Red Dead Redemption won the hearts of many gamers this year when it released to great review scores and managed to sell a horse-cart load of copies to boot. While DLC packs have been released since launch, the one pack that the game was sorely missing was a taste of more of the single player action. Instead of doing something …
One of the most hyped titles before anyone had their hands on the PlayStation Move was The Fight: Lights Out. It’s graphics were gritty and hardcore and this was the title that was going to bring motion control fighting to the hardcore fans.

Frontline Studio’s Duke games were a shining bastion of Nukem hope …
I loved LittleBigPlanet and I love Sackboy – he’s just so gosh-darn cute you can’t help loving him. One thing I love more, however, is the decidedly dark but fascinating LIMBO. I f*****g loved LIMBO… LOVED it. So what happens when two of my all-time favourite platformers collide? I get ridiculously excited and reminded just how unbelievably versatile the customisation …
I received an email from Activision this morning stating that it had 3 3D screenshots inside… now I don’t have some fancy monitor on my laptop that shows 3D and while I do have some awesome 3D glasses that can make even Isaiah Mustafa look like a geek I didn’t think they would work on my little Toshiba. But I …
