PC Review
WarPath marched to the retail frontline with about as much hype as a straight-to-DVD movie. Without the onslaught of marketing, that usually accompanies a new first-person-shooter, it snuck into the crowded FPS trenches with hardly a whimper, never mind a war cry. Sadly, WarPath's under-the-radar release is well deserved, as it delivers an all-too familiar package that often dips into mediocrity with dated graphics and slim ...

PS2 Review
Resurrecting old and much-loved movies and turning them into games is always going to be a dangerous business. You've got to please a lot of different sets of people at the same time; fans of the original film, fans of the genre of game and gamers who've never heard of the movie that need to be won over. As you'd expect from Rockstar, The Warriors manages to pull it off, delivering both a worthy and worthwhile homage to the 1979 classic and also a worthy and worthwhile videogame. It's hard to ...

PSP Review
Let's get one thing clear right away: if you've already played through The Warriors on consoles, you won't find anything new in the PSP version. But you won't find anything missing, either; from the tiniest beer bottle to the biggest multi-gang brawl, everything that made The Warriors an awesome beat 'em-up has been faithfully recreated on the handheld's small screen. That comes with its own set of problems, but for the moment, let's just bask in the glow of one of the few PS2-to-PSP ports to ...

Resurrecting old and much-loved movies and turning them into games is always going to be a dangerous business. Not dangerous like alligator wrestling or wearing pants made of Uranium-235 but you've got to please a lot of different sets of people at the same time: fans of the original film, fans of the genre of game, gamers who've never heard of the movie and need to be won over... the list goes on. As you'd expect from Rockstar, The Warriors manages to pull it off, delivering both a worthy and ...

PSP Review
Are you an extremely forgiving PSP gamer who's desperately in need of a dungeon-crawling fix? Like, really, really desperate? If so, you're one of the few who might find something to like about Warriors of the Lost Empire, the US port of an obscure Japanese Action RPG. Lost Empire drops you right into the middle of a plot that's utterly generic and barely comprehensible at the same time, thanks to pages and pages of text that read like they were translated by a lolcat. It has something to do ...

Sept 27, 2007 Let's assume for a moment that you love McDonald's Big Macs - it's not tough, right? That is one delicious burger. Also, pretend that one Big Mac lasts forever. Finally, imagine that every time you walked into a McDonald's, they shouted at you "The Big Mac is new and improved and better than ever!" And so you get all excited and buy the latest one, only to discover that it's the same exact thing with only some teeny, tiny variation - like, the relish is chunkier or the buns have ...

PS2 - Warriors Orochi 2 - Warriors Orochi 2

The serpent king Orochi and the Dynasty Warriors series have one thing in common, they keep on coming back for more. It’s Japan’s equivalent of the FIFA moneymaking saga. Here you can expect at least one game a year, if not more. Twelve months isn’t much time to create an entirely new game, so it’s little wonder that Warriors Orochi 2 is more like a ‘greatest hits’. ...
