	Awesomenauts review (X360) Reviewed on May 06, 2012 Awesomenauts is easy to recommend simply because it’s so different from other experiences available on consoles. It brings in the competitive edge that makes online FPS games so popular but does something wholly different with it.	4/5
	Flotilla review (X360) Reviewed on March 09, 2012 I want you to understand just how inept a tactician I am so that you’ll understand the magnitude of my meaning when I say Flotilla makes me feel like I’m in Ender's Game. You won’t spend all day playing it, but you might find you come back every few weeks for a new adventure, and to kick a smug deer’s ass one more time.	4/5
	Bloody Good Time review (X360) Reviewed on December 21, 2011 Bloody Good Time gets a hearty endorsement as a unique and very affordable take on the deathmatch idea. Between its sense of humour and the variety of strategies available, there's a lot of room for this to be a truly great game.	4/5
	Dead Nation review (PS3) Reviewed on August 14, 2011 Dead Nation did something that I didn't think could be done anymore: it scared me with zombies.	4/5
	Tenchu Z review (X360) Reviewed on May 08, 2011 For all its faults, Tenchu Z is something all games should be but are increasingly often not: it is fun.	3.5/5
	Battlefield 1943 review (X360) Reviewed on November 08, 2010 In 1942, in Vietnam, in a fictionalised present day and even a century and a half into the future, the Battlefield series of games has provided exactly what the title suggests, and it was this very quality that sold me on Battlefield 1943. I had never played games online before and didn’t know whether I’d enjoy it, but as I ran along the top of a sun-baked ridge on Wake Island atoll, bombs screeching past overhead to spatter me in chunks of earth as tanks rolled by and my comrades sprinted for t...	4/5
	Body Harvest review (N64) Reviewed on November 07, 2010 The N64 library contains a reasonable share of classics, considering the lack of software support compared to the titan that was the Playstation. Many of these classics are well known: Zelda, Mario, Goldeneye, and so on. As in any field of entertainment, though, some classics are woefully overlooked. I direct your eye to Body Harvest, a game that may lack the glossy presentation and heavyweight pedigree of a game like Zelda, but makes up for it with imagination and ambition.	4/5
	Pirates! review (NES) Reviewed on November 06, 2010 Sid Meier is a name associated with strategy and management. Civilization, Colonization and Railroad Tycoon are among Meier’s better-known games, but before these monuments of intellectual gaming there was bloodthirsty high seas thievery in Pirates!	4/5
	Elite review (NES) Reviewed on July 30, 2010 Many years ago, before Star Fox made space wedges look badass, before developers realised that console games don't control like PC games, and before huge environments were the norm, there was Elite. Imagineer's spacefaring trade/combat quasi-sim is possessed of a uniqueness that prompts ambivalence.	3/5
	Mario's Tennis review (VB) Reviewed on April 24, 2010 Mario's Tennis is Mario’s Tennis. It’s what you’d expect. It's a basic tennis game featuring characters from the Mario series. Oddly, though, it's one of the better Virtual Boy games.	3.5/5
