| Play Kingdoms of Amalur Demo, get free Mass Effect 3 stuff (and vice versa) | 
Geoffrey Tim - January 12th, 2012 | Next week, the demo for 38 Studios’ debut game, the intriguing open-world action adventure RPG Kingdoms of Amalur: The Reckoning goes live. It’s easily one of my most anticipated titles for this year, combining the open world exploration of the Elder Scrolls, the aesthetic of Fable and the combat of a fighting game. I really think it could be this year’s sleeper hit. If you’re not quite as convinced, there’s the demo, which ... [»] |

| Mario Kart 7 review – A work of Kart | 
Geoffrey Tim - December 6th, 2011 | It’s easy to say that if you’ve played one Mario Kart, you’ve played them all. Though some iterations of the game have been a little more daring than others, for the most part that’s true. Mario Kart is the the same as it ever was; 3 tight laps around a colourfully complex courses with the multiple branching paths, with an angry mushroom firing shells behind ... [»] |

| Rayman Origins Review – Sleep stifling sillyness | 
Garth Holden - December 2nd, 2011 | Jumping jabberwocky! Galloping gunwhales and lumbering Lums! Don't understand any of this? No fear, it hardly makes any sense to me either!
Rayman Origins brings the ridiculous world of Rayman to nonsensical life in beautifully bubbly HD graphics.Rayman and his crew are besieged by the darktoons after their sonorous snoring causes a granny in the Land of the Livid Dead to go into a frothy frenzy. Now the Bubble Dreamer has gone ... [»] |

| Still loving the Still Alive song | 
Gavin Mannion - November 30th, 2011 | It doesn’t really matter how often I hear it the Still Alive song from the original Portal is probably one of my top gaming songs of all time if not the very top.
And this rendition is slightly different because it’s being entirely played with the sounds of defunct floppy (stiffy) drives.Yes ... [»] |

| Uncharted 3 gunplay patch coming – and why Naughty Dog rocks | 
Geoffrey Tim - November 22nd, 2011 | Uncharted 3 is a great game. It’s a thrill-a-minute action blockbuster rollecoaster ride of fantastic set-pieces, wonderful platforming and…pretty awful shooting sections. For some reason, the gunplay got a makeover between Uncharted 2 and 3 - and many people are just not happy about it. Naughty Dog’s confirmed it’ll be patching the game soon, with a toggle to fix ...

| Super Mario 3D Land review – Plumber’s bum | 
Geoffrey Tim - November 21st, 2011 | Nintendo’s flagship 3DS has been beset with sales problems. though anticipation for the device was exceedingly high, it’s found itself flustered at retail, often not even able to stand up to the performance of Sony’s now ancient PSP. Though the device dropped in price - by a staggering 40% in some regions - giving it a bit of a momentum boost, what it really needs is ... [»] |

| A real life Minecraft wedding proposal | 
Gavin Mannion - November 21st, 2011 | So we saw our own local loon romantic try an over the top videogame proposal at Rage this year that didn’t end very well at all but that’s not always the case.
Take for example this intrepid soul who managed to get the organisers of a Minecraft convention and the developer himself, ... [»] |

Geoffrey Tim - November 15th, 2011 | It gets released in the US today, but the rest of us have to wait until Friday to enjoy just about the craziest, open world game ever conceived; Saint’s Row The Third. While the recent GTA V announcement trailer’s gotten gamers in a frenzy, it’s Saint’s Row and its irreverence where I’ll be getting my sandbox kicks.

| Jaw-droppingly incredible Diablo III cinematic | 
Geoffrey Tim - October 24th, 2011 | I’ll admit - at the risk of being the recipient of a hurled shoe to the face - that I’m not all that much of a Diablo fan. There’s just way, way too much clicking. How do you move? By clicking. How do you pick up that shiny new loot? Yeah, more clicking. So how about combat, then? No prizes for guessing even ... [»] |
