Metal Gear Solid V: Ground Zeroes was my most anticipated game of this year. Whilst it is undeniably great in a lot of ways, it definitely does not live up to my expectations as a long term fan of Metal Gear. The game is of course mired in controvers...

This could have been the shortest review I have ever written, I just wanted to write 'It's Peggle 2' and leave it at that but I know you our loyal readers would want to know more. For those who have played Peggle before you will feel right at ...

The Walking Dead: 400 Days is the bridging episode between Season One and Season Two of Telltale Games' critically acclaimed adventure series. Rather than do a full review for 400 Days, I'll just do this taster. It's too short to warrant a full revie...

Late last week we received a Guild Wars 2 Mouse and Mousepad courtesy of SteelSeries. SteelSeries is known for their extremely high quality products within both the PC and Console gaming community and the GuildWars 2 Mouse and Mousepad appear to be n...

I'm finally getting round to doing my first hardware review and it's the Tritton Kunai headset for Wii U & 3DS. Doing headset reviews can prove to be a problem because everyone has a different opinion when it comes to style, comfort and sound qua...

So, the history of Video game movies has not been great. We all recall the horrors of films like Street Fighter and Doom. Many people said that it should not be attempted, as games and movies are just too different, and to that I would heartily agree...

2D Platformers are back in style, thanks to the PlayStation Network and Xbox Live Arcade. In the last few years we’ve seen some real gems, such as the puzzle focused Braid and Limbo, and the more reflex-based Super Meat Boy. Hell Yeah! Wrath of the...

Way of the Samurai was an obscure PS2 game released in 2002. It told the story of a young Ronin who arrives in a town and finds warring factions battling for dominance. Its main hook was the level of choice involved: Who to fight, who to talk to, wha...

If the name Carrier Command sounds familiar then you’re probably an old-time RTS fan or retro fanatic. The original Carrier Command, developed by Realtime Games, is a landmark ‘80s computer game. Available for the Amiga, Atari ST, MS-DOS, Commo...

The “next big thing” of action RPGs is here. Spawning from the labs of Runic Games and headed by such brains as Travis Baldree, Max Schaefer, Erich Schaefer and Peter Hu. One thing is for sure. The base Torchlight feel is here. Its still the g...

I was a Sega kid, growing up. Having said that, I didn’t own a Dreamcast until after their brief heyday, and only have a small familiarity with Jet Set Radio. Of course, I knew of the title, as it’s visual style and funky soundtrack were hard to ...

Another year and another outing for PES or Pro Evolution Soccer, the game promises some exciting additions and updates. But is everything as good as it seems? It has been a long time since I have played Pro Evolution Soccer. I switched over to FIF...

Ninja have been the stars of video games for many years. Titles such as Ninja Gaiden, Bushido Blade, and Shinobi have all allowed us to step into the shoes of the fearsome assassins and kick some serious ass using swords, shurikens, and awesome ninja...

Vigil's latest entry into the Darksiders saga is a game that really likes to get around. It's already available on consoles, PC and OnLive and there's even a Wii U version coming at the end of the year for those patient enough to wait. While the o...

At first glance Madden 13 may look like just another Madden, but in your hands the game feels refined. There are 25 new pass trajectories to put the ball above the receiver, in front of him or right in his bread basket. Defensive backs now must be ab...
