A pitiful tie-in to a sub-standard movie. [June 2011, p.111]

This would have been an embarrassment in 1987. [Sept 2011, p.116]

Absolutely abysmal. [Dec 2011, p.103]

A painfully slow and aged Millionaire quiz. [Jan 2012, p.114]

While the story at least tries to play on reality, the gameplay lurches back and forth between sim and arcade. [Feb 2012, p.107]

It's an overly complicated system that screams of an attempt to be modern and forward-looking, but will actually end up with a bunch of pissed-off purchasers feeling like they've paid nearly 20 pounds for a trial version. Which, to be perfectly honest, is pretty much all this is.

The combat is still woeful. [Apr 2012, p.97]

Unless you enjoy dressing-up games or cluster headaches, run for your life, and don't look back. [Dec 2012, p.117]

Unfortunately, there’s just no hope for this one. Sure, it looks like a game – and we all love games – but the rot has taken hold and it’s too late to save it. You should go on ahead and we’ll put this sorry thing out of its misery.

Weaponry is dull and so are the contests - a mix of base capturing and amassing kills. Avoid like a landmine. [May 2007, p.120]

The stylistic, themed pieces (aquatic, chaos, etc.) all look the same unless you squint, and the lacklustre animations have no purpose other than slowing down play. [Apr 2007, p.118]

This is a farce of a game and "Super Smash Bros" has already done the cartoon, co-op, beat-'em-up with infinitely more flair and class, nine long years ago. [Mar 2007, p.111]

Horrible. [May 2007, p.114]

The only fight this game is winning is the one for worst beat-em-up on PSP. [Aug 2007, p.114]

Thanks for the memories, Mr. Wizard. Now toddle back to your castle and don't bother us again. [Oct 2007, p.113]

Excruciatingly sterile turn-based combat. [Sept 2007, p.116]

If there were no other racers on PS3, or indeed on the planet, buying this would still be a mistake, but with the likes of Dirt already out there, and Motorstorm: Pacific Rift on the horizon, spending money on Baja would be nothing short of madness. [Dec 2008, p.113]

In a game that's only two hours long, being this gnawingly repetitive is actually quite an achievement. [May 2009, p.103]

Should you even think about renting it for a laugh? To quote Dick Marcinko: "F*ck no." [Feb 2010, p.107]

Cheap and nasty. [Dec 2009, p.18]

It's almost worth playing Chronicles just to appreciate how bad it is. Almost, but definitely not. [Apr 2010, p.112]

To facilitate the stalking, there's a present-giving mechanic. [June 2010, p.119]

Two hours of unmitigated boredom. [Christmas 2010]

Avoid like you would a family holiday to Nudefest 2010. [Issue#51, p.110]

There's not enough room here to say how much I hate this game. I could write a novel about why Two Worlds II is the worst thing to happen to the fantasy RPG genre since encumbrance systems. [Apr 2011, p.114]

You'd be better off being put to sleep for all eternity. [Apr 2011, p.118]

If I'd bought this for the Atari ST in 1989, I'd want my money back. [Sept 2011, p.107]

Pretty amusing until you realise what a shameful rip-off it is. [Sept 2011, p.108]
