» Contactmusic.com - Dead to Rights preview, key features and screenshots.
» G4TechTV - "Between the dull punchfests, the insanely accurate enemies, and the extra difficulty created by forcing the player to rely on autotargeting, completing Dead to Rights quickly becomes an act of will." Review by Matt Keil with screen shots and o
» Game Industry News - Reviewed by Todd Hargosh, score: 2-1/2 out of 5.
» Game Revolution - "Someone had a good idea and great reference material, but the end product is repetitive and lackluster." Review by Shawn Saunders with report card [C+] and screen shots.

» IGN - Review by Hilary Goldstein, [8.5]. "Had the fighting engine been better, this one would easily trounce Max Payne as king of the bullet-time games. But the fighting is too plain, too poor, and there's far too much of it."
» Maxim Online - "The body count is rivaled only by novel game-play features and production values that make blood spurts akin to snowflakes-no two are the same." Review by Craig Stevens with score [5/5].
» NetJak - "Some will make the obvious comparisons to Max Payne". Review by Greg.
