Bulletstorm
If we’re being honest for a second, we were surprised. We thought this was going to be an ok game, gimmicky, but ok. Nothing special… boy were we wrong. Considering the sleuth of military shooters we’ve had recently (not that there’s necessarily anything wrong with them), this is an incredibly...
Magicka
The fact that, at the time of writing, Magicka had surpassed 150,000 sales, is just a testament to how fun and addictive the core game really is. Now that most of the major hiccups out of the way, this is definitely a must-buy game, but it really needs to be...
Tron: Evolution
There is sense of slight disappointment that permeates this review - it’s true, we did come out of this slightly deflated, but that’s not to say this isn’t a good game. Propaganda have done a really good job in crafting something that not only achieves its main purpose, but...
Fallout: New Vegas
Despite minor disappointments however, this is a very engaging title. Those who missed some of the more trademark Fallout elements in Fallout 3 should be somewhat satiated in this game, as Obsidian really bring that flair to the franchise once again. The glitches, whilst highly annoying, will hopefully be patched...
R.U.S.E.
There are strategy games that push the envelope more than R.U.S.E. does, there’s no denying that, but Ubisoft’s latest offering is still an enjoyable game. We think ultimately there’s going to be less ‘subterfuge’ and out-manoeuvring then the developers hope for, given this titles pre-disposition towards blitzkrieg tactics, but there’s...
Mount & Blade: Warband
It’s like we said in our preview - Warband is a huge improvement over the original game, but we’d have to wait for a sequel in order to see anything really new and exciting (aside from multiplayer I guess)… the only problem is though, is that this IS the sequel,...
Star Trek Online
Getting your first Tier 2 ship does feel good, and it handles like a dream.
The Saboteur
The Saboteur can be both addictive and engaging, but also rather stale, all at the same time. Serious issues such as the nature of a resistance campaign, terror tactics, victory at all costs, etc… are fairly buried underneath the game’s lighter tones. Still, it’s in line with Pandemic’s other works...
Dragon Age: Origins
All in all, Dragon age is a triple A dark fantasy bonanza. PC gamers will want to hear more about the modding community, and whilst Bioware have released developer grade tools, it’s going to take a while before things really get going. What kind of content will be released is...
Tropico 3
Tropico 3 is available on PC and 360. Whilst there are no major differences between versions, city management games like this are another genre that may not gel too well on consoles when it comes to handling. If you’re considering getting the 360 version, stay tuned for our 360 review...
Resident Evil 5
It’s hard to say which version is superior, although if you like your visuals, the PC version is definitely worth checking out if you’ve got the hardware. Those worried about their ability to even get the game running on their rig should consider checking out the benchmark tool that was...
