One of the most polished games every released.
(PC)
Originally written September 2007.Bioshock gets so many things right in an industry where the majority of games feel rushed. The incredible amount of polish on display is impressive and shocking, like the developer had all the time in the world to make it perfect. Despite how awesome the art direction, ...

Please finish your game before releasing.
(PC)
Originally written May 2008.Straight up, Age of Conan is a mess. A technical disaster right through to some poor design choices and (most importantly) a forced release, resulting in an incomplete game. No self-respecting developer would ever willingly launch a product with so many areas unfinished, unless the publisher made ...

Definitely worth playing.
(PC)
Crysis Warhead is more or less episodic gaming. It's true Warhead doesn't pickup where the original game left, but it does compliment the original in a strange way. In Warhead you play as Psycho, who (if you played the first game) you'll remember was one of 4 other team members ...

I'm not sure how I feel about echochrome.
(PSN)
What is there to say about echochrome? It's very straight forward and pretty much all descriptions available are quite accurate to what you'll get with the final product. Is it possible for a game to be so straight forward it does not feel rewarding, thus filling such a game with ...

What's missing?
(PSN)
For many, a high-definition remake of a classic game from childhood is the perfect nostalgia trip. Developers can shore up the stuff less than classic, lost to memory that plague such revisits, keeping the pristine thoughts from back in the day intact. Sadly a revisit to the 1942 franchise hasn't ...

Frustrating.
(PSN)
PixelJunk Eden is an oxymoron. Everything about Eden hammers into you, scribbling across the surface of your eyes and penetrating the depths of your ears to produce an experience both lucid and surreal. So what the hell happened? Eden is clearly a game about exploration and platforming, one that eagerly ...

Fucking Epic.
(PC)
If I could use one word to describe Crysis it would be epic. Not a gorgeous or computer killing game, just epic. Everything about this game is epic. A lot of people complain about the open level break-down after the halfway point, degenerating into standard sci-fi FPS fare, but so ...

Can I say fresh enough?
(PSN)
Everyday Shooter is the freshest dual-stick shooter I've played in a long time. Yes it has only 8 levels but they're a lot more difficult than other recent releases in the genre, such as Super Stardust HD. In addition to superb game play, the incredible art design makes playing through ...

Most players will know what they're getting into.
(PSN)
There ain't a lot that can be said about Super Stardust HD, the concept is simple and straight forward. It's a shooter and most would know exactly what they're getting into when picking up the controller. The graphics (especially colour and effects) are excellent and the music plays along with ...

Burnout Paradise is a bold change that will either be hit or miss
(PS3)
Criterion's decision to depart from the tried and true formula that has made Burnout a popular series among gamers world wide was a gamble, a gamble that did and didn't pay off; depending who you ask. There are many series fans who dislike a lot of features Burnout Paradise brings ...
