Wait? There’s a sequel to Cannon Fodder?

 - February 3rd, 2012
If you played games in the 90’s, you’ll undoubtedly remember Cannon Fodder, the satirical, darkly humourous squad-based war game from the guys who made Sensible Soccer. It was way, way too much fun - hell, its tag-line was even ""War has never been so much fun." It was originally released in 1993 for just about every system available then, with a sequel released in 1994. And that was it. The series has been dead since. ... [»]

You might also not know that an egg was one the most beloved video game characters in the late 80s and early 90s. If you’re an old-school gamer who had a Sinclair ZX Spectrum, Amstrad, Amiga or Commodore 64, you’ll undoubtedly remember Dizzy, ... [»]

It’s been a year since Codemaster’s released the first installment of their new adrenaline-fueled Formula One franchise and with their goal of annual releases, we will start looking at it just like FIFA or Madden before too long.

Lewis Hamilton, Kovalainen and Sutil Play F1 2010 On Xbox Live

 - September 15th, 2011
Formula One drivers have it all, right? Youth, money, fame, women, yachts, sport scars and pretty much whatever the heck they want… but don’t let that fool you into thinking they don’t like the same things we like as well. BBC recently ran a segment during the Formula One weekend at Monza with both Lewis Hamilton and his brother Nick playing some F1 ... [»]

Exclusive hands on with F1 2011

On Sunday I was sitting on my couch with a beer watching the Grand Prix and complaining to my brother-in-law about how badly Hamilton was driving and how could he not see Kobayashi before taking himself out of the race. Obviously I could do better and I really wish I had been given the chance… then not 2 days later F1 2011 lands on my door and it’s my turn ... [»]

Bodycount Hands-on Preview – Let the bodies hit the flooooooooor

 - August 8th, 2011
Later this year, Battlefield 3 and its counter-part in Modern Warfare 3 will largely fill our quota of serious combat shooters. We’ve seen a fair resurgence in more arcadey shooters well, with the fairly successful Bulletstorm, a new Serious Sam and PC exclusive Hard Reset coming later this year.None of them though, bring the weapon priority, that awesome heavy-hitting feeling of firing a gun from last generation’s fantastic “Black” that ...

Bodycount looks like a real blast to play

 - July 20th, 2011
Cast your memories back to 2006, and you might just remember a rather nifty little FPS game called Black, that was developed by the lads behind the Burnout games, Criterion Studios. Having begun to master the subtleties of massive explosions and outrageous collateral damage, they took this ethos and injected it into Black, creating one of the most destructive FPS games available at the time. And now, we ... [»]

DiRT 3 Review – As Easy As One, Two, Tree

Codemasters have brought the DiRT franchise back for a third round of rally, racing, off-road and not-so-off-road action after moving away from the original rally-centric Colin McRae series. While the first DiRT was a success, the driving mechanics were deeply flawed to the point that the developers spoke of large amounts of feedback from fans about the cars' strange grippy handling and lack ...
