I tried Devil May Cry when I finally picked up a PS2 around 2005. Great fun until the first battle with Phantom (yes, that early), at which point I broke against his stony hide like weak sauce on rocks. To my shame, I never did beat him and haven't played 2 or 3 either. Thankfully the HD Collection ...

James gifted me and some others FTL: Faster Than Light. He's lovely like that. I'm only sorry that as I'm unemployed right now I can't afford to buy anyone else (or myself) anything (that categorically isn't a hint btw, just the facts; I start my new life as a professional games writer on January 8...

Jan - 999: Nine Hours, Nine Persons, Nine Doors (DS) "Completed" it once in 2010 but finally got around to getting all endings to set me up for the sequel. Glad to say the zero escape series may soon be joining the top tier of my game collection soon. I got this for Christmas and can't wa...

No idea I'm afraid, mate. Obviously I didn't come on here to reply with a useless statement like that one though. I'd recommend speaking to Brad Gallaway on Twitter; I seem to remember he reviewed it for Game Critics and is sure to give you a decent idea of whether it's worth your time. Apologies to...

Obviously I had been playing this before the bells rang 2013 in, but I finished it this morning. We're off on another year, folks!

Boss battles in God Of War; awesome. Boss battles in Deus Ex Human Revolution; excruciating. In fact I've had to quit DX:HR simply because I cannot beat a boss. :( They made a huge mistake out-sourcing those boss battles. Admitted as much themselves. So strange. Not gotten to one yet but heard many...

My Far Cry 3 review will be going up sometime soon. Suffice to say that I'm of a similar mind to Josh. The gameplay and open world are excellent, but the story leaves a lot to be desired. It's a shame really as there's enough promise to have done something really interesting, but the pacing is too p...

Day Three starts in a smidge over 90 minutes. The story so far...

I'm all over the place re. 2012 at the moment. In the past week I've veered from 'worst year of this generation' to 'actually pretty impressive'. I'll settle down to write a year in review article and let the writing lead me to whatever conclusion it will. After that I'll try to organise a top 5 lis...

I know we have a 'Videogame Deals' thread, but I wanted to keep this separate for our confessions of a Steam Sale.

Anyone not yet aware of it should take a look at the Humble THQ Bundle ( http://www.humblebundle.com/ ). There are several excellent games are in the core bundle, and Saints Row: The Third is the bonus game if you pay above average for the bundle. Soundtracks for some of the games are also included....

Would the 360 version of Blood Money be the best one to get (on console, at least). Don't think it was released on PS3 was it? You're absolutely right that it is currently only available on PC (incl. Steam), PS2, Xbox and Xbox 360. The 360 version is excellent and the controls have been fitted to a...
