What we think about games
With all these new, smash-hit Winter titles having come out in the past month or so, you’d think those games would be taking up the majority of my time spent gaming during any given week for the foreseeable future. I too was expecting that to be the case, and even though I’ve played a lot [...]
I think a good place to start here would be to thank any of of our subscribers that are still here reading this after we all took a sudden, unannounced writing break over the holiday season. I can promise that over the next few weeks we are planning lots of new content to hopefully kick-start [...]
Before I start with my GOTY 2012 article, I must stress that I haven’t yet had the chance to properly play through Mass Effect 3, Assassin’s Creed 3, Dishonored, Journey, as well as a few other titles that have been regularly appearing on GOTY lists, so if you don’t see a game you were expecting [...]
I say revisited, what I actually means is that I have just recently played and completed Borderlands and was looking for an excuse to talk about how fantastic it is. I think for anyone that has played the first installment of the gun-toting madness that is Gearbox Software’s Borderlands that excuse will be enough, and if you [...]

Remember that time when I said I was pretty much finished with World of Warcraft? Yea.. about that. After a couple of weeks hiatus from all things gaming I am back to craic with a vengeance. First on my list is the 4th expansion to World of Warcraft, Mists of Pandaria. Since starting here at [...]
Compared to other video games representing sports in the industry, such as FIFA and Madden NFL, most Motorsport titles based on an official championship, such as Formula 1 and the WRC, don’t see the light of retail until the back-end of the season the devs are working from. There are only six race weekends left in the [...]
Space is a cold, lonely place bereft of useful signage, accurate maps or friendly locals who can point you in the right direction should you find yourself lost amongst the stars. It is of course vast, ever expanding, and for the most part completely unexplored which makes it the perfect backdrop for a game like [...]
In the world of video gaming, Transformers titles have been very few and far between, as well as not being all that great. So it was to the fandom’s delight when High Moon Studio gave the franchise a little kick on the gaming front, with their launch of War for Cybertron, back in June 2010.
