  • Battlefield: Bad Company 2
    Published Date: Mar 12, 2010

    Whether or not you got that giddy feeling like a mid-March burst of Christmas cheer, perhaps resulting in a resistance to sleep the night before this arrived, will probably depend on whether you rocked out with Battlefield 1942 and other subsequent releases on PC before getting on with [i]Bad...

  • Supreme Commander 2
    Published Date: Mar 11, 2010

    The RTS genre has been around for the best part of two decades, and for all the innovations in game play and graphics, it always seems like somebody hasn’t gotten the memo. Despite a few concessions to modernity, Supreme Commander 2 has sprung fully-formed from a portal to the late-nineties...

  • Heavy Rain
    Published Date: Mar 2, 2010

    When a developer like Quantic Dream comes along and tries to forge new ground in the search for success in the realm of gaming, you have to pay attention, and give credit where it’s due. In that respect, Heavy Rain is certainly an achievement, and often it’s an emotionally gripping exper...

  • Aliens vs Predator
    Published Date: Mar 1, 2010

    Twenty years ago Danny Glover, bloody and battered, wandered into a Predator trophy room and viewers glimpsed the Xenomorph skull hanging on the wall, kicking off the cult following that would pit two of Hollywood’s nastiest incarnations against each other. The Alien vs Predator phenomenon has spa...

  • MAG
    Published Date: Feb 25, 2010

    Anyone who has played any of the major FPS titles in recent years will have been looking forward to the release of MAG, the Massive Action Game. Zipper Interactive designed a title that promised to knock Modern Warfare 2 right off its lofty perch and redefine how couch-based sol...

  • BioShock 2
    Published Date: Feb 16, 2010

    To save myself from rehashing at length the various perspectives of a BioShock sequel, let me try and cram it into a few words. Was BioShock a game that needed a sequel, or was it a release that should have been left alone for those of us who have experienced it to think fondly on tha...

  • Dante's Inferno
    Published Date: Feb 11, 2010

    There must be something in the air. As they say with buses, you wait for ages and then three come along at once. Or two, although you get my point. Dante’s Inferno is the third button-mashing title to arrive in a little over a month, and it has some tough competition to do battle with. ...

  • Tatsunoko Vs. Capcom: Ultimate All-stars
    Published Date: Feb 11, 2010

    When did fighting games become a niche thing? When I was growing up everyone was playing Street Fighter II, but I guess the world moved on. The Western World moved on, anyway, or moved in, to be precise. Back In The Day it was ALL Japanese, but where there’s money there will be America. At ...

  • Mass Effect 2
    Published Date: Feb 7, 2010

    As the second of a trilogy, Mass Effect 2 has some work to do. It must continue the saga of Commander Shepard and allow players who have completed Mass Effect to move seamlessly into the second portion of the story, while also remaining open enough to allow the people that compete [i]Mass Ef...

  • Army of Two: The 40th Day
    Published Date: Jan 24, 2010

    There's something about co-op gameplay that I really enjoy, where you can try and employ specific tactics to achieve an objective rather than being called a lolfag every two minutes while half your team teleports across the map because of chronic lag issues. There is something about two or four peo...
