First off, here’s a wizardly word of warning: Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban is being released on all the consoles and the PC. You’d expect all four games to be the same, but there are vast differences between the consoles’ version and the PC one. TOP NOTCH To all intents and purposes, the [...]

What on earth would Tom Clancy do if the world suddenly decided to stop all the hostility and, y’know, everyone just tried to get along? No more trouble hotspots, everyone being the best of chums? Luckily for him there’s more chance of a Spice Girls reunion, so those Rainbow fellas will probably be storming embassies [...]

The speed. Lord, the speed. Takedown could have the best environments yet seen in a racing title but you simply won’t have time to notice them. The game’s opening sections, even for seasoned Burnout aficionados, are utterly bewildering. There is a wealth of fresh information to take in – new road structures and a new [...]

Outside of a few nitpicky graphical issues, Capcom’s classic game compilations, released over the last year, are among the best on the market. No, this isn’t terribly surprising considering the company’s rich arcade heritage.

One only has to imagine all of the red tape, legalese, investment concerns, zoning issues, contract disputes, liability claims, piles of vomit everywhere… you might be dead before you get around to designing your first attraction.

The Turtles are back, but Vanilla Ice isn’t. That’s probably for the best, to be honest. Anyway, to complement the new CGI-heavy Turtles film that’s out this year, Ubisoft is resurrecting the pizza-eating dudes. Apparently the new film is a bit darker and edgier than previous Turtles fare (harking back to the original comics and [...]

We’ve been invited to check out Medal of Honor: Airborne time and time again. This latest visit, though, put us in touch with a brand new level that really showcased what separates the game from its competition. Based on an actual German construction, the Flaktürme, or Flak Tower – a massive gun-emplaced tower designed to [...]

There’s no time to worry about rules when you’ve got half a ton of defensive lineman lumbering towards you, intent on crushing the last breath from your body just to stop you carrying a pointy ball over a painted line. So NFL Street is the American football game that tears up the majority of the [...]

What’s a minor thug to do? You’re on the bottom rung of your criminal gang, overlooked and underpaid. Consequently, while on some shady activity at the, erm, zoo, you don’t feel bad about sneaking off for a look at the piranha fish. You’re just admiring the flesh-eating beasts when, suddenly, a psycho in a big [...]

Unreal is undoubtedly the campest game franchise ever. With spandex, crotchless chaps and shoulder pads (and that’s just the male characters), this new Xbox version is the pinnacle of drag queen fashion. What’s hilarious is that the developers probably don’t even realise it’s as tasteless as Elton John’s wardrobe. Still, if camp gladiators are your [...]
