NHL 2K10 review

Ice Hockey’s a funny old game. Not content with playing normal hockey on a field with a ball, these guys like to slide about the ice and try to slam a puck into the net and of course have a good old scrap halfway through the game and end up in the sin bin. And, if you’re from the UK, the rules may seem a bit confusing so it’s a good thing then, at least if you’re British, NHL 2K10 presents an arcade-style experience which is simple and easy to get into. The first thing you’ll notice is the action...

Madden 10 review

I can’t say I’m a big fan of what we in the UK call American Football (or just Football to the Americans themselves). Yes I’ve played a few games in the Madden series before (most notably the original on the Commodore Amiga) but even so the series for the most past makes me go, meh. Can Madden 10 for Wii with its family friendly graphics and control system win me over? It’s time for a review of Madden 10 for Wii. If you’re unfamiliar with American Football I will try to explain the rules in the most basic fashion I...

Rabbids Go Home review

Moving away from the party mini games of its predecessors, Rabbids Go Home takes the collect ‘em up ethos of the Katamari games and puts the silly Raving Rabbids twist on it as they try to collect as much stuff as they can from the human world to make a pile big enough so they can get to the moon. All they want is a good kip so they think the best way is to run about the place with a shopping trolley and literally scare the pants off the poor stick-thin humans. This game is laugh out loud funny...

Planet 51 The Game review

I’ve been a big fan of computer generated animation since it started to appear in movies in the 1980’s. When films such as Toy Story, Shrek and Monsters Inc hit the big screen I was instantly grabbed and whisked away into my idea of heaven. After such successes from Pixar and DreamWorks at the box office it’s quite understandable that other movie studios jumped on the bandwagon and started producing CGI movies of their own. As expected, these new movies were quite poor and rather formulaic. After trying their best to copy what made Pixar’s movies great, these other studios...

Avatar The Game review

I don’t like the look of James Cameron’s Avatar movie because it’s got blue people in it. I’ve never liked The Smurfs and I don’t like tall blue people either. Anyway, people tell me it’s actually quite good so I may have to go and see it but in the meantime I’ll tell you about the game. Using the same idea but not following the plot of the film, you play as Ryder, a soldier for a military group called the RDA who are inhabiting a planet called Pandora full of viscous creatures and plants and an indigenous race of...

Formula 1 F1 2009 review

Motor Racing seems to be one of those sports that people either love or hate. Oddly enough I’m just about to contradict that by saying that I fall somewhere in-between. I used to really enjoy Formula One but I have found that my enjoyment has dwindled somewhat over the last few seasons. All that said, I do love a good racing simulation and in the past I’ve spent many an hour pretending to race a car on my TV or PC monitor, in fact I still play Live For Speed every weekend and to this day have fond memories of...
