- Limbo Of The Lost
This is an interesting story. UK based developer Majestic Studios recently released the PC adventure game Limbo Of The Lost after over a decade of development. Sometimes when playing a game, I get the feeling that I have seen it before, or that it is similar to another title. However, Limbo Of The Lost appears […]
- Battle It Out To Win!
Sorry for the title, but this is for a Nintendo game after all. Starting from the 28th of June, selected Gamestation stores are holding a ‘Super Smash Bros. Brawl Showdown’. A competition of the latest iteration on the series, out on the Wii for the first time. Check out the details here
The tournament will be […]
- Starship Trooper
In space, no-one can hear you scream. You’ll also be unable to eat, sleep, play the vibraphone and, most importantly, listen to any of the aural emanations of one Robbie Williams, the worst thing to come out of Stoke-on-Trent since… well, actually he is the worst thing to come out of Stoke-on-Trent.
Regrettably human ego-on-legs Robbie […]
- OBITUARY: Stan Winston (1946 – 2008)
Stan Winston who stood out among his peers as the most influential special effects genius working in movies, has died at the age of 62. He had been battling cancer for seven years and eventually succumbed at his home on Sunday night. A spokeswoman for Stan Winston Studio said, in a statement released to the […]
- REVIEW: Sid Meier’s Civilization: Revolution
Sid Meier has been in the videogames industry for 24 years. He began his long and illustrious career as a founding member of MicroProse Software with Bill Stealey in 1982. In 1991 he produced one of the best selling and critically regarded games ever, and is credited with creating an entire genre (the ‘God Game’) […]
- REVIEW: The Incredible Hulk
There’s a point in The Incredible Hulk where it loses all credibility for me. Something daft and needless and, although some will say I’m being quite the picky fanboy, something that, in my opinion, doesn’t sit well with the character. But more on that later.
First, the good. Louis Leterrier (yes, he of Transporter ‘fame’) has, […]
- Want To Be In Street Fighter IV?
That’s right, you could be in Capcom’s next installment of arguably the most famous fighting game ever made.
Over here, in Capcom’s blog, they have set up a little competition so that you can put your face onto a background character in the upcoming game. All you need to do is tell them why you should […]
- Football Gamers Sue EA
That’s American Football gamers, by the way.
The article, in the Sillicon Valley/San Jose Business Journal, can be found here
Its quite interesting, and throws up the problem of one company only being able to use official licensing. EA have exclusive agreements with the NFL, meaning that another game company is unable to use the license.
Now, the […]
- REVIEW: Chet Baker- Embraceable You
Chet Baker is often overlooked in the grand scheme of things where Jazz is concerned. A highly gifted trumpet player, Baker was considered at one time to be the superior of Miles Davis or Dizzy Gillespie. As the liner notes to Embraceable You inform us, Chet Baker was voted the best trumpeter by readers of […]
- OPINION: The Plight of Choice
I am privileged (or perhaps silly) enough to own both the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3. Fantastic, I hear you cry. Well, not always. The problem I’ve been having of late is multi-format games, big titles that are coming out on both systems. I know I want to buy a particular game, say Grand Theft […]
