Uncharted 3 Drakes Deception

Uncharted 3 Drakes Deception review

The original Uncharted Drakes Fortune game took me by surprise at how good it was, Uncharted 2 Among Thieves improved upon this and the third one does what the last one did but improves upon the already great formula so let me tell you why. Once again Nate and Sully are on an adventure to find some lost treasure connected to his ancestor Sir Francis Drake and as a result find themselves caught up in all sorts of Indiana Jones mashed up with Tomb Raider high jinks which involves lots of climbing, shooting, puzzle solving and fist fighting all done...

Battlefield 3 review

So here it is. After months of hype Battlefield 3 finally comes to consoles and PC and delivers sandbox multiplayer battles in abundance. The Battlefield games have always been first-and-foremost about playing with and against real people but this time they’ve included a fully fleshed out single player campaign as well that’s bound to draw comparisons with the Call of Duty franchise. Have DICE succeeded in taking CoD’s crown? Well, based on previous Battlefield games, it’s a bit of a mixed bag. Let’s start with the best thing DICE do and that’s multiplayer. You can play over a variety of...

Devil May Cry HD Collection

Devil May Cry has become the latest gaming series to jump on the HD gravy train. Following in the footsteps of Tomb Raider, God of War and the like, the collection will be out in early 2012 for PS3 and Xbox 360 and will consist of hi-def versions of Devil May Cry, Devil May Cry 2 and Devil May Cry 3: Dante’s Awakening Special Edition. The first two are probably untouched but the last one features extra content not found in the original such as being able to play as Dante’s brother Virgil and two new game modes entitled Bloody...

Dead Rising 2 Off The Record review

You could say that zombies have a lot in common with celebrities. Most people tend to get quite ‘excited’ when they encounter a zombie, for instance, and it’s the same for many people when they meet a celebrity. Zombies feed off of living breathing humans, celebrities ‘feed’ off the same, albeit in a different way (ie: they feel the need for the attention, to be constantly reassured that they are ‘special’, rather than feeling the need to munch on living flesh!) Zombies also have an annoying habit of not staying dead, much like celebrities at the end of their natural...

Modern Warfare 3 launch date event

It seems like Activision are celebrating the release of Modern Warfare 3 in style once again by throwing a big bash on the evening of November 7th in time for the midnight launch on Tuesday November 8th. Coming to retail a full 3 days sooner than usual to hit the worldwide release, they’ve enlisted the help of UK music sensation Example and dance duo Chase & Status to play exclusive DJ sets at the official event. Example is quoted as saying “I’ve always been a massive fan of the Call of Duty franchise, ex-girlfriends have always been jealous of the...

Batman Arkham City review

I cannot tell you how excited I’ve been about Batman: Arkham City ever since I played Arkham Asylum three times to complete it 100% and get all but three of the achievements. Now it’s here but can it live up to the hype or like in music, will Bruce Wayne be struggling with his difficult 2nd album? I don’t want to give away spoilers so let me just say that for one reason or another, Bruce Wayne finds himself inside Arkham City – a sort of open prison inside Gotham City where prisoners are left to run amok and take...
