FEAR 2 Project Origin

FEAR 2 Project Origin review

I know Project Origin’s been out for a while now but I never got round to playing it and things are quiet in the summer months so here goes my review. Set just before the end of the first game, this tale of terror and gunplay begins in an office block as you try to extract Professor Aristide from an apartment. During your mission the massive explosion is seen which wipes out the crew in the first game and you’re then involved in experiments, flashbacks, lots of slow-mo shooting action and of course Alma pops up now and again to...

Call of Juarez Bound in Blood

Call of Juarez Bound in Blood review

Bound in Blood is a prequel to Call of Juarez and this time the wrong reverend introduces us to two brothers, Ray and Thomas McCall. The game begins with a stand-off between them over a woman and then flashes back to an adventure where they soon leave the Confederate Army and go on their own quest in Mexico whilst of course shooting everyone around them. Think of the game as a bit like Call of Duty, in that it features a strong storyline and plenty of set pieces where the aim of the game is to shoot everyone shooting back...

GI Joe The Rise of Cobra

GI Joe The Rise of Cobra review

Anyone old enough to remember the G.I. Joe cartoon and toys? Well if you do, you may or may not be excited about the new movie. This is the game of the movie of the cartoon and as you’d expect it’s actually a load of watered-down rubbish so I’ll be quick. As you can see, the game almost plays like Commando or Contra in that you just run into the screen and shoot everything in front of you. This wouldn’t be so bad if the game played like Gears of War but it actually plays a bit like the 80s...

Fallout 3 Mothership Zeta review

Mothership Zeta is the latest expansion for Fallout 3 and this one’s a very different proposition from what you’ve played before. As usual the expansion starts with a distress signal and this one points you towards the crashed alien spacecraft. This time though, you get caught in a tractor beam and are abducted by some very clichéd looking greys. What follows is a strangely linear experience battling with just aliens and a couple of other creatures that have been beamed aboard, but it’s a lot of fun. You get to meet other abductees who help you complete some of your...
