Hi all. After being conspicuously absent for three updates in a row, I’ve had a look at Giants: Citizen Kabuto. I obtained it from Good Old Games, a new digital-distrubution services dedicated to older PC games. A lot of their selection is of the roughly decade-old-vintage and, there are some quality items there like Operation […]

Waking up from the American dream
Hello. Some of you might be aware that there’s a Max Payne movie out. So in a topical(ish) update, I’ve taken a look at Max Payne 2: The Fall of Max Payne. I also went to see the film itself, so just in case you were waiting to see what we thought before you rushed […]
Another way to die
Hello. Another review, and another sequel – the ridiculously-named No One Lives Forever 2: A Spy in H.A.R.M.’s Way. There will be more, not sure when.
Here in my car, I feel safest of all
Good evening. It’s been a while, but unfortunately all we can offer for now is one new review. I’ve taken a look at the third (and hopefully final) Carmageddon game, TDR 2000. More later, perhaps soon (ish). Stay tuned.

Chariots of fire
This was meant to be a topical, Olympic-themed update, but somehow it didn’t happen that way. Anyway, if you’re a fan of the controller-bashing track and field games of old (or even if you aren’t) you might like tonight’s update – a review of The Games: Summer Challenge. More soon…
Guybrush and Indy
Hi all. We have a double helping of Lucasarts adventure goodness tonite! First up, Jo has reviewed Escape from Monkey Island for us. Meanwhile scooting back a few years earlier, I’ve looked at the classic Indy adventure Fate of Atlantis.
Then it fell apart, like it always does
We’ve got something new for you this evening. It’s a review of XIII, the amnesiac spy shooter from 2003. That’s right, I said 2003. That’s five years ago. Don’t say we didn’t warn you. Next week – a review of Zork. And Pacman.
Don’t see lights a flashin’, plays by sense of smell
Hello. No summer holidays for us, we’re staying inside with the curtains drawn, all in the name of retro-gaming. We’ve added one new review – of Codemasters’ Psycho Pinball.
London calling to the imitation zone
Wow, it’s a double-whammy of updates. I guess if we’d have been better organised we could have rolled it into one, but hey, it’s sort of more exciting this way. Anyway, we have one new review for you this evening, and the game in question is the cheerfully chaotic city-based racer Midtown Madness 2.
