Up

Marvel Super Hero Squad

23/10/2009

This poorly ported PSP game lacks the multiplayer that redeemed its console counterpart, and is ruined by an unwieldy camera, terrible performance issues and mind-numbing repetition. Even the intended audience will be bored by this dead-simple 3D brawler.

SpongeBob's Truth or Square

Relive SpongeBob's happy moments from the show, such as when he becomes a fry cook, gets into the Salty Spittoon or meets Sandy for the first time. Equipped with special morphing abilities, players can transform SpongeBob into bizarre objects, such as the Spatula Slam, Propeller Spin and Sledgehammer Smash.

Taking place between the second and third prequels, this game is based on the similarly named animated series. Not only do you play as Jedis in the game, but also clone troopers.

Naruto Shippuden Legends: Akatsuki Rising

It’s unsurprising that an anime series as popular as Naruto has spawned so many games, but what is surprising is how few are actually any good. Akatsuki Rising doesn’t buck that trend.

Steambot Chronicles Battle Tournament

Despite the addicting bot-customizing, endless fetch quests quickly wear out the game's welcome.

From cardboard clouds to Stephen Fry, this is as close to the PS3 version of the game as we’d ever dared hope. And in some respects, it even surpasses the original.
