Matt Matthews from next-gen.biz has written a compelling article asking why the Wii has the lowest review scores around.

This week Yahtzee takes his bad attitude out on Sim City Societies, which lets face it we all knew would not be his cup of tea so I don’t know why he even did it.

I checked with …
This is possibly the worst reason I have seen anywhere to attempt to justify the 5GB install that DMC4 and Hot Shots Golf need on the PS3. Apparently according to TheBitBag and Torrence Davis the reason that PS3 owners should love the 5GB installs is because it will reduce noise and wear and tear on the Blu-Ray drive. Now forgive …
Now this is going to be interesting. After the furore that Resistance: Fall of Man caused by fighting in Manchester Cathedral you would be forgiven to think that they would avoid any possible religious icons in the next iteration of the game. However you would be completely wrong. When CEO of Insomniac games, Ted Price, was asked whether they were …
