    Where in the World is Carmen Sandiego?

    By Pontesi | Review Date: Nov 30, 2005 | PC

    The most basic of concepts usually ooze with greatness - so it's no surprise that this is a classic.

    Nowadays, a game conceived into a franchise is common ground. Go back about twenty years and such a feat required the backing of a dedicated fanbase, a profitable concept and...well...Nintendo or something...Carmen might... Read Full Review

    GET READY, FIGHT! Dead or Alive is back baby!

    Dead or Alive 4 (Platinum Hits)

    By Pontesi | Review Date: Mar 26, 2006 | X360

    GET READY, FIGHT! Dead or Alive is back baby!

    When the first Dead or Alive (DOA for short) game arrived, it received rave reviews for the original Playstation console. Eight years later and the Dead or Alive spirit is still strong. The series hasn’t just kept to its... Read Full Review

    By Pontesi | Review Date: Oct 17, 2005 | XBOX

    Georgie boy, if you want to make another Star Wars film - then you'll find your script in this game.

    This game was hyped up so badly by some friends that they almost forced me into completing it. That was actually a good thing - as Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic is an essential for any Star Wars loving, Xbox afi... Read Full Review

    Indigo Prophecy

    By Pontesi | Review Date: Sep 22, 2005 | XBOX

    So what's so great about this game? Yoda replies, "Everything!"

    Have you noticed any real adventure games that have lit up the canals of gaming - and I don't mean the mistaken cross genre of action/adventure - recently? Most gamers will reply with a simple one worded answer: no. Ther... Read Full Review

    A new twist to a game in the doldrums.

    Star Wars Galaxies: Episode III Rage of the Wookiees

    By Pontesi | Review Date: Jul 16, 2005 | PC

    A new twist to a game in the doldrums.

    Star Wars Galaxies recently reached an extreme low with players fed up of the current system. Yet with the announcement of Rage of the Wookies, the second expansion to the original Star Wars Galaxies series, to coincide ... Read Full Review

    Guitar Hero II

    By Pontesi | Review Date: Jul 21, 2007 | PS2

    Easy to pick up and a challenge to master - Guitar Hero II hits the correct note.

    I must say that despite much encouragement from friends, I never picked up or played Guitar Hero. I couldn't justify the price for something so ridiculous. I couldn't imagine why someone would want to play with a kiddie ... Read Full Review

    There's only so much re-iteration one Football/Soccer fan can stand.

    Championship Manager: Season 03/04

    By Pontesi | Review Date: Jul 12, 2005 | PC

    There's only so much re-iteration one Football/Soccer fan can stand.

    Championship Manager has always been at the forefront of the Soccer (or Football to a UK resident like me) management genre, until recently. The incentive of managing your own soccer team, making the transfers you want t... Read Full Review

    Was and still, a very overlooked game which at its time was surrounded by very childish titles to suit the then market.

    Theme Hospital

    By Pontesi | Review Date: Jul 25, 2005 | PS

    Was and still, a very overlooked game which at its time was surrounded by very childish titles to suit the then market.

    Two of my favourite games for the Playstation were Bullfrog games. Populas (Newer version that is) and Theme Hospital really just craved my need for strategy on a console. I no longer have Populas but I still do have my ... Read Full Review

    Grand Theft Auto: Vice City

    By Pontesi | Review Date: Jul 12, 2005 | PS2

    The most luxurious and enjoyable of the GTA titles.

    I love Grand Theft Auto as much as the next gamer and have followed it since it arrived on the shelves. GTA 3 pretty much soured me – in my eyes it was too dark, deep and different from the originals. Maybe because of th... Read Full Review

    By Pontesi | Review Date: Aug 02, 2005 | PS2

    If you have an Xbox, purchase it for the Xbox. The PS2 version is short, simplistic and poorly presented.

    Being an avid fan of the original Ghost Recon on the PC, I was hyped for this title. Deciding in the end to purchase the game for the PS2, as soon as I stuck it on I was disappointed. The presentation and loading times a... Read Full Review

    A review of the ACTUAl Playstation game, and not the PC version.

    Actua Tennis

    By Pontesi | Review Date: Aug 21, 2006 | PS

    A review of the ACTUAl Playstation game, and not the PC version.

    The Actua series was, at one time, a strong and new series that looked to challenge EA's grip on the sports market. Unfortunately as soon as the whole thing lifted it off, it fell down to the ground - not enough support ... Read Full Review
