From something relatively shiny, new and complicated, to something old, ugly and simple: it’s Micro Machines 2.

So Rockstar are working on a new Max Payne game. Not to doubt their pedigree, but I’m slightly troubled by some of the tidbits of news about the game that have emerged so far. There’s a picture of Max that makes him look like a Ukrainian boxer, which is troubling enough, but now they’ve announced […]

This one’s been a while in coming. In fact, I started on this review a couple of days before Good Old Games re-released the game and sparked a modest amount of excitement/revulsion across ‘the internet’. When your host is Lance Boyle, the game’s got to be MegaRace.

So the new Terminator movie came out over here yesterday. Frankly, you can’t move for advertisments and/or promotions – Pizza Hut is even doing a ‘Terminator Pizza’, for god’s sake. And every magazine and newspaper is quizzing Christian Bale on why he called the DP of the film “f*ckin’ amateur” (he’s a nice guy, though, […]

Hello! Yes, that’s right: you wait a whole month for a genuine update, then two come along at once. It’s like London buses (or something). Anyway, following hot on the heels of Stoo’s Baldur’s Gate review, here comes something completely unrelated – I’ve taken a look at Rockstar’s racing game Midnight Club II. There’s more […]

Just when you thought we’d probably had enough of games based around following police procedure, we’re back once again, with a review of Jim Walls’ Blue Force. I can categorically state that we have had enough of them now. And we will never, ever, ever be reviewing Police Quest: SWAT. Ever. Next time, something good.

Hello. After our last few updates, we’ve started to tire of fighting crime ‘by the book’. What about the world of criminals who operate above the law? One man can make a difference. Providing, of course, he has an indestructible super-car at his disposal. Now you can be that man (sort of) – if you […]

Sometimes I buy the gaming magazine Edge. It’s supposedly the magazine for ‘serious’ gamers, which I like to think I am – perhaps that’s why I buy it – but almost every time I do, I come across something that makes me think it isn’t aimed at people like me at all. Such as this […]

So, just finished Fahrenheit. It was good stuff, actually – flawed, yes – but still very, very good. I didn’t even mind the sub-Nickelback “rawk” that played over the end credits. I’m tempted to say that it’s unlike any game I’ve played, although a couple of things tell me stop short of making such a […]
