So, Metal Gear Solid 4. Brilliant but a bit laborious seems to be the general verdict. Blockbusters are doing it for £35 if there’s one near you. Might as well get some popcorn for those two 90 minute cut-scenes while you’re there. Sid Meier’s Civilization Revolution is apparently as addictive as cocaine-covered Haribo and is …
As predicted, Lego Indiana Jones has managed to shift GTA IV from its lofty perch atop the top 40 chart. The Wii version has shifted the most copies so far, followed by Xbox 360, PlayStation 2, PlayStation 3 and DS. Ninja Gaiden II goes in at #6, Dragon Ball Z Burst Limit at a shocking …
Forbes is telling us that Apple could be about to kill the Nintendo DS with the iPhone. It’s a reasonably well-balanced discussion, but bafflingly misses one massively important factor in Nintendo’s success: first-party Nintendo games. It makes me want to punch a hole in my monitor, reach down the internet, and slap the writer about …
Danish Primary Coloured Brick Indiana Jones – or Lego Indiana Jones, for short – doesn’t appear to be up to the standard of Lego Star Wars. GamesRadar gave it at 5 while Eurogamer liked it a bit more, awarding it at 7. Ninja Gaiden II has been getting mixed reviews too, but then so did …
Puzzle Quest is a game with a lot of fans, but it would seem that not all of them are content. During a recent unveiling of their next game – Neopets Puzzle Adventure – CEO Steve Fawkner revealed that a bug in the PSP version led to developers Infinite Interactive receiving death threats. Six, in …
There’s an article in Word magazine (I refuse to call it ‘The Word’, as it’s now called, because that’s stupid) this month about Guitar Hero. It’s entirely in praise of the game, obviously, because it’s excellent. And I say that as someone who’s rubbish at the game – and indeed all games which require any …
Race Driver: GRID gets off to a good start going into the top 40 at a respectable #2. Grand Theft Auto IV stays at the top, Haze drops from #3 to #6 while Rock Band also drops from #6 to #12. Sega Superstars Tennis and Call of Duty 4 are back into top 10 at …
I love call centres. They’re so very, very helpful. Especially when you have what seems to be an uncommon problem. My Xbox 360 goes a bit mental after about five minutes, distorting the display so that you can still sort of see what’s going on, but it’s all horribly pixellated, and generally a bit broken. …
???????? ????? ????????I love the Daily Mail. Well, not love. I mean I like it. Well not like it. I’m ambivalent to the Daily Mail, well not ambivalent as such. I despise the Daily Mail. However sometimes they are so wrong that they’re funny. Like Hitler, or Lithuania’s entry into the 2006 Eurovision Song Contest. …
