Battlefield 3 review

So here it is. After months of hype Battlefield 3 finally comes to consoles and PC and delivers sandbox multiplayer battles in abundance. The Battlefield games have always been first-and-foremost about playing with and against real people but this time they’ve included a fully fleshed out single player campaign as well that’s bound to draw comparisons with the Call of Duty franchise. Have DICE succeeded in taking CoD’s crown? Well, based on previous Battlefield games, it’s a bit of a mixed bag. Let’s start with the best thing DICE do and that’s multiplayer. You can play over a variety of...

The Legend of Zelda 25th Anniversary

Last night was The Legend of Zelda 25th Anniversary Symphony at the Hammersmith HMV Apollo in London. I arrived at a venue that was ridiculously busy outside as people queued round the corner to get inside and try out Skyward Sword in the lobby before grabbing a quick drink, getting some merchandise and finding their seats. We were in for a treat because as we sat down we were confronted by the Royal Philharmonic Concert Orchestra waiting patiently on the stage, along with a big projected screen above them to show the visuals from the Zelda games over the past...

Devil May Cry HD Collection

Devil May Cry has become the latest gaming series to jump on the HD gravy train. Following in the footsteps of Tomb Raider, God of War and the like, the collection will be out in early 2012 for PS3 and Xbox 360 and will consist of hi-def versions of Devil May Cry, Devil May Cry 2 and Devil May Cry 3: Dante’s Awakening Special Edition. The first two are probably untouched but the last one features extra content not found in the original such as being able to play as Dante’s brother Virgil and two new game modes entitled Bloody...

Dead Rising 2 Off The Record

Dead Rising 2 Off The Record review

You could say that zombies have a lot in common with celebrities. Most people tend to get quite ‘excited’ when they encounter a zombie, for instance, and it’s the same for many people when they meet a celebrity. Zombies feed off of living breathing humans, celebrities ‘feed’ off the same, albeit in a different way (ie: they feel the need for the attention, to be constantly reassured that they are ‘special’, rather than feeling the need to munch on living flesh!) Zombies also have an annoying habit of not staying dead, much like celebrities at the end of their natural...
