Power Gig Rise of the Six String

Power Gig Rise of the Six String release date

You know it’s true, playing Rock Band or Guitar Hero is hardly the same as using a real instrument. Sure it’s a hell of a lot easier and in the short term much more fun, but listen up, when you’re older you’ll wish you could play a real guitar instead of a plastic toy. Cute girls don’t throw their knickers at Guitar Hero or Rock Band players; that is one thing I can promise you right now. PowerGig for Xbox 360 is different because it comes with real electric instruments guitar. For under $250 the Power Gig Rise of the...

Final Fantasy The 4 Heroes of Light

Final Fantasy The 4 Heroes of Light release date

Even though I’ve never been the biggest Final Fantasy fan in the world, there’s no way I can deny the amazing worldwide success the games have had over the years. The popularity of the Final Fantasy remakes on DS recently proved to Square Enix that the audience was ready and willing for a brand new entry into the series. Step in Final Fantasy: The 4 Heroes of Light, the first original Final Fantasy title for Nintendo DS. If you’ve been waiting for a true turn based RPG with random battles then what are you waiting for? A great single player...

DefJam Rapstar

Def Jam Rapstar release date

Many music genres have been explored in the Guitar Hero and Rock Band franchises but one that has been lacking for most people so far is music from the Rap scene. That isn’t to say Rap songs have never featured in those game series but if you wanted a dedicated and deep Hip Hop experience then you would have been left lacking. Konami are here to fill the void with Def Jam Rapstar for Xbox 360, Sony PS3 and Nintendo Wii later this year. Here are just some of the exciting features you can look forward to with Def Jam...

Lego Harry Potter Years 1 to 4

Lego Harry Potter Years 1 to 4 release date

Many people thought that Lego Star Wars was just a one off novelty for kids, who’d have thought that just a few years later we’ve now had Lego Indiana Jones, Lego Rock Band and Lego Batman. Now at last those clever Lego people are finally taking on the Harry Potter franchise with Lego Harry Potter Years 1-4 for Wii. I don’t know about you but after playing through the previous (dark and scary) Harry Potter game for Wii but I am quite looking forward to a less serious take on the series. Lego Harry Potter for Wii is promising to...

Sin and Punishment Star Successor

Sin and Punishment Star Successor release date

Many people thought it would never happen but it has. We finally have a sequel to one of the most hard-core action titles that ever graced a home video game console. The original Sin and Punishment for Nintendo 64 was originally only released in Japan but finally saw a western release the Nintendo Virtual Console for Wii. Now in 2010 Sin and Punishment 2 arrives from Treasure software and is pushing more pixels than any other Wii game to date. I can’t wait to find out how well Sin and Punishment Star Successor for Wii now plays with pointer aiming...

Transformers War For Cybertron

Transformers War For Cybertron release date

Whilst we could all cry for weeks that the sultry Megan Fox is likely not appearing in the third Transformers movie, perhaps we should just get over it and play some Xbox 360. Let’s get this clear, Transformers War of Cybertron is not a movie spinoff. Instead the inspiration for the game comes from the original TV series and not Michael Bay’s blockbuster cinema ventures. As expected you take control of a Transformer but don’t go thinking you’ll only be playing as the goodies in this adventure. Prepare to see the Cybertron war from both sides as you play distinct...
