    Super Mario World: Super Mario Advance 2

    Timeless, will still be playable in 50 years time!

    Playing this as a Kid was, from my limited memory a fantastic point in my life, the sense of scale portrayed even back then was brilliant and it was such a colourful world, with creative characters and a sense of just pu... Read Full Review

    Brilliance and a sense of amasement rarely found in the FPS market these days

    Walking in to Crysis 2 I was beginning to show a lack of caring and tiredness towards the first person shooter genre, its overly saturated and full of hit and miss and totally monopolised by anything brandishing the call... Read Full Review

    Duke's back, and whilst not glorious, it will at the very least please the fans

    I was merely 11 when the original Duke came out on the Playstation, luckily tho my dad was awesome and let me play it, and it rocked, I grew up treating Duke like a surrogate father, and still quote him most days, so I a... Read Full Review

    Heavy Rain

    As close to a cinematic experience as you can get.

    Havey rain, whilst looking fairly interesting never fully appealed to me in the early stages, it looked ok but just reminded me of the point and click adventures of the old days, and all looked dull. My mate then lent... Read Full Review

    The definitive RTS finally arrived and what a game it is.

    This was one review I decided to take my time on, after being a big fan of the original Starcraft I needed to ensure I was not still riding the hype train a week after it's release and that this truly is the RTS i loved ... Read Full Review

    Bionic Commando: Rearmed

    A fun little trip down memory lane

    I remember playing bionic commando as a very small boy and falling in love with the game, it was unusual in the way that you was not able to jump, instead you had a grapple hook and swung from platform to platform, and t... Read Full Review

    Bioshock 2 may be familiar to the original, but to fans of the series, that wont be a massive drawback

    Bioshock 2 is somewhat of a mixed bag, after playing it all night since midnight in the UK, I have come to the conclusion that this is a great game, although some need to have an understanding of the first game does help... Read Full Review

    Star Wars: The Force Unleashed

    Force unleashed does not break boundaries, but it is still very fun!

    The force unleashed suffered from a well known condition called "the hype train" and while to many it failed to get aboard this train completely successfully it does however offer one of the better experiences in the Sta... Read Full Review

    Number 6 feels like somewhat of a missed opportunity

    Tekken has always been my fighter of choice and no doubt will continue to be, its controls are far less complicated than street fighter and it is just more fun on a gaming night with your mates, but Tekken 6 feels like a... Read Full Review

    Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots (Platinum)

    A game for all MGS fans that have ever wanted a snese of closure.

    Playing MGS4 when it came out, the hype train did truly grab me, and no doubt this would have been my only 10 out of 10 i would of handed out, however with time and some replaying although still the game that I dreamt of... Read Full Review

    Killzone 2

    The sequel that truly showed what we expected all those years ago.

    Killzone, on reflection, was a disaster, on the PS2 this was billed as the "halo killer", in execution, it just did not happen, bland graphics and just lack of inspiration kept it as an average shooter and by most standa... Read Full Review

    A fun, if somewhat frustrating at times game

    The original Uncharted was one of the first games on the PS3 to make me say "wow" and it truly was a gorgeous game, I thought the game was a little under-reviewed and deserved more credit than what it got. The sequel how... Read Full Review
