Moscow to Berlin: Red Siege

PC Review

Moscow to Berlin is technically the fourth game in a series that commenced with Desert Rats vs. Afrika Korps, a smart little WWII RTS that grabbed modest critical praise. If you liked that game and its successors (D-Day and Battle of the Bulge), you'll probably enjoy MtB despite its dings and scratches. And if you didn't, well, who can blame you - World War II titles are a dime a dozen these days. What you get for the not-quite-budget price of $30 are twenty missions overlapping three ...

MotoGP 08

PC Review

Considering how many times it’s changed hands, we’re quite surprised there’s another MotoGP game at all. First it was with Namco, then THQ, and now, finally, Capcom has secured it – and asked Milestone to take on dev duties for all formats. ...

Mount & Blade

PC Review

Combining horses with sharp objects doesn’t usually end up in fun – as anyone who’s seen Equus will agree. However, Mount & Blade is a half-decent stab at the open-ended medieval RPG, especially considering the game began as an indie project by a Turkish husband-and-wife development team. ...

The Movies: Stunts & Effects

PC Review

Thanks to last year's film studio sim The Movies, you no longer have to watch films contrived by lazy Hollywood execs; now you can contrive films of your own. The Stunts & Effects expansion pack adds more sets, costumes, props, vehicles and backdrops for your virtual productions, along with a new employee type: the stuntman. That's all great, and fans of The Sims -style "god gameplay" will appreciate the new bits as they hire directors, bankroll productions and try to keep their stars' scandals ...

Multiwinia: Survival of the Flattest

PC Review

PC - Multiwinia: Survival of the Flattest - Multiwinia: Survival of the Flattest

Some Multiwinia advice: if you’re going to type chat messages, type them quickly. In the few seconds it takes to tell ShrimpVektor79 about your toenail operation, or remind PenzancePete that his mum smells of poo, the seeds of defeat can be sown, watered, germinated, harvested, and served up steaming in a tasty defeat-sprout stir-fry. This hectic multiplayer-focused Darwinia spinoff is as full of glee and spectacle as any RTS we know. ...

MySims

PC Review

Five minutes in, one thing was clear. Despite our best efforts to kill the trees and build a vale of torment that would leave its residents a quivering mess, “Animal Crossing” would have been a more appropriate name. ...

Myst Online - Uru live

PC Review

Myst is back. With more sadistic puzzles, glorious worlds and an ever-changing story, the new Myst Online: URU Live (URU = "you are you") stays true to the complexity of the original series while adding a new layer. Namely, URU is live online, and players can now group together to solve the puzzles and explore the Ages. URU went live February 15, on Gametap.com. Like pretty much all Massively Multiplayer Online game launches, there were lag issues, server issues, instance issues, chat issues ...
