  1. Some great games let down by a clunky port. Worth it for fans of the films, mind.

    As a compilation of five excellent adventures, it's hard not to recommend Back to the Future: The Game for Wii. However, given that it's also available at the same price (and in a better form) on PC and Mac, it's impossible to recommend this version over those.

    Fun, witty, and mad. This is how a Back to the Future game should be. The return of the cast make this game instantly memorable and further exploration into the universe is always welcome.

    Back to the Future: The Game successfully translates what made the original movie great into a fun, challenging, imaginative and funny adventure game that's often a joy to play. Telltale has crafted a loving tribute to the film, then, but this is a loveless port, marred with frequent load times and small presentational glitches.

  1. Horrid, it's such a shame. Glitchy, horrendous load times and clearly missing hd. Another downside is that it's very easy to finish due to the hints section, if you use it. This game is a really bad port. On the plus side, great story, full of nostalgia and great voice acting. I would only recommend if you found it somewhere really cheap or if you are a massive BTTF fan. Expand
