Guns and Swords, Cowboys and Samurai, and old western town with electronics, diesel and computers??? Confused yet - I was...
The story behind Red Steel 2 is vastly different from the first Red steel (or so I have read - as I didn't play Red Steel) where the location was in the blustering Metropolis of Tokyo, Red Steel 2 takes place in a semi-futuristic Asian inspired Western and is a fast paced first person shooter with a twist - the up close and personal feel of the Katana. Firing up Red...
Review: Left 4 Dead 2 – The Passing
As many of you Feeders know, I've been itching to get more content added to this game as it's something I play for many hours a week and the current batch of levels were getting to me. After delays and much teasing by Valve, this morning brought to us the latest DLC for the franchise titled: The Passing.
As we all know, The Passing was to feature 3 of the 4 dead survivors from the original game and they sort of "pass the torch" to the new folks. I won't give away who the dead survivor is;...

Once she arrives at the house, she finds that no one is home and naturally, she sets forth determined to investigate this suspect’s house.

My first exposure to the God of War franchise was when Sony released the re-mastered God of War Collection (God of War 1 & God of War 2) on 1 blu-ray disc including trophies. It was a great first exposure to the characters, story and game play. We all remember the ending of God of War 2 where Kratos was on the back of the Titans while they scaled Mount Olympus in search of Zeus and looking for Revenge. This means one thing and one thing only it’s March and Kratos our beloved God of W...
Review – Lunar: Silver Star Harmony
Role Playing games have certainly changed in the last few years with increasingly complex (in some cases confusing) stories, stunning graphics, moral decisions and while this is good, I still feel that they’re missing some of the emotion that was synonymous with RPGs and the stories they presented.
Enter Lunar: Silver Star Harmony, the remake to a remake which originally debuted on the Sega CD and was then ported with updated graphics and audio on the PSOne. One of my most beloved Sega CD...

Guest Review: Alan Carr
I started playing Academy of Champions for the Wii as a skeptic. I am a diehard sports video game enthusiast and this looked from the packaging as a kids game that just couldn’t live up to the more series soccer (football) titles like Pro Evolution Soccer and FIFA.
And to be honest, Academy of Champions isn’t a title for the sports purest. But if you like a good story line and fun sports play then Academy of Champions is a title you should consider.

Review: Heavy Rain
Sony sure has been on a bit of a tear lately with hit after hit draining our bank accounts and limiting our time spent doing other things. Does their streak continue with Heavy Rain? Read on to see what I thought and rest assured, I’ve chosen my words carefully to avoid any plotline reveals.
The concept of Heavy Rain has been around for a long time coming. Back in 2006, Quantic Dream displayed a technology demo on non final PS3 development hardware displaying a virtual actor who displayed a...
Review – MAG
It’s no secret that I loves me some online shooters especially the ones that require some form of cooperation and coordination. Coupled with the promise of 256 player death matches this was a must buy for me. Now that I’ve had some time to really sink my teeth into this game, it’s time to talk about it.
When I first heard about MAG I thought “Wow. 256 player matches? Is that even possible to do properly yet?” I’m happy to report that it is indeed possible and it’s every bit the ...
