How to use your GameShark for good - not evil (Feature)

Aug 5, 2009

The Top 7… villains that never stay dead (Feature)

Apr 13, 2009

Death happens a lot in videogames, but for some reason it never seems to stick.

Zero to 100: Videogames by the numbers (Feature)

Mar 31, 2009

The Sexual Politics Of The Mushroom Kingdom (Feature)

Jan 9, 2008

9th Dec, 2008 Just what in the hell is going on with Mario and Peach? It was so simple back in the old NES days of Super Mario Bros. She got herself kidnapped, he went after her with the help of Luigi, and all ended happily ever after. Or so we thought. The thing is that it didn't really. It's become ever more apparent that since that first rescue things have only ever got messier, dirtier and more manipulative in their relationship. Far from the innocent damsel and hero set-up that appeared ...

Super Mario 64 DS (Review)

Dec 20, 2004

Hands up, everyone who hasn't played this. There must be a few people out there who haven't experienced Mario's finest moment on its native N64 format, and if you're one of them, you'll love this. There's even more to do than there was before, with an extra 30 stars, new levels and new characters.That we have any reservation at all is entirely due to the control system. Mario 64 was less designed with the N64's three-pronged controller in mind than the controller was created specifically for ...
