    Shadows of the Damned

    Shadows of the Damned is a trip to hell well worth taking!

    Do you like dick jokes? No, this is a serious question, how much do you like a good dick joke? Does the thought of a well-executed dick joke give you the same satisfaction as a fire on a winter's day, an embrace from a l... Read Full Review

    About as magical as a trip to Milton Keyenes...

    Fable II is the sequel to the disappointing Fable which was released on the Xbox when people still didn't care about Microsoft's consoles. Now Peter Molyneux has promised to make Fable II do all the things he wanted to w... Read Full Review

    L.A. Noire

    L.A. Noire's ambitions outweigh its faults.

    Rockstar really have made a conscientious effort to tell a more mature story in this console generation. First with GTA 4 and Niko Bellic discovering the truth that the American dream is nothing more than a fiction, then... Read Full Review

    LEGO Batman: The Videogame

    Not exactly a Blockbuster!

    The LEGO series is something that has a strange appeal for me. After all I purchased LEGO Star Wars and gave LEGO Indy a rent but now the team at Traveller's Tales have been giving the task of LEGO-izing Batman. This tim... Read Full Review

    Pilotwings Resort

    PIlotwings returns but seems to have forgotten about 10 hours of playtime.

    The 3DS doesn't have too many stars in its launch line up, but the return of the Pilotwings franchise after a 14-year hiatus certainly grabbed most people's attention. Fans will be pleased to hear that Pilotwings Resort ... Read Full Review

    Or why Co-Op shouldn't be tacked on to a single player game.

    Let's get this out of the way I loved Resident Evil 4 it was the best game of the last console generation and managed to save a series that was becoming stale. So with Resident Evil 5 been the spiritual successor you can... Read Full Review

    The House of the Dead: Overkill

    If Samuel L. Jackson was a game, he'd be this.

    SEGA is really pushing for the hardcore Wii market in 2009 with Madworld (looks fantastic but may be repetitive), Sonic and the Black Knight (inevitably terrible) and The Conduit (generic beyond belief) all geared toward... Read Full Review

    Sonic Unleashed

    This goes bump in the Night.

    This game can be summed up in a few words 'Not as bad as usual'. For you see the recent Sonic the Hedgehog games have been terrible with the series hitting an all-time low with Sonic 06 which managed to combine crap plat... Read Full Review

    Grand Theft Auto IV

    Vice City is still the best you know.

    I may be a little bit slow on the uptake after all most people have bought GTA 4, played it to death and then proclaimed to their friends that it's the best thing made since those funny shoes with a wheel on the heel. So... Read Full Review

    Super Mario Galaxy 2

    Super Mario Galaxy 2 is as close to perfection as any game will come.

    How do you improve upon perfection? This was the challenge that faced Nintendo with the sequel to the brilliant Super Mario Galaxy. The answer apparently is more of the same, but bigger. So with more power-ups, familiar ... Read Full Review

    What Alan Wake lacks in scares, it makes up for in combat, atmosphere and a compelling story.

    Sonic Chronicles: The Dark Brotherhood

    Sonic in a RPG! Yeah I didn't think it would work either.

    Ok first things first I don't usually like RPG's and so the decision to buy this game was purely because of my love for Sonic the Hedgehog and the fact that Mass Effect wasn't terrible (it wasn't that good mind you). So ... Read Full Review

    The Silent Hill franchise had started to hit a slump, after all the series peaked with the magnificent Silent Hill 2 and it has been a downhill descent since then. Now US developers Climax have one last chance to redeem ... Read Full Review
