Fifa 08

Fifa 08 review

So another year comes along and Electronic Arts release another version of their long-running football game with next year’s 08 stamped on the front. This being the first proper game for the next-gen consoles, it should be better, but is it? Well I’m about to tell you. To be honest, the main game feels very similar to Fifa 2007 in the way it plays. The menus are almost identical, the nice touch at the start screen where you get to have a bit of a kick about with Ronaldinho’s still there, and picking up and playing the actual game proper...

Kane and Lynch: Dead Men

Here is a review of a game which intrigued me last month when I saw a poster for it when I was absolutely drenched standing in a field in Stafford for the V Festival. It’s Kane & Lynch Dead Men. The poster shows a guy that looks like he’d kill you if you bumped into him in the street with a plaster over his nose and an older chap with a balding mullet and a shotgun. It reminded me of a Tarantino film so I thought I’d check it out a bit more for you guys and report back. Developed...

Juiced 2 review

Just when we all thought people had stopped making street racing games, Juiced games have just decided to release Juiced 2 Hot Import Nights onto the next-gen consoles so we can all mod our cars within an inch of their lives and drift them around slippery streets at night looking cool and shouting things like ‘Yo Dude, Innit’ out of the window. The end result of this one is an improved game over the first one with some added game features and ideas. It’s far from perfect though and I’ll explain why. First of all, they’ve removed the calendar racing...

FEAR 3

Jericho

I thought I’d make you guys aware of a new squad-based horror FPS coming out from Codemasters called Jericho. That’s if you haven’t got it on your radar already. I guess Codemasters are a bit fed up of being remembered for Colin McRae, Brian Lara Cricket and other safe games like Treasure Island Dizzy and wanted to make a truly adult game full of gore. You know, something you’ll have to play wearing bicycle clips to avoid making a mess of your carpet. This is Clive Barker’s Jericho to be precise and if you’ve ever seen his Hellraiser movie you’ll...

Tiger Woods PGA Tour 08 review

So another year and another version of Tiger Woods PGA Tour comes out of the labs at EA and another horde of eager gamers go to the shops to buy what is essentially, the same game as last year with a few tweaks and improvements added. This year though, the improvements are significant, especially on the 360 with Xbox Live and the ability to load your face into the game, more on that in a second. To anyone unfamiliar, this golf franchise has been running for as long as I can remember and you can choose to play through a...
