And so we come to the end of this anniversary series of articles. We’ve gone from a glossy video-laden epic, to a flawed movie spin-off, via whatever football or racing games happened to be cheap that week. In the last piece, it all got slightly serious as I talked a bit about Deus Ex and […]

Good evening. In a rare case of us actually covering successive games in a series in the right order and in a relatively timely fashion, here’s a review of Striker ’95.

Our weekly series continues, as I take a look back at some of the games I played during the site’s first few years. If you’ve missed any of the previous pieces, go here for the first, or find them all here. Hopefully if you’ve read this far you’ve enjoyed these articles. Part four is about […]

Hi there. It’s time for some midweek football action, with our review of Striker.

As part of the site’s 15-year anniversary, I’m doing a few articles looking back at games I covered for FFG in the early days.

As regular readers will know, we’re not the most frequently updated of sites, and so any time spent looking back at, and/or rehashing, old content is time […]

Hello everyone, today we have a rare review from myself. A little while back I wrote about lesser-known first-person shooters of the 90s; so here’s an obscure title from the following decade: Warhammer 40000: Fire Warrior. Also if you’ve not read it already: last week Rik and I discussed the 2006 adventure game Dreamfall: The […]

Hello all. Several years ago I wrote about the adventure game The Longest Journey. Today, in the latest of our series of discussion reviews, we look at the sequel, Dreamfall. The mid 2000s were a quiet period in the history of adventures, and many thought the traditional point and click-based approach was dead, so this […]
