Uncharted 2: Among Thieves Playstation 3 Review
Any game that is exclusive to one console has a lot of pressure on it to perform well, as it is often seen as flagship software. Certainly when Naughty Dog released Uncharted: Drakes Fortune exclusively on PS3 back in 2007, it was seen as one of the best examples of the hardware's capability. I...

Sacred 2: Fallen Angel Playstation 3 Review
It's been a while since I've ventured into the world of action RPG's (aka “hack and slash”). Not being a big PC gamer, quality offerings have been few and far between. I have very fond memories of Baldur's Gate 2 on the PS2, where I spent dozens of hours with a mate hacking and looting away, and...
Red Faction: Guerrilla Playstation 3 Review
Red Faction originally came to prominence as a top quality FPS on the PS2 back in 2001. It set a precedent as one of the more established shooters on the old system. Since then, there have been numerous additions to the series but in all honesty, they haven’t been able to maintain the lofty...

UFC 2009 Undisputed Playstation 3 Review
The rapid rise of MMA (Mixed Martial Arts) across the globe has seen it become one of the world’s most popular and fastest growing sports in recent times. For those of you who don’t know, MMA is a full contact, no holds barred, caged fighting extravaganza. Think WWE Wrestling without the fake...
KILLZONE 2 PLAYSTATION 3 REVIEW
Killzone 2 was a game that was hugely anticipated long before it was even released. With the weight of expectation, the developers faced the daunting task of delivering a FPS that could live up to all the hype and possibly rival the highly regarded Halo series on the Xbox. Going into this review, I...
