Gran Turismo 5 review

I’ve never been into the Gran Turismo games. If I want to drive a car I’ll get in an actual car and drive it. I’m pitched firmly in the Burnout frame of mind where racing’s all about ludicrously high speed, drifting round corners and then smashing someone out of the way into a ditch. It’s not realistic, but after all I play games for escapism. Right, rant out of the way, what does GT5 have to offer after 6 years of development? Well, it looks nice – very nice indeed. If you’re driving one of the 200 premium cars you’ll...

Review of James Bond Blood Stone

I thought it was strange that we had a brand new Goldeneye game last month for the Nintendo Wii. I can quite understand if James Bond Blood Stone for PS3 is equally confusing.

According to Wikipedia Bruce has written/co-written three...

But just a few months later the fuss had died down, in fact, people were complaining about the buggy and hacked multiplayer mode and a single player campaign that was too short. Perhaps the whole Infinity Ward and Activision fall out distracted things a bit, or maybe it was that the two DLC packs were overpriced and didn’t deliver...

Need for Speed Hot Pursuit review

For me the Need for Speed games have always been about the Hot Pursuit side of things ever since I played it on the PSOne and really enjoyed chasing down racers as a cop or trying to get away, avoiding helicopters, road blocks and spike traps. All the other spin-offs haven’t really done it for me so I was excited to play this latest Hot Pursuit title, especially as it’s developed by Criterion, the same people behind the sublime Burnout games. As you’d expect this game’s less about simulation and more about hurtling around Seacrest County at a frightening pace....
