Blade Runner

By Ravenhoe | Review Date: Aug 30, 2009 | PC

a very intense gaming experience, especially or maybe only if you are an adventure game and / or Blade Runner enthusiast

I am big fan fan of Blade Runner and Ridley Scott in general. So I was pleased when Blade Runner was released and despite the lack of anything resembling good 'ole Harrison Ford, the game recreated the Blade Runner unive... Read Full Review

Big Red Racing

By Ravenhoe | Review Date: Aug 30, 2009 | PC

Where could who race who with what ?

There are but a few "racing" games around which take the formula of racing and turn it on its head by making the actual "racing" aspect of the game playing second fiddle to some other quirks in the game. Big Red Racing... Read Full Review

Battle Bugs

Battle Bugs is a rather unusual piece of real time strategy. Id rather call it real time tactical game

Battle Bugs is a rather unusual piece of real time strategy. Id rather call it real time tactical game as there is not too much strategy involved. The game lacks any sort of resource managment, building or research facil... Read Full Review

Batman Returns

By Ravenhoe | Review Date: Aug 30, 2009 | SNES

a brilliant Beat 'Em up and maybe on of the best of the genre out there.

Nowadays, with the caped crusader being back en vogue again, thanks to Christopher Nolan and his masterful resurrection of the franchise, some people forget that Batman had already a small era of "prime" back in the 90ie... Read Full Review

Battle Chess

By Ravenhoe | Review Date: Aug 30, 2009 | PC

this game is the perfect example on how aesthetic production values such as the anmations can make a game good

A chess game at its core, this game is the perfect example on how aesthetic production values such as the anmations in this case make or break the game. In this case, they absolutely MAKE the game. Every time one of your... Read Full Review

Baldur's Gate: Dark Alliance (PCCW The Best)

By Ravenhoe | Review Date: Aug 29, 2009 | PS2

a stripped down, more action orientated version of the Diablo formula.

I have played through this game a few times with my brother. While it is a solid single-player experience on its own i truly shines as a two player cooperative game. Featuring the usual array of heroes you roam the lan... Read Full Review

Arachnophobia

you find yourself heavily armed with a huge yellow canister, sneaking through the hallways and getting rid of those bugg

To this day, I must admit I have never seen the movie the game is based on. I somehow missed it when I was a kind and it seems to be quite the obscure title to purchase by today. The game itself is equally unknown a... Read Full Review

Abomination

By Ravenhoe | Review Date: Aug 29, 2009 | PC

In the wake of X-Com, Abomination was another squad based game pitting a bunch of good guys against demented mutants

In the wake of X-Com, Abomination was another squad based game pitting a bunch of good guys against demented mutants (not aliens). The game lacks X-Com's oozing atmosphere and theme though, but is fun to play nonetheless... Read Full Review

7 Days a Skeptic

By Ravenhoe | Review Date: Aug 29, 2009 | PC

In my opinion the best title in the Trilby quadrilogy

Like his other adventure games (5 Days a stranger, 6 days a sacrifice) Ben "Yahtzee" Crosshaw turns a weakness into a virtue by basing the game in a very claustrophbic setting. Even more than in the game from the series,... Read Full Review
