A rare find amongst upcoming PSP titles, Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker is garnering huge amounts of interests, but today’s release date announcement may disappoint those ready for the previously announced May release. Delayed until 8th June, and 18th June in North America and Europe respectively, the first Co-Op MGS experience is coming a little later than many had expected. [...]

Ask what game I’ve played more than any other over the past year and the answer would have to be Peggle. As puzzle games go, the simple but addictive peg smashing gameplay makes a good first impression. 4 hours later, you’ll be addicted to the fast paced, but tactical game from Pop Cap-developers of the [...]

Desperate Escape is the content I hate to love. The previous content, Lost in Nightmares, took a step back to the roots of survival horror leaving me both happy at this attempt at change and sad that there was something lacking. In some ways Desperate Escape is similar to it’s predecessor: it lasts less than two hours; it [...]

To be blunt, Hellemental is a time waster and nothing more. The controls aren’t intuitive, the icons are confusing and the instructions are anything but clear. The game looks polished, with more than acceptable 3D graphics and very fun, sparkly particle effects and a wide, well-realized diversity of creature designs. The sound design is actually really nice. [...]

With it’s minimalistic Zen inspired visuals, Fox Vs Duck is the latest game from Studio FungFung, the makers of one of my favourite games from last year, MiniSquadron. Coined as a micro-game, Fox Vs Duck is just that, a simple pick up and play distraction that you’ll find yourself coming back to again and again. The [...]

I’ve always had fond memories of the Resident Evil games. My fascination began as a kid when I found a beaten copy of the first game in the bargain bin of the Nottingham branch of Dixons. The first I merely watched my dad play; the second I finally plucked up the courage to step into [...]

Hinted at for the past few months, and nearly confirmed through some sneaky updates to the original game, Portal 2 has now been officially confirmed on the newest cover of Game Informer. Unlike its predcessor, which took pride of place in The Orange Box in 2007, Portal 2 will be a fully fledged standalone game. With the incredible [...]
