Medal of Honor

Medal of Honour Airborne review

After playing through both excellent Call of Duties on the 360 and trying out the awful Hour of Victory recently, reviewing Medal of Honour Airborne is like coming full-circle to where it all started. I was hoping I would be blown away with a great new game play mechanic but ultimately, this one feels very similar to the previous titles apart from the fact that at the start of each level you come falling through the skies like the old Pilotwings game on the SNES, the difference being you get shot at and if you miss the green flares indicating...

FEAR 3

Jericho

I thought I’d make you guys aware of a new squad-based horror FPS coming out from Codemasters called Jericho. That’s if you haven’t got it on your radar already. I guess Codemasters are a bit fed up of being remembered for Colin McRae, Brian Lara Cricket and other safe games like Treasure Island Dizzy and wanted to make a truly adult game full of gore. You know, something you’ll have to play wearing bicycle clips to avoid making a mess of your carpet. This is Clive Barker’s Jericho to be precise and if you’ve ever seen his Hellraiser movie you’ll...

Tiger Woods PGA Tour 08 review

So another year and another version of Tiger Woods PGA Tour comes out of the labs at EA and another horde of eager gamers go to the shops to buy what is essentially, the same game as last year with a few tweaks and improvements added. This year though, the improvements are significant, especially on the 360 with Xbox Live and the ability to load your face into the game, more on that in a second. To anyone unfamiliar, this golf franchise has been running for as long as I can remember and you can choose to play through a...

Halo 3 ODST

Halo 3 early release

A boxed copy of Halo 3 has gone on sale in Australia and sold for about 70 quid. There’s pictures and everything of it so either someone at Microsoft, a warehouse or Bungie has nicked one and has decided to flog it. Oohhh there’ll be trouble!

Zelda on the Wii

There’s already a new Zelda game coming out for the Wii. With the advent of their new lightgun peripheral the Zapper, they’re also making a game called Zelda Crossbow training which is about… you guessed it, archery! It’s a third-person target shooting game using the Twilight Princess engine. Whether we all start stealing from the rich and giving to the poor is yet to be seen.

Stuntman: Ignition review

This review is about the sequel to Stuntman – Stuntman Ignition. Now the original on the PS2 was a bit of a Marmite game. You either liked it or wanted to drop your PS2 from a great height after half an hour of getting things wrong and waiting 2 minutes for the game to load so you could start again. Basically, the director calls the shots and you have to obey, whether it be pulling 180 degree handbrake turns. Smashing through buildings, firing rockets from your car or jumping over ramps – all within a movie scene. This time around...
