Review: Bioshock Infinite 3rd April 2013
The truly spectacular story all the way to its astonishing conclusion, coupled with frantic and highly enjoyable gunplay raises Bioshock Infinite high above its predecessors. It tells an ambitious story, one that finds its core in great ideas and succeeds so well at it that it could leave you reeling. Read More
Review: Razer Deathstalker Ultimate gaming keyboard 30th March 2013
With a largely redundant touchscreen interface and chiclet-style keys that aren't conducive to gaming at all, the Deathstalker Ultimate's performance pales in comparison to that of its significantly cheaper competititors.Read More
Review: Sly Cooper: Thieves in Time 29th March 2013
Sly Cooper: Thieves in Time is a classic case of ‘if it’s not broken, don’t fix it’. It’s a heart-warming gift to fans of the series and also worth a try for first-timers.Read More
Review: Army of Two: The Devil’s Cartel 26th March 2013
It doesn’t do a lot (thanks to features being removed wholesale) and what it does do isn’t remarkable in any way, but it’s been a while since I’ve seen a game do average quite as well as this.Read More

Review: Starcraft 2: Heart of the Swarm 22nd March 2013
While the story won’t win many hearts, the varied missions and loads of customisation options will surely have you swarming back for more.Read More
Review: SimCity 21st March 2013
The opening few hours are fantastic, but the excitement and enthusiasm fizzles out long before you have a chance to think about a serious commitment.Read More
Review: God of War: Ascension 14th March 2013
Maybe it’s time for Kratos to hang up the blades. His story has been told, and going back to fill in the gaps now doesn’t do his legacy or that of this great series any favours.Read More
Review: Cognition – The Wise Monkey (Episode 2) 9th March 2013
If you're already invested in Cognition's plot, this is a no-brainer, but if you’ve been on the fence, there isn’t much here to sway you in the game’s direction.Read More
Review: Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance 6th March 2013
Revengeance is, if you can excuse the pun, a solid game. There's enough in the plot to keep die-hard Metal Gear fans interested and it isn't as long-winded or convoluted to turn off newbies.Read More
Review: Real Racing 3 5th March 2013
With a driving model without any real feedback and a dodgy in-game economy, Real Racing 3 isn’t the quality sequel Real Racing 2 deserved.Read More
Review: Tomb Raider 5th March 2013
Tomb Raider is not just the reimagining of Lara Croft, but also the series as a whole. This is Tomb Raider like you have never seen before – confident and bold and capable of holding its head high among the best of the genre.Read More

Review: Cognition: An Erica Reed Thriller – Episode 1: The Hangman 7th February 2013
With all its drawbacks keeping it honest, The Hangman still finishes as an enjoyable episode that gets most of the basics right.Read More
Review: The Cave 6th February 2013
The Cave is a dark, satirical, intriguing, but flawed journeyRead More

Review: Strike Suit Zero 24th January 2013
Strike Suit Zero is an enjoyable and relatively stable space combat experience, but don't expect much depth beyond the graphics and combat.Read More

Review: Playstation All-Stars Battle Royale 7th December 2012
A casual, easy to pick up, competitive approach to the fighting genre that leaves aside the high skill prerequisite, thereby making it instantly accessible.Read More

Angry Birds: Star Wars; Apocalypse Max: Better Dead than Undead; About Love, Hate and the Other Ones; Endless RoadRead More

Totem Runner, Carmageddon, Need for Speed: Most Wanted, and He-Man: The Most Powerful Game in the Universe.Read More
Review: F1 Race Stars 14th November 2012
F1 Race Stars is distinctly un-Codemasters in every aspect. The presentation, while cute, doesn’t live up to the developer’s high standards, and the lack of drifting and the poor sense of speed are criminal in a game such as this.Read More
Review: Assassin’s Creed 3 13th November 2012
Assassin’s Creed 3 isn’t quite the leap forward for the franchise that many were hoping for, but it’s a refreshing new take on an addictive formula that will entertain and thrill you even through its frequent missteps.Read More
Review: Forza Horizon 30th October 2012
Grid’s tight, intense gameplay; Test Drive Unlimited 2’s vast expanses and variety; Gran Turismo 5’s ambition; and Forza Motorsport’s depth and attention to detail - Forza Horizon manages to cram all of that into one game, and the end result is quite simply the complete racing game.Read More
