    Tony Hawk's Underground 2

    The darkest hour on a skateboard.

    I own every last Hawks game made in one form or another aside from American Wasteland. Its omission will be made clear soon. Each and every title sits on my shelf collecting dust. Like all yearly franchises, they reta... Read Full Review

    Arc: Twilight of the Spirits

    Lost and Found

    There's an unsung element hidden within the many ranks of the RPG genre, one that receives its fair share of unfair criticism yet still stands tall despite the tainted words thrown at it; the oft-mocked plot points that ... Read Full Review

    The Thing

    Horror in a snow-swept wilderness -- and not a yeti in sight.

    Captain Blake, it seems, gets all the fun jobs. Airlifted to the all-year-round winter wonderland in Antarctica where the film of the same name took place, Blake and his small crew of soldiers are unceremoniously dumped ... Read Full Review

    Arguably, the 32-bit era saw the greatest concentration of RPGs after the rather noteworthy Final Fantasy VII wowed a whole new generation of gamers. This opened the metaphorical floodgates to a veritable slew of role-pl... Read Full Review

    Video games are awesome. They have that ability to shape and mould your emotions throughout, making you little more than a puppet grasping a control pad. They can inflict wonderment, losing you in a make-believe world mo... Read Full Review

    Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic

    The force is strong in this one. Tell no one I stooped to such an tagline!

    This is the tale of two Jedi. Both awake on the Republican battleship, The Endar Spire, while under heavy bombardment from Sith forces. One forms a quick bond with his room mate, allowing them to work as a cohesive u... Read Full Review

    Crying: Aseimei Sensou

    Shooting has never been this frantic! With a brave new system utilised and all the right notes hit, this is a must-play

    All things considered, a lot of us should enjoy getting our shoot on. A large slice of the gaming population likes to invest its time being washed over by random explosions, racking up huge opposition death-counts and g... Read Full Review

    It's Iraq! You and a team of three others have been dropped just outside a military encampment, filled to the brim with the enemies of democracy. Your mission is to covertly make your way through this and a series of o... Read Full Review

    50 Cent: Bulletproof

    Another in a long line of poor games from 'hot' licences.

    Game developers, take note: no matter who you grab from the entertainment industry to base a game on, the odds are against you. KISS Physco Circus was a disappointment and a commercial flop; the Metallica game has bee... Read Full Review

    Once upon a time, in a galaxy far, far away...

    Sometimes, things just work. A game is not the sum of its parts, and this is especially true with Star Ocean: The Second Story. Dissecting the experience leaves you with a rather unflattering analysis. Dated graphic... Read Full Review
