It’s a goooooooaaaaaal

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.

Tony Daley is good at headers

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

Vous n’avez jamais connu aussi rapide, aussi renversant!

Hello! Just popping in with a quick review, of the 90s kart racer SuperKarts. More soon, I hope.

You have become a cult figure with the fans; they chant your name around the ground at every game

Hello there! Another review for you today, and what better way to complete a hat-trick of January reviews (groan) than with a football game? Some time ago I had a look at a mid-00s version of Football Manager. But what ever became of Championship Manager? Here’s a look at the 2006 edition. As Stoo mentioned last time, […]

In the Grim Darkness of the Far Future

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 […]

Move move move (The Red Tribe)

Hi everyone. Sometimes I just get the urge to play a really old football game. Most of them are quite bad, really, but there you go. Today’s review is of Manchester United Europe.

You kill a few men before a jury gives you permission to, and they fire you

Good evening. October seems to be a fairly productive month for us at FFG. No, not because it’s Halloween. (You know, that really isn’t such a big deal over here). Anyway, it’s been a little while, but we’ve got one of our discussion review features for you tonight. The game is Outlaws. Yee-haw! *fires guns […]

The fastest game on Earth

Hi everyone. I seem to be on a bit of a roll with these futuristic racers. Here’s another one for you: a game called Ballistics, from 2001. Thank goodness for Stoo and his Duke Nukem retrospective! Next time: something completely different.
