Toy Story 3
Toy Story is a franchise that needs no real introduction, as the films have delighted kids for years now and even kept grumbling adults quiet too – it's that rare breed of animation that can appease both. With a mix of charm, humour and ridiculousness on offer, it seems obvious...
Singularity
The concept of time travel has made for a number of great films and books, but far fewer truly memorable games. There are titles that have dabbled with the idea to good effect, such as Prince of Persia, but for the full blown effect you would have to look at...
Split/Second
Racing games tend to fall into two categories; either the hardcore simulation or the arcade style thrill ride. This game is unashamedly in the latter category and makes no secret of the fact that it is about big dumb fun and plenty of explosions. Think of it as the Michael...
This game is not Mario Kart. Allow me to repeat that: this game is notMario Kart. It seems that the second anyone releases a cartoon style racer, the comparisons are all anyone can talk about, but the original Mario Kart is in the distant past and surely it is time...
Aliens vs. Predator
The first thing any prospective buyer of Rebellion's latest AvP title should do is forget anything they saw during the quite terrible Alien vs Predator films, as they are not indicative of the quality and storytelling that this franchise is capable of. Instead you should pay more attention to the...
BioShock 2
It is fair to say that BioShock was a bit good. It would probably be fair to say that it was insanely good... but come on, let's be honest, I did not want to come across as a crazy fanboy. Guess it is too late for that now, so let...
Dante's Inferno
I doubt there are many epic pieces of literature that have been successfully turned into games, certainly not good games at any rate. So there were a few quizzically raised eyebrows when a game based on the famous Dante Alighieri poem, Divine Comedy - specifically the Inferno chapter - was...
Bayonetta
With all the talk last year about the so called "death" of the Japanese gaming industry (mainly from people in the Japanese gaming industry), it is nice to see a developer take a stand and show people how wrong they were. Considering the increasingly Western influence that seems to be...
Tropico 3
Have you ever dreamed of being whisked away to rule your own tropical paradise? Anyone that answered yes may well expect a visit from 007 should their dream come true and anyone that answered no is just an outright liar. So now we have separated the dictators from the chaff...
Dragon Age: Origins
Everyone loves a good RPG, well, in actual fact, a lot of people would rather go the other way. So the challenge has always been to make a role playing game that appeals to the hardcore fans while still drawing in new players who might usually be put off by...
Brütal Legend
No doubt everyone is well aware of Brutal Legend by now, as the Jack Black fuelled marketing machine was in full swing for months prior to the game's release. Something that is an unusual trait for a Tim Schafer game, which generally enjoy slipping into existence under the radar and...
As Ant and Dec once sang – lets get read to rumble! Of course that same song also included the dubious lyric “watch us wreck the mic – psyche” so it can't have been all good. I appear to be going off on a tangent here, but anyone that has...
