The Legend of Heroes: Trails in the Sky Review
Trails in the Sky is a 7-year-old game released again for the PSP, and oh boy, it’s one of the best, simple and old-school JRPGs I’ve played this year. I really have to praise this game, because ... Read More
Rayman Origins Review
Rayman is one of the more instantly recognisable figures in gaming history, yet his time in the industry has been up and down over the years. Initially starring in his own 2D platformer, it was the su... Read More
Dungeon Defenders (PSN) Review
Some of you might have played Dungeon Defenders on your iOS or Android device already, but for those of you who haven't, now is the perfect time to do so. Because while it may not be the best download... Read More
All Zombies Must Die Review
Oh look what it is! It’s another zombie game. And it’s also another twin-stick shooter. All Zombies Must Die for Xbox Live is a fun game, just like almost all zombie games out there, but the ques... Read More
Shinobi (3DS) Review
In our post-modern culture where nothing can be truly seen as original and new, gaming, along with just about every other medium out there, is looking to the past for inspiration. This has resulted in... Read More
Sonic Generations 3DS Review
Sonic hasn't been at his best over the past decade. Indeed, Sega seemed to be mishandling Sonic and his now “radical” style at every turn, but things have been looking up with the awesome Sonic Ge... Read More
Kinect: Disneyland Adventures Review
Ever been to Disneyland? If not, Kinect: Disney Land Adventures is incredibly accurate. The developers have done a fine job recreating it in the game, and I can go as far and say that it is basicall... Read More
Sesame Street: Once Upon a Monster Review
As the name implies, the game is for children. You could argue that the Kinect is too, at this stage considering all the games that have been released so far on the system, and most of the hardcore g... Read More
Earth Defense Force: Insect Armaggedon Review
Do you love killing insects? Yes? Then you will have a blast here, but for not that long. You encounter waves and waves of insects and robots in Earth Defense Force: Insect Armageddon (IA henceforth... Read More
Trine 2 Review
Trine 2 is an amazing game; let me get this out of the way first. It’s about teamwork and incredible platforming which challenges your wit to the limits. It’s also about using the powers of the t... Read More
WRC2: FIA World Rally Championship 2011 Review
Sequels are an inevitable part of a successful franchise, more so in gaming than any other medium. There seems to be a bit of contention on the idea of video game sequels as of late though, with more ... Read More
The Lord of the Rings: War in the North Review
Just by reading the name of the game, you will be skeptical of it. Why? It’s simple, because no one has made a decent LOTR game before. Does that change with the latest LOTR game – War in the Nor... Read More
James Noir’s Hollywood Crimes 3D Review
Trailers are getting better these days. Too many times recently have I seen an amazing trailer that is followed by a sense of disappointment in the product it is meant to represent. I'm used to this h... Read More
Forza Motorsport 4 November Speed Pack Review
Turn 10 had said that they will release DLC for Forza 4 every month, and the first of these DLCs has landed. Please check out our Forza Motorsport 4 review over here. I had given it a great score ... Read More
Ultimate Marvel vs. Capcom 3 Review
Marvel vs. Capcom 3 was released after almost a decade of inactivity by Capcom. Were the fans pleased? You bet. Why wouldn’t they? They have been clamoring for the game for a long time now, but ju... Read More
Infinity Blade 2 Review
“iOS games are not true games! How can they be? They’re a disgrace. It’s not hardcore.” Yeah, you hear people saying all sorts of things like this, but that’s not true, is it? When you look... Read More
Might & Magic Heroes VI Review
After two and a half decades since the start of the much-loved franchise, Black Hole Entertainment brings the epic world of Ashan back to life with Might & Magic Heroes VI. Taking place some 400 ... Read More
WWE ’12 Review
Wrestling games in the past have either veered on the sublime or ridiculous – much like the television shows. A fighting title is only as good as its myriad moves and combos, the catalogue of varied... Read More
The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword Review
There are some videogames that have defined the gaming industry over the years, and whenever a new one comes along, it’s simply a monumental occasion. You know which ones they are, right? Yeah, I'm... Read More
House of the Dead Overkill: Extended Cut Review
I tend to have a gag reflex when it comes to any games that feature guns. As the shooter genre and its various tributaries have evolved over the years, they have become increasingly similar, constantl... Read More
FIFA Manager 12 Review
Now, I don't really find FIFA Manager as good as SEGA's Football Manager, but there are quite a lot of improvements in this year's version. These games are usually not the easiest once to get into fo... Read More
Assassin’s Creed: Revelations Review
The Assassin's Creed franchise has gone from strength to strength over the course of the last half decade. The original Assassin's Creed was an ambitious project that wowed one and all and yet still... Read More
Sonic Generations Review
Sonic Generations is a game that has been a long time coming but, as the popular aphorism goes, better late than never. Sonic Generations takes Sonic back to his roots, all the while managing to updat... Read More
Ninja Throw HD Review
Another one of Chillingo's masterpeices is Ninja Throw HD, except this isn't even close to being one. It's sort of formulaic and the same thing you expect from most puzzle based games that hit the i... Read More
Rocket Riot HD Review
Rocket Riot is one of the most engrossing iOS games I’ve played this year. It has a unique old school 8-bit pixel visual style, which really adds a lot to the atmosphere. You can pretty much destr... Read More
Rocketbirds: Hardboiled Chicken Review
These 2D side-scrolling games never strike as unique to me. They always end up resembling some other game in the genre. That’s not a bad thing, though. You can only innovate so much in the genre i... Read More
Captain America: Super Soldier (3DS) Review
Though the game may have come out in time for the film back in August, the powers that be have only just granted me a review copy of Captain America: Super Soldier for 3DS. With my slightly less than ... Read More
Tekken Hybrid Review
The launch of PS3 exclusive Tekken Hybrid is a comprehensive package of fighting goodness for fans of the series, combining a 3D movie – Tekken: Blood Vengeance, an HD version of the classic fan fav... Read More
The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim Review
It’s always a daunting task to review any Scrolls game, or normally any game from Bethesda. It’s mainly due to the fact that the world they create is filled with so much content that it is impos... Read More
Halo: Combat Evolved Anniversary Review
10 years ago, Bungie and Microsoft together created what has to be one of the most revolutionary games of all time. Halo: Combat Evolved completely changed the dynamic of the market. It gave birth to ... Read More
