I was in a large branded supermarket – whose name shall not be uttered – the other day, browsing the electrical section – you know, testing my willpower and what not. It was then when I noticed a small young child wandering aimlessly around the aisles. Desperately looking for his...
Kinectimals
As a studious and established – yes, I established my own establishment – reviewer of games of the video type, it’s important that when you’re on your next assignment, that you truly view the game from the perspective of its intended audience... It’s no use playing FIFA and moaning that...
The Sims 3
Today has been a very eventful day. This morning, I woke up, read the newspaper at breakfast, searched the internet and had a quick chat with a few friends. Then for lunch, I thought I’d venture into town, have a quick swim at the local swimming pool, buy a book,...
DJ Hero 2
The heat in this place is unbearable, as it radiates out from thousands of like-minded folks, most of whom are likely to be off their faces on whatever they can get their hands on. Despite that though, we’re all united by a common interest. A love of the music. All...
Fable
I was 8 hours into Fable III before I was abruptly reminded via a load screen that I hadn’t kicked a chicken yet. Surely that’s not right... I had dressed up as a chicken and was asked to dance around like one to lure a batch of escaped poultry back...
Dead Rising 2
If the games industry was some cheesy 1980s high school drama and I was the teacher with the tweed jacket with leather elbow protectors, smoking a pipe thinking I’m still “trendy,” and Blue Castle and Capcom’s Dead Rising 2 was the student, with the ginger hair, freckles and look of...
F1 2010
Despite Lewis Hamilton making the F1 high-life out to be all about Pussycat Dolls, multi-million sponsorship deals and honours from our gracious Queen, the action on the track and in the pit lanes is a lot less glamorous. There, the drivers are more keyed into that wavelength of perfection and...
Halo: Reach
Chances are you’ve already made your mind up about whether or not you’re going to pick up Halo: Reach on launch, but if you’re one of the seven people who is still sat on the fence, then consider this a friendly little nudge in the right direction. Yes, this is...
Say what you want about Ubisoft Montreal’s attempted reboot of the Prince of Persia franchise in 2008, but even the most staunch protestors can’t take away that it was one of the most charming and aesthetically pleasing games of that year. Devoid of challenge, maybe, but it was still one...
Alan Wake
How Remedy got from a stunning play-on-words-name like Max Payne to Alan Wake, I’ll never know. It must have been a really sleep deprived meeting when that name was given the go-ahead. Remedy wanted their new protagonist to be an everyday man, yet every time I hear his name, I...
Just Cause 2
When I was in my prime, many moons ago, strutting my stuff in the school yard and all that, I had a lady friend who I was pretty close with if you catch my drift. This is a true story, so bear with me. She was an attractive young lady...
Creating a successful foursome in video games seems to be a trickier thing than you’d have first thought. Other than the obvious Gears of War crew, which is more of two twosomes if you catch my drift, it’s a rare commodity. Compare that to other popular mediums and you’ll see...
