  • Major League Baseball 2K9
    After last year’s disaster with MLB 2K8, 2K Sports went with another studio this year when they were developing 2K9. This year Visual Concepts was given the task to rebuild the series and, hopefully, return the series to its former glory. While this year’s title is a definite improvement over 2K8 there are still issues that need to be fixed. For starters this years version...

  • Bioshock
    There are games that get pumped up with so much hype whipping people into a frenzy, parting with their hard earned cash, only to then leave the gamer wishing they had not wasted their money, and then there are games that truly deserve the hype and actually end up exceeding the gamers expectations. Bioshock without any shadow of a doubt is in the class that should DEMAND...

  • NBA 2K7
    If it’s a sport there has to be a game based upon it, a common rule amongst the gaming industry and one that publishing giants, such as EA, never fail to uphold. However, they don’t always get the whole pie to themselves, we all know that there are certain sporting genres out there that EA have to work to monopolise and just as Pro Evolution will always be there to face...

  • Prey
    Prey starts badly. It’s hard to ignore an angular wash basin, incredibly misjudged voice acting and an opening section that appears free-roaming but is scripted to the point that it needed more signposting. The most appealing section of the whole game, the roadside bar you find yourself starting in, is not only confined to just a couple of rooms but is also brutally...

  • NHL 2K6
    Sports games, sports games, sports games…They have come thick and fast onto the Xbox 360 and have given us more choice than we care to think about when it comes to choosing a sports title. That said certain sports genres have been excluded until recently, and 2K Sports being the professionals they are have stepped out onto the ice with the first Xbox 360 Ice Hockey...

  • NBA 2K6
    There are more sports games on the 360 than you can shake a stick at - 21 titles and climbing last time I looked…therefore when fans of a certain sports genre sees a new game, their immediate thoughts and desires are wishing that the game developer has created the game in the image they expect, especially if that said title is officially licensed. 2K Sports have been...
