  • The Incredible Hulk
    Published Date: Sep 24, 2008

    Sega’s The Incredible Hulk is based on the well-known story of American scientist Dr Bruce Banner who, after having been exposed to a high dosage of radioactive energy, becomes the Hulk, a violent but good-hearted shape-shifting superhero/monster. More specifically, the game is related to t...

  • Top Spin 3
    Published Date: Jul 20, 2008

    2K’s Top Spin 3 has been highly anticipated on the Wii, especially since the producers continually promised hyper-realistic gameplay and graphics, as well as a pool of accurately modelled world famous players to choose from. To some degree, TS3 for the Wii lives up to these promises, but overall, ...

  • The Bigs
    Published Date: Apr 5, 2008

    The Bigs is Major League Baseball on steroids. Not like MLB players, who are in fact, for the most part, on steroids, but in the sense that this is balls-out baseball, a beefed-up celebration of highlight-clip material and unfathomable athleticism. As a result, you’ll see a lot monster homeruns ...

  • The Godfather: Blackhand Edition
    Published Date: Jul 23, 2007

    First of all, this game isn’t just a film adaptation, it’s also a port. So if you’re familiar with any of the Godfather merchandise, you’ll be familiar with the story of the Blackhand Edition. But don’t worry: Even if you come at this game knowing the films and knowing the earlier game ver...

  • The Sims 2: Pets
    Published Date: Jul 21, 2007

    The Sims, first released back in 2000, was something a quiet if quite strange revolution in gaming. Rather than firm, ends-based objectives, such as killing zombies, winning trophies, or solving puzzles, The Sims focused on the routine awfulness of everyday life. Players--or, better yet, innocuous m...

  • Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell: Double Agent
    Published Date: Apr 4, 2007

    If you’ve never played Splinter Cell before, than at least you’ve surely seen some awesome stills from the series: A burly spy dangling overhead from exposed ceiling piping, barely visible in the shadows, a silenced gun in his extended and gloved hand. Or: A burly spy with night-vision goggles, ...

  • Trauma Center: Second Opinion
    Published Date: Mar 23, 2007

    While it would appear that most game producers and developers scamper to adapt existing franchises, series, and ready-made ideas to the Wii console, with often embarrassingly awkward results-much like, say, a polar bear driving a Miata-some gearheads have unexpectedly found the opposite true. Ta...

  • Tony Hawk's Downhill Jam
    Published Date: Mar 23, 2007

    The Tony Hawk franchise is built upon a simple though obvious precept: tricks are fun. So it will come as somewhat of a surprise to diehard fans that the series' former staple takes a backseat in Tony Hawk's Downhill Jam. The new principle is equally simple, though a bit more commonplace: speed is f...

  • The Legend of Zelda: The Twilight Prince
    Published Date: Mar 23, 2007

    When a new Zelda title comes along, a primal urge sets in amongst reviewers to put the new game in context - how does the new Zelda measure up against the first Zelda, against the best Zelda, against the most controversial Zelda? In which direction does the new Zelda point for future releases? And s...
