  • Aliens: Infestation

    Space, the final frontier. These aren’t really voyages of the Starship Enterprise, because if they were Aliens: Infestation on the Nintendo DS would be a search for diplomacy. Instead, what SEGA present to us is the stereotypical Jarhead marine type that Hollywood convince us will populate the future on other planets. Throw in some big…

  • SEGA Bass Fishing

    Fishing. It’s often something people associate to cheesy American sitcoms where the father and son are trying to have some bonding time. With a dodgy little wooden boat, a variety of equipment and that strange green hat that’s only ever seen when people go fishing, it’s a stereotype that’s reinforced daily. So when SEGA decided…

  • LEGO Pirates Of The Caribbean

    Everybody loves LEGO. From being a young child to rediscovering youth in adult life the sentiment remains. There is something about building those colourful bricks into something that resembles a miniature society that can only be described as fun. Videogames, for some, evoke the same emotions so it would only seem like a natural progression…

  • We Sing UK Hits

    The United Kingdom, it’s got a long and rich history of producing musicians that are heralded around the world. Well, the term musician could be a little strong for people like the Spice Girls or David Grey but even so, it’s managed to create a fair few popular artists in the 100 or so years…

  • Thor: God Of Thunder 3DS

    Like the rising of the moon, it is inevitable that video game developers will try and cash in on the next biggest movie blockbuster. The year so far has spawned games such as Thor, Captain America, The Green Lantern and the list goes on. Most are lack-lustre and are missing the element of time it…

  • We Dance

    Dancing, it’s something that many people claim that they can’t do. It’s also something even more of us prove we can’t do after a few drinks in the clubs up and down the country every week. Yet, dancing seems to be getting more and more popular, it seems to have started with Dance Dance Revolution…

  • Cute Things Dying Violently

    Everyone loves cute things, it’s just a given. Even those manly men, with hardly any neck or hair, enjoy cute things – they just can’t admit it in public otherwise they can grow necks at amazing rates. Cute things are just a staple of life, from puppies and kittens to lemmings and surprised hamsters. Killing…

  • Agarest: Generations of War Zero

    Agarest: Generations of War Zero may not be the most well-known title to spring out of Japan, however it brings to the table it’s own take on the J-RPG by drawing from the styles from games rarely seen in the western world. These elements make for a title that is not short on depth and…

  • Raventhorne

    Cold. Snow. Vikings. They are all things that spring to mind when the word Ragnarok is uttered, and this would make sense as they where the Norse Mythology originates from, it often is cold and snowing – not to forget Vikings! It’s a theme that’s occasionally picked up for videogames, comics and films when developers…

  • Paper Mario

    Mario, he’s a man of few words, and a name of even fewer. It’s been a long time since Mario Mario hit the arcades and managed to take the world by storm. He’s now easily one of the most recognisable characters in the world with few other mascots reaching such fame. However, it’s not always…
