Smash N Survive (PSN) Review
9th March 2012 - When I sat down to review Version2Games’ PSN downloadable Car Combat game Smash ‘N’ Survive, I simply was not prepared to partake in the worst game I have played in a long while. Smash ‘N’ Survive could easily fit into the car combat category alongside Twisted Metal, BLUR,...
Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning Playstation 3 Review
8th March 2012 - The last action RPG I really got stuck into was Dragon Age 2 and it left me a little disappointed. It was no Dragon Age: Origins, sure the fighting was faster paced and more action orientated but it felt an overall more shallow experience. When I saw the first promo for...
Final Fantasy XIII-2 Playstation 3 Review
28th February 2012 - It’s been almost two years since Final Fantasy XIII was released here in Oz. It was surrounded with some controversy when it launch internationally as it was the first cross platform Final Fantasy much to the chagrin of Playstation fanboys. I must admit I was a little...
Twisted Metal Playstation 3 Review
28th February 2012 - Back in 1995, David Jaffe made a game called Twisted Metal on the original Playstation, the first game of its kind revolving around cars blowing each other to pieces. Rumor has it that when Jaffe first concieved the idea for the game, it was while being stuck in a major...
Medieval Moves Playstation 3 Review
11th December 2011 - The PlayStation Move is yet to see a killer title come out that innovatively utilises the technology in a true gamers’ game. By this I mean it isn’t just an add-on that most people will never use (for example to aim in games like Resistance and Killzone). Nor is it part of...
Uncharted 3: Drake’s Deception Playstation 3 Review
11th December 2011 - The Uncharted series has impressed gamers around the world with its incredibly detailed graphics and lighting effects, spectacular environments and solid mix of platforming, puzzle solving and shooting. What has separated it though and made it really special are the...
Dark Souls Playstation 3 Review
20th October 2011 - Dark Souls is the spiritual successor to the cult sleeper Demon Souls (read our review HERE) which arrived on Aussie shores last year. Demon Souls was lauded around the world as a PS3 exclusive that broke the current trend by delivering a game truly designed for hard core...
Batman: Arkham City Playstation 3 Review
20th October 2011 - Two years ago, Rocksteady Studios made a huge splash with their first project, Batman Arkham Asylum, a game that was less an Action-Adventure Stealth game as much as it was a Batman Simulator. It was groundbreaking, entertaining, and one of the best games of 2009. Now, with...
The ICO and Shadow of Colossus Collection Playstation 3 Review
8th October 2011 - In 2001, a development team now known as Team ICO released a game on the Playstation 2 of the same name. It was a global success and hailed as one of gaming's first true contributions to high art and interactive storytelling. In 2005, the same team released Shadow of the...
Resistance 3 Playstation 3 Review
18th September 2011 - Resistance has unique sentiment for me and I suspect many other PS3 owners as it was one of my launch titles. It was fairly successful, being the first PS3 game to sell a million copies. The alternate 1950’s, first person shooter introduced us to the alien race the...
