Mini Ninjas

Mini Ninjas review

Just because a game’s for kids doesn’t mean it has to be hurriedly put together. Luckily, it seems that quite a bit of care and attention has gone into making Mini Ninjas which means kids are going to have a fair amount of fun with it. In the game, the land has been ravaged by violent storms and the leader of the town has sent his best ninjas one by one off to solve the problem. The problem is, they never came back so it’s up to Hiro, the youngest of the ninjas, to find his buddies and stop the...

Batman Arkham Asylum review

So after a disappointing delay, Batman: Arkham Asylum has finally sneaked onto the shelves so listen up to find out if it’s any good. The game begins with Batman bringing the Joker into Arkham Asylum and then he conveniently and easily escapes further into Arkham Island to cause mayhem as he formulates a toxin to turn normal goons into super soldiers. So Brucey baby swoops from ledge and kicks and punches people in the face to put a stop to it. Combat is a simple matter of punch and counter buttons being pressed at the right time. Build up a...

Flashback a while and we see Lara diving for treasure in warm oceans and finding out some interesting facts about Thor’s hammer. From there she travels around the...

Wolfenstein review

Wolfenstein 3D was one of the first, if not THE first, of the First-Person Shooters, a forerunner of the better known Doom franchise which was wowong gamers way back in the mists of time in an era when videogame consoles didn’t have the processing power to run a nuclear reactor, and the kids who played on them (and it WAS kids back then) were generally looked on the same way anyone who works in the IT industry is these days, ie: as a bit nerdy. It inspired a generation of developers, caused controversy with its use of Nazi imagery, but...

Madden NFL 10

Madden NFL 10 review

Another year sees another roll-out of all EA’s sports franchises such as Tiger Woods PGA Tour 10 and Madden NFL 10 is no different. Here we see a couple of new gameplay innovations along with the ones which worked from previous years. First of all, let me say that the game’s presentation is fantastic. It really feels like you’re watching a football game on a Sunday and the player models and graphics make for a really great game atmosphere. It’s a shame the commentary doesn’t shape up so well but to be honest you can choose to ignore that, much...
