    Max Payne 3 – Review
    After a long hiatus and a new development team Max Payne has finally made his return.  Max Payne 3 sees an older Max Payne who has gone down to Sao Paulo, Brazil to protect a rich and influential family from kidnappers, thieves and the like.  It was supposed to be an “easy” job however it turned out to be anything but that.  It didn’t really take long until everything...

    Summer Challenge Athletics Tournament – Review
    The Olympics are nearly here and so are the sporting games.  Athletics Tournament is one such game available on the PS3, Xbox 360, Wii and PC.  Here we review the Wii version.  There are 8 disciplines and 20 events to look at, with Wiimote and Nunchuk controlling to master.  The graphics are decent for a Wii title; the stadiums are bright and varied with a few modes...

    Akai Katana – Review
    Side scrolling shooters are not for everyone, indeed most have a cult following and for those fans this genre is epic. Most causal gamers will play a side scrolling shooter for a while and then change it for Call of Duty or something more mainstream.  Rising Star Games and Cave have joined forces to bring us another one of these shooters called: Akai Kitana.  This game...

    Naruto Shippuden Ultimate Storm Generations – Review
    Anyone who has a penchant for anime will be no stranger to Naruto Shippuden, but for the others who are unfamiliar it is a spin off from series 2 of the Naruto series.  Still doesn’t ring any bells?  It’s ok, you don’t necessarily have to be familiar with the series as this game stands on it’s own two feet more than capably without the need to know the intricacies...

    Mortal Kombat – Review
    Anyone who is a true gamer will consider Mortal Kombat as one of the oldest stables in terms of fighting games.  Last year’s outing on the home consoles was a great success.  Indeed it received a lot of great reviews and high scores.  The good people at Warner Bros and NetherRealm have teamed up to bring this to the PS Vita and I’m glad they did.  This has...

    The Walking Dead: A New Day – Review
    TellTale’s first edition of the The Walking Dead game series, A New Day, had me at the edge of my seat with excitement (and perhaps fear of being eaten by a zombie). As a fan of the comic series, I am in love. Not only does the game provide emotional decisions, but the gore is incredibly satisfying. I also enjoyed seeing a couple of familiar characters from the comic....

    Disgaea 3: Absence Of Detention – Review
    Disgaea 3: Absence of Justice was originally released back on the PS3 in 2008, it got many good reviews and overall it was well received.  The Disgaea tittles have attracted a lot of hardcore fans and so it makes sense for Nippon Ichi to release a PS Vita game.  This is a similar game to the PS3 version in fact it’s pretty much a port but with all the DLC that the...

    Capcom Digital Collection – Review
    Back in the day there will have been one game that stood alone above all others, memorable for one moment, either in the game or the time of your life but no less important.  Then you revisit that game and the dream is smashed to bits, it’s not the graphical masterpiece it once was, the control system isn’t what it was and the gameplay, well, we’ll not dwell on...

    How many gamers like 2D fighting games?  How many gamers want an experience that will kick your ass and leave you asking for more?  BlazBlue: Continuum Shift Extend is just that.  Add to that the beautiful graphics, the crisp PS Vita screen, highly responsive and perfectly mapped controls and you end up with a pretty perfect fighter.  This game also comes with a hell...
