  • Mass Effect 2 - Kasumi: Stolen Memory DLC Review
    The first batch of Mass Effect 2 “paid for” content has arrived in the form of an extremely short playable mission covering a mysterious master thief and her quest to find the stolen memory core of her dead lover. Fitting into the Mass Effect 2 story arc like a pair of mustard-coloured M & S Y Fronts two sizes too small, the DLC can comfortably be polished...

  • Game Room - Review
    For a certain generation of gamers, there’s still something magical about arcades. Even the pale imitations you see dotted up and down crumbling seaside towns around the country, they still hold a fascination to me and I’ll always make a detour to check out what’s lurking at the back of an arcade amongst the toy-grabbers and pointless slot machines. Microsoft obviously...

  • Just Cause 2 - Review
    Bugs, we hate ‘em right? Getting in your egg salad at picnics, crawling into your spick and span lines of PHP code, or causing the most spectacular moments of fail in games. Bugs need love too though, and the bugs in Just Cause 2 are piffling compared to the acres of fun you can have with the game. Avalanche Studios have taken their original Just Cause concept, and spent...

  • Perfect Dark (XBLA) - Review
    Nostalgia is a tricky beast. In the world of videogames, it can feel like gamers constantly wear stylish pairs of rose-tinted spectacles when eulogising about classic retro titles. For instance, I’ve never fully understood the amount of love and respect that Bond-themed N64 FPS Goldeneye received back in the day, and continues to receive now. For a single-platform gamer,...

  • Scrap Metal - Review
    Top-down racers seem to be enjoying something of a revival on portable platforms at the moment but it’s been a while since someone’s done the whole thing justice on big and proper consoles. The delicious Mashed and Mashed: Fully Loaded on PS2 and Xbox 1 showed that this particular type of racer still has acres of life left in it, and so it’s good to see a developer...

  • Darwinia+ - Review
    Deep within an undulating neon landscape, a grim fight for survival takes place. Defenseless artificial constructs are being torn apart by an insidious virus. The “father” of these constructs stands by helpless, as they are brutally slain. This is where you come in. He needs your help badly. Darwinia first hit the PC a few years ago, and it’s quite a shock that it...

  • Chime - Review
    In the back of a noisy club, a bunch of Cheeto-eating stoners are adopting the primary pose of “The Chillout Room”. Arranged in a series of semi-natural shapes, throbbing space cadets nod their heads in silent reverie to a collection of tripped-out ambient tunes from the likes of Philip Glass, Moby, Paul Hartnoll, Markus Schulz and Fred Deakin. Shapes enter their blank...
