Harmonix are veritable kings of the music game genre and it seems they are not content to sit in the realm of “music games” any longer. The recent release of rock band 3 with its pro mode sees gam... Read More
I sometimes wonder who decided that motion controls were the way forward for our modern generation of consoles. Some titles manage to get away with it but, generally speaking, you always wind up looki... Read More
Just on account of the Nintendogs franchise not being successful and annoying enough, Microsoft has deemed it plausible to play the copycat game (excuse the pun) by releasing Kinectimals for their new... Read More
Those of you who read my reviews regularly will be well acquainted with my tendency to reminisce on ghosts of gaming past. It is thus that I begin to dwell in my memories once more as Start the Party ... Read More
Sports compilations are well designed for the motion control paradigm. With a wealth of games already invented for you to digitize, it is an easy way to demonstrate the versatility of your motion cont... Read More
I'm generally sceptical of kid-friendly racing games (aside from Mario Kart of course.) I'm also very cynical when it comes to newer Sonic games. My apprehension toward motion controls also precedes m... Read More
The thought of a fighting game using motion controls is nothing new and it was thus with a sense of familiarity that I popped The Fight: Lights Out into my PS3. As the game goes through the usual mand... Read More
It is a common misconception that violent people get their rage out through fighting games. If this were a reality though, Fighters Uncaged would be the Citizen Kane of rage releasing gaming. The idea... Read More
The moment I saw the shiny globe that crowns Sony's new move controller, I just knew that it was begging to be brandished like a sword. Sports Champions has scratched this particular itch of mine and ... Read More
Until Microsoft's new Kinect hardware settles into the market, we are going to be seeing the same gaming archetypes we saw on the Wii many years ago being replicated. It is with this in mind that I em... Read More
I'm generally one of those kind of guys who gets on very well with Japanese culture. I've watched my fair share of anime over the years, and have always found the quirky sense of humour rather charmin... Read More

It was only a few weeks ago I was sat in this very same chair with my head in my hands lamenting the missed opportunity that was Sonic the Hedgehog 4. My head has once again been lifted as I have had ... Read More
Now I've never been the head editor for a publication as big as OK! Magazine but, if I was, I certainly doubt that my job would entail doing crossword puzzles and sudoku. OK! Puzzle stars has little o... Read More
James Bond has been in a lot of films and books, most have which have been well worth while. Sadly 007's track record on the gaming scene is less than stellar by comparison. Blood Stone is the second ... Read More
Sometimes celebrities need to stick with what their good at. Has anyone ever heard Hillary Duff's singing career?! (although saying that does imply she was good at acting, which is highly debatable.) ... Read More
I'm one of these uncultured (or should it be cultured) individuals who knows very little about the WWE and wrestling in general. My ten year old self was rather amused by the whole thing and a large m... Read More
