BioShock Infinite
When I was a wee lad growing up amidst the picturesque dales of Yorkshire, and by that I mean the inner-city slums of Birmingham, candy cigarettes were a real thing. The coolest kid on the playground would always be the one who could pretend to take the biggest toke on...
Gears of War: Judgment
It’s funny how different people have different takes on different franchises. For me, Gears of War has been just as much about the world, the story and its characters, than it has been about the slick third-person shooter mechanics. Take Lee – Mr Bradley – on the other hand though,...
Crysis 3
Ever since 2007, Crytek has been wowing gamers with its technical prowess in the Crysis franchise. Generally held aloft as this generation’s delectable slice of eye candy, it’s a franchise that’s effectively carried itself on visuals alone. The convoluted stories and soulless gameplay have sometimes been overshadowed by the fantastic...
Tomb Raider
If you analyse every entertainment industry out there, one thing is very clear, and that’s that each industry has its very own leading lady. The music industry’s is arguably Madonna (bear with me here, as this is all going to be rather subjective), the film industry’s is the one and...
Cutting or chopping stuff up is normally quite mundane. A real chore. It's so dull that supermarkets sell pre-sliced fruit and vegetables in bags. Slicing up carrots, apples, potatoes or whatever is pretty boring, but Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance makes chopping fun. Like, really really fun. It's so enjoyable in...
Five minutes into Aliens: Colonial Marines the game makes a mistake from which it cannot recover, a mistake so fatal that you may as well eject the disc, toss it in the bin and forget that it ever existed. Let me tell you about it.
Dead Space 3
Creeping along a creaky, decaying corridor in near-darkness, surveying the walls for the slightest flicker of a shadow, listening intently for suspicious noises... That's what made Dead Space such a fine entry in the survival horror series upon its release in 2008, but it's something that seems to be sorely...
DmC: Devil May Cry
“Not in a million years!” That's a sentiment that Devil May Cry fans might have cried out when news reached their ears that Ninja Theory had taken over their beloved franchise for a reboot at the behest of Capcom. In DmC, it's a cheeky dig at those very fans and...
Anarchy Reigns
Be warned: Anarchy Reigns possesses none of the grace and elegance of Platinum Games' Bayonetta. Nor is it as compulsive and effortlessly gratifying. What it does have is a range of brawlers tearing strips off one another, pounding heads into the ground, stomping and grinding their faces into the asphalt....
Far Cry 3
“You know what the definition of insanity is?” asks Vaas, one of Far Cry 3’s lead antagonists. “Insanity is doing the same thing over and over again, expecting shit to change.”
Dwarf tossing, synchronised horse dancing and deadly banana arrows can only mean one thing – someone has been on the wacky baccy again. That, or a new LEGO game has sailed over the horizon replete with the same trademark brand of humour that has seen us rejoice in sunbathing Stormtroopers,...
Hitman: Absolution
It was just another Saturday night, or so I thought. I’d shaved my head in anticipation for what I was hoping was another fairly simple night, one with no complications and one where I’d go unseen, like a ghost in the night. Suited up in my slick black suit with...
