Homefront

Homefront review

What the world probably doesn’t need now is another FPS. However, they do seem to be popular so now it’s time for THQ to have a bash in 2011 with Homefront. Instead of playing through historic battles, this one gives us a ‘what if’ scenario set in 2027 with a unified Korea invading the United States and reducing it to rubble. Playing as one of the resistance it’s up to you to save the ones you love and fight your corner to make what little difference you can. I’ve already read a few other reviews of Homefront and I actually...

Crysis 2 review

After playing through the somewhat tongue-in-cheek Bulletstorm, Crysis 2 comes as something of a culture shock as it’s the complete opposite. This is one very serious first-person shooter full of gravitas and without an ounce of humour. That’s not to say it’s not impressive though, because it is. Here’s my take on the single player action. Before I get to the story let me just say that this is one of the best looking FPSs I’ve ever played on a console. On the PS3 the game looks almost photo-realistic when your submarine is hit by a mysterious missile which floods...

Dragon Age 2 review

I never played the original Dragon Age and I’m not really into fantasy role-playing games. The Mass Effect games get a massive thumbs-up from me because of the great characters and sci-fi setting so I wasn’t really that excited about fighting loads of mythical monsters with swords and magic. Luckily, the game’s actually very playable. Told as a series of flashbacks, you play as a male or female character called Hawke as either a warrior, rogue or mage. You and your sibling begin the game fleeing the town of Lothering as you flee an army or Darkspawn Hurlocks. After learning...

Bulletstorm review

There’s been a massive online presence in the run up to Bulletstorm’s launch and it’s all around the ‘kill with skill’ mechanic that supposedly changes the way you play a first-person shooter. Well, after playing it and completing it I’m happy to say that it is a very different FPS experience compared with say Killzone 3 which has you hiding behind cover for fear that if you step into gunfire you’ll instantly die. You play as drunken space pirate Grayson Hunt who, along with his cyborg mate Ishi crash lands on a planet full of other miscreants and mutants. This...
