Disneyland Adventures Xbox 360 Review
11th December 2011 - “Dad, can we go to Disneyland.” Pretty common question in a house with kid’s right? Actually, it’s a pretty common question I still hear from my mother and sisters as well. Thankfully the last time my son asked me I could respond with “Yeah alright mate” and just turned on...
Need for Speed: The Run Xbox 360 Review
11th December 2011 - Once one of the most respected and beloved racing franchises of all time, Need for Speed certainly has a rich history. But in recent years, constant annual releases and attempted new directions have really divided audiences. The Run is one of the most bold and unique Need...
WWE ’12 Xbox 360 Review
27th November 2011 - Can you smell what THQ is cooking? That’s right; another year, another wrestling title, with more eager little Jimmy’s rushing out in hopes of finally having something that tops No Mercy. And for the most part THQ and the WWE really hit the peoples elbow on this one, there...
HALO: Combat Evolved Anniversary Xbox 360 Review
19th November 2011 - I've been a fan of the Halo series since I played the first game as a kid, in a living room, surrounded by pizza boxes, empty Coke bottles and friends. To me, there's never been anything quite like the Halo series when it comes to fun with mates, and Anniversary is no...
Saints Row: The Third Xbox 360 Review
19th November 2011 - Saints Row originally started as an open-world crime-sim not too dissimilar of the popular (and genre-defining) Grand Theft Auto series. With the first entry in the Saints Row franchise sticking fairly close to its GTA influence (although with its own unique flare), it was...
Lord of the Rings: War in the North Xbox 360 Review
19th November 2011 - Licensed games are an iffy thing in our fine industry. Some are good (Arkham Asylum anyone?), while most are utter garbage (essentially ever movie tie-in ever made…) and not worthy of the plastic they come boxed in. Lord of the Rings is one the luckier players in this...
The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim Xbox 360 Review
17th November 2011 - Ladies and gentlemen, have you ever wanted something more? Something more than your boring 9 to 5 grind? Something more than getting stuck in traffic on the way to work every morning, or having a detailed routine to ensure you wake up at the right time? To put it bluntly;...
Battlefield 3 Xbox 360 Review
17th November 2011 - Over the last few years, Digital Illusions CE, commonly known as DICE, have continued to deliver gamers quality products with the Battlefield title aimed towards the console market. Named the Bad Company series, these games were massive critical and commercial successes,...
360 XBLA Review - Daytona USA
15th November 2011 - "Daaaaytoooona!" Ah the memories of being down at my latest TimeZone Arcade in the 90’s! You’d walk into the Arcade and the biggest feature would be 8 Daytona machines all lined up. So much money put into the machines but it was well worth it. Fast Forward to 2011...
Sesame Street: Once Upon a Monster Xbox 360 Review
12th November 2011 - This is the review lalala (sorry got distracted by the music! Lol) of Sesame Street: Once Upon A Monster. The game your Kinect loving younger brother/sister or child has been waiting for, so toss out the Wii cause they won’t be playing with that again. Double Fine didn’t...
Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 Xbox 360 Review
12th November 2011 - By now, we all know what Call of Duty is – it’s the biggest force in the gaming industry, each year setting and breaking new records and numbers with one of the largest fan bases of any digital media franchise – and we all either love it or hate it. It's easy to see...
Ace Combat: Assault Horizon Xbox 360 Review
2nd November 2011 - Ace Combat, previously known as Air Combat, is one of the most prolific flight series in gaming, with 12 instalments donning the name. Always keeping up with the latest trends and technicalities, Ace Combat games are the essentially the benchmark for action/slight-sim...
Forza Motorsport 4 Xbox 360 Review
20th October 2011 - My interest for Forza Motorsport 4 has been a tad shaky over the development, since the appalling re-release and cash grab with the Forza 3 “Ultimate Edition”. However there's some very good news here though – Turn 10 has worked some Racing Sim magic with Forza Motorsport...
360 XBLA Review - Mercury Hg
15th October 2011 - Mercury HG is a XBLA puzzle game that fuses music, time trials, frustration and science. Fortunately, it’s not as I feared and an attempt at teaching you the periodic table, but Mercury HG can teach you that a solid balance between patience and speed is the key to life’s...
F1 2011 Xbox 360 Review
14th October 2011 - F1 2011, the sequel to F1 2010 (oho, I did some digging here!) is a sports-style game. It's not really about being an ambassador to those uninterested in racing or Formula One, and it's definitely not interested in introducing people to games. But these aren't necessarily...
