Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning Review (360)

Pick & Mix counters are the Holy Grail of sweetie goodness as far as I’m concerned, challenged only by “All You Can Eat” buffets for the title of most pleasurable food related experience.

Syndicate Hands-On Preview – Co-op Mode

The Syndicate demo will be out for Xbox Live Gold users on 31st Jan (tomorrow) and PSN on 1st Feb. EA gave us a hands-on preview with the co-op mode. It’s good. Real good.

Rage Review (PS3)

A couple of years ago, I asked id Software’s Creative Director Tim Willits why they were calling their new game “Rage”. He replied that it was simply in keeping with their previous titles, such as Doom and Quake. This is not the response that I was expecting.
