Fading Shadows - the official preview

PSP Preview | Fading Shadows

For all the fans of rolling ball puzzle and mythology games, we checked out the next PSP game, Fading Shadows. There are 50 levels you guide a small orb through with a beam of light. The goal is to take the ball from the dark underworld to a happy air world. You not only direct the light, but it can be focused to have a stronger pull on the orb or spread to avoid becoming too hot. ...

Family Guy - hands-on

PSP Preview | Family Guy

We admit it: when we first heard about plans for a Family Guy game, we cringed. And when we heard that it would be developed by High Voltage, creator of the craptacular Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, our testicles retracted into our bodies so fast that the impact collapsed our lungs. Don't get us wrong - we like Family Guy, but games like this tend to be horrible. Now that we've played it, however, it looks like our fears were unfounded. Not only is Family Guy shaping up to be a good time, ...

Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer

PSP Preview | Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer

The last outing for Marvel's fab four, published by Activision, not 2K Games, was a mediocre affair with predictable button-bashing action that barely tested your skills. Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer benefits from PS3's bolder, crisper graphics, while the gameplay's been enhanced to test your wit as well as your rapid-finger ...

The Fast and the Furious

PSP Preview | The Fast and the Furious

Racers, do you spend your weekends in the parking lot of In-N-Out Burger, revealing your cars innards to your fellow gearheads? Do you marvel at the guy whos ruined his credit score by buying a valve contraption to turn his 92 Civic into a wheel-disintegrating metallic cheetah? Do you hate the guy who got a Viper for his Sweet 16 MTV celebration-of-greed party? The jerkwad who barks horsepower threats and brags about how his dad is CEO of Hot Dog on a ...

Field Commander - Hands On

PSP Preview | Field Commander

The PSP's been out for more than a year now, and there's still no back-and-forth, military strategy game for us bloodthirsty dictators to test out. Well, if you can hang on just a few more weeks, chances are the turn-based action of Field Commander will sooth your battle-ready senses. The basics are well covered. You start with so many units (in ground, air and sea varieties), the bad guy has a similar army in the wings and then you start pummeling each other until the smoke finally clears. ...

Field Commander

PSP Preview | Field Commander

Who doesn't love blowing stuff up? Gamers know firsthand the satisfaction of marching up to the bad guy's front door and blasting it into the ground - and that's the feeling Sony Online is hoping to duplicate with Field Commander. Instead of controlling one soldier, or even a squad of crack troops youre in command of an entire army thats tasked with stopping an evil organization from taking over the world (and no, its not Cobra). Youll have nearly 20 different types of units, each with ...

FIFA 08 - hands-on

PSP Preview | FIFA 08

In direct opposition to its big bro, mini FIFA is certainly a case of tweaking and fine-tuning over any wholesale alterations. For instance 07s defensive intelligence was a weak point, something that EA was keen to remedy. Thanks to the new right analog player switching and vastly improved AI, any goals you concede will now fall firmly at your feet. This new realistic defending includes increased spatial awareness regarding threats and danger zones, putting more pressure on the ball carrier, ...

Final Fantasy - hands-on

PSP Preview | Final Fantasy Anniversary Edition

Final Fantasy was originally released in Japan in 1986. Starting seven years ago, though, Square Enix decided to start pimping it out on system after system. This marks the fourth remake since 2000. The final evolution of this re-envisioned edition of the original game in the series - or so we hope - is this, the PSP ...

Final Fantasy Tactics: The War of the Lions -...

PSP Preview | Final Fantasy Tactics: The War of the Lions

Sept 7, 2007 Even if you've already played the original Final Fantasy Tactics for PSone, at first glance you may not recognize Final Fantasy Tactics: The War of the Lions as a remake. The gameplay is more or less the same as the original, but the story has received a huge facelift in the form of new, cel-shaded cutscenes. Ivalice seems more real than ever here, and the hand-drawn art complements the story and overall feel of the game perfectly. From the opening scene of Chocobo riders racing ...

Flatout: Head On - preview and exclusive video

PSP Preview | FlatOut: Head On

The game has been given a shake-up for PSP and now features the Carnage Mode challenge series as the main mode of play. However, unlike TOCA RaceDriver 3 Challenge, the game hasn't really been cut-down into a selection of mini events at all. This is the real deal. ...
