Three new reviews for you this evening, and they’re linked by a theme of automotive mayhem… First up, we have Carmageddon, which caused quite a stir when it was first released – probably something to do with all the blood. The other major controversy in game-land during 1997 was Grand Theft Auto. We’ve already covered […]

Unofficial Turrican remake Old-skool 2D shooters aren’t something we write about much; the PC wasn’t well-regarded as a platform for such things, and to be honest I don’t think we’d have a lot to say about most of them anyway.

Hello all. Recently I completed Price of Persia: The Sands of Time. And it’s a rather fantastic game – breathtaking acrobatics, a misty-mythical Arabian-nights feel, and a good story too.

While the likes of Gran Turismo, Forza Motorsport and Project Gotham Racing are all pretty good games, there’s just something about doing laps of a circuit that I don’t find all that […]

Hello everybody, and welcome to our newest feature, the FFG journal. Some time ago now, in a bid to broaden the scope of the site beyond that of a sporadically-updated review site, we decided to include other general articles about gaming. Unfortunately, as regular visitors to the site (if there are any) will have noticed, […]
