Scott Pilgrim Vs.The World Review

largecarrot@gmail.com (Alan) — Mon, 30 Aug 2010 17:20:00 GMT

In case you have been hiding under a rock, or on the run from international Mafia types you should be pretty familiar with the Scott Pilgrim Vs The World movie, on which this offering from Ubisoft is based. However, if you need refreshing then SPVTW is the classic story of “Boy meets girl, Boy loves girl, Boy has to defeat the evil ex-boyfriends of girl”.

Mafia II Review

chris@houseoftrix.com (Trix) — Mon, 30 Aug 2010 15:43:00 GMT

It’s been eight years since the first instalment of Mafia when it arrived on the PC in 2002 and 2k Czech appear to have moved with the times and created a stirring sequel to sit pretty on this generation of consoles.

ToyTastic Customization With Toy Story 3 – Xbox 360 Review

p_murphy44@hotmail.com (Philip Murphy) — Sat, 14 Aug 2010 21:57:00 GMT

As a kid I loved playing with toys, from my Thunder Cats figures, toy cars, to attaching a plastic bag to my green army men, throwing them up in the air and watching them parachute back down to earth. So as you can imagine the Toy Story movies recaptured all that nostalgia for me. Although when Toy Story 3 the game graced my desk, I was sceptical of the title and was going to brand it just another movie tie-in. So why have I not done this? All will be revealed, as this title has taken me by surprise.

StarCraft II: Wings of Liberty review

benjaminpaulhill@googlemail.com (Benjamin Paul Hill) — Mon, 09 Aug 2010 23:47:00 GMT

Over ten years to make a game is a very long time and often can build up hype in the fans only to leave them crushed when the title is delivered, as it doesn’t live up to the standards expected. StarCraft II: Wings of Liberty is NOT one of these games, it’s a game that at first may seem just like a beefed up version of its older brother with prettier graphics, faster game play and a better online model. But when you look a little closer is more a definition of RTS perfection with some nice new features. Read on for more…

Monster Hunter Tri Review

Ham.Vivian@googlemail.com (Daniel Vivian) — Sun, 08 Aug 2010 12:13:00 GMT

Way back when video games hadn't been invented, and electricity for that matter, people used to hunt for fun. This is something that has continued in some places, but as well have developed safer techniques for getting meat, the pass time seems to have gone out the window. Monster Hunter Tri wants to take you back to a time when electricity was only found in super cool monsters that live in water. And to no surprise, it managed it pretty well!

Opening a Can of Worms - Earthworm Jim HD Review

Imagine you're a little earthworm, wriggling about and eating dirt when suddenly a "Ultra-high-tech-indestructible-super-space-cyber-suit" falls to Earth after a scuffle between some evil types, transforming you into a rather buff wormy hero... sounds crazy? It is. That's Earthworm Jim for you.

Limbo: Videogame Noir

dexter_st@hotmail.com (Steve Thornton) — Thu, 05 Aug 2010 21:05:00 GMT

Playdead's hauntingly beautiful indie puzzler is sadistic, cruel, horrifying, infuriating, unfair, exhaustively tense, and brilliant.

Commander: Conquest Of The Americas Review

largecarrot@gmail.com (Alan) — Sun, 01 Aug 2010 19:04:00 GMT

I've been a big fan of strategy and management games ever since I became addicted to such titles as UFO:Enemy unknown and the Civilisation games, so I was more then happy when a copy of the latest offering from Nitro games ( creators of the fantastic “East India Trading Company” ) landed on my desk ready for review.

Transformers War for Cybertron: Best of Both Worlds

dexter_st@hotmail.com (Steve Thornton) — Sun, 01 Aug 2010 11:35:00 GMT

By blending the nostalgic warmth of the original animated series with the sharp stylish edges of Micheal Bays interpretation of the universe, War For Cybertron forges something fresh yet readily familiar to dedicated Transformers fans. It successfully encases the wry charm and personality of the show inside the slick shining chassis' of the live action films; a vintage model given a lick of paint.. and fitted with a beastly new engine.

Sinking Some Holes! Tiger Woods 2011 Review

benjaminpaulhill@googlemail.com (Benjamin Paul Hill) — Mon, 26 Jul 2010 16:52:00 GMT

Tiger Woods golf has always been a bit of a guilty pleasure of mine in videogames. With most of my friends and peers being devout hard core gamers it may seem a little unusual to them that I am actually quite fond of whacking a little white ball around 18 holes from the comfort of my own home. So here is my confession of sorts in the form of what I thought of the newest addition in the Tiger Woods series.
