Are current FPS trends ruining PC gaming?
21 November 2007 – Category: Gaming
With a large amount of first person shooters reaching stores around the world for the Winter sales, I can’t help but think that the vast majority of the current fps games are generic and all feel roughly the same. By genre they should be similar but they all seem to have that same soft of [...]
Fifa 2008 – The woes continue
4 November 2007 – Category: Gaming
As well as the previous problems with Fifa 2008, the game continues to piss me off as I try to play it a bit more.
I tried, and that’s that. The game is not accurate at all and is inconsistent to say the least. The game seems to randomly decide whether players run through each [...]
Timeshift is a science fiction first person shooter for PC, Playstation 3 and Xbox 360. The game has already been released for PC and Xbox but the release for Playstation 3 is scheduled for December.
Timeshift is not completely revolutionary but it is somewhat different to a lot of the generic FPS’s that have been coming [...]
Need For Speed: Pro Street Demo Preview – PC vs Xbox 360
3 November 2007 – Category: Gaming
I have played the demo on both the Xbox 360 and the PC and without a doubt in my mind the Xbox 360 version is a hell of a lot better.
FIFA 08 – Dear O Dear
28 October 2007 – Category: Gaming
This is not a review as I haven’t played any of the other recent FIFA titles or played any Pro Evolution Soccer either. This is more of my nightmare playing FIFA 08.
The list pretty much grows everytime I play it, and I guess I should stop playing it but I played for it so I [...]

Right, this is my first review so I will type it up how I like to read reviews. If you don’t care about all the minor details skip to the end for my conclusive opinion.
Crysis Demo Fiasco
26 October 2007 – Category: Gaming
Well EA know how to screw with people don’t they.
The long awaited demo for Crysis was set to be released today with no information saying otherwise.
Many are aware that the demo was due out on the 26th September but was held back a month, with no reason given. There were beta releases through EA [...]
Portal is a new extremely innotive game that was released with the Orange Box from Valve. I must say it is a very good game to play. I first played most of it through myself then later watching 2 of my drunk friends try to manuever around the game with which they had [...]
Public beta releases
24 October 2007 – Category: Gaming
It seems to me that a lot of Developers/Publishers are releasing beta’s of their games before the demo to the public. For Publishers like EA this seems very strange as most of the games they release are buggy as hell anyway and that is after private beta and demo release.
It would seem as though [...]
