Whether it is superheroes, super villains, animals, whatever, I guarantee you will have had these conversations. So when Hollywood throws some of these fights your way you think “You awesome mind-reading film type [...]

This month’s Game Plan feature should actually be called March Madness, as it’s absolutely packed with quality titles all vying for your hard earned cash. Battlefield Bad Company 2 from Electronic Arts kicks the month of strong with that mad cap bunch of renegade soldiers returning to our consoles. Whether the game will live up [...]

On the 19th of February I went along to a private event hosted by Koch Media for Prison Break: The Conspiracy, a game based around Season 1 of the hit U.S. TV show from Fox Networks.
Now if you are not familiar with Prison Break the TV show then let me give you a brief run [...]

It was with great anticipation that I headed to London this week to be able to get some hands-on time with Remedy Entertainment’s highly anticipated title Alan Wake, set to release on Xbox 360 in just a few months. Originally announced back at E3 in 2005 the game has been in development for six years [...]

If there is any game to compare to popping off B-Movie nasties over a weekend then I haven’t heard about it… well, not back in the days of Zombies Ate My Neighbors. A classic top-down shooter for the SNES that took players to a cartoon horror movie nightmare that is overly addictive.
It used to be [...]

Y’know what game designers strive for? They long for the day when a user can fire up a video game, and navigate menus relying on symbols or images alone. No clunky text saying ‘Single Player’ ‘Two Player’ etc, just representations of these words that are universally recognised.
Games designers the world over are of [...]

I’ve seen the phenomenal opening cutscene to Square Enix’s latest Final Fantasy title plenty of times now, having imported the Japanese PlayStation 3 version released back in December. However, this time around it was an entirely different experience for me. Not only was I seeing this entire opening section with English voice-over for the first [...]

As we enter into 2010, which is surely set to be an exciting year for owners of any of the current generation consoles, I still feel that one overarching issue still remains within the console market, that of the ‘Red Ring of Death.’

Modern Warfare 2 – it is still absorbing most of my game time. I’ve got a stack of 360 games (Xbox 360, not an actual stack of 360 games) to get through, but every time I sit down to work through them, the lure of Modern Warfare 2 draws me back. There is [...]

So you’ve played Bayonetta and cartwheeled your leather clad goddess to victory, ridden your horse through the apocalypse in Darksiders and now you may just be getting to grips with M.A.G. and deciding which faction to support. Yet, February is upon us already and and how the hell are you going to find the time [...]

Last week saw me finally land a copy of Left 4 Dead 2. After the roaring success of the first installment I was eagerly looking forward to the new characters, campaigns, special infected zombies and weapons (Chainsaws and baseball bats!). To a certain degree my expectations were met. However I’ve got a [...]
