Sorry Sliders tasks players with slamming (by sliding) their little token things into other little token things in an attempt to score points based on the position their sliders end up in at the end of a round. Each round gives the player four slider tokens to slide down their arm of a giant “plus”…

Minesweeper Flags is a spruced up port of the Windows classic – if you can call it that. It takes the explosive gameplay and adds a new single player mode and multiplayer support with Xbox Live and local games with up to four friends. The single player mode is divided into classic (the original version…

Ever since I saw the electronic version of Battleship, I wanted it. Until now though, simple pen and paper have sufficed. Battleship has hit XBLA and it’s exactly how you would expect it to be. For anyone that didn’t pass a few maths classes misusing grid paper, each player places the agreed amount of ships…

When I first downloaded ‘Splosion Man’ I didn’t really know what to expect. Well, I knew you played a dude who exploded, but surely there’s more to it than that? Settling down into the first level, I started pressing buttons to familiarise myself with the controls. A button, explode. B button, explode. X button, explode.…

You soon will…

One good thing about writing game reviews is that you can’t help but give a game a second chance. If I had played the demo of Ion Assault, I would have probably played it for five minutes before passing it over. My first impressions of this game were completely wrong. At a glance, it would…

The Warriors was a classic 70’s movie, well worth a watch today if you can track it down. The story goes something like this – a city, overrun with gang violence, is the backdrop for the story of a particular gang (the titular Warriors) and the evolving situation they find themselves in. Hilarity ensues, with…

The original 1942 video game was a vertically scrolling shoot ’em up released by Capcom for arcade parlours back in 1984. Since then, it has undergone a goulash of remakes and appeared on early living-room consoles such as the Amstrad and the Commodore 64. Set over the Pacific during World War II, the game was…
