Enslaved: Odyssey to the West is all about its setting and characters, taking the ancient Chinese novel, Journey to the West, and transposing the story to a post-apocalyptic setting unlike any you'll have seen in games before. Typically barren, brown and grey, Enslaved's demolished post-apocalyptic America is bright green with...
Dead Rising 2
If the games industry was some cheesy 1980s high school drama and I was the teacher with the tweed jacket with leather elbow protectors, smoking a pipe thinking I’m still “trendy,” and Blue Castle and Capcom’s Dead Rising 2 was the student, with the ginger hair, freckles and look of...
Mafia II
Glorifying the Mafioso lifestyle for entertainment purposes is nothing new. For years we’ve been watching classic Mafia related films like The Godfather, Goodfellas and Scarface; and playing games that have taken inspiration from those films that we’ve come to know and love. While the films are generally held as classics,...
Halo: Reach
Chances are you’ve already made your mind up about whether or not you’re going to pick up Halo: Reach on launch, but if you’re one of the seven people who is still sat on the fence, then consider this a friendly little nudge in the right direction. Yes, this is...
I think it is fair to say that the original Kane and Lynch hardly set the world alight. After all of the hype, the game failed to deliver on its initial promise and, even though it provided some solid entertainment and a fantastically unique multiplayer experience, it could well have...
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...
Naughty Bear
There seem to be very few surprises left in the gaming industry, so when a novel idea does come along, people generally sit up and take notice. So the idea of a slightly unhinged, fluffy teddy bear running amok and killing off his brethren is so off the cuff that...
Alpha Protocol
Cult games are a weird phenomenon in the games industry. It’s that breed of game that won’t necessarily sell amazingly well or even score highly in terms of a Metacritic score, but they’re games that offer something so fresh and so original, that they will no doubt have their devout...
Red Dead Redemption
Taking a barren wasteland of dust and wannabe outlaws and turning it into an open-world action-adventure title on the same level as Rockstar’s other open-world titles is no easy feat. Red Dead Redemption is a Wild West adventure title like no other though. Granted, it did face the trials and...
NieR
The quality of the work coming out of Square Enix seems to have taken a dip significantly in recent years, with even the mighty Final Fantasy succeeding in polarising opinions, not to mention a number of other recent misfires. It is hardly the end of an empire, but it does...
Lost Planet 2
E.D.N. III is a hostile planet with a wild climate, inhabited by huge toothsome monsters that hold the key to the sole energy source. Mankind for some reason, has decided to terraform and colonise this godforsaken rock, disturbing the local fauna in the process. Smart move!
Alan Wake
How Remedy got from a stunning play-on-words-name like Max Payne to Alan Wake, I’ll never know. It must have been a really sleep deprived meeting when that name was given the go-ahead. Remedy wanted their new protagonist to be an everyday man, yet every time I hear his name, I...
