Shadows of the Damned review

Suda 51 is mental. I know because I’ve met him and I mean that in a nice way. Although I didn’t ‘get’ No More Heroes, I was much more intrigued by Shadows of the Damned when I watched the announcement trailer because I also like Quentin Tarantino and Robert Rodriguez movies. This is basically one of those movies with the gameplay mechanic of Resident Evil 4 and Silent Hill’s soundtrack and somehow it works. You play as Garcia Hotspur as you enter hell to rescue your dead girlfriend Paula from a demon called Fleming. I know, he doesn’t sound scary...

Hunted The Demons Forge

Hunted The Demons Forge review

Hunted: The Demon’s Forge offers something quite different to the usual fantasy-based game, in that it’s not an RPG set across a sprawling landscape or a straight up hack ’n’ slash title where your stab at your joypad’s buttons until your fingers bleed. Instead, they’ve taken a similar co-op gameplay mechanic to the Gears of War games and made a game that is a joy to play, despite not having quite the polish you’d see from a game made by Epic. You trundle through the dungeons and towns of the land of Kala Moor as either a female elf called...

Kinect for FIFA

EA Sports have recently announced they won’t be putting Kinect support into any FIFA game until at least FIFA 13. Their senior vice president of worldwide development Andrew Wilson has been quoted saying “building anything on a platform just for the sake of it doesn’t make sense.” And I agree – unless you want to try out that famous Cantona kung-fu kick!

Ghost Recon Future Solider

Ghost Recon Future Solider Kinect support

Some of you may have seen the Kinect demo for Ghost Recon Future Solider and now there’s an official trailer that shows off just what all that Minority Report stuff is about. The new Tom Clancy game features a weapon customisation mode called Gunsmith which lets you modify every bit of your gun and test it without a controller. Looks fancy!

Dead Island screenshots

It’s been a few months coming but Deep Silver have finally let slip more details about their upcoming first person zombie thriller; Dead Island. Now as much as I love Valve’s Left 4 Dead series, I can’t help but feel that it’s feeling a bit stale. The gameplay is a little too rigid and every new set of DLC maps feels the same as the last. So you can imagine we were quite pleased to hear that Dead Island takes L4D’s 4 player co-op and gives it a fresh new feel. Set on a fictional tropical island called Banoi; you...
