    • Metascore: 73
    • Critic Score 49
    It's OK for a quickie, but with such lacklustre tables, you'll never be able to form a lasting relationship with it. [July 2006, p.112]
    • Metascore: 53
    • Critic Score 49
    A tragic waste of one of gaming's more loveable franchises, Adventure takes the Monkey Ball concept and employs it in a manner to which it just isn't suited. [Aug 2006, p.58]
    • Metascore: 53
    • Critic Score 48
    All you'd expect of a Turtles game - tired, repetitive, primary coloured hack 'n' slash monotony and nothing else. Don't even buy it for a hated younger relative. [June 2006, p.63]
    • Metascore: 51
    • Critic Score 47
    It's fun for a while, but the lame objectives and lack of power-ups soon make this a chore. It's about time this franchise was buried under some rubble. [May 2006, p.68]
    • Metascore: 57
    • Critic Score 45
    A hilarious waste of time. A few Xtreme Legends updates here and there was bearable, but one for every version of the game is just too much. [May 2006, p.70]
    • Metascore: 50
    • Critic Score 44
    An ultra-niche and adequately designed quiz game with enough questions to keep you going for a couple of hours, but only really worth a rental. [Apr 2006, p.73]
    • Metascore: 66
    • Critic Score 43
    A game that will appeal to no one, but if you're the exception to the rule, please send a photo as we're curious to know what you look like. Cheers. [June 2006, p.69]
    • Metascore: 43
    • Critic Score 40
    We'd love to see another good urban brawler, but this isn't anywhere near to being it. [May 2006, p.58]
    • Metascore: 67
    • Critic Score 40
    While there are 40 titles on offer, this ultimately weak collection of C-list games will excite only the most crazed retro mentalist. Not us, then. [Apr 2006, p.52]
    • Metascore: 60
    • Critic Score 39
    Yes, it's Crapt. [Apr 2006, p.72]
    • Metascore: 57
    • Critic Score 36
    Terrible. Oveblown, opportunistic nonsense. If you're a FFVII fan avoid Dirge of Cerebrus completely - it'll only sully your memories. [JPN Import; June 2006, p.68]
    • Metascore: 39
    • Critic Score 35
    The action is linear and unexciting, and while it tries to incorporate verying submissions, it all feels samey. Pray it never comes to the UK. [Apr 2006, p.64]
    • Metascore: 72
    • Critic Score 33
    Don't be fooled by the nostalgia factor - these games are tired and outdated. That you can put them in your pocket and play them anywhere doesn't actually make them any more fun. [June 2006, p.80]
    • Metascore: 66
    • Critic Score 31
    Everything you'd expect from an action movie license - brainless, flashy and without substance. Which would be OK if it wasn't so utterly rubbish too. [July 2006, p.92]
    • Metascore: 44
    • Critic Score 30
    A terrible shooter that does nothing new and does it badly. Bereft of reason to exist, don't even let this cross your path, let alone buy it. [June 2006, p.69]
    • Metascore: 43
    • Critic Score 26
    Blocky, awkward and creatively broken, Zathura is another lazy, cut-price movie tie-in that just isn't worth getting involved in. [Apr 2006, p.73]
