Resistance is an oddly polarising franchise. Insomniac’s PS3 launch title FPS has made many fans, with as many people just not getting it. I sit somewhere in the middle, having played and enjoyed Resistance but not quite afflicted by the almost religious fervour some of its proponents carry. If you might recall, the first trailer we saw of the recently …

Confession time: I had about as much desire to play this game as I do the desire to nail my nuts to a table every morning at breakfast. As if Kinect games weren’t embarrassing enough, I was now tasked with reviewing one that centred on possibly my least favourite activity: dancing. Flipping through the track list in the start-up menu …

Homefront, THQ’s near-future first person shooter focuses on the speculative unrest caused by Korean Invasion of US soil, one of a few games that brings war home.

As such you can expect to have to do all sorts of leans, twists and leg lifts in order to glide your way down various slopes and across multiple settings. It would be a heck of a lot of fun too if the game’s controls weren’t fundamentally stuffed. In all …

So many, in fact, that Guerrilla Games has thought it necessary to release a list of them, complete with pictures, categories, factions and sight specs. The list even covers some of the equipment you’ll get to muck around in during the game; equipment like the StA-X6 Jetpack, which I still think looks like a flying mechanical spider of spikey death. …

The PSP Go is available for all to see at rAge at the moment and is obviously a pretty big draw card for the gadget lovers amongst us.
