HL2: Empires mod review
SteamFriends :: Tuesday, December 04, 2007
Empires is a revolutionary mod for Half-Life 2. It combines the genres of first-person shooter and real-time strategy. It’s release was yesterday the 30th of November, and while the rest of the Empires community was waiting in anticipation for that countdown to reach zero, Steamfriends had been invited for a testplay. So what do we think?
FEAR Perseus Mandate review
YouGamers :: Tuesday, December 04, 2007
“Plot-wise the game is paper thin: there isn’t even a convoluted storyline that you can take masochistic pleasure in unraveling and dissecting all its folds and flaws – it’s all just fancy sounding words like Perseus and Synchronicity strung together to make you think there’s some grand scheme or mystery behind all the gunplay. There isn’t, just one cliché after another. There’s an Evil Corporation conducting Bad Experiments and producing Paranormal Phenomena. Don’t expect to have any better idea of what’s really going on by the end of the game. Of course, ghosts and mecha make appearances in the game, but that’s to be expected, right?”
Tony Hawk’s Proving Ground Xbox 360 Review
Gamepyre :: Tuesday, December 04, 2007
All in all, Tony Hawk Proving Ground is just an average game. I’ve always been a fan of the series, but this one just doesn’t deliver like some of the older titles do. Sure they added a lot of new stuff, but not all of it was implemented well. You can place ramps and such throughout the streets now, but the editor they give you is extremely twitchy. They seem to have polished ideas that were added in Project 8, hopefully by the next in the series they’ll get the new additions worked out. Problems aside this is a pretty fun game, just don’t expect anything groundbreaking.
Mario and Sonic At The Olympic Games (Wii)
Driver Heaven :: Monday, December 03, 2007
We’ve seen plenty of mini-game conglomerates on the Wii ranging from creative titles like WarioWare: Smooth Moves to the more gimmicky releases like Wii Play. Instead of focusing on depth, these games all advertise a pick-up-and-play value that should be appealing to gamers of all skill levels. While Mario and Sonic at the Olympic Games hoped to set the standard for what a mini-game title should be like, once you get past the gratuitous arm-flailing events there isn’t a whole lot to get excited about.

Company Of Heroes Opposing Fronts (PC Expansion)
Driver Heaven :: Monday, December 03, 2007
Ah, the expansion pack. Time was, you would rush out to your local game emporium to pick up an extra chunk of your favourite game, only to find you’d bought a couple of poorly-executed extra missions and a single new character/weapon/background texture. Thankfully, these days we ask for a little bit more for our hard-earned cash. Relic have been excelling themselves of late, not only producing varied expansion packs for Dawn of War, but also making them stand-alone so that any gamer new to the series can get stuck in, without having to shell out for the original. So, how does Company of Heroes:Opposing Fronts (or COH:OF as I shall lazily call it) stack up?
