A veritable cornucopia of entertainment drenched in frivolity.


  • OPINION: The Reality of Fighting Games

    When it comes to beating the hell out of each other in a fighting game, there is much that the player is willing to forgive. Fireballs? Yeah, sure. A massive robot that looks like Arnie? Why not? The ability to rip out your opponent’s spine? Ummm, okay then.
    However, some things I just find it […]

  • Don Cheadle is a traitor. Or is he? Or IS he? OR IS HE?

    There are a great many actors that, in The Score’s opinion at least, deserve many more leading roles. Somewhere near the top of that list would be Don Cheadle who, despite many a sparkling supporting role and a couple of stunning leads (Hotel Rwanda and the hugely underrated Reign Over Me), doesn’t seem to have […]

  • KABLUEY!

    Quite apart from having the finest title of anything ever, this intriguing little flick has thrown us a right curve-ball. We knew next to nothing about it, and know even less after watching the trailer. All we know is that we laughed. Hard. At least twice.
    Check out the trailer, if you want to be as […]

  • 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, […]
