UEFA Champions League 2006-2007 (Review)

27/03/2007

Ooh, we like that. Having just loaded up UEFA for the first time, were greeted by the stirring operatic Champions League theme so familiar for people who actually watch UK soccer, at least. God bless the FIFA series and its license-happy handlers - this is powerful stuff. Electric memories of pre-match excitement are stirred, atmosphere heavy and anticipation high. We suddenly need a bottle of ...

UEFA Euro 2008 (Review)

22/04/2008

First off, don’t worry - England’s absence from this year’s European Championships is rectifiable. UEFA Euro 2008 allows you to play through qualification, or just jump straight into the finals - with the correct team line-up or your own selection. So you can take JT, Lumpard and the rest to glory after all, until their egos are so gigantic they can’t stand up under the weight. ...

UFC 2009 Undisputed (Review)

15/05/2009

During the demo appointments leading up to Undisputed’s release, we knew we were seeing something good. The tactical, yet undeniably brutal sport (if it’s recognized by many state athletic commissions then yes, it is a sport) is rendered the best it’s ever been in digital form. ...

Undertow - Xbox Live Arcade (Review)

26/11/2007

Nov 26, 2007 Upon first play, it's almost too easy to dismiss Undertow. This side-scrolling shooter featuring the usual, "left stick moves, right stick shoots" controls and absolutely tiny characters really doesn't make a dazzling first impression. But give the game a chance, and it may just surprise you. On the surface, Undertow is a simple shooter, but under the waves is where you'll find out how much strategy is required to keep from drowning at this excellent multiplayer game. OK, enough ...

Universe at War: Earth Assault (Review)

1/04/2008

We're not alone in the universe... in fact, it's getting kind of crowded here. In Universe at War: Earth Assault, the latest in a long run of PC real-time strategy titles ported to the Xbox 360, our planet is invaded by not one, not two, but three alien races intent on settling their ancient interstellar war once and for all. This diversity of factions and strategy is the game's greatest strength, but in the end, may overwhelm console players relatively new to the genre. ...

Uno - Xbox Live Arcade (Review)

22/05/2006

Playing Uno on Xbox Live Arcade will teach you a lot of things you didn't know - namely, how to play Uno. Most people remember the basics: ditch all the cards in your hand to win, but you'll need to sidestep the Skip and Reverse traps while avoiding the deadly Draw Two and Draw Four cards. But whether they know it or not, most people play with house rules, like drawing cards until you get one you can play or adding two Draw Two cards to make the next poor bastard draw four. Thankfully, the ...

Unreal Tournament III (Review)

7/07/2008

With Call of Duty 4 largely humiliating Halo in the Xbox Live popularity contest, you can’t help but feel Unreal Tournament III has arrived late to a party already at full capacity. And yet…when something turns up in this kind of shape, it’s always going to be welcome.

Stack this up against the glut of multiplayer shooters on 360 and we’ll award you no prizes whatsoever for guessing which is the offspring of a ...
