You have to try and see it from both sides of the galactic divide. Do you think those Space Invaders wanted to march slowly from side to side? Do you believe that their only ambition in life was to clog the Earth's guns with their Invader dead? No, they had dreams, careers and families too. They were mere innocents, following orders in the war between the humans and those cruel buzzing UFOs that raced cowardly across the top of the screen. So we should be a little more understanding of Crypto
Ding Chaves, legendary leader of the Rainbow Six and the only onomatopoeically named person we can think of (apart from Bing Crosby) is back. OK, so his game doesn't have a proper name yet but it does have a movie and lots of secret shots. Referred to as "the next Rainbow Six instalment" by publishers Ubi Soft, this fourth segment in the series promises to push the game into darker territory with a story based on personal vengeance as well as stealth-based team-play.You'll be able to pick up

Did you know they were making a movie about Batman's origins, revealing the reason he likes to dress up in rubber and beat people up at midnight? Surely Tim Burton's first effort covered all that in as much detail as an audience will ever need, but such trifling matters have never concerned Hollywood.And it doesn't seem to concern Electronic Arts that Batman has the unenviable record of being the worst videogame character of the last seven years, or at least starring in the most consistently

Contrary to what you might have read elsewhere, the reports of problems in Japan and the US have not put back the British release of Sony's own racing giant, Gran Turismo 4.The ball started rolling earlier in the week when the Japanese arm of Sony announced that their region's release of Polyphony's masterwork was to go back from 3 December to 28 December. Last night, Sony's US branch also announced that the game was going to be delayed over there, with the release date sliding from 14 December
After NFL Street and NBA Street, it was only a matter of time before FIFA Street came along. (What next: SSX Street? Medal Of Honor Street?) But if you've got a good idea then why not run with it? (And boot it between the posts before wheeling away with your shirt over your head.)So to follow the announcement last month of the latest in a very long line of FIFAs, EA have decided to release four highly polished shots of the game from a unnamed console version.

Have you ever been humiliated in a Singstar 'battle' with one of your more angelic voiced chums? Have you ever wanted to get even by challenging them at a real 'battle' like Eminem in 8 Mile? Well now you can with Eidos's hip-hop heavy, Get On Da Mic.In a swift move to appeal to the rap lovers amongst us, Eidos are set to unleash an 'urban' karaoke (or 'Rapaoke' as Eidos want to stupidly call it) title on yo' ass. Thankfully this time you're able to spit rhymes like Dre, rather than strain your
It's terrifying knowing that they are out there. Thousands of them, all waiting to feast on your brains and tear you limb from limb. Yep, we all know that the internet is a scary place but even the darkest recesses of the web are going to get a lot more scary with the news that Resi Outbreak File 2 will be playable online in the UK. The release of the original Outbreak was a classic 'glass half full' moment. despite being less sophisticated than the Japanese version due to the missing internet
Gran Turismo 4 has forced us to announce more delays than the supposedly soothing pre-recorded female voice at the train station - slips for translation, slips for internet problems, slips due to excess slippage. We've seen, and told you, of them all and so it makes a nice change for the Polyphony to be announcing some good, if a little weird, news.First up, the Japanese developer is teaming up with Nike to launch Gran Turismo Limited Edition. Set to be released only in Japan, this shiny-cased
