Turba – The Verdict

Music makes the world go round, or so we’re told. It certainly seems to be an adage for many ‘casual’ games released on Steam lately, as we’ve seen with titles like Audiosurf and Beat Hazard using your music to create new gameplay experiences. Now Turba gets in on the act by combining music with the [...]

Prince of Persia: The Forgotten Sands – The Verdict

Most people think time is like a river, that it takes a team of workmen and an army of earthmoving vehicles to restructure, but I have seen the face of time and I can tell you they are wrong.

Singularity – The Verdict

I’ve decided against better judgment that I will make up a word in this review, keep an eye out for it. It’s very much needed as Singularity is quite a “mish-mash” game, but stick with me as it’s also quite wonderful. Raven have done most things right and only a couple of things wrong, keep [...]

Batman: An Issue of Indentity

Posted on 11 December 2008 by Phill Cameron. Posted in ArticlesComments (2)

There’s a problem facing the new Batman game, Arkham Asylum, and it’s the same one that’s faced pretty much any incarnation of the Dark Knight since he was first conceived. In fact, it’s one that faces most super heroes that exist in their own continuity and universe that have existed for any long period of [...]

I have an idea for a little game, a Flash game perhaps. This might turn out to become a feature, it might be a one-off. I imagine this is what the main menu would look like:

My PC Hardware Ramble

Posted on 09 December 2008 by Chris Evans. Posted in ArticlesComments (6)

PC hardware, it is one of the most infuriating things about being a PC gamer at times, but it is also one of the most rewarding. Earlier this year I built myself a nice new system, I got myself a Quad-Core (Q6600) with 2GB RAM on a nice shiny new Asus P5K motherboard. However I [...]

There is The Plan. You stick to The Plan. The Plan is boss, it dictates all that you do and God help you if you divert from it. The Plan works, and when things all go wrong there is only one person to blame, and that is yourself. Give yourself a good hard long look [...]

Global Conflicts: Latin America Review

Posted on 07 December 2008 by DuBBle. Posted in ReviewComments (1)

If Serious Games were to take the form of an anthropomorphic animal from an 80s before-church-on-Sunday cartoon, they would be Willy Fogg from Around the World with Willy Fogg. Before I sat down, cross legged, uncomfortably close to the electric heater, with the bowl of Weetabix Mum had conjured, I would press the sticky button [...]

My gosh, we’ve spoken to a lot of people willing to speak to us as of late. Today, I think we’ve duly outdone ourselves, as we chitchat with a man in possession of the most wondrous willingness of all.

Years ago my parents bought what was at the time a new PC, it came with a few freebies, one of the best was Battlezone a game which mixed first-person combat elements with base control and resource management normally found in real-time strategy games.
