Mike of the 123Kinect.com gave the video game a 5/10 rating based on 123 reviews.

• In the game's first trailer and early advertising, a prototype cover was used. This is because the game didn't have a finalized cover art at the time. The prototype consisted of a Rating Pending (RP) from the ESRB, the system logo, the new THQ logo, and the game's logo placed centered on a white or yellow background.
