Metro 2033 review

Based on the book by Dmitry Glukhovsky, Metro 2033 sees you wandering round the wastelands and underground system of Moscow as you fight for survival against some rather nasty mutants. You may immediately draw comparisons with STALKER but this isn’t an open-world affair and very much a scripted FPS more comparable to Half-Life 2.

The atmosphere and sound...

God of War 3 review

Apparently, God of War III finishes right where god of War II ended. I don’t know because the second game was far too long and hard and I lost interest before I could finish it. Anyway, Kratos is climbing up mount Olympus on Gaia’s shoulder as he goes after Zeus for a final time to get his revenge. Of course, things don’t go quite according to plan and once again Kratos falls into Hades, has to find a way out and kick the living crap out of lots of enemies he didn’t quite kill properly last time around. If you’re...

Perfect Dark

Perfect Dark review

I can distinctly remember taking afternoon off from work at my first job in order to play Perfect Dark on release day back in June 2000. Built upon a much improved engine from Rare’s previous title GoldenEye; Perfect Dark was a very successful attempt to outdo Valve’s Half Life on inferior gaming hardware. So almost ten years later the same game has arrived on XBLA with updated visuals and online play. Let’s find out more in a review of Perfect Dark for XBLA.
