    Surely space combat has come further than this in the last decade? [Issue#13, p.58]

    Mediocre management and terrible racing means it's average at best. [Issue#10, p.58]

    • Critic Score 50
    An under-egged effort even more compromised by a token PC port. [Issue#17, p.69]

    A great idea with some impressive physics, but soon becomes a chore.

    An interesting story, but the overall package isn't engaging enough. [Issue#20, p.56]
    • Metascore: 59

    Clunky and uninspired. [Issue#29, p.55]
    • Metascore: 62
    • Critic Score 50
    It's a competent game, but it lacks the va-va-voom to recommend it. [Issue#23, p.56]
    • Metascore: 77
    • Critic Score 50
    A deep, detailed strategy title occasionally mired in its own complexities. [Issue#24, p.56]
    • Metascore: 41
    • Critic Score 40
    Damnation's good ideas are unfortunately never matched by its rough, unfinished and unsatisfying execution. [Issue#21, p.56]
    • Metascore: 61
    • Critic Score 40
    Velvet Assassin showed a lot of promise, but a wasted premise and flawed stealth mechanics let it down.
    • Metascore: 39
    • Critic Score 40
    Raven Squad is a wasted idea that suffers from poor execution. [Issue#25, p.52]

    No multiplayer, brief campaigns, same old factions and anemic AI.

    • Metascore: 51
    • Critic Score 40
    A great concept gone to tragic waste through non-existent AI. [Issue#29, p.54]
    • Metascore: 50
    • Critic Score 30
    Monotonous and slightly broken; a herculean task just to complete. [Issue#16, p.65]
    • Metascore: 33
    • Critic Score 30
    A haven for low-resolution textures, a lack of modern graphical technology, frequent clipping issues and camera angles that pan into walls and obstruct your view. [Issue#10, p.56]
    • Metascore: 42
    • Critic Score 30
    It's a re-invented fifth wheel on a car driving the wrong way up a one-way street. [Issue#20, p.55]
    • Metascore: 69
    • Critic Score 30
    Unfulfilling micromanagement makes FIFA Manager a poor match for the competition. [Issue#16, p.67]

    • Critic Score 30
    Gobliiins 4 has a lot of character, it just doesn’t have enough depth.
