Sonic The Hedgehog 4 Episode 1

Sonic The Hedgehog 4 Episode 1 review

Sonic Unleashed. Sonic and the Secret Rings. Sonic the Hedgehog 2006. I apologise for the bad language but I wanted to make sure my point was understood. The Sonic games of recent years have not exactly been charming, which explains why Sega have looked back to his glory days, the time of Sonics 1-3 and Sonic & Knuckles, for inspiration for their latest 2D platformer. They’ve even called it Sonic the Hedgehog 4 in an attempt to make us all forget. “What Sonic Unleashed?” they wink at us. Sonic 4 Episode One is an experiment in combining the greatest elements...

Guitar Hero Warriors of Rock

Guitar Hero Warriors of Rock review

Since Guitar Hero first came out on the PS2 it’s gone through a number of changes. Since Guitar Hero 2 every song now uses all the assets from the original track, drums, bass and vocals all come together for four-player action, they’ve dabbled with guitar duels and battles with famous guitarists such as Slash and of course there is online play and leaderboards for you to try and grind your way to the top of the last by proving you have the best ‘axe’ skills. Warriors of Rock takes a refreshing approach and uses a sort of fantasy role-playing story...

And so they embark on an adventure to find her village and stop the...

Castlevania Lords of Shadow

Castlevania Lords of Shadow review

Over the past couple of years I’ve really enjoyed the recent side-scrolling Castlevania games on the DS and this latest title brings the series into full 3D in the form of a 3rd-person action adventure. Even though it bears the Castlevania name it’s interesting that the game was just titled Lords of Shadow when it was announced in 2008 and that’s probably why it doesn’t actually feel like a Castlevania game. Set in a monster and demon-ravaged Middle Ages, you play as Gabriel Belmont as you travel the land and attempt to send these hellish creatures back where they came...
