What a bad bunch. I love my DS. One of the best consoles ever.

Wow. So much crap on such a little system!

I to love my DS, but the gems are far between lately.

amazing how low the quality control is for DS games. dont get me wrong, my kids are never off theirs, but the games are - on the whole - shite.

So sad to see such a sea of dross on such a great little machine. Thank God for things like Professor Layton and Age of Empires: Mythologies.

(P.S. I've finished the US version of Layton if anyone wants a cheap copy!)

It's like any really popular console. You get all the shite and that allows publishers (hopefully) to make good games too.

The PS and PS2 had some great games, but they were about 1% of the total games on those platforms.

This one's not really up to Eurogamer's usual writing standards. Smacks of someone new trying too hard to make an impression. Being harsh for the sake of being harsh because it makes the article have more impact doesn't really seem fare on some of these.

Actually, Subbuteo is a splendid little game on DS, and the reviewer is a muppet.

UltimateWarrior: Ouch! Harsh words indeed. Sadly though, no, I wasn't trying to be sensational for sensation's sake, just trying to give them the score they deserve as per the old Eurogamer scoring policy. They are something of a mediocre bunch overall.

Campebell: Sorry, I just didn't spot that glint of a hidden gem in Subbuteo that you seem to have. Visuals aside, it didn't perform well enough to capture my interest either as a port of the tabletop game or as a turn-based football game in its own right. What do you like about it?
