    • Metascore: 65
    • Critic Score 40
    It's basically an 8-bit knock-off of Wipeout, without all the fun destructive bits like mines or rockets. [June 2010, p.113]

    Relegation fodder. [Aug 2010, p.117]

    If the tracking listing consisted of Lady Gaga and Crystal Castles, twiddling a little arrow around and hitting the face buttons might be more satisfying. [Sept 2010, p.117]

    • Metascore: 65

    Play time is kept to a minimum, with most of the development effort put into designing reams of menus for you to navigate...ensuring that you never start to have actual fun. [Issue#51, p.118]
    • Metascore: 58
    • Critic Score 40
    The odd firefight generates some excitement, but this is all too rare considering that you're piloting a 30ft tall walking tank of death. [Issue#51, p.111]
    • Metascore: 47
    • Critic Score 40
    Useless like a paper hammer. [Feb 2011, p.113]
    • Metascore: 38

    A couple hours in, and you're starting to feel pretty stupid yourself! [Jan 2011, p.118]
    • Metascore: 56
    • Critic Score 40
    You're either on rails with almost no control, or doing random tricks that feel totally disconnected from the peripheral itself. [Jan 2011, p.121]
    • Metascore: 44

    Feeble mimic. [Spring 2011, p.108]

    Bland weapons and generic enemies. [Spring 2011, p.111]

    Random turn-based combat and impenetrable inventory. [Spring 2011, p.116]

    • Critic Score 40
    Mixed up and odd, like a platypus in a petting zoo. [Spring 2011, p.116]

    An exercise in tedium. [Spring 2011, p.117]

    An incoherent mix of unattractive art styles and an absurd plot. [Apr 2011, p.114]
    • Metascore: 64
    • Critic Score 40
    Storm's thunderthighs remain strangely alluring though. [Apr 2011, p.118]
    • Metascore: 57
    • Critic Score 40
    Never has mass slaughter felt so pedestrian. [May 2011, p.103]
    • Metascore: 69
    • Critic Score 40
    It's a solid enough bit of brain training, but there's nothing new here, nor anything more fun than a face full of yellow snow. [May 2011, p.113]
    • Metascore: 61
    • Critic Score 40
    Just mildly incomprehensible. [May 2011, p.118]
    • Metascore: 39
    • Critic Score 40
    Everything works and it will kill a few hours, but only in a rubber-necking, see-where-it-goes kind of way. [July 2011, p.103]
    • Metascore: 51
    • Critic Score 40
    There aren't any highs as such, just moments of not sucking. [Aug 2011, p.108]
    • Metascore: 47
    • Critic Score 40
    Was it necessary to also make it so ugly? [Aug 2011, p.110]
    • Metascore: 43
    • Critic Score 40
    A ham-fisted cover shooter with sloppy controls and dully weaponry (read: spells). [Sept 2011, p.116]
    • Metascore: 51
    • Critic Score 40
    Little more than an unfortunate blip on the gaming radar. [Sept 2011, p.116]
    • Metascore: 69
    • Critic Score 40
    Like olden days Command & Conquer. Only minus the combat, the war, and the fun. [Sept 2011, p.116]
    • Metascore: 57
    • Critic Score 40
    By no means a disaster, but it captures none of the majestic, mechaphiliac idiocy of the movies. [Sept 2011, p.117]
    • Metascore: 48
    • Critic Score 40
    The game constantly makes you look a titanic fool, but matching the rhythm of the Move's rumble to your gestures for extra speed is oddly satisfying. [Nov 2011, p.109]
