The Depths of Tolagal review (PC)Reviewed on February 01, 2015Suffers from a lack of imagination. |

FIFA Soccer 11 review (X360)Reviewed on December 04, 2010FIFA 11 retains all of what made FIFA 10's engine great, apart from making penalties more of a bother than they need to be, but a lack of meaningful improvements, particularly in its game modes, means that it feels like I'm paying full price mostly just for updated rosters and kits. |

Rock Band 3 review (X360)Reviewed on November 08, 2010One of the biggest complaints about simulated rock has been that jamming with plastic instruments just isn’t the same as playing a real instrument. For me, that’s missing the point; these sorts of games have always been more about having pure and utter fun. But Harmonix has spent the last two years addressing this, and while the basic premise of Rock Band 3 has a familiar feel to it--play a bunch of songs until you become a superstar--it's also the most innovative and complete rhythm game yet. |

Greed Corp review (X360)Reviewed on March 20, 2010Once you have mastered the basics of the game and can minimise the number of wrong button presses, Greed Corp is a solid, if unspectacular, strategy title at 800MSP. |

The King of Fighters XII review (X360)Reviewed on October 11, 2009There are better fighting games out there today, and if you really insist on wanting to check this series out, don’t start with this one. |

Build-a-lot review (DS)Reviewed on September 23, 2009Build-a-lot is actually pretty easy once you get the hang of it – and also repetitive. |

Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D's Stardust Accelerator: World Championship 2009 review (DS)Reviewed on June 25, 2009If you’re a Yu-Gi-Oh fan and know the ins and outs of the rules, you’ll most likely find a decent title in World Championship 2009. But, if your experience with the trading card franchise is non-existent, you’re going to have a much tougher time playing through and enjoying the game. |

Runaway: The Dream of the Turtle review (DS)Reviewed on October 31, 2008A well made adventure with mostly enjoyable puzzles and a distinct, goofy personality that deserves your attention. Don’t let the silly title or the cel-shaded look fool you. |

Powershot Pinball Constructor review (DS)Reviewed on May 05, 2008As much as the concept of creating your own tables sounds really appealing, the editor is so lacklustre and limiting that it may as well have not existed. And if I’m judging Powershot Pinball Constructor as an ordinary pinball title, its completely uninspiring and sleep-inducing gameplay makes it impossible to recommend. |

Football Manager 2008 review (PC)Reviewed on December 24, 2007You’ll tell yourself that you’ll only play one more match, only to play three more. One thing that hasn’t changed about the series is its scary ability to draw you in and keep you addicted. |

The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass review (DS)Reviewed on November 15, 2007At its best, Phantom Hourglass is pure fun. The innovative touch controls provide a fresh take on the standard Zelda fare, and that alone was enough to revitalise my dwindling interest in the series. |

Sherlock Holmes: The Awakened review (PC)Reviewed on May 30, 2007Remember playing Grim Fandango or The Longest Journey and getting stuck? Remember trying to find that needle in the haystack by moving your mouse and covering every inch of your screen, hoping to come across a hotspot and finding a key item or initiating an action? Well, those haystacks have grown exponentially thanks to The Awakened being played in first-person. |

Guild II review (PC)Reviewed on November 16, 2006Welcome to 1400, a time when everyone bribes, spies, and blackmails for personal benefit. It just so happens, though, that life in medieval times isn’t everything it’s cracked up to be, as repetition quickly creeps in. |
