The year 2011 in game covers
Throughout the year we have been looking at the inside of the cover of the games, more precisely what’s on the disc. I thought it was time to look on what’s outside the cover. While some are horrendous, I decided to refrain from pointing them out and instead looking at what have been good. I’ll [...]

Tekken Hybrid
While the world outside of Japan waits with anticipation for Tekken Tag Tournement 2 hitting the shelves for us to hoard, Namco decided to treat the fans with something out of the box. The live-action movie that we saw last time was really a buzz-kill and far from the actual universe in the Tekken series. [...]

Halo: Combat Evolved – Anniversary Edition
Unbelievably it was now over a decade since our humble original Xbox first saw Bungie’s Halo, and now 343 Industries has given us just what we craved – no, not a new title in the Halo franchise, but an old one, lovingly remastered, in both video and sound, and ready to absorb us all for [...]

Dance Central 2
Dance Central 2 is the sequel to Harmonix’s very successful Kinect launch title (and is truthfully what made me buy a Kinect in the first place). The good news is its successor does not disappoint! When you first load up the game you will see the styling is very much the same as the first [...]

Kinect Sports Season Two
We’ve had our hands on the sequel to Kinect Sports, and it sure was fun to try out with a couple nice people in a friendly competition. Season Two have the same graphics, the same sounds, the same way of playing. They basically kept what was good and refined the gameplay with enhanced movements, better [...]

Weekend Play Issue #2
I’m going to play ball this weekend – and I don’t mean it dirty. While I don’t play sports games alone for hours on end, I love playing it with friends and family, and Fifa is by far one of the easiest games to persuade with – even for a non-gamer. Fifa 12 is by [...]

Luigi gets a chance to stand on his own two feet
It’s finally time for Luigi to have some well-earned time in the spotlight, after 28 years of standing in Mario’s shadow; this will only be the 3rd title with Luigi as the main character. Hopefully Luigi will really shine this time. The new title from Nintendo “Luigi’s Mansion: 2” features Luigi, once again, on the [...]

Portal 2
Imagine if Jim Carry, Ellen DeGeneres, an indie game studio and Leonhard Euler, the inventor of Sudoku, had a love child? Well, Portal 2 may be just that. Sequels are renowned to be bad, at most they achieve an “It was okay, but the first one was better”- reaction. With the release of Portal 2 [...]
