Tomb Raider: Legend

PSP Preview | Tomb Raider: Legend

Oh Lara Croft ... so hot, so brilliant, so starring in awful games for so long. The original Tomb Raider was an opus of Indiana Jones-style adventuring, puzzle-solving, dual-pistol wielding, and tank-top-staring that put Ms. Croft and the PlayStation on the map. But after Tomb Raider III, things got rough for our favorite feminine plaything. Cliches began to snake in, the baddies began to smack of caricature, while attempts at innovation had the distinct reek of gimmick. The nadir came with ...

Me & My Katamari

PSP Preview | Me & My Katamari

When a game becomes a series, no matter how damn cool it was the first time around, it's bound to get stale. The faster it happens, the worse its chances. That's the challenge facing the Katamari Damacy series right now. Its third installment in two years is set to hit the PSP, and that's the main hook: the new game is simply exciting by virtue of being portable. Me & My Katamari follows in the path cleared by its PS2 predecessors, which had you collecting everything from coins and children to ...

Untold Legends The Warriors Code

PSP Preview | Untold Legends: The Warrior's Code

We're not sure how untold those legends can really be: this is the follow-up to PSP launch title Untold Legends, itself related to a whole family of top-down RPGs based on Champions of Norrath and the Baldur's Gate series. Despite the many upgrades appearing in Warrior's Code, it still feels familiar. Still, if it means more good stuff, who are we to complain? If we had to come up with an 11th commandment, it would be, "Thou shalt give us more good stuff." The combat's a little more complex ...

Street Fighter Alpha 3 Max

PSP Preview | Street Fighter Alpha 3 Max

Don't let the "3" in this game's title fool you; there were plenty more than just two Street Fighter games before this one. Closer to two dozen, in fact. However, that just makes it more impressive that this is one of the best, a game that squashes almost all of the Street Fighters that came before it into one excellent game that still holds up remarkably well today. In fact, the slightly renamed PSP game Street Fighter Alpha 3 Max even tosses in a few new neat additions. Like what? Like new ...

NFS Most Wanted: Played!

PSP Preview | PSP

Compared to EA's newest racing acquisition Burnout, the last Need for Speed outing was a little underwhelming. While it sold well to those gamers who prefer to spend their money on fully established, 'safe' buys, Need for Speed wasn't anywhere near Burnout's level. However, thanks to the new graphical splendour bestowed upon this new iteration by the advanced power of Xbox 360 (or should we say, ), NFS has been given a new lease of life. Everything's just so much more intricately detailed ...
