De Blob

Here’s a new one for the Wii and DS out in February next year called de Blob, and before you ask no it’s not a French remake of the monster movie or Stephen King’s Carrie. This game’s perfect for Nintendo’s consoles as you control de Blob who like a sort of space hopper round the colourless world of Chroma City. All the colour’s been drained by the INKT corporation. Say it quickly and it sounds like inked, get it? It’s basically an action puzzle game as you swing and bounce your blob around the city whilst avoiding some nasties that...

Army of Two

OK hands up if you like co-op mode in games such as Gears of War? I can’t see if you’ve actually got your hands up or not by I know I enjoyed co-op in Gears of War and that means I’ll probably like playing EA’s Army of Two as the whole game is based around this premise. Instead of co-op being a game mode in this one, it’s the actual game as you and a real life partner or adaptive AI soldier use two-man tactics in a third-person warzone to win the battles and make it out alive. The story’s...

Ratchet and Clank Future: Tools of Destruction preview

Time for a preview and I’m looking forward to the latest Ratchet and Clank game, called Future: Tools of Destruction. It’s the first next-gen title after the awesome Size Matters on the PSP and there’s going to be a whole load of new weapons and gadgets to try out and this time it’s all in glorious hi-definition and looks absolutely stunning. In this one Ratchet is still trying to trace where he came from as he’s the last of the Lombax race. Even his little robot friend Clank can’t help him when it comes to fathoming out this one. However,...

Little Big Planet preview

Here’s an interesting concept from Sony. Take a platform game, make the objective just to make your way to the end, make it really open ended and give you the chance to make your own levels and make your way through the game with your friends, giving a helping hand when you need. That game will soon be a reality. It sounds simple, looks great and is called Little Big Planet. Having seen the videos of this game, this really is a look toward what the PS3 is capable of after all the launch titles with good but not stunning...

Chronicles of Riddick

It’s just been revealed that Starbreeze’s remake of the fantastic Chronicles of Riddick for next-gen consoles won’t be coming out now until 2008. The game already looked stunning on the original Xbox so it’ll be interesting to see how it will fare on the 360 and PS3. No reason’s been given for the delay, so I’ll make one up. Er, they lost the code down the back of the sofa?

Devil May Cry 4 preview

It’s preview time and I’ve got new details on Devil May Cry 4 which have emerged since E3. This time it’s been announced it’s from the producer of the original Devil May Cry and Resident Evil 4 and it’s bound to be good as 7 million people who bought the game series so far around the world can’t be wrong. Once again, you don’t only get to play as Dante but as a new leading man with a few new moves up his devilish sleeves. This time you can also play as a character called Nero. No, he’s not a...
