Resident Evil Revelations Nintendo 3DS Review
8th March 2012 - The unusual level for entry in the Resident Evil series is to accept that its complicated and labyrinthine narrative isn't meant to be taken seriously and should be considered an excuse to showcase fighting mutated monsters. At one point, before I officially began writing for...
The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword Nintendo Wii Review

Super Mario 3D Land Nintendo 3DS Review
17th November 2011 - Super Mario 3D Land is Nintendo's first original title for their new handheld, the 3DS, which has been in desperate need of some new blood. After its first initial months of having its releases being either remakes of popular games from Nintendo's history, or ports of...
The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time 3D - Nintendo 3DS Review
26th June 2011 - The launch of Nintendo's newest handheld, the 3DS, has had a very shaky first couple of weeks. With no major first-party software from the Big N and a price tag that wouldn't look out of place on a current generation console bundle, it seemed as if the 3DS would have nothing...
Donkey Kong Country Returns Wii Review

Disney Epic Mickey Wii Review
12th December 2010 - I’ve never been a fan of Disney. Not of the classic range of kids cartoons and especially not of the new-age Disney range of teeny shows about pop stars, presidents and witches. They simply don’t appeal to me. But one cannot deny the cultural impact of the Disney greats;...
GoldenEye 007 Wii Review
17th November 2010 - Let me get this out in the open, when they announced they were making GoldenEye I danced the jig in my lounge room and celebrated like it was 1997, I imagined sleepless nights of playing against old roommates and friends. Yes I am a fan boy. I love GoldenEye and everything it...
Sid Meier’s Pirates! Wii Review
23rd October 2010 - I was happy when I was asked to review this game. I have grown up as a fan of pirates. In fact I have been a fan of all of Sid Meier’s games. I first played pirates on the Commodore 64. Pirates was first released in 1987. The game has evolved quite a bit...

12th December 2009 - It’s been over 20 years since we first experienced the phenomenon that is; Super Mario Bros. And back in the day, the game was a groundbreaking, untouchable experience that revolutionised gaming forever. So in this day and age, when playing with thousands of other players in...
Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Winter Games Wii Review
10th November 2009 - Cast your mind back to the early 1990’s where Nintendo and Sega were going head to head in the battle for the consumer dollar with their respective consoles and with their franchise characters, Mario (Nintendo) and Sonic the Hedgehog (Sega). Who would have thought back then...
