Killzone 2 took a lot of flack because its graphics weren’t so hot (despite what the original trailers suggested…) but was forgiven (a little bit…) because it had a great story and likable characters. Well, Sony and game developer Guerilla obviously decided to fix that particular imbalance with Killzone 3 by making the graphics utterly […]

As a massive James Bond fan it pains me to say this, but the latest 007 game to appear on the next-gen consoles – Blood Stone 007 – just isn’t very good… Vastly derivative and plagued with niggling annoyances, Blood Stone 007 is particularly frustrating simply because it could have been so good.

So, after a massive five year wait, Gran Turismo 5 is finally here. Originally slated to be one of the PS3’s launch titles, GT5 has been delayed constantly to the point where it was in danger of becoming irrelevant in the face of ever-improving competing racing games.

But it bored me. I could never understand the accolades it collected, simply […]
Grand Theft Auto but without cars? Sounds crap, we know, but believe us; it isn’t…
Previously said to be an Xbox exclusive, Grand Theft Auto: Episodes From Liberty City has now magically, through the power of “lots of money to be made”, finally popped up on a PlayStation near you. Comprising, as the title suggests, of two separate ‘episodes’ – each available separately for download through the PlayStation Store, or […]
