Madden NFL 11 Review

Madden NFL 11 Review
3.5

Madden NFL 11′s tagline is: “Simpler, Quicker, Deeper”, and most of that is true compared to the previous Maddens. I’m going to start by disclosing that I’m not the biggest sports games fan out there, infact I’m not really into the whole sports thing, but I think I’d give Madden NFL 11 a go as [...]

2.5

Kane and Lynch 2: Dog Days’s release will likely be met by confusion by a few people. “Didn’t that come out in January?” they’ll ask. No, that was Army of Two: 40th Day, another co-op shooter sequel set in Shanghai. Another similarity between the games is that their predecessors were released at a time when [...]

REVIEW: Limbo – Xbox 360
3.5

After you push start at the title screen, Limbo just starts with no introduction. It would appear Limbo is too cool for an introduction. Apparently, you’re a little boy, blinking awake in a foresty area. Who you are, and why you’re there, you don’t know. In fact, the only way to find out anything about [...]

REVIEW: Split/Second: Velocity – PS3

Split/Second is an arcade racer, very much in the same vein as the Burnout Series. If you’re looking for a serious sim, tweaking the suspension for that extra 100th of a second off your lap time, you out of luck! Split/Second is very much over the top action. The game itself is based on a [...]

REVIEW: Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker

Action games often pose problems for handheld developers. The standards for visuals and controls are a bit more stringent than they are for other genres and those are the two areas in which handhelds are inferior to consoles. Still, Kojima Production manages to dig deep with Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker and get more out [...]

REVIEW: Modnation Racers – PS3

Do you remember when you were a little kid and your mam would take you to McDonald’s, (if you were a fat little kid like me) and you would get a happy meal. The food came and went, but your real concern was about the toys. If you continue to think back, generally these toys [...]
