    With solid platforming and tricky puzzles it's a long-awaited return to form for the Prince. [Aug 2010, p.92]

    They stopped making Shrek games. And we all lived happily ever after. The end. [Oct 2010, p.98]

    Has little reason to exist beyond nostalgia. [July 2010, p.121]

    We simply can't stress this enough; if you're planning to play this game on your lonesome, STAY AWAY; if you're all about the human co-op and the multiplayer modes go ahead and jump right in. This is undoubtedly some gamers' idea of blasting heaven; it just isn't quite ours.

    Definitely the best Skate effort yet - but more of an update than a truly worthy sequel. [July 2010, p.86]
    • Xbox World 360 Magazine UK
    • 46 Metascore
    • 20 Critic Score
    One of the best shooters of the mid-nineties, ruined spectacularly for the 21st Century. [Aug 2010, p.121]

    Several hours of unforgettable oddness. This is no Hollywood blockbuster, but we like it for that. [Aug 2010, p.120]

    • 41 Metascore
    • 27 Critic Score
    A car crash of a game, and yet another howler to add to the execrable Hollywood tie-in bin. [Aug 2010, p.27]

    • 68 Critic Score
    Comfortable in its saggy skin, and really quite good at what it does. A bargain bin gem. [July 2010, p.94]
    • 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]
    • Xbox World 360 Magazine UK
    • 91 Metascore
    • 95 Critic Score
    It's consistent, it's measurable, and it's the best fighting game ever - but now even more awesome.

    • 88 Critic Score
    A purer football game than FIFA 10 and the perfect companion to this year's World Cup. [June 2010, p.86]

    Surprisingly compelling fare. [Feb 2010, p.90]

    Popcorn arcade action that's far more exciting to watch than it is to play. [July 2010, p.120]
    • Xbox World 360 Magazine UK
    • 85 Metascore
    • 90 Critic Score
    Fast, brutal action that shines in single-player and co-op. A terrific series reboot. [June 2010, p.81]

    • 40 Metascore
    • 44 Critic Score
    Fancy time with Scofield, Sucre, Abruzzi and co? Buy the first season on DVD; it's much more fun.
    • 79 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Another tortuously brutal NES-styled slice of gaming masochism for the hardest of the hardcore. [July 2010, p.121]

    • 46 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    The 360 already has its share of top-grade fighters, making this instantly obsolete. [June 2010, p.99]

    • 81 Metascore
    • 82 Critic Score
    In stark contrast to the first game, you'll never be at a loss for something to be getting on with. You never feel compelled to do anything by the book and every session you play, you'll find yourself concentrating on a new part of the game, continually getting distracted by something else along the way.

    A charming gameworld. [July 2010, p.92]

    The best MotoGP for years, thanks to a great Career mode. Just a pity about the handling.
    • 75 Metascore
    • 55 Critic Score
    A sad step back in the quest to get a deep RTS to work well on the Xbox 360. [June 2010, p.89]

    A nostalgia-fest which hasn't aged well - but it will still bring a massive smile to the faces of old blokes. [June 2010, p.118]
    • Xbox World 360 Magazine UK
    • 77 Metascore
    • 90 Critic Score
    A brilliantly atmospheric shooter with forgivably imperfect gunplay. Stick with it.

    • 80 Critic Score
    Expensive but expansive, this is a hefty and thoroughly enjoyable addition. Shame about the dwarf. [June 2010, p.120]

    • 80 Critic Score
    Revolutionary battle and overworld systems held back by repetitive dungeons and toughness. [May 2010, p.74]

    • 40 Critic Score
    A tedious top-down racer priced at three times its worth. Disappointing stuff from the N+ boys. [June 2010, p.121]

    • 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
    • 81 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Not as smart as Defence Grid but more fun, this is brains, brawn and great big balls for ten pounds. [June 2010, p.121]

    The cliche 'game of two halves' normally conjures up images of classic football comebacks, but after staggering through the glaringly uneven single-player campaign in Bad Company 2, twenty-four hours after spending a whole day solidly playing the superb multiplayer component, there's hardly a more apt description of DICE's wannabe CoD-killer. This is all about the online game.
