The back of the box reads like a laundry list of PR cliches: evolved battle system. Immersive look and feel (whatever that means). Dramatic story. The fact is, Tales of Vesperia for the 360 needs none of these to add anything. The gameplay will speak for itself. RPG fans will

Bionic Commando is the long awaited follow up to NES title of the same name. Once again players jump into the bionic boots of Nathan "Rad" Spencer to swing around via his bionic arm, play with guns and throw cars at a giant mechanical worm... The story wrapping

Cellfactor: Psychokinetic Wars is the sequel to freeware PC title Cellfactor: Revolution. If you have played any other death match-oriented titles, such as Quake Live or Unreal Tournament 3, you’re in familiar territory; there’s no story to speak of and it plays out like a sports title. The

The Wolfenstein franchise has a long and bloody history or killing Nazis. The later games have also been rife with social commentary, moral dilemmas, and much more heartstring tugging than a game about killing Nazis should have. Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus is no exception. The game follows five months

Ninjas. Pirates. Lumberjacks. Up until a couple of days ago I was pretty sure that these were the three most manliness professionals around (in ascending order of manliness).

Right here is the platformer as it's meant to be played, by the first rulers of the side scroller, and starring their very own golden boy. New Super Mario Bros for the Wii is a game that takes all the elements of the true classics, adds a few

If you’re going to make a Tennis game for consoles, now is as good a time as ever to release it, squeezed in between the two mid-year grand slams. Sega have certainly realised this by producing another iteration of their ever popular tennis franchise, Virtua Tennis 2009. One of

Sniper: Ghost Warrior 3 is an open-world, first-person tactical shooter. It’s the third entry in the Sniper: Ghost Warrior series (the "3" is the clue) and the first I’ve played. It’s the first I’ve played because I don’t snipe. Slow-motion bullet cams and

Advanced Warfare dropped in 2014, it took Call of Duty in a new direction. Snappy lateral dashes, and an emphasis on verticality remapped the series’ DNA for years to come. But – as with anything – fatigue set in. Players longed for simpler gameplay, and a return to more traditional movement. The

Arguably only the imminent release of Halo 4 has had more attention and anticipation than AC3 has. So there was pretty much a Hunger Games-esque death match at the Gameskeys.net highrise offices to win the right to review this game. It wasn’t pretty, but I won. I’m

Garou, Mark of the Wolves, for the uninitiated, is the ninth game in the Fatal Fury fighting game series. Originally for the Neo*Geo arcade / home console system, Garou was ported to Sega's Dreamcast system in 2001 where it was critically acclaimed - some lauding it as the

Toy Story 3 (the movie) looks promising, as all Pixar movies tend to. But Toy Story 3 (the game) was cursed from its outset with being two things: a game for kids, and an adaptation. And we all know how both of those things turn out, don't we?
