Released: 2000 Formats: Game Boy Color Animal rights organisation PETA has been around since 1980 and occasionally backlash against videogames which feature animal harming for entertainment. Super Meat Boy and Cooking Mama are two titles that have recently rattled their cage… pun fully intended. It’s odd, then, that Taito’s Monkey Puncher managed to escape their …
The witch hunters at the Daily Mail have caught wind of how an 11 year old boy rang up over £1,000 on his mother’s credit card by purchasing items from Xbox Live. Eighteen months ago she inputted the credit card details onto Xbox Live so her son could play online, but because the details were …
I think Nintendo of Europe’s marketing has taken a tumble recently. First there were those ridiculous adverts with Jedward; now they’re making wild accusations as to which games we would “love”.

The community rebelled and now the Indie Games section has been moved to a place where it’s impossible to ignore – you have to scroll past it to get to the popular demo section. Since …
This week would have been all about vastly improved RPG sequel Two Worlds 2, but as reported by Eurogamer it has been delayed not once but twice over the last few days. It’s now pencilled in for a 25th February release, due to a large amount of stock being wrecked on route from China to …
Now this is a game that I’m glad I wasn’t asked to review – I can’t decide if it’s the ‘best worst game ever’ or the ‘worst best game ever’. Confused? Of course you are. Just trying to describe it gives me brain ache – it’s a murder mystery, set in a quiet American town, …
Nintendo has revealed that Donkey Kong Country Returns has managed to shift over 4 million copies worldwide since being released on 3rd December while 1.5 million copies Art Academy on DS have been sold so far.
