The King of Fighters 2006 review
When you buy this game, you will be holding in your hands the game that you really hoped the first one was. You will have the game that you wanted, that you needed, and that you deserved.

Tortuga:Two Treasures review
The damage engine in particular is exceptional, as you can see individual sails being ripped, and holes appearing in the sides of the ships due to cannon fire. Honestly, it is quite an impressive sight. The sea itself is handled very well…

Mercury Meltdown Revolution review
Ultimately, what makes Mercury Meltdown Revolution such a great game is the game design. Igntion Entertainment have crafted a superb example of player versus environment.

Just Cause review
Just Cause starts out in spectacular style ; It throws you out of a plane! As you hurtle towards the island of San Esperito, you can't help but think "This is cool." Upon landing, you are thrust straight into a gunfight with several…

The Sacred Rings review
There is nothing like a good adventure game. Unfortunately, Aura 2 is nothing like a good adventure game.

Earth Defense Force 2017 review
This is a game that will make you cry. You will take a look at the graphics, and come to the conclusion that they are simply not up to the job. They are, at best, last-gen. Character models are basic, animation is barely existant, detail…

WarioWare: Smooth Moves review
Videogames, when you get right down to it, are all essentially the same. There is movement, and conflict, towards an end. The methods of movement may alter, the conflicts may be disguised, and the ends are many and varied. However, even…

Wii Sports review
You step up to the tee. You observe the wind, take a look at the lie of the fairway, and aim your shot accordingly. Finally, you select your club, and after a couple of practise shots, you swing for all you are worth. FORE! This is where…

Meteos review
Planet Meteo is a big bully! While other planets all live in peace and harmony, this evil planet has a chip on its shoulder. More than just a chip, actually. Meteo has bricks on its shoulders. Multi-coloured bricks, called meteos, that the…

Yoshi Touch & Go review
Admit it. When you bought your DS, you looked at the plastic stick thing, and wondered just how much use it was actually going to be, didn't you? Oh, sure, the rec room in Super Mario 64 DS was good fun, particularly the catapult Wario…

OutRun 2 review
I went into the arcade just because that is what I do. If I see an arcade, no matter where, I am compelled to enter. The draw is too strong. The sounds, the colours, the feel, the smell ; it's too much for me to resist. Often times I am…

N2O: Nitrous Oxide review
Balance. In the end, that is what it is all about. Nothing more, nothing less, than balance. The balance between mere survival and selective genocide. The balance between reflexes and premeditated response. The balance between living, and…

P.N.03 review
It must be interesting to work for Capcom. Imagine, say, you were serving lunch. Chances are you get paid more for serving multiple customers at a time. Throw the customers their bread roll, and get bonus style points if you can bounce it…

Pokemon Colosseum review
It almost seems pointless even writing this review. Because, what we are dealing with is unquestionably the biggest franchise in videogames history. A franchise that has polarised the audience like none other before it. It can be said of…

Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time review
Nostalgia has this way of playing tricks on you. Things that you remember as being an official ''good thing'' are not always so when viewed through older (and possibly less easily impressed) eyes. Things that completely blew you away upon…

WarioWare, Inc: Mega Microgame$! review
There is a moment in this game that will live in infamy. One of the 200+ games is called simply 'Pick', and has you timing a button press so as to insert a finger up a nose. You will probably fail the first time simply because you are…

Burnout 2: Point of Impact - Developer's Cut review
*Note : This review is for the Xbox version of the game, but you could also apply it to all other versions. Just take out the bit about Live! support. Oh, and for the PS2, you only get 15 Crash Junctions.* One really has to wonder about…

Ikaruga review
''It goes without saying that you can avoid and escape from trial. But the true meaning of trial is to overcome such your weakness.'' It is extremely hard to know where to start when reviewing such a title. Because, the genre of…

Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 4 review
Someone should ban the use of the word 'extreme' when it comes to describing the sports chosen by people who wear baggy pants. Why is skateboarding more extreme than, say, darts? The risk of injury in darts is surely higher, considering it…

Virtua Fighter 4 review
There was a time when fighting games were as common as raindrops. Every day there were a few new ones released, mostly identikit, and mostly decidedly average affairs. This was due to the incredible success of Street Fighter 2, by Capcom…
