12 games you might never play
Xbox Feature | Oddworld: Munch's Oddysee
Xbox - Oddworld: Munch's Oddysee - 12 games you might never play Remember how great StarCraft: Ghost was going to be? Sorry, it’s dead. It’s not uncommon for games to be cancelled. It usually happens like this: A game is announced, we hear nothing about it for years, then buried somewhere in a press release about another game we find a note that mentions that it has been “indefinitely delayed,” which actually means “permanently delayed.” And that’s it, we never hear about it again. ...

The Top 7...Big Bosses
Xbox Feature | Otogi: Myth of Demons
Ah, bosses! How we love their layered life bars, cheap super-attacks and exposed weak points. It's the rules that games have to have them, so in this roll-call we look at seven titans that really threw their weight around. These are some of the biggest of the big, deserving of their boss status by barely fitting on the screen, let alone playing unfair. 7. The Hydra, God of War, (PS2, 2005) In a game that does everything big, you expect some mighty bosses, but what you don't expect is one ...

When bosses go big
Xbox Feature | Otogi: Myth of Demons
Tuesday 17 October 2006 Ah, bosses! How we love your meter-long life bars, cheap super-attacks and exposed weak points. It's The Rules that games have to have them, so in this roll-call we look at eight titans that really threw their weights around. These are some of the biggest of the big, deserving of their boss status by barely fitting on the screen, let alone playing unfair.

The Top 7... Girl-on-girl kisses
Xbox Feature | Outlaw Golf 2
What's hotter than watching a cute princess kiss a fat, middle-aged plumber? Well, anything really, but given the headline above, the answer should be obvious: watching a cute princess kiss another cute princess. It's sexy, it's vaguely taboo and it's pleasantly devoid of bristling mustaches and lingering sewage odors. It's much more common to see girl-on-girl kisses in other media, but it happens in games more often than you'd think. To prove it to you, we've collected the very best ones and ...

Yu Suzuki's five finest moments
Xbox Feature | Outrun 2
Xbox - Outrun 2 - Yu Suzuki's five finest moments

Today is a sad day for Sega fans, as news breaks that 50-year-old creative genius Yu Suzuki has stepped down from his post as R&D Creative Officer at Sega, taking up a much-diminished role as R&D manager at the AM Plus division.

So, as a tribute to one of the greatest visionaries the industry has seen (or is ever likely to see), and as a history lesson for anyone too young to remember, here are five of Yu Suzuki's greatest moments ...

OutRun 2
Xbox Feature | Outrun 2
Drifting. If there's one thing that OutRun 2 has got, it's drifting. While arcade-style car-'em-ups like the Ridge Racer series have always placed a premium on oversteering, nothing even begins to compare to the hugely exaggerated degree of powersliding available in the Xbox version of OutRun 2: you can barely turn a corner without finding yourself locked into a 15-second drift. It's a feature that was readily apparent in the coin-op version - which hit arcades earlier this year - but, based on ...

OutRun 2
Xbox Feature | Outrun 2
We are apprehensive. We've travelled 190 miles repeatedly asking ourselves 'why?' but it's now, during the short trip between Sheffield train station and Sumo Digital, the developer given the task of converting OutRun 2 to Xbox, that the anxiety is really mounting. (Traditionally, thirdparty translations of major coin-ops often prove bitter disappointments, let's not forget.) Eyes furiously scanning the moving scenery, any element, however absurdly tenuous, that potentially vindicates Sega's ...
