Microsoft Project Natal

Microsoft Project Natal review

By Martin Williams

Microsoft's Project Natal is a prototype immersive gaming system, and we've tried it out.

Natal is promised for next year but there's no word on when it will be out or the system's price. But Microsoft Project Natal is one technology gamers will want to keep an eye on.

Heroes Over Europe

Heroes Over Europe review

By Matt Cabral

In the vein of Blazing Angels and Battlestations, Heroes Over Europe takes to the skies as an incredibly fun, arcade-style (dog) flight simulation.

The solid combat and engaging visuals might not be enough to recruit new fans and the emphasis on arcade-action means serious simulator fans will want to stick to their modded flight sticks, but Heroes offers enough to please wannabe pilots who just ...

Guerrilla

We've fallen madly in love with Red Faction: Guerrilla - loaded with all of the content from the incendiary original release, not to mention some exemplary PC exclusives, Volition has struck gold with the definitive edition of the most explosive title ...

The PC version of Red Faction: Guerrilla is a blast from start to finish, and the amount of extra content packed into it is well worth the price of admission. It may not be revolutionary, and it may not be perfect, but Guerrilla is still an incredibly ...

Guitar Hero 5

Guitar Hero 5 review

By Will Herring

The Guitar Hero franchise has been a forerunner in the virtual music genre since 2005, but there's no denying that the series has lost some of its lustre over the years. Can Guitar Hero 5 revive things?

Guitar Hero has been around forever and honestly, we were starting to get a little tired of the formula. But after seeing Guitar Hero 5 in action, I have to say that I'm not quite ready to give up my plastic instruments yet. With a wide selection of ...

Arkham Asylum

Batman: Arkham Asylum review

By Cameron Lewis

Batman: Arkham Asylum is a game that crawls inside your head and rearranges the furniture.

Finally, a Batman game worthy of the taking on the mantle. It's been a long time coming but they really hit one out of the park here. Stylish and wonderfully executed, Batman: Arkham Asylum is a visual marvel. Some of the battles got a bit repetitive ...

Wolfenstein

Wolfenstein review

By Tae Kim

Wolfenstein is a standard run-and-gun FPS (first person shooter) with an occult bent but it's a good diversion that keeps you entertained.

Madden NFL 10

Madden NFL 10 review

By Mitchell Dyer

Year after year the Madden American Football games franchise catches flak for recycling previous content into a repackaged roster update. Madden NFL 10 makes a concerted effort to change that perception with a suite of changes but don't freak out: ...

But even with the iffy AI and the unrealistic number of interceptions, Madden 10 is still a deeply involving experience. It's also evolved away from previous Madden installments, focusing your attention on actually performing on the field and making ...

The Rise of Cobra

Another summer movie, another video game tie-in. A simplistic action-packed escapade through and through, G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra never quite amounts to much more than "just another shooter".

While I wasn't expecting too much from G.I. Joe as a whole, I walked away with the impression that, while it wasn't absolutely horrible, it really didn't leave much of a lasting impression either. I love mindless shoot-em-up gameplay as much as the ...

EA Sports Active

EA Sports Active review

By Dave Rudden

EA Sports Active is a collection of keep fit games for the Nintendo Wii that will give Nintendo Wii Fit a run for its money.

As a long-time Wii Fit user, it was going to take some serious effort to knock that game out of my fitness regimen. EA Sports Active, however, was up to the task, providing better exercises with an excellent user interface. I've been using EA Sports ...
