Review: Singularity
Singularity is certainly not great, and will probably fall out of consciousness by next year, but it’s definitely not a bad game. What we have here is the definition of a game that is just high enough above average to deserve and hopefully enjoy some success. eGamer Rating Addictive: For a while Worth The Time: [...]
Review: Tiger Woods PGA Tour 11
eGamer Rating: Addictive: Yes Worth The Time: Yes Reasoning: To play a sports game, especially golf, in the first place means you have time to waste, but in a good way. Things Loved: Everything. Things Hated: Not exactly a “hate”, but the golfer’s animations could be better. They are good, but lacking. Reasons To Buy: [...]
Review: Naughty Bear
Naughty Bear is an inadequate attempt at making a game with dark humour. It’s lacking, shallow, bugged and pointless. I would love to just leave it there and not have to pour vinegar on my fresh wounds but I suppose I do need to explain myself. eGamer Rating Addictive: Initially but ultimately no Worth The [...]
Review: Demon’s Souls
From Software delivers excellence with Demon’s Souls, an RPG that can stand tall amongst the best. eGamer Rating: Addictive: Yes, incredibly so Worth The Time: Yes, unquestionably Things Loved: The huge depth of the game, the challenge involved, online co-op, the excellent system where single player is blended with online, the awesome boss battles Things [...]
Review: Transformers: War For Cybertron
High Moon Studios has created a Transformers game that honours, rather than defiles, the Transformers name. Finally, we can say that this is the ultimate Transformers adventure. eGamer Rating: Addictive: Yes, although it’s only the multiplayer that is Worth The Time: Yes if you’re in it for the multiplayer. But if you’re a Transformers fan, [...]
Review: Red Dead Redemption
Red Dead Redemption delivers extreme Rockstar greatness, but also carries some Rockstar stupidity. Due to a massive delay in receiving this game, the world cup and, of course, the holidays, my review is dropping in really late, as you can see. Anyway, better late than never they always say, and here is the review, since [...]
Review: Asus G51 Gaming Laptop
When I heard about the Asus G51 being the younger brother to the very impressive G71 I had thoughts that it might lack power where it would not be able to compete with other gaming laptops. At heart, however, I knew that this was wrong. After sitting down with the G51 laptop I can only [...]
Review: UFC Undisputed 2010
eGamer Rating: Addictive: Yes Worth The Time: Yes Reasoning: Kicking your friends ass is always worth it. Even if it’s only virtual. Things Loved: Realistic; Good commentary; Loads of realism; Knock-Outs; Can optimise almost everything; Quick & Easy tournament setup; Career mode is actually fun Things Hated: Load screens; No Steve Mazzagatti (referee); Knock-Outs; Serious [...]
Review: Blur
eGamer Rating: Addictive: Yes Worth The Time: Yes — for a while, if you win Reasoning: Blur is seriously addictive. It’s not like any other racer. Speed doesn’t get you anywhere. However, if you don’t win enough it starts to become slightly annoying and perhaps a bit boring. Give it a break and you’ll definitely [...]
Review: Pure Football
Addictive: Initially (No) Worth The Time: No Things Loved: Great celebration animations, slow-mo moments Things Hated: Bad gameplay, lack of depth, cannot always see the ball (!), too easy, poor character models, poor online support Final Conclusion: Not worth your time. Ubisoft is not best known for its sports games and indeed those that it [...]
Review: Split/Second – Velocity
With Split Second, Black Rock Studios has delivered adrenaline rush, action racing at its best. eGamer Rating: Addictive: Yes, very much so Worth The Time: Definitely Things Loved: The adrenaline rush when playing, the near perfect blend between fast paced racing and exciting action, the fantastic game modes, the brilliant racing cars, multiplayer, amazing race [...]
Review: Alan Wake
eGamer Rating: Hours Enjoyed: 9 – 10 Hours Hated: 1- 2 Things Loved: Action packed; good cinematics; memorable cut scenes; girl in underwear; easy controls; pretty effects Things Hated: Horrible lip syncing; the forest; stamina problems; Alan Wake — himself Reasons To Buy/Not Buy: I’d definitely recommend a buy as you’ll probably find yourself playing [...]
Review: Modnation Racers
Addictive: Yes Worth The Time: Well it depends what you consider a good way to spend time. IMO yes. Reasoning: It is pure fun and freedom. You if you can dream it you can make it on Modnation Racers. Things Loved: Creative Freedom, Online, Career, In-Game Camera, Menu. Things Hated: Servers, you play Russian Roulette [...]
Review: Alpha Protocol
eGamer Rating: Addictive: Yes, it can be Worth The Time: Yes, but really only for those who are extremely into action RPGs similar to Mass Effect Things Loved: The narrative, the characters, the way you really do feel like a spy, how your choices influence the game Things Hated: The large amounts of technical bugs, [...]
Review: Prince Of Persia: The Forgotten Sands
eGamer Rating: Hours Enjoyed: 2-3 hrs Hours Hated: 6-7 hrs Loved: Breathtaking landscapes, platforming, epic final sequence Hated: boring plot, repetitive combat, lack of overall effort Reasons To Not Buy: Tedious and repetitive, poor presentation, sub-par compared to other PoP games. Prince of Persia’s Sands of Time trilogy will probably go down as one of [...]
Review: SBK X Superbike World Championship
eGamer Rating: Addictive: No/slightly Worth The Time: No Reasoning: Driving around a track may be fun to some, with this only pro bikers, maybe, will enjoy it. Things Loved: Physics, Bikes Performance, Arcade Things Hated: Handling, Majority of the game Reasons To Buy/Not Buy: To buy or not to buy, that is the question. Answer: [...]
Review: Super Street Fighter IV
Street Fighter IV made quite an impact when it was released in February 2009 last year. It was hard to believe how a fighting game that had been out of the picture for about a decade could come back and not only revive the entire series, but outdo everything it has done before. Now, a [...]
Review: Dead to Rights: Retribution
Dead to Rights: Retribution, from Volatile Games, is a reimagining of the third person action game Dead to Rights, released back in 2002, which once again features Grant City police officer Jack Slate and his canine companion Shadow as the main duo. The Dead to Rights franchise has never really been a top one in [...]
Review: Splinter Cell Conviction
As I stealthily sneak my way towards the target, I spot 2 bogey’s ahead of me with a floodlight covering the front. I slowly mark my prey in the order that best protects me. I then execute it. With a flourish and in a blur of movements the targets are dead and I am bathed [...]
Review: Just Cause 2
Let’s start off by saying what Just Cause 2 is like. It’s a lot like GTA, it’s a lot like a James Bond movie, it’s a lot like Prototype and it’s a lot like nothing else I’ve ever seen before. I must admit that I have not finished the game in the true sense but [...]
