As you hurtle through a drug cartel owned village, guns blazing with your squad sweeping alongside you providing cover fire, suddenly a technical van comes screaming around the corner. “Take out the driver,” your buddy Woods screams and you duly oblige, sending the truck hurtling into a nearby wall and...
F1 Race Stars
Formula One is a pretty serious sport, so the cartoon stylings of F1 Race Stars is something that's surprisingly out of the ordinary. And although the kart racing sub genre has taken a variety of shapes from the grandaddy of them all, Super Mario Kart and the excellent Crash Team...
Need for Speed: Hot Pursuit was a fantastic game. Tearing across the winding desert roads of Seacrest County was always an adrenaline-fuelled treat, and having races laid out for you at your fingertips made the whole thing straightforward, intuitive and low on frustration. Hot Pursuit is a tough act to...
Halo 4
You’ve only got to look at the sales numbers for the Halo franchise to know one thing: Halo fans love Master Chief. Halo 1, 2 and 3 sold 6, 8 and 10 million units respectively, while out of the four games since, only one could reach those dizzy heights, shifting...
Assassin's Creed III
“History is our playground”, Ubisoft has repeatedly claimed in the run up to Assassin's Creed III's launch, and if that is indeed the case then boy, is it one bloody big playground. Not only is there a lot of history to take in on this particular playground, but the game...
007 Legends
It must have all been a dream. As we all slept, maybe fitfully as a result of that last crushing defeat on FIFA, someone re-launched Bond, made him into a more brooding, more real, version of his old self. Maybe they called the film Casino Royale, you know like that...
Inspired by true events is an interesting strapline, especially when you watch it appear time and time again before each chapter of the bewildering, high octane, do or die story in Medal of Honor: Warfighter. Was a watery boat escape through a flooded town, as you bombard foes on partially...
Dance Central 3
Kinect was billed as motion control with a hardcore twist, meant to appeal to those staunch gamers who were insolently opposed to getting off the couch and flailing their limbs to accomplish tasks that had previously required a touch of a button. While Kinect has never quite delivered on that...
Forza Horizon
When is a door not a door? When it’s ajar! DO HO HO! It’s an old (lame) joke but one that is perfectly apt here. So when is Forza not Forza? When it’s Forza Horizon. Playground Games has taken the tried and tested formula of Forza Motorsport and shaken off...
XCOM: Enemy Unknown
One of the most dangerous things you can do in the games industry is take a beloved franchise from the 90s and “reboot” it. It’s nearly as dangerous as posting on a forum populated by “hardcore” gamers saying that you think Call of Duty is an innovative game. Preying on...
Fable: The Journey
Fable: The Journey represents Lionhead at the very peak its powers. It’s a sumptuously produced game with a wonderful, affecting story bursting with characters you’ll come to love, set across a beautifully realised world. Very few studios are capable of crafting an experience so skillfully.
NBA 2K13
As sports franchises go, NBA 2K is utterly unchallenged, with EA giving up on its rival NBA Live series not once, but twice having once been the basketball game of choice, years ago. Year on year, NBA 2K builds upon increasingly accomplished foundations, growing into what has inarguably become the...
