Trials Fusion Awesome Level Max

Trials Fusion: The Awesome Max Edition review

Cats and unicorns seem to be things that the internet were invented for and RedLynx know this which is why in their latest DLC they’ve decided to go completely mental and turn your motocross rider and bike into these two creatures. One rides atop the other brandishing a gun and it’s your job to run through the levels without toppling over as you inevitably crash a lot, instantly restart and eventually get to the end of the level not knowing quite what you just witnessed. Trials Fusion is already pretty mental but this takes it to a whole new level....

Spectra videogame

Spectra review

Spectra is one of those games that gets in your head. At first glance it looks simple, just race a spaceship along a sort of futuristic Rainbow Road whilst collecting little yellow cubes and avoiding the big purple ones that reduce your score, wreck your multiplier and can knock you off the edge into oblivion. Sounds, er, simple doesn’t it, but of course it isn’t and it’s even worse if you want to go for a high score! Make sure you boost over the chevrons and you’ll get a speed increase and increase your score for every dot you collect,...

Batman: Arkham Knight

Batman: Arkham Knight review

Batman Arkham Knight is the fourth game in the Arkham series but the third one developed by Rocksteady games and thus, is being treated like the third game in the series. The game starts with you incinerating the Joker because (spoiler alert), he died at the end of the last game, and then things all go a bit creepy as The Scarecrow has unleashed some Fear Gas into Gotham and everyone has begun to fight each other. Naturally, everyone evacuates the city which is a good excuse to make the streets sparse (such as being Christmas Eve in Arkham Origins),...

Batman Arkham Knight Launch in London

Last night saw the launch event for Batman: Arkham Knight, the latest Arkham game which sees the Caped Crusader fight a menagerie of villains who are, let’s be frank here, bloody mental. What’s also mental is an art gallery that’s free to go and see at Kachette in London’s Old Street, where contemporary artists and celebrities were given a Cape and Cowl item to decorate with their own spin on Bruce Wayne’s alter-ego. The exhibit features works from the likes of artists Pure Evil, Pam Glew and INSA, but also designs by Jonathan Ross, Noel Clarke and Eliza Doolittle. Make...

Batman: Arkham Knight Muse trailer

  Batman: Arkham Knight hits the shops today and to get everyone excited, Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment have released this brand new trailer featuring the track Mercy from Muse’s latest album, Drones. The trailer reveals some of the bad denizens of Gotham including The Riddler, Harley Quinn and Scarecrow and shows off some of the cool gameplay including swooping through above the dark streets, kicking people in the face with new dual takedowns where Robin and/or Nightwing come and have a go, and for the first time, driving the Batmobile with its new tank style combat. I can’t wait to...

E3 2015 Xbox event

Xbox E3 Press Conference

June gloom. It’s part and parcel of coming to E3 a month later than a few years back so at least it meant whilst queuing at the Galen Centre in Downtown LA I didn’t get burned! After swift entry into the venue I was greeted by the usual black and green room. Instead of multiple stages, the usual big Xbox sign on a black stage with a round stage in the centre. What could this be for? Will Usher appear in a plume of smoke to tell games journos to stand up and clap and dance again? Actually no. A...
