There’s no denying that the FIFA franchise has taken the crown over the past three years or so when it comes to which is the best football game. I’ve actually been annoyed at how PES has stood still over the years but finally, Konami have completely overhauled the game to make it a much better game. And because it plays more like FIFA, PES fans may perversely not like these changes even though in my opinion they’re for the better. Play an exhibition match and straight away you’ll notice the great player models and improved presentation. Everything looks better and...
The first Dead Rising was released during the early days of the Xbox 360 and although it had lots of promise, ultimately it didn’t deliver – at least for me. Sure you could have lots of fun killing the zombies in a variety of ways but the combat system was flawed and the timed plot events were something that really grated. I was hoping they would do away with these in the sequel but they’re back again, only this time far easier to manage. There’s also 3 save slots for you to save to as well so if you do...
Fable 3 is out next month and it has some rather odd Fable 3 achievements for you to earn. Among those listed are ‘Long Distance Relationship’ for marrying another Xbox Live user, ‘Cross-Dimensional conception’ for then having a baby with them and ‘Henry VIII’ for getting married six times, then killing two of your wives. It certainly puts chicken kicking into perspective. Here’s an A to Z Fable 3 achievement list:- Adopt Or Die – Adopt a child. 5 achievement points And So It Begins – Win the support of the Dwellers. 20 achievement points Archmage – Cast all 15...

Downloadable versions of their greatest hits are available everywhere, from XBLA to PSN to Virtual Console to iTunes to Steam to I don’t even know what’s left. You can also pop into a toy shop and get a Plug ‘n’ Play joystick or a handheld Mega Drive to play wherever you like....
The first Kane and Lynch game was a bit of a disappointment really. The controls weren’t great, it screamed for a co-op mode but didn’t have one and felt disjointed. This sequel aims to fix all that and in some ways it does and some ways it doesn’t. So years later, Lynch is living in Shanghai and Kane comes to see him for one last money making exercise – an arms deal. This soon goes wrong when they accidentally kill a very powerful kingpin’s daughter and the whole of China seems to be after them. Cue lots of running and...
