Still, this is an accomplished strategy title on whichever format you decide to play it on. The attention to detail is to be applauded and the wealth of options on offer is at once bewildering and admirable. We just wish that we had the attention span, wherewithal and patience to...

Assault on Dark Athena is not only a uniformly great first-person shooter; it also represents fantastic value for money, especially if you happened to have missed the gravel-voiced one’s initial foray onto the original Xbox and PC. Even if you’re among the many who previously played the original game back...

Shamefully brief and offering almost no replay value beyond gathering collectible scraps of paper to unlock perfunctory character skins and concept art, Wanted represents terrible value for money. You’ll undoubtedly enjoy playing thorough once, but only the truly dedicated will feel compelled to return for seconds. It’s a pleasant enough...

At the end of the day, Ninja Blade may not be the biggest or brightest game to hit the 360 scene lately, nor even necessarily the best, but it’s still worth getting. The combination of combo-slash and QTE action, the regular boss fights, and just the sheer OTT nature of...

The Last Remnant is an RPG in it for the long haul with hours upon hours of gameplay buried deep inside, providing you can overlook the occasionally queasy dialogue and confusing inventory interface. Square Enix deliver not the most original of plots but the world is chock full of vibrant...

FEAR 2 is not only a vast improvement over its predecessor; it’s an enormously superior first-person shooter, full-stop. Monolith have refined all of the elements that made FEAR such a great game to begin with, learning from their mistakes and building upon the formula to create the finest horror FPS...

If you haven’t played Mirror’s Edge on PC or console yet, then the choice is simple: get it on PC. It’s a more wholesome and enjoyable experience. So while the game itself hasn’t improved, our grip on it has, and we love it even more.

The Lord of the Rings: Conquest is a good but flawed effort from Pandemic Studios and has its visual presentation at times working with and then against it. Gameplay design and AI are the biggest shortcomings likely to infuriate at times but beneath those is a game relishing in...

No matter what you say, Left 4 Dead is an excellent title. It gets everything right. It’s simple enough for anyone to play, unique enough for everyone to enjoy, and intelligent enough for no one to get tired of. Isn’t that the game we’ve been asking for?

There is unfortunately a fair bit of wasted potential in this game, but that’s not to say that Mount & Blade isn’t good. For those who are more into the ‘Indie’ PC Gaming scene, then this is probably one of the better titles out there. Even those who are more...

As we’ve already said then, this is only worth buying for an easily pleased, myopic, die-hard Madagascar fan or if there are no other games available. Buy Kung Fu Panda instead. Can we go now?

Kick out the jams as we look at Guitar Hero: World Tour!
