It Borderlands... WITH ZOMBIES!!! (X360)

You know what people like? Zombies! Nearly everyone loves them and their brain eating ways. All the shambling around also makes them pretty good target practise for first person shooters and the sight of a crowd of them exploding? Poetry in motion. Borderlands, the FPS/RPG from Gearbox which I loved ...

If you need to play a time traveling game, go play Braid (PC)

When you see a game from a developer who has no proven track record, you can feel a bit apprehensive in playing their game. In most cases this is a false feeling and instead the game is brilliant (see Spelunky). However in Darkest of Days that feeling is right ...

Prepare to drop! (X360)

(review originally posted at http://blog.hntdaab.co.uk) Its an undeniable fact – Halo is one of our favourite pastime’s landmark franchises, up there next to Metal Gear Solid, Mario and Half Life. It has sold over 27 million copies over all the games. In 2007, Halo 3 was released to “finish the ...

A Summer Blockbuster (PC)

Ah those Nazis. As if starting wars and genocide wasn’t enough, it also appears as the fiends were conducting supernatural experiments and creating new and deadly weapons based on science they don’t quite understand. Well that is what the team at Raven is insinuating. Wolfenstein is the latest in ...

Madness? THIS. IS. SHADOW. COMPLEX!!!! (XBLM)

Last year in the Summer of Arcade we got some absolutely brilliant games. Bionic Commando Rearmed, Braid and bringing up the rear, the phenomenal Castle Crashers, my all time favourite XBLA game. This year’s summer of arcade was less good. True we had ‘Splosion men at the start, but ...

GET TO DA CHOPPA'! (XBLM)

Ah, the Summer. A time for sitting outside in the sun, going to the pub or jetting away to parts foreign (though, as I write this its actually raining, but hey thats what you get in late August in Leeds). However, Microsoft missed the memo and instead thinks its ...

British Zombies!! None of Your Nazi Rubbish! (PC)

Developer – Tripwire Interactive Publisher – Tripwire Interactive Platforms – PC (Steam) Release – 14/05/09 I don’t know what it is, but I like zombies as enemies. There something slightly cool, yet also slightly scary about a horde of shambling undead coming towards you though the dark, uncaring about ...

A Bit of a Nostalgia Hit, but Brought up to Date (PC)

For many gamers, Wake Island feels like a second home. We first fought over it back in 2001 (in BF1942), we returned again to fight in BF2, we went into the future to battle over its sand blasted shores in BF2142 and now we get to play it again ...

Arragh! Monkey Island deserves a special edition! (PC)

About 20 years ago, Lucasarts released a game that would live forever as a classic and amazingly it wasn’t Star Wars related. It was, of course, The Secret of Monkey Island, the game that first introduced us to Guybrush Threepwood, Le Chuck and the chicken with a pulley in ...

"My Name Guybrush Threepwood and I'm a Mighty Pirate (tm)" (PC)

New logo for a new series If there was one game I regret not playing until now, its probably the first in the Monkey Island games from Lucasarts. These classic adventures are held among many as an example of a time when gameplay was more important than graphics. So it ...

A Blast to Play, but not worth the RRP (X360)

Tom Clancy is the man for near future military action. If his name is on the book/games/film you can tell it will be a least way half decent. Does H.A.W.X. match up to this standard? H.A.W.X. is a arcade style flight combat game from Ubisoft Romania, those fine fellows ...

WW2 Russian Style (PC)

Russian games are special. Being from a primarily PC gaming orientated country means developers can make some completely off the wall games, or use ideas that western developers would run away screaming from, crying for their mothers. We have seen overly ambitions games with real character (S.T.A.L.K.E.R.), traditional games with ...

Good, but not as revolutionary as DOW (PC)

If I had to name one developer to be inducted into a Hall of Fame, it would be Relic Entertainment from Canada. One look down the list of their games is a look into the evolution of RTS’s. Homeworld brought controlling units in full 3d, Dawn of War brought in ...
