Splatter House release date

Last night I went to the Metal Hammer Golden Gods music awards and Namco were sponsoring the event with their remake of the 80s classic Splatterhouse. We got VIP access and a presentation on a boat where we also got to try the game out as well. In the game you play as Rick who must rescue his girlfriend from the evil Dr West. You don a magical mask that makes you all pumped (wish it was that easy) and then go about defeating all the monsters and experiments across lots of 3D and 3D levels. As you kill the...

Red Dead Redemption review

It’s easy to just label Red Dead Redemption as GTA 4 on horseback but actually it’s more than that and thankfully presents an original concept in an age where the market’s full of shooters, racing games and family titles. So, in this Western you play as John Marston, a man who’s trying to be good after leaving a gang of naughty people. He’s come to the Wild West to confront the gang leader and stop him before he goes after John’s wife and kids. After being shot at the start of the game he’s taken in by some of the...
