Undead armada

360 Feature | Dead Rising

This Friday has seen a ridiculous pile of Dead Rising goodies storm the GamesRadar offices as this game approaches critical mass. While you're downloading the new demo from the Xbox Live Marketplace (available today, woohoo!), rifle through the grab bag of risen-dead treats we've assembled. First off, our generous sister publication Official Xbox Magazine has provided us with an exclusive look at zombie dismemberment on a massive scale with their short film entitled "60 Ways to Kill a Zombie" ...

What the hell were we thinking?!?!

PC Feature | Deer Hunter 5

Chaos, mayhem, uproar and riots. That's what GamesRadar seems to have triggered with last week's feature, "The Ten Greatest Years in Videogame History ". We might as well have burned down the internet, for all the email and forum flaming we inspired. Some folks praised us, some wanted us crucified, and one called us "wankers", ignoring that the feature only covered the US market. Granted, we set ourselves up. We knew this feature was so vast, so subjective and so dependent upon reader ...

Oblivion Extreme

360 Feature | The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion

For some people, vacations are a time to relax. Not us. When we check out of reality and go on an extended holiday in the fantasy land of Cyrodiil, we want action and lots of it. We want to find new and interesting ways to practically kill ourselves that no sane mortal would dare attempt. The beauty of Oblivion is that if you can see it, you can generally go there, somehow, even if it involves incredible risk and searing pain. It's that spirit that drives our daredevil guide to The Elder ...

Three expert beatdowns

PSP Feature | Tekken: Dark Resurrection

The game's only been out for a few days, but Tekken: Dark Resurrection is already the buzz of the PSP world. We can't get enough of it, as evidenced by our own review, but before King, Paul and the rest of the crew fade away from constant coverage, we secured three fresh videos to whet your ferocious appetites. Keep in mind that no movie or screenshot can capture how beautiful this game looks on the PSP screen... it's absolutely ...

The characters of Xenosaga: Episode III

PS2 Feature | Xenosaga Episode III: Also Sprach Zarathustra

The Xenosaga series, like any great story-driven role player, is filled with many different characters. Each has his or her own secrets, and his or her own path through the world. Each has a different look, a different tone of voice, a different way of thinking or fighting. Xenosaga doesn't limit things to a single world - it's a galaxy filled with alien menaces and shadowy organizations that manipulate the lives of people for their own ends. This cast of memorable characters must fight ...

Just Cause

360 Feature | Just Cause

Friday 28 July 2006 One game that has grabbed our attention firmly by the cojones is Just Cause from Swedish developer, Avalanche Studios. Not only does it look absolutely gorgeous but, by dropping the player into a huge, tropical hotbed of anarchic action, it promises an overload of riotous fun when it's released this autumn. After being mighty impressed during our latest hands-on with the game, we tracked down Avalanche's content director, Odd Ahlgren, and liberated some answers from him ...

The ten greatest years in videogame history

PC Feature | Half-Life 2

Three weeks ago, our sibling site NextGen posted the article, "The Ten Greatest Years in Gaming." It was full of cool industry info, but the first thing we asked was, "So, the PlayStation was first designed as an add-on for the SNES. We get the irony, but what were we actually playing in 1993 that made it so great?" We checked it out. We made a huge list of the best games of the past 34 years, taped it to the wall, and fought for days about stuff like whether one Zelda is worth more than two ...

PS2 Feature | .hack//G.U. vol. 1//Rebirth

Step into the future .hack//G.U. is unique because it straddles two worlds. There's the real world - the one we live in... 11 years in the future, 2017. It's a future that already feels familiar: in which network gaming is universal, thanks to advanced technology and a game-friendly society. The backdrop to the events of .hack//G.U. is a massively multiplayer RPG, known as The World R:2, built literally on the ashes of the troubled online game that served as the backdrop to the .hack story ...

Above the Law - City of Heroes

PC Feature | City of Heroes

All the other games represented here are based on existing comic heroes (and Marvel ones, at that) - but only City of Heroes lets you make your own. A good deal of the fun in this massively multiplayer RPG comes from creating your own superhero, choosing from hundreds of various costume parts, accessories, and body types. Robotic arms, rotting zombie flesh, tattered kung-fu outfit, permanent goofy good-guy grin - put them all on one hideous character if you like. Design your outfit, create your ...

The characters of .hack//G.U.

PS2 Feature | .hack//G.U. vol. 1//Rebirth

In the original .hack saga, The World is a massive online game played around the globe. The trouble is that it contained a terrible secret - players would fall into comas after playing the game. Fortunately, two players known as Kite and BlackRose, among others, battled the malicious entities living in the game world and brought safe play to everyone. In the aftermath, the game itself was completely destroyed. But companies can't resist dicing with fate when money hangs in the balance, ...
