Mercenaries 2: World in Flames

PS2 Preview | Mercenaries 2: World in Flames

When it was first released, the orignal Mercenaries was banned in South Korea because of the tensions between the southern and the northern territories, meaning that any media showing conflict between the two was deemed illegal. Now with Mercenaries 2, the game faces another country with its panties in a twist. We caught up with senior producer Jonathan Zamkoff to get his thoughts. So Jonathan, with the game being set in Venezuela, didnt you cause a bit of GTA-style storm with the authorities ...

The Force Unleashed - updated impressions

PS2 Preview | Star Wars: The Force Unleashed

When it comes to the Star Wars universe, Haden Blackman is the most knowledgeable man alive (outside of George Lucas, of course). At one point in his career, he was the guy in charge of continuity across every single piece of Star Wars product in existence. Now, LucasArts has tapped his veritable font of wisdom and lore by making him the project lead for Star Wars: The Force Unleashed, which takes place during the tumultuous-but-unexplored years between Episodes III and IV. LucasArts invited us ...

Alone in the Dark

PS2 Preview | Alone in the Dark

When it comes to cutting edge trouser-spoilers, Resident Evil is still the daddy. Continually bending the rules of survival horror, the fourth game in the series was not only one of the best games on PS2, but probably one of the best games ever made. And yet… while they could certainly lay claim to propelling horror gaming forward with arse-clenching frightfests like RE Nemesis, Capcom cant claim to have invented the genre. That honour goes to Alone in the Dark, originally developed by ...

Alone in the Dark - interview

PS2 Preview | Alone in the Dark

Dec 27, 2007 Our recent previews of Alone in the Dark delve into the use of light as a weapon and the creepy, gigantic Central Park setting. For our next trick, we talk to the game Producer, Nour ...

MX vs ATV Untamed

PS2 Preview | MX vs ATV Untamed

Nov 9, 2007 Let's pop the old wank hat on for a second and say that MX vs ATV Untamed is a game "built for the enthusiast but is no less accessible to the casual racing fan." What we mean in norm-speak is that it's a game made by bike nerds for bike nerds but is still a bit of fun for us ...

The Golden Compass - updated impressions

PS2 Preview | The Golden Compass

Nov 5, 2007 Frankly, anyone who's read the His Dark Materials trilogy should want to experience the game and film almost as much as wanting a monkey-shaped demon of their own. By now, the film trailer will be playing in cinemas and you'll probably have seen the amazingly recreated world of Jordan College, Bolvangar and the North on screen for yourself. And we can report that the game - which is being developed by Shiny - is shaping up to have all the best bits from the film, and more on top of ...

March Madness 08 - first look

PS2 Preview | NCAA March Madness 08

Oct 19, 2007 Durant or Oden? Durant or Oden? You couldn't escape from the debate this summer of college basketball's two best players. But we're not talking about the NBA Draft here. We're talking about the cover of NCAA March Madness 08. For a game that claims to revolutionize gameplay in the post, it's a mystery why EA chose wunderkind Kevin Durant to front its game when Oden was among the most dominate post player in college hoops last season. But that's what college basketball is all ...

TNA Impact - hands-on

PS2 Preview | TNA Impact!

Oct 16, 2007 Lets face it, the WWE is essentially the evil empire of wrestling. Mr. McMahon and his genetic superfreaks will always stand atop the heap of sports entertainment destroying all comers like they did WCW and ECW. With an increasingly stale product and THQs SmackDown! franchise delivering the same thing year in and out, wrasslin fans need a savior. Start bracing for Impact - literally - because Midway is developing TNA Impact for the PS2, PS3, Xbox 360 and Wii, based off the ...

The Simpsons Game - hands-on

PS2 Preview | The Simpsons Game

We've played a fair few Simpsons games in our time. It goes with the job - there have been so many they're hard to avoid, like the Army Men games, or Dynasty Warriors (just considerably better). But none have really gone down as classics in the Videogaming Bible of all Things Great (if such a thing existed obviously). It looks like this might be about to change, however, with a game that comes from both the company who (arguably) knows most about videogames, EA, and the people who (unarguably) ...

The Simpsons Game

PS2 Preview | The Simpsons Game

Oct 1, 2007 Theres never been a game that truly captured the The Simpsons essence. Not that thats stopped them from being successful - Hit & Run was one the all-time biggest selling PS2 games. So when The Simpsons Games Executive Producer Scot Amos began work on EAs first crack at the license, he knew that the only way forward was to rip up the yellow rulebook and start ...
