For my second review this week I will be tackling Socom 4, the latest installment of the series from the guys over at Zipper Interactive. As a fan of the original titles for the PS2 and later versions on the PSP I was excited to hear about the decision to put a single player campaign [...]
After what I would call a dismal winter for games with barely any huge titles coming out, Dead Space 2 being the only notable title I can think of. Spring has finally arrived and with it has come a flood of big name titles. Kicking things off we had Dragon Age 2, Homefront, and this [...]
Quicklik is a gorgeous little Korean puzzle game in which you match corresponding images to whatever you’re tasked with. The game has two modes; Classic and Crazy Mode. The second comes with a warning that it is meant for experienced players only and starting this mode you’ll see why. Classic Mode is slower paced than [...]
Fitting right into the addictive ‘match-3’ puzzler mould, Pantheon is easy to play, fun and unputdownable. I may have created a neologism there but it does accurately express my feelings for this game. The concept of the game will be nothing new; match coloured diamonds into patterns by tapping them to get rid of them. [...]
With the 2010 holiday shopping season edging its way closer and closer, game developers have already begun the mad dash to release all the big triple “AAA” titles we have been waiting for. During this time a lot of my friends ask me what games I will be getting, or should they pick up Medal [...]
It’s another year and that can only be one thing, another Need for Speed game. EA have been somewhat unsure where to take the whole series of late, Shift and Nitro being two vastly different games, a stab at the arcade and a stab at the simulated. Now it’s time for EA to do what [...]
Following the success of the now what seems to be the annual “Summer of Arcade” event. Xbox this week kicked off “Game Feast”, in attempt to collect some more of our hard earned money on often fun games that end up severely lacking in the quantity department. In hopes to start the event off right [...]
To differentiate itself from the Wii at E3 imaginary VP of Sony Kevin Butler showed imagery of a man pummelling a guy to death using the Move controller. That game was The Fight. The Fight has a very gritty art style, mostly using grey and black hues to create a seedy under belly of bare [...]
This week I picked up Transformers: War for Cybertron, which was published by Activison and developed by High Moon Studios. This is High Moon’s third game, other releases include the 2005 vampire-western Dark Watch and the fairly well received, The Bourne Conspiracy, based on the Robert Ludlum authored, Bourne series of novels and films starring [...]

The iPhone 4 is 24% slimmer than the 3gs and at 9.3mm the slimmest smart phone in the world. iPhone 4g Feature Points: 24% Thinner than the 3gs Bluetooth GPS Stainless Steel shell Integrated Antennas Dual mics [...]
Black Hole is an iPhone ‘Path Management’ game from Clickgamer, the guys who brought us Angry Birds. Let me set the scene; The world is under attack from thousands of asteroids- all hope seems lost, but who can save the earth from this plight? The answer….. You. You are tasked to use a mad scientist’s [...]
Battleships is a game which hasn’t evolved, it hasn’t changed. There are probably thousands of fans who still play the board game and will be over the moon with ‘Warships’. ‘Warships’ itself is basically a repackaged version of the board game, it doesn’t set out to be groundbreaking – instead giving the oppurtunity to carry [...]
OK – so if you’re wondering what the concept of Mini Plane is – think the ‘Helicopter game’. The aim of the game is to keep your plane in the air for as long as possible. The longer you are in the air the more distance you can travel, press the screen to ascend and [...]
“GAME AND GAMESTATION ARE GOING FOR GOLD!” In addition to apologising for that terrible pun, Capcom UK is pleased to announce an exclusive partnership with Game and Gamestation. UK players looking for Resident Evil 5: Gold Edition should head to their nearest Game or Gamestation, and nowhere else. Resident Evil 5: Gold Edition is the [...]
