Bioshock the Movie

The Bioshock movie could be directed by the same geezer that directed 28 Weeks Later. Juan Carlos Frednadillo will probably be in charge. Let’s hope it’s better than other movies based on videogames.

GI Joe The Rise of Cobra

GI Joe The Rise of Cobra review

Anyone old enough to remember the G.I. Joe cartoon and toys? Well if you do, you may or may not be excited about the new movie. This is the game of the movie of the cartoon and as you’d expect it’s actually a load of watered-down rubbish so I’ll be quick. As you can see, the game almost plays like Commando or Contra in that you just run into the screen and shoot everything in front of you. This wouldn’t be so bad if the game played like Gears of War but it actually plays a bit like the 80s...

G Force

G Force review

We all know that most movie licenses are very bad but Disney’s G-Force actually bucks the trend and delivers a satisfying action adventure with high production values and tight controls.

Night at the Museum 2

Night at the Museum 2 review

I haven’t seen the first Night at the Museum film or the second, but this is obviously a film license aimed at kids and aimed to sell alongside the movie. In the game you play the role of Larry Davey and when it gets dark, things once again come to life as you try to put a stop to an evil Egyptian power called Kahmunrah from taking over the world. He’s also employed the help of a few despicable characters from history including Al Capone, Napoleon and Ivan the Terrible in the Smithsonian museum in Washington. As you explore the...

Terminator Salvation

Terminator Salvation trailer

The first trailer for Terminator Salvation is doing the rounds and it looks very much like Gears of War 2 . Based on the movie starring Christian Bale, the game features stop and pop shooting as you fight hordes of Terminators in the future war after Skynet’s gone all berserk. Hopefully it won’t be rubbish. Preorder Terminator Salvation now New: Buy Terminator Salvation from Amazon.com Related: Gears of War 2, Fallout 3
