Deus Ex: Human Revolution review
You are Adam Jensen, a retired police-man now in the employ of Detroit's largest corporation. Your previous effort in Detroit PD has enlightened you to the ways of the world. But also letting you see that as head of security of Sarif…

Independence War review
The great dream of space-flight! Romantic and glorious. But how would you actually fly a space-ship in completely dark space anyway? And how about spotting those incoming black dots travelling at near light speed, for example?

Rocket Jockey review
The rocket jockey theatrically loses the grip with one arm as the cable disengages, but hangs on valiantly around the improbable turn anyway. How does the rocket not start to rotate and spin out of control, you ask? Well, obviously the guy…

Lander review
"It takes subtlety to succeed here. But it is extremely rewarding when you do, and float through the maze-like levels inside the planet's surface - or through the canyons and caves. The eerie space-music perfectly accompanies you on the…

Lair review
The game from this point on expertly goads you into taking on the role of the righteous Asylian dragon knight Rohn in his quest to stamp out the barbarian Mokai hordes. Even to the point where our hero proclaims fateful phrases such as…

Dungeon Siege III review
(...)That the animation and fighting stances are easy to to look at, as well as entertaining to play with helps as well. It is fun, it is interesting - and I'm buggered about it because it's so easy to have the deep group-dynamics that…

White Knight Chronicles II review
(...)Huge monsters and fire-breathing clowns trample the castle halls, events become far too epic for the Royal Castle Guard to handle. And finally the huge Armor chained to the wall in the Castle's treasure vault springs to life and saves…

Tumble review
Building with blocks in a clinically pure environment, and then resetting the mess with the push of a button. It sounds an awful lot like a parent's dream come true. In spite of that, is Tumble still fun?

inFAMOUS review
McGrath comes from humble beginnings, he's nothing special, he doesn't think much of politics or Empire City. Cole has no secret wish for saving the world, or any dramatically suppressed demons. Nor strange personality quirks that beg to…

Top Spin 4 review
If the aim for a good sports-game is to allow the player to experience TV-moments on the screen, only without all the waits and commentary. And while being able to influence the events believably – without needing the years and years of…

Yakuza 4 review
“And the unarmed running hitman as Kazuma Kiryu, the legendary former fourth chair of the Tojo clan, who now runs an orphanage as a tax-shelter at Okinawa. Very well. As he enters the roof, the 100 billion yen and the third gunman also…

Speedball II: Brutal Deluxe review
So there are eight directions on the joystick, with the four clicking on and off. There's one fire-button. You can hold it down for different lengths of time before you release it.

Take 'em Out review
The intriguing story of police-cadet Murphy is not told in this game. In fact, the direct writing is almost non-existent. There is a dire tune being played on the loading screens, along with an equally dire and business-like voice…

Moonstone review
“The Gods Pause for a Moment to Contemplate Your Fate”. A subtext on a loading screen. The chanting and the weather in the realm have been bad for a while. But now they grow more terrible as the Druids of the realm summon their bravest…

Mass Effect review
Table of Contents: Space Music The Story Arc The Choices The Shooting Homage Epilogue The earth obscures the sun in a mix of motion capture, pre-generated animation, and game-engine rendered overlays. It's a pleasant effect, taking the…

Table of Contents: The Menus Hidden Options The Driving The Dynamic Lighting What will successfully create a sense of realism - and therefore immersion in driving games is very subjective, I think. Perhaps more so than with any other type…

WarioWare: Smooth Moves review
Some time during the evening it strikes me that - at least when seen through the foam in the bottom of the glass - Smooth Moves is a brilliant game. It is also a brilliant production, in terms of economical and efficient development - the…
