  • Greed: Black Border
    Published Date: Jan 19, 2010

    If recent trends in entertainment are anything to go by, exploring deep space is going to involve dealing with an awful lot of zombies, giant bugs, and strange combinations of the two. Greed: Black Border is the latest title to jump on this particular bandwagon, but unfortunately this science...

  • Guitar Hero 5
    Published Date: Oct 13, 2009

    I’ve been waiting to get my hands on Guitar Hero 5, not because I’m a fanboy, but because it was always going to be tough to come out with something when the previous release came with the drum kit and microphone. In order to avoid the predictable “Well it’s good, but...” utterings...

  • Ghostbusters: The Video Game
    Published Date: Jun 29, 2009

    Once in a while a game or movie will come along that will generate enough hype to power a small country. The first of the Star Wars prequels, the new Indy movie, the latest Resident Evil or GTA title, you know the type. The only problem with this is that sometimes the pre-releas...

    Published Date: Jun 29, 2009

    On a rare occasion, realism is a double edged sword, although to be fair it is a damned rare occasion. You never hear fans of Operation Flashpoint complaining that it was just too hard to play, or Forza 2 racers whinging about the car tweaking you can do. I wouldn’t imagine ...

  • Guitar Hero Metallica
    Published Date: May 13, 2009

    Having only got on the Guitar Hero bandwagon with Legends of Rock and then Guitar Hero World Tour I’m a relative newcomer, but for a short time I was knee deep in it, but like most other fads I dabbled in, I suddenly stopped caring. Just like that. It could have something t...

  • GTA: Chinatown Wars
    Published Date: Mar 30, 2009

    The single biggest factor for games to catch the attention of players, and hold it, is gameplay. While smashing graphics, thumping soundtracks and big guns are great sellers, a game with excellent gameplay will be played and remembered for longer. The Grand Theft Auto series has finally made ...

  • GTA: Chinatown Wars Hands On Preview
    Published Date: Mar 8, 2009

    When Rockstar invited us down to Sydney to get to have a run on GTA Chinatown Wars on the Nintendo DS, we were keen as hell to give it a go. Why? Because we needed to be convinced that the DS, as a system, could house such a large game world - with a substantial range of missions like all the other ...

  • GTA IV: The Lost and Damned
    Published Date: Feb 19, 2009

    Liberty City, the sandbox that played out all our fun in GTA IV has opened its highways and byways once again, this time to allow gamers see the city and its inhabitants from a different perspective, and without all the friend-making the original included. For 1600MS points you get a new cam...

    Published Date: Nov 21, 2008

    While it’s fair to say that I have an issue with Cock, I mean, Rock Band, believe it or not I think I can manage to keep those feelings away from this review. Except for that, just there. Oh dear. For those of you not in the know, or blind and deaf, the Guitar Hero series (which now nu...

  • Gears of War 2
    Published Date: Nov 19, 2008

    Of course it was. I mean, Gears of War was a superb game with a huge fanbase for both its single player campaign and it successful multiplayer. So all the developers needed to do was give us a new and improved version of the same thing and they’re laughing. Which is exactly what they’v...
