Just Cause 2 review

Let me say straight off the bat that Just Cause 2 is what the original game should have been. When I saw the original demo at E3 a few years ago I was blown away, only to be disappointed when I played the full game. This sequel however is a lot more fun, has more variety and has the winning formula of the parachute and grappling hook which I’ll come to in a minute. So once again you play as Rico Rodriquez and this time you’re working for an agency which must cause as much chaos on the East-Asian island...

Metro 2033 review

Based on the book by Dmitry Glukhovsky, Metro 2033 sees you wandering round the wastelands and underground system of Moscow as you fight for survival against some rather nasty mutants. You may immediately draw comparisons with STALKER but this isn’t an open-world affair and very much a scripted FPS more comparable to Half-Life 2. There are moments when you’re wandering the tunnels alone or with a helping hand, and also parts where you explore the Metro stations and get to buy new weaponry and listen in on some of the NPCs going about their daily business. The atmosphere and sound...

Perfect Dark review

I can distinctly remember taking afternoon off from work at my first job in order to play Perfect Dark on release day back in June 2000. Built upon a much improved engine from Rare’s previous title GoldenEye; Perfect Dark was a very successful attempt to outdo Valve’s Half Life on inferior gaming hardware. So almost ten years later the same game has arrived on XBLA with updated visuals and online play. Let’s find out more in a review of Perfect Dark for XBLA. Perfect Dark is a futuristic first person shooter that was originally released back on the Nintendo 64....

Super Street Fighter IV release date

Last year’s Street Fighter 4 from Capcom was huge hit with the fans and the gaming press, scoring an impressive score of 93 on Metacritic. Despite the many Street Fighter games over the years, Street Fighter II is typically considered the best of the bunch. So when Street Fighter IV was revealed to be pretty much just a 3D remake of Street Fighter 2, understandably most people were happy. So now in Super Street Fighter 4 Capcom present some new characters, a totally revamped combo system and a selection of new games modes. The Super Street Fighter IV release date...
