Review: Max: The Curse of Brotherhood

Does anybody remember platformer games? They’re the bread and butter of video games in my humble opinion but it’s been a while since I’ve sat down to enjoy one properly.

Review: Halo: Spartan Assault

Halo has been struggling to stay relevant in recent years. It needs to do something new and exciting to captivate audiences again...

Review: The Walking Dead: Season 2: Episode 1 – All That Remains

Prepare to be thrown in the deep-end as The Walking Dead: Season 2 amplifies the tragedy of its predecessor greatly even in this first episode.

Review: The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug

Even before I arrived at the cinema to watch Peter Jackson’s next foray into Middle-Earth, I was already thinking about The Two Towers. Perhaps my expectations were too high…

Review: The Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds

How often do you hear people talk about awful The Legend of Zelda games? The answer to that question is: never.

Review: Yeti on Furry

Heading to iOS comes Yeti on Furry, a game that tasks you with defending a Yeti from baddies by tapping on the screen and switching between an array of attack powers.

Review: FIFA 14

I rely on EA’s yearly franchise to get my sporting highs on the couch – and I can thankfully report that FIFA 14 certainly achieves that, though surprisingly for a next-gen entry, loses something...

Review: PlayStation 4

After seven years, PlayStation comes full circle. Read on for the BRB verdict of Sony's latest behemoth.

Review: Dead Rising 3

I have a love/hate relationship with Capcom games, the Dead Rising series is no exception to this...

Review: Ryse: Son of Rome

At a point around half way through the campaign - I paused Ryse and said out loud; "Am I playing the same game that everyone else reviewed?"

Review: LEGO Marvel Super Heroes

From the same success of taking Star Wars, Batman, Lord of the Rings and more, combined with the childhood mega toy that is tiny bricks of plastic, comes LEGO Marvel Super Heroes.

Review: Velocity Ultra

FuturLab have decided to release Velocity Ultra on the Playstation 3, and I'm so happy they did.

Review: Tearaway

Releasing Tearaway now is either a show of the utmost confidence in Media Molecule and their latest offering or utter disregard for the game’s prospects – so which is it?

Review: The Hunger Games: Catching Fire

Despite the critical barbs thrown at the first Hunger Games movie, I still enjoyed it enough to look forward to this week’s release of the sequel, Catching Fire.

Contrast Review

Does Contrast shine in its newly-found place on PlayStation Plus' Instant Games Collection, or slink quietly into the shadows of gaming mediocrity?

Review: Madagascar 3: Europe’s Most Wanted

Don't rush to put them back in the zoo; these animals pose no danger to your wallet.

Review: Worms Collection

As a gamer you are probably, at least loosely, aware of the zany weapon turn based combat that is at the heart of all the games available in the Worms Collection. The disc based Collection consis...

Review: Rock Band Blitz

Unplugging the amplitude from the frequency. Does Harmonix's latest beat-matcher upset the rhythm?

Review: Transformers: Fall of Cybertron

Transformers, more than meets the eye?

Review: Sleeping Dogs

The game feels like a giant love letter from developer United Front Games to the city of Hong Kong and the many action films its produced.

Review: Sound Shapes

Sound Shapes for the PS Vita and Playstation 3 may be simple, but it feels like they spent a lot of time making the game feel right before filling it with the rest of its mechanics.

Review: The Ratchet and Clank Trilogy

Whilst the current-gen series may have the upper-hand graphically, there’s very little to separate it from its trio of daddies - and this makes the trilogy an essential buy for those who missed o...

Inversion Review

It is hard to talk about Inversion without mentioning Gears of War. Gravity of War may have been a more apt title.

1953 KGB Unleashed Review

Point and click adventure games, once a king genre of PC games, has emerged again just lately as a contender for your hard earned cash. Can 1953: KGB Unleashed step into the ring?

Zuma’s Revenge Review

Zuma's Revenge is an iteration on the previous design and certainly is not looking to redefine the match-three style gameplay that made Zuma a simplistic gameplay success before it.

Heroes of Ruin Review

Ah, dungeon crawling. The heady loot-laden pastime of many a gamer; the knowledge that an improved, shiny and new bit of awesome may just be round the next corner has kept many a gamer away from ...

The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim: Dawnguard Review

Dawnguard is the first of hopefully many "mini" expansions for The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim that adds a plethora of new things for your personal Dovahkiin to do.

Resident Evil: The Umbrella Chronicles HD Review

Umbrella Chronicles delivers the best meaty, decayed shot of on-rails shooting this side of House of the Dead: Overkill, and also boasts one of the best HD conversions yet seen on PS3.

Resistance: Burning Skies Review

The news that a brand new Resistance title was making its way to the Vita was met with a considerable amount of excitement; so what could go wrong? As it turns out, quite a lot.

Spec Ops: The Line Review

Spec Ops: The Line has a number of technical and mechanical problems but, unlike many other war-based shooters, has a meaningful, thoughtful story that is likely to stay with you.
