Critic Reviews

30 Cheat Code Central
This title is amateurish all the way around, and I would have been more forgiving if the game were just a mistake, but it seems like these people are determined to create low-quality games to sell for a low price and fool the minds of those who can't or don't want to pay much for their games. This is the kind of game that brings the Wii down to embarrassing levels, and everyone should be against that.
29 IGN
The credits for Orbs of Doom reveal that the Quality Assurance team was the largest group that worked on the game. My question is: what were they doing with their time instead of testing Orbs of Doom?
20 Games Radar
Data Design must be stopped. Do not give them any more money. They are the equivalent of those movie studios that produce straight to DVD knockoffs of blockbusters in a cynical, lazy attempt to swindle cash from uninformed customers.
