenging enough to be rewarding. [Christmas 2008, p.92]

An okay-looking action game. [Apr 2009, p.90]
