Charming but flawed, and lacks ambition. [May 2011, p.101]

The boredom of playing as this droid isn't helped by the drab nature of the game's design. [Issue#70, p.100]

Slightly under whelming in some respects, the game could have done well with more whit and sharpness in dialog from the voice talent for instance. Blame the script, not the talent. It is a fast simple game. With visuals that will delight for a time.

THIS IS PEAK!
The level design et graphics are like candy to the eye, the characters give so many emotions even with just their robotic faces, and don't get me started on these bosses, tremendously good. One word: PEAK.

So goddamn boring and does nothing new it's a boring run of the mill platformer

DISCLAIMER:This is numbered at 8 for children, my kids (5, 6, 7) have been playing this game non-stop, they love the characters and it has tons of replay value. They have been playing it for over 8 hours and their friends love watching them. The only other game they have played this long are the Legos series games. If you do not have a Wii this is one of the best bets for you kids if they have played all of the legos games

Spare Parts is a solid platformer if you're playing solo, but it really shines in multiplayer.

Spare Parts could have been better. Nevertheless, the title produced by EA is fun and never frustrating. Don't expect a game that will leave an indelible mark in your memory, but, for some carefree hours of play, it's very good.

As disappointing as Spare Parts is, I hope that we do see the characters again. They deserve to be in a better game.

Maddeningly obtuse design more often than not makes Spare Parts an exercise in irritation rather than fun.

Spare Parts feels like a movie license game without a movie, and not even the interesting things - like co-op and Simon Pegg's voice - manage to brighten up this bland and uninspiring affair.

It's a short and rather insipid slog that simply doesn't have the charm or ambition to compensate for its wonkier aspects.
