Nintendo 3DS XL review

The other day I was lucky enough to get a nice offer from Nintendo PR. They said that after the launch of the New Nintendo 3DS, I could swap my XL for the new version so I could enjoy its shiny newness, tweaked design and extra features. Of course I accepted and I must say, this is quite the improvement! Of course, this isn’t a brand new handheld, just a remodel of the current system. The New Nintendo 3DS XL comes in at the same size as the old XL, but, like its smaller cousin, has a brand new button...

Saints Row Gat out of Hell review

Saints Row is mental – and that’s why I like it. What once started out as a bit of a GTA spoof has now become a brand in its own right with each game getting progressively outlandish. So where could the game go after the planet was destroyed and everyone was living inside a computer simulation akin to The Matrix? Well, the answer is hell. In this stand-alone addition to Saints Row 4, the game picks up where the previous game left off with your team and the alien Zinyak having some fun at a birthday party with a Ouija...

Mortal Kombat X release date and trailer

Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment and NetherRealm Studios have released their latest Mortal Kombat X trailer showcasing yet more fighters from what I think could be my new favourite fighting game (my current favourite is the reboot Mortal Kombat which came out around three years ago). The trailer entitled “Who’s Next?” takes a look at some of the characters you can kill with or kill including Kitana, the beautiful but deadly Edenian princess and Kung Lao, the powerful martial artist who could give James Bond’s Oddjob a run for his money with his hat-tricks. And speaking of hats, Raiden is back...

GTA V PC release date delayed

Rockstar Games have announced a new release date for the PC version of GTA 5. The game has been delayed and will now come to PC on 24th March 2015 to give the developers a couple more weeks to test the game and prevent any mishaps of the kind which crippled matchmaking in GTA online on consoles last year. GTA Online for PC will support up to 30 players, will launch alongside GTA 5 for PC and will also feature Online Heists, which is coming to consoles slightly before. This mode will let you play in teams as you take...

The Witcher 3 Wild Hunt release date and system requirements

The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt launches for Spring 2015 and gamers looking forward to this third instalment of the Polish developed RPG are very excited about once again filling the boots of the white-haired hero as they run about the land based on the series of fantasy novels written by Andrej Sapkowski. The good news is that developers CD Projekt Red say you don’t need to have played the previous two games to enjoy Wild Hunt and you should be able to slip straight into Geralt’s shoes without too much trouble in a larger, more challenging, more detailed world.
