2012: The year Nintendo 3DS came of age
We’ve all got a soft spot for Nintendo, which is why it pains us to admit that the company’s much-hyped Nintendo 3DS handheld console didn’t exactly have the most encouraging of starts more than 18 months ago. Sales were sluggish and it took a massive price drop from Ninty to kickstart the system’s fortunes. But after a bumpy beginning the handheld is finally hitting its stride. Itâ...
Read moreZombiU review
ZombiU is a curious entry in the Nintendo Wii U launch line-up. Sitting awkwardly alongside New Super Mario Bros. U and Nintendo Land, this gore-filled survival horror is about as far away from being a traditional Nintendo title as you could possibly get, yet in an ironic twist it’s arguably the game which illustrates best what this new console is all about. Is ZombiU worth picking over …

New Super Mario Bros U review
Nintendo hasn’t launched a console with a brand-new Mario game since Super Mario 64 on the N64 a decade and a half ago, so it’s easy to see why there’s such a groundswell of hype surrounding the Italian plumber’s latest outing, New Super Mario Bros U. Does it live up to the intense expectation and is it a worthy launch title for the Wii U? Let’s head down the green pipe to find ou…

Read moreCall of Duty: Black Ops 2 review
Call of Duty is unquestionably the biggest home console game franchise on the face of the planet. Each instalment breaks fresh records and destroys challengers such as EA’s Medal of Honor in terms of earnings. Of course, as we all know, popularity and overall quality sometimes don’t go hand-in-hand, and sooner or later Activision’s monstrous cash cow is going to come a cropper. Is tha…

Is this the game to pick up when you buy a Wii U?
After having hands on with various Wii U launch titles over the past few weeks we’re pretty excited for the Wii U to hit stores at the end of the month. And there’s one game that we’ve been particularly excited about since it was first announced earlier this year. And that game is ZombiU – it’s a firm stamp of Nintendo’s plans to win over core gamers with new and original gaming exper…

Paper Mario: Sticker Star review
After a somewhat bumpy start, the Nintendo 3DS is really beginning to find its feet. Selling like nobody’s business in its native Japan – thanks largely to a steady stream of quality handheld releases which genuinely offer something different to what we’re currently playing on our home consoles (take note, PlayStation Vita) – the system continues to pump out the hits. On paper, Paper Ma…
Read moreHalo 4 review
Halo 4. It’s hard to believe that it’s been five years since the last full Halo game with the iconic Master Chief in the hotseat, but it has: and that makes 343 Industries’ challenge all the more difficult. It’s been charged with making the first Halo game since creator Bungie decided to move onto pastures new, and given Halo is the reason many people buy an Xbox in the first place,...
Read moreNeed For Speed: Most Wanted review
Having successfully wrestled Criterion away from its beloved Burnout series, EA has tasked the developer with reinventing its commercially popular (but often critically panned) Need For Speed franchise. 2010’s NFS: Hot Pursuit was a triumph, and this year we’ve been treated to a debris-strewn reimagining of Need For Speed: Most Wanted. Does it match the glory of its spiritual predecesso…
