Jack Keane (PC)
30-Mar-08
Sometimes a different type of game is very pleasing. The relatively relaxing nature of Jack Keane compared to the violent and/or chaotic games that dominate gaming today is most welcome when you're feeling a bit tired, but not quite in the mood to do something else, like reading. The excellent puzzl...
The Club (Xbox 360)
27-Mar-08
The Club can divide opinions quite quickly. Upon receiving the Bizarre Creations title I took it to a bunch of gamers I regularly meet up with to see what they thought of it. They certainly appreciated the four player split-screen play which allowed us to try out something other than Halo 3 without ...
Call of Duty 4 (PC)
17-Mar-08
There can be no doubting what a multiplayer success Call of Duty 4 has been. The Xbox 360 version has been popular enough to topple even the mighty Halo 3 on the weekly Xbox Live unique users list. The PlayStation 3 version was actually a perfect port (unlike The Orange Box), and thus it found succe...
Super Mario Galaxy (Wii)
15-Feb-08
When Nintendo get off their backsides every six months and finally deliver us a game, by general rule of thumb, it's going to be one of the year's greatest games. Last year we experienced Metroid Prime 3 and rounded off the year with Super Mario Galaxy. And what a way to round off the year. If it wa...
TimeShift (Xbox 360)
14-Feb-08
So, TimeShift, eh? Well, this review is a bit overdue; I've had Matt on at me for a while on this one... In any case, here it is; a bit on the short side this review, but then this is one of those average games with average controls and an average story. So there's not really much to say; nothing go...
Sega Rally (Xbox 360)
01-Feb-08
While Sega Rally is very much one of Sega's classic franchises, it is classic in a different way to the likes of Sonic, NiGHTS, or Space Channel 5. It's a part of Sega's rich arcade heritage rather than the console front, and despite the ports to home machines, it's still an arcade series at heart. ...
Boulder Dash Rocks! (Nintendo DS)
09-Jan-08
As far as home video game series go, Boulder Dash is one of the older ones, with its first incarnation being released in 1984. So, 23 years later we have been given this latest incarnation of the game, the punnily titled Boulder Dash Rocks!. BDR!'s main gameplay resembles that of the original Boulde...
Eternal Sonata (Xbox 360)
31-Dec-07
Eternal Sonata is one of those games that so desperately tries to bend the mould of RPGs. In some respects, it does this in a glorified fashion, removing the hundreds of menu systems just to attack the enemy usually found in most titles in the genre. In its place, the developers have put in an attac...
Tarr Chronicles (PC)
22-Nov-07
It hasn't been long since we looked at the unfinished version of Tarr Chronicles, so it's hardly surprising to see this version hasn't changed very much. Not that this is a bad thing; our preview code showed a product of near-complete status, and since then the changes seem to have been mostly ironi...
Thrillville: Off the Rails (Xbox 360)
17-Nov-07
I think that this is going to be my first review where I'm going to give my final comments at the start. Now I'm sure most of you who are reading this are probably wondering why. Well, it's simple; this game is just not good. In fact, I'm going to come out and say it; don't buy this game. Instead, i...
