Near 200 national teams. All the stadiums, carnival atmosphere and glamour of the world’s biggest sporting event. A refined, sexier version of the most sophisticated footie engine ever. Yup, it’s safe to say EA’s latest World Cup game is shaping up to be pretty tasty. We got hands-on with the game recently and can confidently state its set to become this generation’s finest footie title yet.

The Power Pad is back! Kinda. Okay, maybe the original NES peripheral was a bit overhyped and underwhelming, but in our opinion, its biggest downfall was people not using it correctly. You, in other words. How many of us actually beat Cheetah without ending up on our knees pounding the buttons with out hands? That’s right, we all cheated. But it doesn’t matter with Active Life: Outdoor Adventure, because the pad allows you to do just that, plus it uses the pad in conjunction with the Wii Remote for certain situations... just to keep you honest.
Why the upcoming tie-ins might actually do Tim Burton's film justice
Segas on a roll. Skipping the obvious Monkey Ball gag, its clear that with both Sonic and the spherical simians scoring decent ratings, Sega has found a suitable format for their solid brand of game making. And it looks set to continue in this RPG re-imagining of the 1987 game of the same name.
Players select one of five classes - Demo Expert, Firebug, SEAL, Sharpshooter or Tank - each with allotted skills and abilities. Demo experts fumble with a pistol in their hands while the big booms will
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

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

Alone in the Dark is a game that has spent serious time in development - and, eventually, all the early hype surrounding it has ever so slowly trickled away... but, we said it before and well say it again, thats a damn shame because, put simply, the game is shaping up to be a cracker. Forget Alan Wake, forget Silent Hill 5, forget even Resident Evil 5 - this really could be the hidden gem of next-gen horror gaming… so weve donned our boots and delved back into a distinctly
Since inventing the survival-horror genre 16 years ago, the Alone in the Dark series has been defined mainly by creeping around in dimly lit corridors and hoping something didn't lurch out of the shadows to gnaw your face off. The creators of the new Alone in the Dark, however, want you to know that crawling through claustrophobic spaces won't be the focus this time around - and to hammer that point home, they'll literally tear those spaces
Spider-Man takes to the streets of New York and shows us his wall-crawling ways. Check inside for all of Spidey's high-flying acrobatics and a look at the Lizard in Amazing Spider-Man...
There’s nothing quite like Animal Crossing’s chilled-out, surprisingly addictive and potentially endless non-game gameplay. Having felt compelled to play the DS version, Wild World, almost every single day for the better part of three years, we can confirm that the only surefire way to break a chronic Animal Crossing habit is to take the cartridge on holiday and lose it.
