Crysis 3 review

I recently replayed Crysis 2 before playing Crysis 3 and I’m actually also playing through the original Crysis on the PC with everything turned up full. It actually still stands up today even though it’s 7 years old! Crysis 3 lets you play as Prophet for the first time after he literally rose from the ashes at the end of Crysis 2. The game begins with his old squad mate Michael ‘Psycho’ Sykes breaking him out of his prison to get help with putting an end to the Cell Corporation enslaving humans after they can’t afford their energy, but it...

Aliens Colonial Marines

Aliens Colonial Marines review

I’ve played all the Alien games over the years and to be honest they’ve never quite lived up to what they should be. Aliens was a good action movie right? So it should translate well into a good first-person shooter. This time it’s Gearbox Software’s turn to try and make a AAA title and this one’s different as it doesn’t feature Predators thrown into the mix and is actually considered as an official part of the story canon set shortly after the events on LV-426 in the movie Aliens. You play one of a team of marines sent to rescue...

Dead Space 3

Dead Space 3 vs Mass Effect 3

Dead Space 3 is out soon but do you still miss shooting things in the face as Commander Shepard? Well now you can pretend you’re still playing Mass Effect thanks to N7 armour available to Isaac Clarke. If you’ve played Mass Effect 3 and have a save game on your console, you’ll automatically get the suit to wear when dismembering those Necromorphs.

New Wii U games for 2013

Wii U owners rejoice! Nintendo have announced a flurry of games for the console featuring some Nintendo favourites. Among the titles you can look forward to playing over the coming months will be two new Zelda titles (one of them being an HD remake of The Wind Waker), a new 3D Mario game which I presume could be Super Mario Galaxy U, a brand new Mario Kart title and Yarn Yoshi, a similar concept to Kirby’s Epic Yarn.

Ni no Kuni Wrath of the White Witch

Ni no Kuni Wrath of the White Witch review

Before now, Ni no Kuni only existed as an RPG on the DS in Japan so unless you were well versed in Japanese it would have been pretty tricky to get into the story. Now, thanks to Namco Bandai, the game’s a PS3 exclusive here in the West so now we can all play along and know what it’s all about. And as a bonus if you still want to play it with Japanese voices and English subs – you can! Hooray, everyone’s a winner! The game’s a heartfelt tale from animé experts Studio Ghibli and Professor Layton developers Level-5...
