You might meet one or two of these guys in fighting games, or starring in a Prince of Persia sequel; more often than not, you&#8217;ll see them wangsting their hearts out in a sprawling Japanese RPG epic. ...</p>GC feature15/10/2008The games that shaped a generation: GameCube (Tales of Symphonia)http://www.gamesradar.com/f/the-games-that-shaped-a-generation-gamecube/a-200703051121689406515. Mario Kart: Double Dash!! Nintendo | Nintendo | 2003 So what if this mascot racer feels a lot like its predecessors? The fast and frantic gameplay is still perfect What made it so great? Double Dash didn't revolutionize the Mario Kart franchise like many hoped it would, but the improvements here go beyond surface deep. The character and vehicle selection is huge, the new weapons are appropriately insane complements to returning classics and the tracks themselves have never been this ...<br/>GC feature7/03/2007Terminator through time (Terminator 3: The Redemption)http://www.gamesradar.com/f/terminator-through-time/a-20090519131147266029<p>If there&#8217;s a character ideal for multiple mediums of sci-fi, it&#8217;s the Terminator or at least the idea of Terminators. The concept of a cyborg (cybernetic organism, or rather a robotic endoskeleton with living tissue over it) going back in time to kill the leader of the human resistance once the world goes kablooie isn&#8217;t that hard to grasp. ...</p>GC feature19/05/2009SkeleTONS: nearly every bony bastard in the gaming universe (Time Splitters 2)http://www.gamesradar.com/f/skeletons-nearly-every-bony-bastard-in-the-gaming-universe/a-200810301391168049<img src="http://static.gamesradar.com/images/mb/GamesRadar/us/Features/2008/10/Skeletons/Finished/bullyhalloween--article_blog_image.jpg" border="0"></img><br />A few months ago we had this idea to make a &#8220;Skeletons of Street Fighter&#8221; feature. Street Fighter IV hype was asploding across the webs (GamesRadar&#160;included) and we felt there was no better time to excuse a barrage of boney bastards across the site. <p>Then we thought, &#8220;why stop with Street Fighter?&#8221; There&#8217;ve got to be a billion goddam skeletons creeping through virtual graveyards just begging to have their toothy visage slapped on the immortal internet. Who are we to deny them such a privilege? So, without further yammering, we present, just in time for Halloween (y Dia de los Muertos), the biggest batch of skelleys you&#8217;ve ever seen... ...</p>GC feature31/10/2008The Most Gratuitous Headshots Video Ever (Time Splitters 2)http://www.gamesradar.com/f/the-most-gratuitous-headshots-video-ever/a-20080703163643718029<img src="http://static.gamesradar.com/images/mb/GamesRadar/us/Features/2008/07/Headshots%20Vid/Headshots_blog--article_blog_image.jpg" border="0"></img><br />Two minutes.

There's something almost violently alchemical about the way the two media usually react to each other. It's like getting hit by a yellow, piss-soaked snowball. Either element can be unpleasant enough on its own, but put them both together and something far more horrible happens. Games of movies, movies of games, they're both usually about as much fun as the death of a clown at a ten year-old's birthday party.

Nick Harper, TMNT 's creative director, steps up from the sewers to give us some answers...

Most everyone else on the planet can't stand or ignores it. But the fact remains that video game music draws a huge audience wherever it goes, and now GamesRadar has its own take to share. Brett Elston (Nintendo Editor), Joe McNeily (Senior Editor) and Stephen Pierce (Editorial Director) sit down with a smattering of classic video game tunes and weigh in on each song. We'll cover everything from the NES to the DS to the Xbox 360 - won't you join us?

The games of the last couple console generations might have been awesome for their time, but take a look at them now and it&#8217;s hard to see them as anything other than jaggy abortions in which cardboard rectangles masquerade as limbs. And as if that weren&#8217;t embarrassing enough, most of those games contain female characters who, in their day, were genuinely considered sexy. ...</p>GC feature9/07/2009If video game characters were Pokemon (Tomb Raider Legend)http://www.gamesradar.com/f/if-video-game-characters-were-pokemon/a-20090702144480002<img src="http://static.gamesradar.com/images/mb/GamesRadar/us/Features/2009/07/If%20game%20characters%20were%20Pokemon/Finished/Mario--article_blog_image.jpg" border="0"></img><br /><p>Ever wondered what it would be like to have video game characters in your Pokemon party?

Turns out despite the huge brand name and near universal critical acclaim, Tomb Raider Underworld just didn't sell as well as they had predicted, so it's time to tap that lucrative family market.</p><p>But Eidos don't need to spend thousands on a marketing consultant - we've done all the hard work for them and drawn up new versions of Lara.

The game comes out, becomes popular... and then becomes a series. Usually, we have nothing bad to say about that. Until, inevitably, things start to slide. The creator that made the game what it was bails. Or it fizzles in the transition from one console to another. Maybe the staff just forgot what made it great.

But even if EA&#8217;s latest board game can topple Metacritic&#8217;s servers with terabytes of 9s and 10s, its still got to feel like a partial victory. You see, the road to King of Sk8 is paved with broken decks, shattered expectations, and no less than five unnecessary Tony Hawk titles. ...</p>GC feature20/01/2009Gaming supermen (Tony Hawk's Underground 2)http://www.gamesradar.com/f/gaming-supermen/a-20060804101720287081What the hell did people do all day before the internet? In just the past year, user-generated sites like YouTube have become everyday destinations for virtually anything that's ever been recorded, broadcasted or even conceived of - and that includes gaming. A recent thread over on the Penny Arcade forums called out the best you'll-never-pull-this-off video game moments captured on video, and wouldn't you know it, YouTube pretty much as them all.
