  • Wheelman
    Vin Diesel has been quite a busy guy lately. He has two games that just came out as well as a new movie that has just hit theaters. One of his new games is Wheelman. A lot of questions surrounded this title as it was continually delayed and some wondered whether it would ever come out at all. It is always dangerous when a game enters that territory because you never quite...

  • Mortal Kombat vs. DC Universe
    Mortal Kombat vs. DC Universe is the source of mixed emotions. I am a huge Mortal Kombat fan and was part of the group who was against Midway “censoring” Mortal Kombat so that they could use the DC Universe license. After going through the game my feelings remain unchanged. The story mode of this game offers two different perspectives. You can go through the story and...

    Gaming for the Adrenalin Junkie
    Experience the rush of reaching a final table at a major poker tournament, where the prize money reaches 6 figures and you need nerves of steel to keep your cool. Certainly not for the faint-hearted when your own money is at stake.  Poker games for all kinds of players from experienced pros to beginners starting out on a new adventure.
  • TNA iMPACT!
    Going into TNA Impact I had high hopes this title would revitalize what has otherwise become a stagnant genre the past few years. The past few WWE titles have suffered from the Madden syndrome in that you could only really consider each year’s version an incremental increase. All the signs leading up to Impact’s release pointed to the fact that we were indeed going to...

  • NBA Ballers: Chosen One
    As a kid I always loved arcade games. Going to the seaside as a child doesn’t conjure up images of sandcastles and ice-cream in my mind, more images of persuading my Dad to part with £5 so I could go on a slot-machine spending frenzy. Kick & Run, Hit The Ice, Final Blow, WrestleMania and NBA Jam were all firm favourites of mine (amongst many others). I’ve always...

  • Stranglehold
    When action carries the name of John Woo behind it, you know you are in for a treat… couple that with Chow Yun Fats on-screen character that is Inspector Tequila and that treat gets a whole lot stickier with a tonne of bullets and blood. Killing shouldn’t be this much fun… but in Stranglehold it is and the fun never stops. Lock and Load and get ready to kick ass John Woo...

  • Unreal Tournament 3
    There was once a time when porting a successful PC FPS game to a console led to major disappointment. Half Life and Half Life 2 (the latter being the earlier XBOX release, not the new Orange Box) were big disappointments, where they clearly worked much better with a keyboard and mouse and the vastly improved hardware that the PC afforded them. There was even a sub-standard...
