The 2D shooter used to be a favourite genre of mine. Who could forget classics such as Commander Keen, Duke Nukem, Turrican or Contra? These are games that, even now, are fun to come back to time and time again and feature a level of instant gratification rarely found in

Some of the readers on this site will be too young to remember Sonic's glory days. Imagine that. Only being familiar with 3D Sonic games and not playing the occasionally brilliant handheld games. Misty eyed gamers, or those that plain missed out now have the opportunity to play

Red Alert 3 as an XBLA game? Surely this will be a very simplified version of the game, or maybe even a completely different style of game using the Red Alert franchise? Red Alert mini-games perhaps? To my surprise, Commander's Challenge is a full, stand alone expansion to

I’m always slightly shocked when I come across something really silly in a game with otherwise serious production values - after all, the game industry is big business, with massive budgets poured into spangly titles. Are developers really going to put budget into enabling a really good belch for

It really seems like less than a month has gone by since I first got the chance to first-hand; but here we are already in November, and the game at last has been released commercially. If you missed the earlier article - which got into the detailed aspects of the
