Transformers The Game review

So the Transformers movie is almost upon us and the film reviewers are basically saying the film looks great but the story’s a bit of a clichéd mess. Fair enough, I’m sure it’s a treat for the eyes anyway so I’m going to go and see it. As for the game, that’s another story. Let me review it for you now and you can make up your mind on whether to play it or not. What you get with Transformers The Game is a slightly open-ended game world with a story to lpay through similar to Spider-Man, Hulk Ultimate Destruction...

Silent Hill V

So Silent Hill is coming back to haunt us in the new year and this time it’s all next-gen so expect even scarier graphics and proper images of terror that’ll scare you well after you’ve switched off you console. Available for Xbox 360 and PS3, the game follows Alex Shepherd, a soldier returning home from an overseas tour of duty. Alex has taken compassionate leave after his younger brother Joshua has gone missing. At first, Alex goes looking for him in the small town of Shepherd’s Glen before being transported to the misty empty streets of Silent Hill with strange...

Overlord review

Here is a review of Overlord from Codemasters, which to begin with, I got confused with Archlord, their free to play MMORPG but that’s another story. In this one you play the Overlord who has been summoned by lots of evil little minions to be their lord and master. You then go about the world being evil and destroying everything in your wake like a good little tyrant. When I say evil, I don’t mean in the way of say Hitler, we’re talking more ugly sister in Cinderella. Believe me, the proverbial tongue in this game is firmly in its...

Buu Buu Cocoreccho

Sony have announced a version of LocoRoco is coming to the PS3. Titled Buu Buu Cocoreccho, the game will use the tilt function of the Sixaxis controller to move the world so you can guide your little smiling blobs through the level and into the goal at the other end. It’ll be coming to you over the PlayStation Network so hopefully this means we’ll all be able to play it sooner rather than later.

Slimline PSP

Its just been announced that Sony will be releasing a new slimline PSP in September in Japan, with the US and European versions following shortly after. The new handheld will be a third lighter and have a TV out socket so you can play games on your big screen and watch UMD movies. You’ll have to buy a special cable though which should set you back about 10 quid.

Pokemon Diamond Pearl review

Time for our second review and this one’s not out for a couple of weeks but I couldn’t wait so got it from the States. It’s the new Pokémon games this time called Diamond and Pearl and once again, you run around a little made-up world looking for wild Pokemon, battling other trainers and trying to stop an evil team who are up to no good. This time the land’s called Sinnoh, and the evil team which must be stopped is Team Galactic. You’d think by now people would be getting tired of Pokemon but even now it’s selling better...
